Attaching Value in Waste Management - Weldco-Beales Manufacturing

WBM is widely known for creating long-lasting, heavy-duty attachments for a variety of industries, for over 75 years. What you might not know, is that we have a unique ability to customize attachments to meet very specific job requirements – this project is a great example!

A Waste Management facility in Northern Alberta required an attachment that could sort through a variety of general waste materials, with the ability to extract smaller metal pieces, preventing them from ending up in a shredder or other machines, causing damage to the equipment.

Excavator Scrap Waste Grapple — This WBM Scrap Waste Grapple can be used in waste handling operations or in conjunction with optional electro magnet to extract / sort steel from general waste materials.

This Scrap Waste Grapple, custom-made by WBM, accomplishes just that. Made with a 48″ wide, tip-to-tip jaw shape to pick up scattered waste and debris, this grapple can also be outfitted with a heavy-duty electromagnet for handling ferrous scrap metal and smaller metal particles. The recessed lugging is designed to optimize the grapple lift height.

SPECIFICATIONS:

This grapple has a maximum capacity of 6 sq. ft. while using the magnet, and 9 sq. ft. without.
90°, 180°, or 360° continuous grapple rotation available.
Open dimensions: 121”; Closed: 66-1/5″
Height: 60″ (71-15/16″ including pin-grabber coupler)
Total weight with magnet: 5,070lbs (3,640lbs without)
