Forestry Disc Mulcher

Our RDM technology transfers more power to the attachment, eliminating the need for expensive extra hardware.

RDM forestry mulcher owners report as much as 40% increases in their productivity. That is great for the land, good for your customer, and your bottom line!

Overview:

No extra power packs!

Rotary Disc Mulching (RDM) Technology is much more than a spinning disk with cutting teeth. The secret to this proprietary technology is the innovative design which transfers maximum power to the attachment using only the existing hydraulics of the carrier. This results in a mulching attachment that can handle thick undergrowth and trees up to 20 inches in diameter without binding or clogging.

Works fast and Efficient!

The RDM excavator mulchers are the most versatile, efficient and advanced forestry mulcher heads in the industry. Rotary Disc Mulcher (RDM) Technology is much more than a spinning disk with cutting teeth.

The secret to this proprietary technology is the innovative design which transfers maximum power to the attachment using only the existing hydraulics of the carrier. This results in a mulching attachment that can handle thick undergrowth and trees up to 8 inches in diameter without binding or clogging.

Features:

Steel mounting system is rugged allowing you to pick your excavator up and turn on a dime. We build the RDM excavator mulchers to match your current thumb and quick coupler.

Ease of Maintenance:

1. There are no belts, pulleys or sheaves.

2. Our systems are direct drive, which means that the power goes directly into a bearing box which transfers all the power to the cutting disc.

3. The bearings are oil bathed for continuous lubrication and cooling.

4. The drive shafts are heat treated and ground for precision fit.

5. We have a rubber safety coupler between the hydraulic motor and bearing box to protect from damage.

Performance:

You can mulch an overgrown road and restore it back to nearly new. This is the most versatile and advanced mulching attachment in the industry!

RDM excavator mulchers are designed to match the hydraulic motor to your carrier’s fluid flow, which ensures the best possible performance.

The RDM excavator mulchers are the only mulchers that feature a Digging Spade feature in the industry. This helps improve productivity by allowing the operator to dig and move material while having the mulcher attached to the excavator.

The unique reduction shroud design, the direct drive system and the 38” diameter 1 ¼” thick cutting disc carry the inertia through the cut and forces the material into the fixed cutting teeth. Material will be cut and pulled into the reduction shroud system resulting in a one step process.

The RDM Excavator mulchers allow the operator to see the cutting teeth as they engage with the material they are mulching; this allows the operators to avoid foreign materials that could be a potential safety hazard.

The ridged steel mounting system is so rugged that it allows you to pick your excavator up and turn on a dime. It also showcases our Digging Spade feature which is designed to load logs, pull out tree stumps and aids when moving the excavator. You can mulch an overgrown road and restore it back to nearly new. This is the most versatile and advanced mulching attachment in the industry!
