How an Excavator Forestry Mulcher Works

The Excavator Forestry Mulcher uses the hydraulic system of the host excavator to power a rotating drum equipped with sharp teeth or blades. These components rapidly shred branches, stumps, and bushes into fine mulch.

The hydraulic motor drives the cutting system, which varies in design depending on the model—flail, drum, or disc style. Most models include a protective shroud to contain debris and ensure operator safety.

Operation process:

  1. Hydraulic power from the excavator is transferred to the mulcher.
  2. The rotor spins at high speed with durable teeth or hammers.
  3. As the head moves over vegetation, it cuts and grinds material into mulch.
  4. The mulch remains on-site to prevent erosion and support soil health.

High-torque, low-RPM models are best suited for tougher terrain and denser brush, while lighter-duty versions work well for softer vegetation.
