Types of Sportsturf Drainage Trenchers
The AFT45 for compact tractors, refined and improved over more than 15 years, is still the most versatile sports field trencher on the market today.
For larger tractors over 70HP, the AFT100 with our unique soil clear-up two tier conveyor system offers high speed, accurate trenching, up to 10 times faster than a backhoe or excavator.
The Wizz Wheels 55 and 75 are the undisputed leaders in their class for the installation of intensive sportsturf drainage systems and can cope with exceptionally hard and stony conditions as well as soft and wet grounds.
The Sandbander has revolutionised the way sand slits are installed on sports surfaces. The unique blade design and oscillating movement installs drainage slits with well consolidated sand, even when wet.
The Dual Use Hopper is the perfect tool for back filling narrow trenches with both gravel and/or sand and works equally well with wet or damp sand.
