EK Chain Cutters
Chain cutters — reduce wear & tear on the excavator swing gear and save energy
- Minimal wear on excavator as the method of operation is similar to using the bucket i.e. eliminates need for swing motion
- Needs approx. 40 percent less energy than equivalent drum cutter without a chain between the drums
- Range of cutting widths available
- Fine grained cut material
- Low noise and vibration levels
- Works underwater without need for modifications
KEMROC’s patented chain cutters are engineered to provide unmatched precision in trenching, mining, and other demanding excavation tasks. These exclusive attachments, patented and designed specifically for KEMROC, are suitable for excavators ranging from 2 to 70 tons and capable of cutting materials with uniaxial compressive strengths up to 140 MPa. The EK Range chain cutters deliver superior performance with minimal wear on the excavator, significantly reducing energy consumption by up to 40% compared to conventional drum cutters. Whether operating in challenging environments like underwater or in urban areas where low vibration and noise are critical, KEMROC’s patented chain cutters excel, making them the go-to solution for professionals demanding the highest level of efficiency and precision.
