2025 Vermeer® Pipeline Trenchers T955III
Promote high-volume spoil removal with an extra-wide 30-in (76.2-cm) dirt conveyor opening that helps reduce jamming.
SmartTEC performance monitoring assists operators with adjustments to machine controls to help improve efficiency and tracks the operational performance of the machine on a consistent platform across all machine models.
The elevating cab allows optimal visibility and added comfort with the air ride seat.
The sealed cab has self-contained heating and air conditioning with sound attenuating foam.
It is also a rollover protective module (ROPM) and provides falling object protection (FOPS).
Features may include:
- To help you cut through the most difficult rock trenching conditions around, Vermeer offers the T955 trencher
- When you encounter tough trench digging conditions, the engine speed drops, increasing the torque for more power to pull through
- With a rugged D6 track chain and a sectionalized trencher boom allowing customized trench depths, the T955III also brings heavy equipment strength and versatility to your construction site
