Work flexibly with the GM 140 AFH-500 excavator-mounted trencher.

Flexibility is particularly important for milling work. Because the working conditions on site are not always perfect. Occasionally there are obstacles in the way or a trench is to be dug along an embankment or slope. In all these cases, it is helpful to use a milling machine that is as flexible as possible and can adapt to these different conditions. The GM 140 AFH-500 excavator-mounted trencher does just that. It offers the greatest possible range of movement in use and can be adapted to diverse ground and working conditions.

The technical data of GM 140 AFH-500 excavator-mounted trencher

The GM 140 AFH-500 excavator-mounted trencher operates with a hydraulic drive. This is extremely powerful, so that even complex work can be done well and quickly. With a dead weight of just 1,800 kg, the tiller is pleasantly light and can therefore be used by various excavators. However, the prerequisites for use are excavators from 15 tons, with 120-140 l/min and 250-300 bar. The assembly takes place by means of modern quick-change systems within the shortest time and with few handles. It is therefore easily possible to use the milling machine on different excavators for different purposes. In addition, this way it is worth using the tool even for short milling distances.

These data are the standard values of the GM 140 AFH-500 excavator-mounted trencher. These vary somewhat depending on which accessories and extensions are used in the work. In case of doubt, detailed advice will help in the selection process to find the best excavator-mounted trencher for your own purposes.

Flexibility is the hallmark of the GM 140 AFH-500 excavator-mounted trencher

Every now and then it happens that a trench has to be dug at an obstacle. In these cases, it is important that the milling machine can be used laterally offset from the excavator so that it can reach the desired locations at all. The GM 140 AFH-500 excavator-mounted trencher accomplishes this with a hydraulic slewing ring. This means that it is no problem to use the tiller even on hedges, walls or crash barriers. This flexibility is one reason why companies of all imaginable sizes use this device for their projects.

Also providing maximum flexibility are the cutter bars and chain of the GM 140 AFH-500 excavator-mounted trencher. Indeed, these are designed to be suitable for different depths. For example, the milling bar depth can be 600, 800, 1,200 or 1,500 millimeters, and the milling bars are laterally adjustable. In addition, chains with widths of 70, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400 and 450 millimeters are available. Thus, the milling machine adapts perfectly to the task at hand. Last but not least, it is possible to request customization. With this, a milling machine is suitable specifically for a particular project and is tailored to the individual requirements of the user.

Various selection criteria for the GM 140 AFH-500 excavator-mounted trencher

Depending on the project and the task at hand, different chains are used on the GM 140 AFH-500 excavator-mounted trencher. Among other things, carbon chisel chains are available, but also mixed chains with chisel and knife are available. Likewise, many users opt for a sole scraper with sole plate that adjusts individually to the respective milling depth. Also very convenient when working with the GM 140 AFH-500 excavator-mounted trencher is a manual or automatic laser system, as well as a pipe laying shaft and various cable reel holders.

Also proven is the conveyor belt of the GM 140 AFH-500 excavator-mounted trencher. This can be mounted on both sides of the milling machine and thus offers the greatest possible freedom of use. Such a conveyor deposits the excavated material during milling so that it does not land on the edge of the trench. At the same time, however, it is so close to the trench that it can easily be backfilled with it after the pipes or cables have been laid. Alternatively, a loading conveyor with 3,000 millimeters can be used to directly load and transport away the excavated material.
