THE 3 STEPS FOR A GOOD INSTALLATION
First; position of the gripper:
The number of grippers depends on position and length of the boards
Second; what kind of gripper to use:
Each lumber industry has his own specifications
There are different internal and external designs to fit with each needs:
- External: The bodies of the grippers are made with different materials and design to fit with the working environment
- Flush: The most common one. Available in steel or aluminum
- Pan: Recommanded in the sawmills or pallet industries or where extreme conditions exist. The perimeter flange provides are very strong and safe design in case of collision
- Internal: All are equiped with the Joulin Wave System™ for energy savings and non sensitivity to dust or moisture
Third; lifting capacity:
Once we know the lumber specifications, we will choose the number of grippers and design
Different foam materials patterns and holes sizes are available
What is the Grade?
Industrial: Rough lumber or panels
Severe: Heavy dust present
