Fecon Introduces FMX28 Bull Hog Compact Excavator Mulcher

Fecon LLC, a leading global manufacturer of heavy-duty site preparation attachments and forestry accessories, recently debuted their latest FMX28 Bull Hog compact excavator mulcher attachment.

Capable of mulching overgrowth, underbrush and small trees, the FMX28 attachment offers a versatile solution for clearing property lines, pastureland, real estate lots, ditches, trails, fencerows and invasive species, and more. Paired with 3.5- to 8-ton excavators, the compact package makes it easy to access traditionally difficult-to-reach places with precision — making it a perfect fit for owner-operators, rental centers and right-ofway maintenance.

The excavator-mounted FMX28 allows for surgical precision in vegetation management, enabling the removal of a single tree in a group or even specific branches that need to be trimmed back from obstructions — an ability traditional skid-steer mounted mulching heads can’t offer. Unlike competitive units which are simply shrunk down from a larger design, the FMX28 features a design purposebuilt and optimized for standard flow excavators that are 3.5- to 5-tons and can operate with as little as 12 gpm, ensuring exceptional performance in demanding site clearing and mulching applications. With an overall width of 40 inches and a working width of 28 inches, the attachment mounts on excavators up to 8 tons, allowing a narrow mulching cut for precision vegetation removal. A variable displacement hydraulic motor optimizes rotor speed and torque for maximum production in small or larger materials.

“We were thrilled to showcase the FMX28 compact excavator mulching attachment for the first time at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2023,” said Mark Middendorf, Fecon’s executive vice president of sales. “Our portfolio of world-class forestry attachments are specifically designed to be purpose-built with the versatility and durability customers can count on to tackle virtually any site-clearing task with ease.”

The mulching head features 14 reversible knife tools on a bite-limiting split ring rotor. The rotor design protects the carrier and provides ease of use for even inexperienced operators by virtually eliminating the possibility of overloading the attachment. The fixed knife design ensures a consistently small chip size and effective management of all

CBI—a Terex brand of portable and stationary grinders, shredders, chippers, flail debarkers, and attachments for composting, forestry, biomass recovery, and woodwaste processing—gave customers the chance to see its 6800CT Horizontal Grinder up close at CONEXPO-CON/ AGG 2023. The 6800CT along with CBI’s experienced and knowledgeable team were situated on the Terex stand.

The CBI Magnum Force 6800CT Horizontal Grinder has been engineered to surpass every horizontal grinder that came before it. Improving on the 6800BT’s revolutionary design, the 6800CT has a 15 percent larger screening area, wrapping more than 190° around the rotor, allow-

Supported by a larger shaft and bearings, the engine powers the forged drum rotor through the toughest materials. The design of CBI’s offset helix rotor minimizes energy loss from each strike and distributes material evenly across the 24 hammers, requiring less power while outproducing the competition.

Built from a fully welded steel frame and reinforced heavy-duty weldments, this yellow monster processes land clearing debris, pallets, clean industrial waste, stumps, logs, mulch, bark, shingles, and whole trees as fast as it can be loaded, producing valuable end-products and giving operators command over realworld job deadlines.

Ensuring the best fuel economy and the lowest possible cost per ton, CBI’s user-friendly interface displays simplified information for controls and monitoring. Operators can adjust and save multiple groups of feed speeds, pressures, and automated control systems to guarantee the most efficient performance across a wide range of materials. Speed sensors have been added to the feed system for a continuous and efficient pace of grinding. Remote monitoring gives owners a detailed report of operating data, machine status, alarms, and key metrics. Users can be sent automated maintenance notices to stay proactive on service, reducing downtime and keeping the machine in peak running condition year after year.

George Wilcox, Sales and Marketing Director, CBI said, “Once land clearing and wood waste professionals switch to CBI grinders for their ultimate production, performance, and durability, they never look back. We firmly believe that our 6800CT is the best horizontal grinder on the market. Designed for superior performance across all phases of the operation, including machine maintenance, no other horizontal grinder in its weight class meets the production rates or low cost of ownership.” SP
