EXTENSION SETS FOR EXCAVATORS

Boom sets for medium-sized excavators, special excavators and custom-built boom sets.

Boom sets for medium-sized excavators

Herder has the perfect solution for increasing the reach of medium-sized excavators (approx. 5 to 9 tonnes). You can decide to replace the original excavator boom completely by a Herder boom set. This choice provides a number of advantages. The Herder boom set has three benefits compared with an original excavator boom with an extension boom. Its light weight allows more hoisting weight and it can thus take a larger mowing bucket or offer larger radius with the same excavator. Better kinematics for mowing bucket work. And maximum flexibility because the excavator side of Herder boom sets are made with the same sizes and connections as the original excavator boom. That means you can quickly switch between the original excavator boom and the Herder mowing bucket boom set, making your medium-sized excavator flexible in its availability for different jobs.

Boom sets for special excavators

Herder can also provide appropriate boom sets (mowing bucket booms) for special excavators like Mecalac and Gallmac machines. The first part of the original boom is not replaced for these excavators. That part is expanded with 2 ‘mowing bucket booms’. This creates a special transport position so that the view of the driver during transport is not hindered.

Custom-built boom sets

Herder supplies specially designed boom sets for mowing bucket work which can be used with special excavators. Operators can work well and quickly with these boom sets because the kinematics have been developed specially for mowing bucket work, boosted even more by the light weight.
