Technokraft projects and equipments offers an electro hydraulic grab for the transportation of bulk materials, manufactured by gerb wohr gmbh, germany. The advantage of this grab from conventional equipment is that the whole hydraulic system is situated in the grab itself and needs only a single power cable for opening/closing control of the jaws. The hydraulic supply pipes are eliminated and consequent maintenance and leakage breakdowns are not there. The grab is available in 0.6 m3 and 3 m3 volume buckets. The extensive uses of this grab are in sand transportation in foundry [specially from moulding pits], transportation of non-magnetic material [where magnet lifts are not possible], transport of swarf, grit, wastes from sewer, slaughterhouses, etc.
