Dorfmeister - Model EHZ 320 -Grapple Cutter with Slewing Ring
The EHZ 320 energy wood shears are designed for harvesting energy wood and especially for initial thinning. The main focus of our design was to develop a light and robust cutting head with as few moving parts as possible. Material made of high-strength steel HB400 with a thickness of 15 mm is rather rare in this size class of the EHZ 320 .

- 360° continuous rotation : The version with a rotating ring enables a 360° continuous rotation of the cutting head. This allows the felling grapple to be positioned optimally on the tree or bush to be cut, regardless of the tilt of the tree or the excavator.
- Simplified work : The slewing ring not only makes cutting easier , but also makes it easier to deposit the cut material. The material can be deposited directly next to the road or in the skid lane, which increases the efficiency and safety of the work.
- Decoupled rotary union : This version includes a decoupled quadruple rotary union as standard, providing additional flexibility and control
We achieve the outstanding cutting pattern by means of a counter-blade on the moving main arm. We attach the main blade with offset screws in order to ensure the blade has the highest possible stability and torsional rigidity.
When a slewing ring makes sense:- Difficult positioning : If you often work on uneven terrain or in hard-to-reach places, the slewing ring allows the cutting head to rotate 360° continuously . This makes it easier to position the grapple optimally on the tree or bush, regardless of the inclination of the excavator or the terrain.
- Efficient work : A slewing ring can increase efficiency by enabling the cut material to be deposited quickly and precisely right next to the road or in the skid lane. This saves time and reduces the effort involved in transporting the material.
- Flexibility : The slewing ring offers additional flexibility, which is particularly beneficial in cultivation and landscaping where different positioning of the cutting head is required to perform different tasks efficiently.
- Versatility : Increases the versatility of the device as the cutting head can be rotated in any desired direction, making it easier to adapt to different working conditions.
- Reduced effort : Minimizes the need to reposition the excavator yourself, reducing labor and increasing safety.
A slewing ring is particularly useful for users who work in demanding environments or want to optimize the efficiency of their work processes .
