The chassis features sophisticated ergonomic geometry and a KTL (cathodic dip-priming) protection treatment finished with powder coating, providing superior corrosion resistance in humid forestry environments.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Performance<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">: Powerful and Safe Cutting. The system is based on low-wear and low-maintenance shear cutting technology. <\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Equipped as standard with the Multigrip controller, the C450 ensures a synchronized and powerful grip before the cut begins. The hydraulic cylinders feature end-position damping, protecting the structure from mechanical impacts and allowing for smooth, rapid progress in dense forest stands.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Cutting Quality and Versatility: <\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Hardox\u00ae Precision. <\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">The unit features a patented high-strength blade, easily replaceable and resharpenable, ensuring a clean cut for diameters up to 500 mm in softwood and 450 mm in hardwood. Thanks to its &#8220;Plug &amp; Play&#8221; mounting system, it requires only 5 hydraulic connections to manage all functions, including advanced options like the tilt system or the collector (accumulator) for processing multiple stems simultaneously.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Fleet Compatibility <\/span><br \/><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">This head is designed to maximize the performance of heavy-duty carrier machinery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<ul><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<li><span data-sheets-root=\"1\" style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-family: Poppins, Arial\"><b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Base Machine:<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"> Designed for standard large excavators and forestry harvesters.

What advantages does the Multigrip controller offer on the C450?<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-family: Poppins, Arial;font-size: 12px\"> It is an intelligent hydraulic block that regulates the closure of the gripper and the cutting unit. It ensures the tree is firmly held before the blade starts moving and allows the blade to be released first when depositing the log, maintaining a safety grip throughout the process.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">2. Can it be installed on any 20-25 ton excavator? <\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">Yes, it is compatible with any standard excavator on the market. Its simple connection design requires only 5 hydraulic couplings to operate all functions, facilitating a fast and efficient installation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">3. How is the blade maintained?<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"> The Woodcracker C450 uses a patented high-strength blade that is very easy to sharpen and, if necessary, replace. The fastening system is designed to minimize downtime in the field.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">4. What is the &#8220;Autospeed&#8221; option for?<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"> The optional Autospeed system allows the cutting mechanism to close much faster when working with thin wood or shrubs, significantly increasing productivity in thinning and biomass clearing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\">5. Is it suitable for hazardous felling on roadsides?<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 12px\"> Absolutely. Thanks to its ability to hold the tree in a vertical position after the cut, it is ideal for precision felling in critical environments such as road infrastructures, power lines, or urban areas where free-falling trees must be avoided.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\" style=\"font-size: 10pt;font-family: Poppins, Arial\">The Woodcracker C450 is the ultimate solution for large-scale tree and shrub removal, specifically designed for excavators between 20 and 25 tons. <br \/>With an impressive cutting capacity of up to 500 mm and a robust construction made of Hardox\u00ae steel, it delivers exceptional performance in biomass harvesting and infrastructure clearing.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":84875,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_joinchat":[]},"product_brand":[582],"product_cat":[57],"product_tag":[],"translation_priority":[],"class_list":["post-3768","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-westtech-en","product_cat-machine","pa_marca-westtech","pa_tipo-shear-head","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3768","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/84875"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3768"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=3768"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=3768"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=3768"},{"taxonomy":"translation_priority","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/forestpioneer.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/translation_priority?post=3768"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
