Track Trenchers and Rock Saws: Mastenbroek
The Mastenbroek 30/20 chain trencher is fitted with an extended 3.2m (10.5 feet) digging boom.
In its standard form the 30/20 has a 335-hp engine and dig depth of 0.3m-2.2m (1-7.25 feet) at widths of 125mm-380mm (5-15 inches). The 30/20 comes complete with a standard pipe installation box, but can be adapted for all styles of pipe and laying conditions. The 30/20 also features laser control, ensuring that pipe installation is accurate, independent of the terrain encountered. Further aids to the operator come in the form of a variety of systems to monitor trenching operations, from single displays to fully automated dual lift and tilt, and sink control systems covering every conceivable drainage application; these are equally suited to rock trenching. +44 (0) 1205 311313, www.mastenbroek.com
