Serie PFO-P

Heavy-duty, compact orange peel grapple

Description

PFO-P: the best choice for medium size, wheeled excavators

Heavy-duty orange peel grapples PFO-P series have a compact shape, which provides significant advantages when used in confined or enclosed spaces. The very sturdy construction, the solid end stops (both in opening and closing) and the protected hydraulic circuit provides great reliability and lifespan. The low weight in relation to the loading intake makes them the ideal tool for wheel loaders up to 23 tons weight.

Hydraulic cylinders

Hydraulic cylinders are generously dimensioned and can work at a maximum pressure of 300 bar. They are made with top quality materials and manufactured with extra - precision machinery. Some construction details, such as the external plug and the ball joint on the ram, grant maximum reliability even in the toughest working conditions. Pistons mount PH phenolic guide rings, more reliable than market-standard PVC guide rings.

Versatility

Orange peel grapples are multi-tines gripping devices. Each tine is set in motion by a double-acting hydraulic cylinder. For that the jaws, or teeth, have a synchronized, but independent, movement of opening and closing. The number of  tines vary from four to six. This feature makes polyp grapples particularly suitable for the collection and handling of large quantities of bulk materials such as metal scrap, paper, tires drive, solid urban waste and firewood. They can be mounted on truck cranes, mini excavators, stationary cranes, hydraulic excavators and wheeled loaders.

Different rotator options

The attachments for crane and excavator can be equipped with a rotation device, either mechanical (free, 250° rotation) or hydraulic (hydraulic motor with continuous rotation). Depending on the type of equipment, the rotator may be incorporated in the main frame of the equipment or mounted on the top of it. Idrobenne offers a wide range of high quality hydraulic rotators.

Experience in construction and reliability.

More than thirty years experience in the industry, the most modern technical design programs and a careful assembly make Idrobenne’s hydraulic equipment a reliable and safe product. Construction and testing are carried out by highly qualified and experienced personnel. The design of the equipment is always "user friendly", to grant simple access during maintenance.  All wear parts are easy to reach and quickly replaceable.

High quality components.

All products are built using high-tensile Swedish steel for the structural parts and use wear plates (Hardox) for parts in contact with the handled materials, such as the blades of the buckets, the tines and the tips. The large diameter pins are made of special steel, hardened under heat treatment. The bushes are provided of an internal spiral for the distribution of grease. The entire production cycle is certified according to ISO 9001 standards.

Custom links.

Orange peel grapples, clamshell buckets, log grapples and similar attachments must be mounted on operating machines through a cardan link. This part allows free swinging in the four horizontal directions (so-called pendulum mounting). Idrobenne can manufacture and supply custom-made links for any operating machine such as truck cranes, excavators, material handlers and earth moving equipment.
