Forestry mulching heads with mobile hammers for skid steer

The Designed to mulch grass, bushes and branches between 5-6 cm diameter.

After developing a wide range of forest shredders for excavators and tractors, the RABAUD company expands its offering wth a model of a forest shredder on a compact loader, the XYLOR SK.
Its adaptation to a loader of 50 to 90 HP allows it to work in challenging conditions such as rugged terrain, difficult-to-access areas, or steep slopes over a width of 1.30 meters to 2 meters, depending on the model.
This skid-mounted forest shredder is equipped with mobile hammers, ideal for shredding rather airy vegetation such as grass, bushes, debris, shoots, and branches between 5 and 6 cm in diameter. Its hammers are arranged helically on the rotor, thereby limiting power peaks and preventing premature wear of the hammers.
For a finer shred, this skid-mounted forest brush cutter also has a line of counter-knives.
The Hydraulic Block Control (HBC) system of our forest shredders on loaders optimizes their performance and productivity by regulating the flow, limiting pressure, and enabling a gradual braking of the rotor.
Its wear-resistant steel skids, a cast iron motor protected by a robust housing, and its front protection by a chain curtain make these skid-mounted forest shredders highly robust machines.
