Drainage Trenchers

Mastenbroek’s unrivalled range

Featuring pioneering engineering for efficient, reliable and cost-effective performance in diverse sub-surface drainage applications, soil types and water tables.

For more than four decades, Mastenbroek precision engineers have been at the forefront of global cutting chain technology. This pioneering work means that today, lateral and collector sub-surface drains and backfill filtration can be installed into precision on-grade open trenches. A host of industry leading features ensure that the optimum drainage scheme can be designed and installed according to field requirements, without compromise from machine limitations.

From agriculture and horticulture to sports and recreational areas, Mastenbroek drainage trenchers provide the power, precision and productivity our customers rely on, no matter how tough the climate or ground conditions.

Engineered Solutions

Precision grading

  • The Mastenbroek electro hydraulic proportional machine control system uses laser or GPS to maintain precise depth and grade
  • The Mastenbroek hydrostatic system is without compromise – generously sized with capacity in reserve to maintain grade control in varied and demanding ground conditions
  • Our stable, quick-reacting digging boom mechanism keeps the pipe box on-grade through shallow to deep trenches and soft to hard soils
  • Optional side tilt maintains stability and grading angle on cross slopes

Productivity

  • Powerful digging chain drive with stepless, adjustable speed adapts to suit soil conditions
  • Our well balanced, compact machine construction gives consummate stability and manoeuvrability
  • The heavy-duty, oscillating undercarriage provides excellent traction on undulating surfaces and saturated or low ground bearing pressure soils
  • The pivoting digging mechanism and independent lift pipe box allow these machines to deal with curved trench lines and quick connection into collectors or open ditches
  • Interchangeable pipe boxes and hoppers can be adjusted in field for more efficient placement of pipes and minimized use of back fill aggregates
  • Cabins are ROPS certified and ergonomically positioned for operator safety, visibility and comfort, giving maximum productivity over long days
  • Mastenbroek machine control with high-precision GPS enables lower skill level operators to work to pre-designed plans with an increased accuracy of work and metres installed per day

Reliable performance

  • Generously sized components are robust for excellent durability and productivity
  • Our components are from world-leading manufacturers and standard/common to many off-highway machines ensuring global after sales support
  • Our industry-leading multi-point filtration and cooling ensure reliable performance over long working days, whatever the climate
