SCORPION HD BY U.EMME: IDEAL FOR FORESTRY MANAGEMENT

Scorpion HD is the solution designed by U.Emme specifically for the forestry maintenance sector. It has been engineered to be mounted on the front of large Skid-Steer Loaders, Backhoe Loaders, and Telehandlers.

 

Two models are available with different working widths. Both are equipped with thick wear-resistant steel plates which integrate two skids, located below the sides, that allow the equipment to slide on the ground.

 

The piston engine generates the rotational motion of the helical rotor through a 5cm-wide high-performance pre-drilled toothed belt, protected by a bolted casing.

 

The forward-mounted rotor optimizes all cutting operations and is equipped with fixed Widia teeth arranged in a spiral layout. It is supported by two side mounts with a “labyrinth” that protects the swivel bearings from any impurities that might be collected while the machine is in use.

 

The material used to manufacture the teeth on the rotor is particularly noteworthy: Widia, or cemented carbide, is a highly-resistant metal alloy made of Tungsten Carbide particles embedded in a Cobalt matrix.

 

This makes it possible to successfully use Scorpion HD also for hard and demanding tasks, such as working in stony or rocky areas. Please remember that although the Scorpion HD Forestry Shredders are very useful tools for various forestry management activities, their use has to be carefully calibrated in order to avoid possible negative impacts on forests.

 

It is essential to adopt regulated and sustainable practices to minimize the risk of damaging forest ecosystems as well as to ensure the long-term preservation of the resources obtained from them.
