BONOVO Hydraulic Grapple for Mini Excavator 1-6 ton

Overview

This BONOVO Hydraulic Grapple model is the mini excavator grapple, also known as log grapple, is a highly efficient tool powered by the excavator's own oil pump control valve. This tool utilizes a hydraulic drive system to achieve the smooth opening and closing actions of the grab body, ensuring both simplicity and efficiency in operation. Available in two types, non-rotating and rotating, the non-rotating version enjoys widespread popularity due to its stability and practicality. Next we will introduce BONOVO's non-rotating hydraulic grapple for mini excavator 1-6 ton in detail.

Specifications

Advantages

Efficiency:

On construction sites, the hydraulic grapple is widely used for various excavation and gripping tasks. It can effortlessly grab and transport building materials such as bricks, sand, and concrete blocks, making it a valuable asset for construction crews.

Hydraulic Grapple VS Mechanical Grapple

Working Principles: 

Mechanical grapples typically rely on mechanical structures to achieve gripping actions, with their opening and closing degrees and gripping forces often constrained by these structures. Conversely, hydraulic grapples utilize a hydraulic system, controlling the opening and closing of the grab body through pressure changes within the cylinders, enabling them to handle a wider range of gripping tasks with greater flexibility.

Efficiency And Precision: 

Hydraulic grapples exhibit significant advantages over mechanical grapples. Thanks to the precise control of the hydraulic system, hydraulic grapples can achieve more accurate positioning and gripping, significantly enhancing work efficiency. Additionally, the uniform gripping force of hydraulic grapples helps prevent damage to objects.

Adaptability And Flexibility: 

Hydraulic grapples excel in this terms, Their cylinder and grab body designs can be customized to accommodate various shapes and sizes of objects, making them suitable for a broader range of tasks. Mechanical grapples, on the other hand, are often limited by their mechanical structures and can only adapt to specific types of gripping tasks.

Maintenance And Operational Costs:

Although the initial investment for hydraulic grapples may be relatively higher, their efficient and stable performance, coupled with longer service lives, often result in lower maintenance and operational costs in the long run. Mechanical grapples, despite their simplicity and low cost, may be more prone to failures when handling complex and heavy-duty gripping tasks, thereby increasing maintenance costs.
