Overview

The MB-R800 is a 1 t drum cutter for 10–22 t excavators, with 10 000 Nm torque, a 1 015 mm cutting width and 200–300 L/min oil flow.

Double the torque

The MB-R800 doubles output torque to 10 000 Nm for hard rock and reinforced concrete. With a 1 015 mm width it is matched to 10–22 t excavators.

A drum cutter grinds rock, concrete or frozen ground with picks set on rotating drums, driven by a hydraulic motor from the excavator. It cuts precisely to a line with little vibration, where a breaker would shatter surrounding material.
