Fork Grapple is a relatively new
design under the Grapple family. Although this design is not commonly seen
outside the Asia market, however, it has been fast gaining popularity. The
design was tweaked from a conventional grapple for material handling
applications, light demolition, recycling and scrap industries. Its light
weight, 2-tine over 3-tine frame design provides extraordinary rapid grapping
action, reducing cycle time and increasing productivity. Internal structures
within each tine is heavily reinforced to ensure maximum rigidity.
Unlike the
conventional grapple design where a stiff arm is mandatory, in the case of a fork
grapple, the use of stiff arm is totally eliminated. As a result,
BOTH jaws open and close simultaneously
in a single action. Which translate into 2X the opening and closing speed of
jaws as compared to typical stiff-arm grapple, and yet with a very firm
clamping force.
Each tine is serrated
with wear strips, protecting each tine as well as enhancing the gripping
power of irregular shaped items.

The installation of the fork grapple is similar to installing a bucket, and
absolutely no welding is required.
We offer 2 versions of fork grapples, general purpose and heavy duty for
every needs and applications. Heavy duty version has added Hardox wear
resistance steel, the excellent hardness property of the Hardox steel provides
an extended durability in harsh environment. |
