Fecon Inc.’s FMA8039 hydraulic powered milling attachment is rated at 260 to 550 hp (194 to 410 kW), to process soil, stumps and roots up to 20 in. (51 cm) below grade. A weight of approximately 11,000 lbs. (4,989 kg) (depending on options) keeps the attachment engaged as carbide tools cut through an 80 in. (203 cm) wide path of material.
The 8039 is ideally suited for treating land already cleared of standing vegetation, often through logging, mulching or traditional land clearing methods. Applications include pipeline construction, commercial tree farm construction and preparation planting, converting land into tillable acreage or land clearing for new construction.
A 39 by 80 in. (99 by 203 cm) large diameter rotor has a structural design and abrasion resistant steel for durability and performance across a wide range of soil conditions. Sixty-four carbide cutting tools provide a balance of performance, wear life and impact strength in sub-soil applications. Dual hydraulic motors deliver power to the belt-over-gear box driveline to slow the rotor speed, reduce abrasion, and multiply torque to power through material. The standard trap door can be used to help contain and direct material downward, or an optional compacting roller can smooth out and compact the finely milled material.
The FMA8039 milling attachment can be configured with custom mounts, hydraulic motors and belt ratios to fit many brands of track or wheeled carriers including Fecon’s FTX400 and FTX600 track carriers.
