Grapples & Grabs 

We have custom built numerous grapples for a variety of applications. We generally use a worm drive for increase torque and hold force. These have proven very successful for rotating poles from horizontal to veretical for example.

We also designed and built a "pole holder' grapple for holding marine piles straight while being vibrated.

30 Ton Class 1900mm Wide Tilt Bucket 

Design & build high capacity 30 ton class tilt bucket. The requirement was to achieve a heaped capacity of 1.9m3 - 2.0m3, with a maximum width of 1900mm to enable the cleaning out / scraping of truck bins from the rear, and also achieve optimum weight to maintain structural strength, yet not too heavy for the excavator.

Another critical feature was our chamfered back corners for reduced sticking.
