Wood Chips Mechanical Grab
High-Capacity Mechanical Grab for Wood Chips, Biomass and Lightweight Bulk Materials
Biomass Facilities • Wood Chip Terminals • Pulp & Paper Industry • Bulk Storage Yards • Renewable Energy Plants
AL Industries manufactures Wood Chips Mechanical Grabs engineered for efficient handling of wood chips, biomass and other low-density bulk materials. The high-volume shell design enables fast loading cycles, reduced material loss and reliable operation across biomass, renewable energy and bulk storage facilities.
AL Industries manufactures mechanical orange peel grabs for handling scrap metal, rocks, boulders and difficult bulk cargo. Available in 2-rope and 4-rope configurations.
Product Overview
The Wood Chips Mechanical Grab is a specialized bulk material handling solution designed for loading, unloading and transferring large volumes of lightweight biomass materials.
Unlike conventional grabs designed for dense cargo, the Wood Chips Mechanical Grab utilizes an optimized high-capacity shell design that maximizes volume per cycle while maintaining efficient material retention.
Its robust rope-operated construction makes it suitable for continuous operation in biomass terminals, pulp and paper mills, renewable energy facilities and wood chip export operations where productivity and reliability are essential.
