The drum cutter and hydraulic breaker are both hydraulic attachments that can cut or break rock, concrete, or frozen ground. However, they have some differences:
- A drum cutter attachment for the excavator has rotating drums equipped with picks that spin at high speed to cut the material, while a hydraulic breaker has a chisel that strikes the material with high force.
- A drum cutter can work in various angles and directions. But a hydraulic breaker is limited by the position of the chisel.
- A drum cutter has low noise and vibration, while a hydraulic breaker has high noise and vibration that can cause damage to the excavator and the surroundings.
