WINTER IS COMING: GET A DRUM CUTTER

21-10-2024

Why are Drum Cutters perfect for Canada’s frozen ground?

It is widely known that winter in Canada is very tough. When the ground freezes, it turns rock-solid, slowing down construction projects and increasing costs. But MB's drum cutters are proving to be the heroes we didn't know we needed!

Don’t let frozen ground slow you down! Explore the benefits of drum cutters for faster, more efficient excavation and trenching, even in the coldest conditions.

Try digging into frozen soil— tough, right? That’s where drum cutters come in. These nifty tools use rotating drums to grind through even the hardest, iciest surfaces with ease. Whether for trenching, road construction, or laying pipes, a drum cutter can slice right through, saving time and effort.

Boost winter productivity with drum cutters.

 

Here’s why Drum Cutters are widely used:

1. Faster trenching and excavation
When the ground is frozen, trenching for pipelines or utilities can be slow and frustrating. Drum cutters let you break through that hard soil quickly without the need to wait for it to thaw.

2. Protect your equipment
Frozen ground is tough not just on workers, but on machinery too.
MB Crusher drum cutters are designed to handle harder materials and minimize damage to the machinery while maintaining productivity. Their design reduces the strain on the boom or the machine itself, which is particularly important in these harsh conditions.

3. Precision & Control
Frozen ground can create uneven and difficult-to-manage surfaces. Drum cutters provide a level of precision that traditional tools like hammers or excavators might lack. This precision is essential for projects requiring a specific depth or profile, such as when preparing foundations, pipelines, or roadbeds, where the frozen layer needs to be milled uniformly.

4. Even in Urban Areas
Construction in cities or environmentally sensitive areas needs to be quieter and cause less disruption. Drum cutters offer low noise and vibration compared to traditional methods like jackhammers. Jobs are done with minimal disturbance to surrounding structures or the environment, making them neighbour-friendly!
