Wood chips are a challenging bulk material to handle. The finer and drier the material, the greater the demands placed on the grab technology used, particularly when reliable and largely automated plant operation is required. For a biomass heating plant, KR\u00d6GER, a product brand of METZEN, therefore developed a tailor-made solution specifically designed to meet the application’s unique requirements.<\/p>\n
To address these challenges, the KR\u00d6GER team of experts worked closely with the customer to develop a customised grab solution. Overlapping tines reduce the gaps between the grab shells, minimising material losses during handling. A specially designed sealed bearing system with aluminium-bronze bearing shells ensures reliable operation, even in dry and dusty environments. The solution is further enhanced by IO-Link-enabled analogue sensors, which continuously transmit process data to the plant control system and support automated operation.<\/p>\n
The result is a grab solution that handles material efficiently, reduces maintenance requirements and reliably meets the demands of modern automated biomass plants \u2013 cost-effective, durable and future-ready.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
