Welcome to engcon and Bauma 2016!

At our stand no. FM.708/3 at Bauma 2016, we will be presenting several new products and explaining more about how a complete system for the excavator will be profitable, flexible, safe and versatile.

What is a tiltrotator?

Exactly what it sounds like!

A tiltrotator converts the excavator to a flexible and profitable link in all projects. The tiltrotator is the excavator’s wrist and a key function: a smart accessory for buckets or other tools that provides the operator total precision and entirely new possibilities in his or her work.

With a tiltrotator on the machine, the bucket or chosen tool can be tilted 45 degrees and rotated 360 degrees around its own axle. This makes the possibilities limitless. The excavator can stay in the same place, but nonetheless work in every direction by tilting, turning, swivelling and rotating its tool into various positions.

Why a tiltrotator?

Excavator with maximal capacity.

A tiltrotator offers many advantages:

  • Increased profitability

  • Improves the efficiency of the excavator work

  • Saves fuel through fewer machine moves

  • Saves the environment through less fuel consumption and fewer machine moves

  • Reduces soil impact through fewer machine moves

  • More tools for the same excavator increase the degree of utilisation

  • Reduces the need for backfill material

  • Reduces the areas to cordon off

  • Reduces the need for manual labour

  • Saves time

  • Increases the possibility of new kinds of jobs

  • Increases the possibility of more jobs as the work is made more efficient

Increased flexibility

  • The bucket/tool can be tilted 45 degrees and rotated 360 degrees

  • Enables precision excavation

  • Simpler backfill work

  • The operator can reach without constantly having to move the excavator

  • The built-in quick hitch provides the capability to replace and use several different tools.

  • Increases the range of new kinds of jobs for the excavator

  • One machine can be used for several kinds of work

Increased efficiency

  • Saves time by reducing the number of machine moves

  • Saves time through easy tool replacements

  • The machine can reach in more places

  • The machine fleet does not need to be expanded and renewed since more steps can be done with the same machine - excavating, levelling, sweeping, lifting, grasping, compacting, etc.

Increased safety

  • Simplifies many work steps

  • Reduces the need for manual labour

  • Reduces the need to move the machine

  • Replacement of tools from the operator cab with hydraulic quick hitch

  • The operator has better reach and can then safely position the machine

How and when does a tiltrotator work?

The excavator’s flexible wrist

The tiltrotator is connected directly to the excavator’s arm or to the excavator’s quick hitch.

Tools or buckets are then easily connected under the tiltrotator. The tiltrotator then works as the excavator’s flexible wrist and allows the operator to reach even difficult positions without moving the machine. The operator easily switches tools without leaving his or her place in the cab.

Tiltrotators suit all kinds of excavation work including:

  • Electrical, telephony and broadband

  • Building & civil engineering

  • Ground levelling

  • Roads

  • Railways

  • Pipe laying

  • Precision work on narrow surfaces in varied terrain.

  • Precision and sensitivity without damage to the soil in sensitive environments.

A smaller number of machine moves provides greater safety, reduces the need for cordoned off areas, and provides greater accessibility. One machine, lots of different tools - endless possibilities in all kinds of projects with excavators or excavator loaders.
