Fecon 8-15 Ton Excavator Mulching Head (Model CEM36)
Expand your service offerings and maximize fleet utility with the Fecon Bull Hog CEM36 Mulching Head. Engineered specifically for 8-15 ton midi-excavators, this heavy-duty forestry attachment delivers the perfect balance of operating weight and rugged durability. The CEM (Compact Equipment Mulcher) design allows lower-horsepower and standard-reach excavators to tackle demanding land-clearing jobs without sacrificing lifting capacity or machine stability.
Boost Fleet Versatility and Job Site ROI
- Access Restricted Terrain: Turn your excavator's reach into a high-production clearing tool for steep ravines, embankments, roadsides, and pipeline right-of-ways.
- Process Up to 6” Material: Effortlessly mulch standing trees, dense brush, and slash down to a fine, organic ground cover in a single pass.
- Maximize Lower-Power Carriers: Engineered to extract maximum grinding performance from mid-sized utility excavators common in North American rental and commercial fleets.
Key Commercial Features & Benefits
Variable Displacement Hydraulic Efficiency
The CEM36 features an integrated 55cc variable displacement hydraulic motor. This system automatically optimizes rotor speed and torque on the fly. When hitting large material, the motor adjusts to deliver maximum torque; when clearing light brush, it increases RPMs for high-speed processing.
Fecon Grinding Technology (FGT) Rotor System
Built around a heavy-duty 20-inch rotor, this attachment utilizes Fecon’s industry-proven FGT system. The stout body design protects critical components, while heavy-duty ST65 rotor bearings ensure maximum uptime and a low total cost of ownership.
Interchangeable Tooling Options
Adapt your cutting edge to regional soil types and vegetation across North America. The standard rotor holds 18 tools, while the Depth Control Rotor (DCR) holds 14 tools. Available tooth options include:
- Double Carbide: Standard high-durability tool for mixed vegetation and ground contact.
- High Abrasion: Optimized for sandy, abrasive soils and gritty environments.
- Stone Tool: Engineered to withstand incidental rock strikes without fracturing.
- Viking Sword & Viking Axe: Sharp, high-production knives ideal for fast processing of softwoods and fibrous brush.
