Description
Overview
Main benefits
Key features and technical advantages
Main applications
Technical specifications
- The EK 40 chain cutter is a continuous cutting attachment for mid-size excavators (5–11 t) that provides precise, low-impact trenching using a patented cutting chain system.
- It is intended for cutting soil, asphalt, concrete and soft to medium rock up to 30 MPa UCS, delivering controlled material removal with reduced vibration and noise compared with percussive breakers.
Main benefits
- Cutting depth up to 1,300 mm
- Cutting width: 500 mm
- Lower vibration and noise for work near structures and in urban areas
- High-torque performance for stable cutting in compact soils and cohesive rock
- Suitable for utilities, roadside works and renovation projects
Key features and technical advantages
- Patented continuous cutting chain replaces percussive methods to produce accurate trench geometry and uniform profiles
- High torque to maintain cutting progress without stalling and to reduce tool wear
- Wear-optimized chain and pick arrangement for even wear distribution and extended service life
- Hydraulically optimized for compatibility with modern mid-size excavators
Main applications
- Utility and infrastructure trenching (water, gas, electrical, fiber-optic)
- Asphalt and concrete cutting for repair and replacement preparation
- Selective excavation and renovation where precise material removal is required
- Trenching in soft to medium rock up to 30 MPa UCS (e.g., limestone, claystone, compacted soils)
