Quadco’s new drum mulcher for use with 8-15 tonne excavators
Since our beginning as a small forestry equipment manufacturing shop in 1989, we’ve built our reputation on a single promise: to never compromise on quality or service. For us, that means listening to our customers and dealers to get their feedback on our products’ ability to withstand heavy applications on the job site – and adjusting our designs accordingly. That’s how the newest addition to our line of forestry mulchers was born. The brand new Quadco 32-inch Drum Mulcher (32QDM) pairs innovation with value to offer forestry professionals their new go-to, versatile solution for tree and brush clearing.
As the latest addition to Quadco’s line of rugged forestry mulching attachments, the 32QDM is surprisingly compact, without compromising on toughness. Built to run on 8-15 ton excavators, 32QDM takes productivity and ground material processing to the next level. Rather than offering a lateral tilt as a costly add-on feature, the 32QDM comes with a next-level 100-degree lateral tilt as the standard. This attachment also features a spiralized drum to help distribute material evenly over the cutters and serve as a bite limiter. The 32QDM is compatible with a variety of Quadco teeth and includes a fixed heel with replaceable bucket teeth for added productivity.
Like all Quadco attachments, 32QDM is built to stand the test of time and perform like new after years of heavy duty applications. Manufactured especially for professional contractors, 32QDM features a built-in universal boom adapter to provide equipment dealers and rental fleets with the flexibility they require to meet the needs of their clients. Changing carriers is as simple as replacing the pins and sleeves, saving you valuable time and money.
