Fecon, a global manufacturer of heavy-duty site preparation attachments and forestry accessories, will showcase a skid steer mulching attachment, among other new products, at The Utility Expo September 26-28 in Louisville, Kentucky.
The BK6218 62-inch Blackhawk skid steer mulching attachment pairs with Fecon’s brand-new telematics platform, Fusion. The RK6015P — one of three new PTO mulchers — will also premiere at The Utility Expo.
In addition, Fecon will debut products from a new acquisition, the TrimEx tree trimming saw attachments. Fecon will feature this equipment for land clearing and maintaining utility right-of-way solutions at booth #E910.
“Our lineup of innovative products reflects just how busy we’ve been this year,” says Jeff Stanley, Fecon’s senior vice president of product development. “We’re excited to show our customers that we’re listening to their feedback and are introducing a great array of new solutions tailored to their needs.”
Fusion is Fecon’s control technology that uses features such as automatic machine calibration, location services and performance tracking to improve mulching performance and productivity. Fusion enables customers to optimize the performance of the head on any compatible carrier with a plug-and-play design that calibrates the head to the machine at each start up and throughout the day’s operation. The ongoing data analysis empowers customers to make real time data-driven decisions.
Fecon’s PTO mulcher will also join the trade show line-up, the first of three PTO mulchers designed for tractors in the 50 to 110 horsepower range. This series of mulchers helps landowners leverage their own equipment for land clearing under utility lines or for energy industry projects, saving time and money. The RK6015P is the mid-size model with a 60-inch working width, featuring a 15-inch rotor and attaches to 50 to 90 horsepower tractors.
Additional Fecon products used in the maintenance of roadsides, power lines and utility installations include the TrimEx series of tree saws (trimmers). The TrimEx 26D, 26S and 18C, designed to fit small to midsize skid steers, compact track loaders and tractors, offer the ability to quickly trim a high volume of trees at elevations from 18 to 26 feet. Each model features a high-speed saw, rotating head and telescoping boom to allow the operator to make continuous, clean cuts from one machine position for faster, more efficient clearance.
Another new product at the trade show will be Fecon’s Disc Hawk forestry attachment, which launched earlier this year. Rounding out the lineup will be the FTX150-2 mulching tractor with the Bull Hog 85SS high flow skid steer mulching attachment, the FMX28 and FMX36 excavator mulching heads, the roof-mounted hydraulic cooler accessory and the compact STUMPEX stump grinder attachment.
