Upgraded From Tigercat: 850B Processor
The 850 processor, the Tigercat branded purpose-built alternative to excavator conversions, has been upgraded for improved performance. The new 850B retains all of the advantages over converted excavators used in roadside processing applications—easier service access, a more comfortable cab with better visibility, and superior cooling capacity.
The performance and fuel efficiency differential has been further increased. Initial field testing confirms that the 14% increase in power to 187 kW (251 HP) results in improved machine performance and response for quicker, smoother boom cycles, improved feed acceleration and braking, and more powerful swing. In addition, hydraulic system refinements target boom efficiency, reducing fuel consumption.
