Our excavator log grapples are essential attachments designed to enhance the functionality of excavators. They are specifically engineered to meet the demands of various industries, enabling efficient handling of materials such as logs, stones, and large scraps. Whether it's in forestry, construction, or recycling, these grapples are a reliable solution.
2. Product Structure
Each log grapple consists of a robust frame, high - strength jaws, and precision - engineered hydraulic components. The frame provides a stable base, while the jaws are designed to firmly grip and hold materials. The hydraulic system, including cylinders and valves, ensures smooth and precise operation, allowing for easy opening, closing, and, in some models, 360 - degree rotation.
3. Product Types
- Mechanical Grapples: These are cost - effective options that use the excavator's existing bucket cylinder for operation. They do not require additional complex hydraulic systems, making them suitable for basic material - handling tasks where rotation is not necessary.
- Non - Rotating Hydraulic Grapples: These grapples are equipped with a dedicated hydraulic system that controls the opening and closing of the jaws. They offer more power and precision compared to mechanical grapples, enhancing the gripping force and efficiency in handling materials.
- 360 - Degree Rotating Hydraulic Grapples: The most versatile type, these grapples feature a hydraulic rotation mechanism that allows for unlimited clockwise and anti - clockwise rotation. This enables operators to reach and handle materials from various angles, significantly increasing the flexibility and productivity in different work environments.
4. Manufacturing Process
Our grapples are manufactured using advanced techniques and high - quality materials. The production process begins with precise cutting and shaping of high - strength steel plates for the frame and jaws. These components are then welded using state - of - the - art welding technology to ensure maximum strength and durability. After welding, the parts undergo rigorous quality checks, including non - destructive testing, to identify any potential defects. The hydraulic components, such as cylinders and motors, are assembled with strict precision, and the entire grapple is then painted with corrosion - resistant paint to protect against harsh working conditions.
5. Material Selection
- Frame and Jaws: High - strength alloy steels, such as Q345B and NM500, are used for the frame and jaws. Q345B offers excellent strength and toughness, while NM500 provides high wear resistance, ensuring the grapple can withstand heavy loads and abrasive materials.
- Hydraulic Components: The hydraulic cylinders are made of high - grade alloy steel with precision - machined surfaces to ensure smooth operation and long - term reliability. The seals and hoses are sourced from reputable manufacturers and are designed to withstand high pressures and resist oil degradation.
