The MakBrent Legacy
MakBrent, part of the Garbin group in Agugliaro, Italy, has been building digging machinery since 1963. In 2014 it developed the world’s first radio-controlled multifunction trencher, so the operator can work at a safe distance from the cutting head and from traffic.
For sports grounds, parks and orchards the range covers the MAK 80, MAK 60 and MAK 45 chain trenchers, the MAK multifunction machines with chain and mulcher attachments, CTI chain trenchers for excavators and skid steers, and CTM chain trenchers for tractors.
- Irrigation & Drainage — Narrow trenches for irrigation pipes and land drains.
- Cables & Lighting — Lay power and lighting cables around pitches, paths and orchards.
- Minimal Turf Damage — Removes only the soil needed, so ground is quick to reinstate.
- Remote Control — Radio-controlled mini skids keep the operator at a safe distance.
