Many customers will ask this question, choose a Remote control grab or a Hydraulic Grab? When encountering this kind of problem, we often ask what the material the customer grabs is. Where is it used? Detailed information such as the capacity of the Grab Bucket, because it is very important to choose a suitable Grab bucket, we need to make the best plan according to the customer's specific situation.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of choosing a Remote Control Grab?
Determine the requirements. If you have to choose between a remote control grab and a hydraulic grab, there are many advantages to choosing a remote grab. The grab is very intelligent in operation, does not require an additional power supply, and is controlled by remote control. When the grab is opened, the size of the grab can be controlled, it can be opened at any position in the air, and it can be closed by its own weight, which is relatively more energy-saving and environmentally friendly. The remote control grab is also cheaper than the hydraulic grab, there is no complicated maintenance work in the later stage, and the cost performance is higher.
However, there is one condition that needs to be met when choosing a remote control grab, that is, it is necessary to reserve 8-10 meters of wire rope travel. If this cannot be met, it may not be possible to choose, so we need to have a very clear understanding of the site situation. The remote control grab can only be used for the grabbing of bulk cargo. It only has a clamshell structure and no orange peel structure. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the type of material.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of choosing a hydraulic grab?
The hydraulic grab has a wide range of applications. It has different structure types, such as clamshell type, orange peel type, and some special structures, such as wood grab, straw grab, rectangular grab, etc., so its range of applications is very wide, no matter what volume of material, it can be realized. The grab has its own hydraulic system, which requires external access to the power supply for control. The work efficiency is very high, and it can work continuously for 24 hours.
The price of hydraulic grabs is higher than that of remote control grabs, and the maintenance work in the later period is also more. Therefore, many customers meet the conditions for choosing remote control grabs. They will give priority to remote control grabs, which can save capital costs and later maintenance costs and time.
