ASTEC RT 600 Trencher now has two new models
Semco’s Graham Murphy said: “All models
incorporate a torsion shaft that absorbs
shock loads from the driveline, while
planetary gears multiply the hydrostatic
motor torque to provide
optimum digging
power.
“Under severe loads
this shaft can provide
up to one and a half full
turns without breaking,
thus maintaining the
load upon the cutting
teeth and insulating
the hydrostatic system
from shock loads that
can otherwise generate
excessive heat in tough
conditions.
“The RT 600 trencher features a 42kW,
four cylinder 199CID Tier 4i diesel engine
that delivers 48kW of horsepower.
Maximum trencher depth is 1.83m and up
to 406.3mm wide, while steering ranges are
2w, 4w, crab drive and coordinated.
“A dual hydrostatic ground drive and
hydrostatic attachment drive provide
optimum traction for trenching or
ploughing. The backhoe reaches up to
2.26m in depth.
“Astec chains provide extended service
life as a result of heat treated steel
construction and burnished pin holes that
guarantee a 100% perfect pin fit. Chain
durability is enhanced by using tube steel
pin bushes.”
