The YG excavator drum cutter is a hydraulically driven milling attachment mounted on excavators, primarily used for milling, excavating, contour trimming, and surface treatment of hard materials such as rock, concrete, and asphalt. Its core characteristics lie in the high-speed rotation of multiple high-strength cutter bits on the drum, driven by a hydraulic motor, generating powerful milling force and enabling precise and controllable cutting with the advantages of low noise, low vibration, and low dust. Excavator drum cutters and milling machines are divided into horizontal and vertical milling machines.

- Special environment operations: Operations in noise and vibration-restricted areas, such as near hospitals and schools.
7 Advantages of Excavator Drum Cutter
- Efficient and precise milling: Powerful hydraulic power and an optimally designed cutter bit arrangement ensure efficient and precise milling results. As a professional excavator drum cutter, it can easily handle milling needs for rock and concrete of various hardness levels.
- Low noise and low vibration: Compared to impact crushing equipment such as hydraulic breakers, the drum cutter operates with lower noise and vibration levels, making it more suitable for urban and sensitive environment operations while reducing the impact on surrounding structures.
- High safety: The controllable milling process reduces the risk of splashing and flying debris, improving operational safety. Additionally, considering cost-effectiveness, our drum cutter price is highly competitive.
- Flexible and convenient: Mounted on the excavator, it is easy to move and has a wide operating range, enabling quick adaptation to different work sites.
- Multiple cutter bits optional: Different types of cutter bits can be replaced according to various operating needs to adapt to materials of different hardness and structures.
- Good surface treatment effect: The milled surface is relatively smooth, eliminating the need for additional trimming work.
- Environmentally friendly: The amount of dust generated is relatively small, making it more environmentally friendly.
