Remote-Controlled Tracked Carrier – FAE RCU 120 (Rubber Tracks)

The most powerful remote-controlled compact carrier in its class for extreme land clearing. The FAE RCU 120 is the market’s most powerful compact remote-controlled vehicle, featuring a 120 hp engine designed for the most demanding forestry and roadside management tasks. With an operating weight of 3,850 kg and a high-profile rubber track system, it guarantees superior operational efficiency on extreme slopes of up to 55°. Its ability to mulch vegetation up to 20 cm in diameter makes it the definitive solution for hard-to-access terrains where operator safety is the top priority.

Large description

Engineering and Design: Unmatched Stability and Robustness.
The RCU 120 inherits the legendary toughness of FAE’s PT line and the precision of remote-controlled demining systems. Its reinforced steel structure provides integral protection for critical components against impacts in hostile environments. The Heavy-Duty undercarriage features a hydraulic variable track gauge, allowing the tracks to expand from 1,750 mm to 2,150 mm independently, providing an exceptional base on highly inclined terrain. The exclusive automatic tensioning system for rubber tracks ensures the vehicle always operates with maximum traction without the need for frequent manual adjustments.

Performance and Power:
Class-Leading Hydraulic Force.
Driven by a 120 hp Kohler (Rehlko) 3404 turbo aftercooler engine (Stage V), this vehicle delivers unprecedented hydraulic power for its segment. The independent dual-circuit hydrostatic transmission is complemented by a dedicated rotor pump delivering 150 L/min at 350 bar. Thanks to advanced electro-hydraulic management, the system prioritizes flow to the mulcher and includes an anti-stall function that optimizes engine torque under heavy loads, ensuring smooth and productive progress.

Technology and Control:
Precision at 250 Meters.
The operator manages all functions via a professional ergonomic remote control with a 3.5″ LCD screen and a range of up to 250 m. The unit integrates the Sonic system, which automatically adjusts the attachment’s performance to keep the rotor at optimal RPMs. Additionally, the vehicle features a self-cleaning radiator with a hydraulically controlled proportional reversible fan, essential for working in extreme dust conditions without performance loss. Through the FAE mobile app, users can monitor real-time parameters and manage scheduled maintenance with total ease.

Fleet Compatibility:
The RCU 120 is a multi-function platform compatible with a wide range of FAE and third-party tools:

  • UML/SONIC/RCU120-150: Forestry mulcher designed for vegetation and brush up to 20 cm.
  • FAE Attachments: Compatible with stump grinders, stone crushers, and road planers.
  • Universal SAE Coupling Plate: Enables the use of skid steer tools such as sweepers, mixing buckets, wood chippers, and forestry winches.

Frequented Asked Questions:

1. What warranty does FAE offer for the RCU 120? The equipment comes with a 1-year or 1,000-working-hour parts warranty (whichever comes first).

2. Is training included with the purchase of the machine?
Yes, we include 1 day of technical training and on-site commissioning with the delivery of the machine to ensure professional and safe operation.

3. What is the Sonic system and how does it help the operator?
The Sonic system automatically optimizes the hydraulic management of the head, allowing the mulcher to always work at the limit of its capacity without stalling, which increases productivity by up to 30%.

4. Can it work on rocky terrain?
Absolutely. In addition to forestry mulchers, the RCU 120 can be equipped with FAE stone crushers and road planers thanks to its high hydraulic pressure.

5. What happens if the remote control signal is lost?
The FAE mobile app allows the unit to be managed and recovered safely in the event of an accidental loss of the remote control signal.
