Product feature: Auger Torque VM Mulcher series
Auger Torque, global provider of earthmoving attachments, recently announced the addition of the VM1000 and VM1500 Variable Mulchers to their product portfolio
The company says their variable mulcher range, with a working width of up to 1.5 metres, provides the versatility of being able to be swapped between a skid steer loader and excavator, while also providing a drum drop change feature that gives users the choice of changing swiftly between fixed tungsten tooth and swinging hammer drum, allowing the one piece of equipment to undertake numerous on-site applications.

"The ability to attach a skid steer frame and excavator hitch at the same time, along with a removable pressure gauge and push bar allows for easy adaptation between parent machines when out on-site," says Matt Hencher, global production manager Auger Torque.
"It’s possible to have the mulcher set up for skid steer loaders and excavators simultaneously and clear dense low-level bushes with a skid steer, then mulch whole trees from top to ground level with an excavator."
The fixed tungsten teeth drum is designed to deliver a robust blunt cutting edge for grinding through thick timber up to 250mm diameter, hedges and branches, and the swinging hammer teeth drum gives a cleaner, more precise cut for dense bushes, smaller trees and even slashing grass, according to a company statement.
The VM Mulchers are made from high-grade steel and are over-engineered to be able to cope with the toughest conditions in the mulching and forestry industries, Auger Torque says.

Our aim is to always give customers the versatility and flexibility they need, and this mulcher was designed with this in mind," says Matt.
