Master Trimmer MT Gentle 75 — Automated Leaf Trimmer for Fresh Harvest Processing
Best for: Small-to-medium growers who want professional trimming speed without crushing delicate plant material
Our thoughts
This is a proper workhorse for growers processing fresh harvests. The silicone finger system is the real difference here — you get automation and speed without the aggressive tumbling of larger commercial systems. Does the work of 15 people and won't batter your crop. One we recommend for anyone scaling up from manual trimming.
The Master Trimmer MT Gentle 75 is a semi-automatic leaf trimming machine designed for fresh plant material processing. It handles up to 25kg per hour using food-grade silicone fingers that rotate your crop across adjustable tempered steel blades — think of it as automation with a gentle touch. Built entirely in stainless steel, it bridges the gap between hand-trimming teams and heavy industrial tumblers, making professional output accessible without the space demands or price tag of larger systems.
How it compares
The MT Gentle 75 sits in a distinct middle ground in the trimming market.
-
vs. large tumbler systems: Faster processing, lower capital cost, better for delicate material, easier to convert between modes
-
vs. manual trimming: One machine replaces up to 15 people, consistent output, adjustable speed for different plant types
-
vs. dry-only trimmers: Optimised for fresh harvest (wet trimming), which preserves plant structure and minimises waste
In short: you're getting serious automation at a price point that makes sense for growing operations, not just industrial-scale facilities.
Usage guidance
Loading and operation
Separate your fresh plant material from heavy branches. Lift the top cover and load an even layer across the grid — don't pile or overfill. Close the lid and let it work. After roughly 45 seconds, open the outlet door and collect the trimmed material.
Speed adjustment
Built-in speed controller lets you slow or increase the silicone finger rotation based on plant type and density. Tighter, heavier material needs slower speeds; lighter, more delicate material can run faster.
Material type
Designed for fresh-harvested plant material only. Dry trimming will damage the silicone fingers and reduce cutting quality.
Conversion to manual mode
Swap the grid for the included safety grid (no tools needed) to convert to MT Standard 75 for manual-assisted operation. Useful if you want flexibility or need to transport the machine.

Our take
The MT Gentle 75 does something most trimmers don't: it delivers serious processing power without being brutal to your crop. The silicone finger system is the key — it's gentler than tumbler-style competition but faster and more precise than anything manual. For small-to-medium operations, it's a smart middle ground.
Stainless steel build means it'll handle regular cleaning and last. Convertible design gives you flexibility if your needs change. Worth picking up if you're at that stage where hand-trimming isn't scaling but you don't need an industrial beast.
