Woodcracker C
The C tree shears are designed as a single-grip felling attachment for forestry operations. Ranging from 7ton to 40ton machined, there is a huge variety of cutting capacities and optional extras to choose from. Specifically for excavator mounting.
Multigrip-controller: equipped as standard.
The Multigrip-controller operates the closing and opening of the gripper and the cutting system. For a safe grip, the gripper closes first, then the cutting system closes.
Synchronously closing, powerful gripper with large opening width
Gripper throttle: The gripper opening speed is adjustable.
Four different mounting options: rigid mounting, cylinder slewing system (2×48°), endlessly rotatable Tiltator or Power-Tiltator.
Plug-and-play-system with ideal mounting angle. Attachable to standard excavators, only four hydraulic connections needed (including all options).
Large cutting volume. Sturdy, high-strength blade, which is impervious to dirt. Patented blade fastening.
Option: Accumulator as quick coupler QC: Used to work fast in weak wood and to bunch material. The accumulator can be removed easily via rapid change system to reduce the machine weight when working with strong trees.
Woodcracker® C comes with a large cutting volume to cut thick trunks or harvest several small trees and bunch them in one work step.
