Yantai Fangcheng Machinery Unveils New Energy Highway Hedge Trimmer

　　Yantai Fangcheng Machinery Technology Co., Ltd.'s GLC series vehicle-mounted hedge trimmers have long led the industry in technological development, boasting multiple original technologies, including one national invention patent.

　　To implement the national “dual carbon” strategy, Yantai Fangcheng Machinery officially launched the GLC3-45D series of new energy highway hedge trimmers in July 2025 and successfully conducted road tests in Yantai on July 23.

　　The GLC3-45D series of new energy hedge trimmers utilize high-capacity lithium iron phosphate battery packs as their power source, replacing the previous gasoline generator sets. Combined with specially designed brushless DC motors, they offer numerous advantages such as high torque and power, high efficiency and cost savings, zero noise and pollution, and minimal maintenance. These features are of significant importance in promoting energy conservation and emissions reduction in the highway maintenance industry and achieving green maintenance.

　　The battery pack can be charged directly using 220V AC power, with a full charge providing over 8 hours of operation, ensuring sufficient power for a full day's work.

　　The machine's total power consumption is 5–6 kW, with hourly electricity costs of only 5 yuan, saving over 90% compared to traditional fuel-powered models, and reducing annual fuel costs by 100,000 yuan.

　　Traditional gasoline engines require high maintenance costs, with annual expenses of around 5,000 yuan, and they are noisy and prone to failures. Lithium-ion batteries require minimal maintenance, saving approximately 5,000 yuan annually in engine maintenance and repair costs compared to traditional models, while significantly reducing carbon dioxide emissions. The economic and social benefits are highly significant.

　　The initial models launched include the GLC3-15-180/160X+126 side-mounted shearing machine and the GLC3-45D-160X composite rotating blade hedge trimmer.
