FAE has renewed its line of flail mulchers for 1.8–6.8 tonne excavators
FAE has announced the expansion of its flail mulcher line for small excavators with the new PML/EX family for 2–7.5 ton (1.8–6.8 tonne) excavators. The new line replaces the PML/HY and PMM/HY lines and the previous version of the PML/EX.
The new PML/EX can mulch light vegetation, shrubs and trees up to 5cm in diameter. Light and compact, FAE says the new range is specifically suited for managing and protecting wildlife habitats and maintaining commercial parks and sports grounds.
The head is designed for high productivity, durability and easy installation and maintenance.

The PML/EX’s Direct Drive motor minimises maintenance and allows for a smaller machine body for better manoeuvrability. With a flow regulator valve built into the motor and a thumb bracket integrated into the frame, the head maintains a clean profile and compact build, FAE says.
The hydraulic motor is compatible with excavators that do not have a drainage line, making the head easier to install. This feature makes the head a plug-and-play piece of equipment.
The new PML/EX can be equipped with PML hammers or Y-flails and comes in an operating width of 75, 100, 125, or 150cm.
