Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides technical specifications and features of AFM Grapples, designed for efficient log handling. The grapples are engineered to ensure logs roll in smoothly, fill the grapple efficiently, and maintain load stability. They are equipped with two cylinders for low and even shaft loading, reducing wear and enhancing performance across various materials.
Grapple Models and Specifications: The document lists several models, including AFM 15, 20, 25, 28, 35, 40, 50, 55, 80, and 100, with detailed specifications for each. Key parameters include maximum working pressure, tip force, opening and closing times, dimensions, load area, and maximum load capacity. For instance, the AFM 25 model has a maximum working pressure of 23 MPa, a tip force of 17 kN, and a maximum load capacity of 3500 kg.
Saw Unit Specifications: The document also details technical specifications for saw units that can be integrated with certain grapple models (25, 28, 35, 40, and 55). Specifications include dimensions, pressure and flow requirements, saw bar size, and cutting diameter. The saw units feature automatic chain tensioning, adjustable chain lubrication, and automatic saw bar return.
Key Features: AFM Grapples are highlighted for their twin cylinders, high-quality construction, expander pins, powder coating, reliability, user-friendliness, and high-grade steel. They can be equipped with additional saw units for cross-cutting and bioenergy material processing without compromising loading capabilities.
