What is a self-propelled tracked carrier?

It’s a heavy-duty vehicle equipped with tracks and dedicated power to drive high-performance attachments like mulchers, rock crushers, and stabilizers for harsh terrains.

Which FAE equipment is suitable for tracked carriers?

FAE offers industrial-grade forestry mulchers, stone crushers, stump grinders, and soil stabilizers designed for integration with PT series tracked carriers or similar systems.

Where are tracked carriers most often used?

Tracked carriers are used in forestry, utility corridor maintenance, mining prep zones, mountain slope stabilization, and anywhere wheeled equipment lacks traction or durability.

Equipment for

Tracked Carriers

A range of robust tools is designed to pair with specialized vehicles used on construction sites. Forestry mulchers and soil stabilizers are part of the equipment lineup for tracked carriers, specifically created for demanding tasks. Let’s examine the characteristics of tracked carriers, the tools compatible with them, their applications, and the advantages contractors should consider.

The Tracked Carrier: A Versatile and Productive Vehicle

Performing tasks on rugged terrain requires precise maneuvering for machinery operators. In such challenging environments, tracked carriers excel with agility and power. These vehicles deliver high efficiency when paired with tracked carrier equipment such as forestry mulchers and soil stabilizers.

The forestry mulcher enables effortless grinding of trees, stumps, and other vegetation. Various mulcher models are available for tracked carriers, such as the 140/U mulcher, the perfect tool for specialized vehicles with 150 HP, and at the higher end, the premium 500/U mulcher, designed for powerful machines ranging from 400 to 600 HP.

Tracked carrier equipment also includes other tools like the 200/S and 300/S soil preparers, which not only grind stumps and roots but also work the soil to depths of up to 40 cm. Lastly, multifunctional tracked carrier equipment, such as the SFM/PM and SFH/PM models, can grind wood, stumps, and stones while deeply preparing the soil.

The Versatile Applications
of Tracked Carriers

Thanks to their exceptional manoeuvrability, tracked carriers can tackle the most challenging tasks on obstacle-ridden terrain. When paired with tracked carrier equipment, these specialized off-road vehicles can handle even the harshest environments. In forestry, they can grind trees and stumps up to 50 cm in diameter to create stable paths. These vehicles are invaluable for creating firebreaks during wildfires, as well as managing power lines and railway tracks.

Forestry contractors, managers, and machinery distributors benefit from tracked carrier equipment to optimize their operations. Municipalities use it for maintaining roadsides, parks, and pedestrian trails. Excavation contractors—whether working in road paving, residential, or commercial sectors—find numerous applications for tracked carriers on their worksites. Similarly, plantation owners rely on tracked carrier equipment to efficiently manage their land at reduced costs.

Forestry Mulcher
for Tracked Carriers

The forestry mulcher for tracked carriers is a must-have for demanding tasks that require high performance. With this equipment for tracked carriers, it is possible to quickly grind tree trunks ranging from 25 cm to 50 cm in diameter and stumps down to ground level. This tool performs precise work in forests, along railway tracks, residential and sports trails, and more. On forestry sites, the mulcher ensures an optimal productivity-to-profitability ratio.

Soil Stabilizer for
Tracked Carriers

Another piece of equipment for tracked carriers that optimizes worksite operations is the soil stabilizer. Also referred to as a soil preparer, this tool can finely grind stumps and roots up to 50 cm in diameter and to depths of up to 40 cm. It is an ideal tool for restoring agricultural land or any surface scattered with obstacles. Thanks to the manoeuvrability of tracked carriers, the soil stabilizer is well suited for maintaining narrow and specific areas, such as power line corridors or gas pipelines.

Equipment for All Types of Machinery

Forestry mulchers and soil stabilizers are among the equipment that can be paired with specialized vehicles such as tracked carriers, but other equipment models are also available. For instance, radio-controlled tracked carrier equipment is ideal for tasks requiring work on steep slopes or a high level of safety. Similarly, equipment for compact loaders/compact tractors/skid steers and equipment for backhoes, which guarantee power and performance in any situation.
