TMK 400 Tree Shear
Maximum Diameter Cut | 400mm
Machine Size | 10 – 30 Ton
Weight | 620KG
The TMK 400 is the largest Tree Shear in the TMK range and was originally developed for forestry work in Central Europe where the trees are bigger and harder than in Finland. The TMK 400 is powered by cylinders specially designed for it, enabling the shear to easily cut trees up to 400 mm in diameter.
If you want to handle big trees safely, the TMK 400 is just what you need. The TMK 400 tree shear meets professional forest management needs.
SO WHY THE TMK 400?
TMK 400 is a true tree shear powerhouse. This shear will cut up to 400 mm softwood and 350 hardwood trees comfortably, so the TMK 400 is optimal shear for larger scale vegetation clearance and problem tree removals. TMK 400 fits to 10-30 tonne excavators, big skid steers & more.
The structure is in true TMK fashion, capsular and modular. Efficient optional attachments make sure that TMK 400 compliments your needs perfectly. And when your needs increase by time, the shear can grow with your work.
The blade is high quality Hardox 500 steel and with fixed design it will last being only 15 mm thick. This way the blade slices better into the tree and can still withstand heavy work. The shear frame is made out of Hardox 400 steel, so also there we get a peace of mind with Hardox.
The TMK 400 shear can open to a width of up to 1,070 mm. The strong capsular structure can withstand the twisting force of even the largest trunks, while keeping the weight of the shear below 620 kg.
CYLINDER OPTIONS
Cylinder options are a big one, we always try to match up the shear to your machine. With 3 options available there is a very wide variety of machines the TMK Tree Shears can suit, likewise with the TMK 200 & 300 the TMK 400 has the option of the HD ( Heavy Duty ) cylinder for machines which are a bit down / lower on pressure, operating at between the recommended 180 – 220 BAR. The Bigger Cylinder which is our standard here in the UK, operating between the recommended 220 – 250 BAR & then the patented TMK Turbo Cylinder, a 2 stage cylinder consisting of both a smaller & larger ram, utalising the smaller cylinder first for the speed with the larger cylinder to backup on power if necessary, this option also operates on a lot lower recommended flow.

POPULAR OPTIONAL ATTACHMENTS
Here are a few of the most popular optional
attachments
The Collector / Accumilator
The simple operation of the Collector enables quick and easy operation, for example when thinning a young forest. With the Collector, you can cut and collect thin trunks without having to lift the boom after each cut, turn the machine and drop a small trunk into a pile individually. Now with two different control options “Easy Control” & “Full Control“
The Brush Grapple
Allowing you to cut even the smallest trees neatly. An additional blade welded at the bottom of the grapple is sharpened on one side only, and it eliminates the gap between the grapple and the blade. As a result, the cutting motion becomes more scissor-like and even the most flexible twigs, such as small willows.
