Innovative Attachment Provides Versatility

Written by Chelsea Newman on June 27, 2010 – 4:57 am -

After years of innovation, farm equipment designers have created a multipurpose grapple that efficiently accomplishes user’s trying tasks.

The hydraulic grapple rake, mounted on a dirt bucket by either a bolt-on method or welding, allows tractors the ability to pick up both heavy-sized loads and small debris with the same tool.

An Adaptable Tool

Dusty L. Weiss, of Construction Associates of Spokane Inc., ordered the grapple for the company’s tractor in June 2009, and said it’s a great innovative tool for the company’s everyday needs.

“I recently had to remove materials from the company’s driveway,” Weiss said. “Although I could have removed it myself, it would have been extremely inefficient; the bucket grapple allowed me to quickly accomplish the task.”

Whether agriculture or demolition work is required, Weiss said the bucket grapple is an effective solution when hoping to save money and time.

In spite of the grapple’s many positive attributes, Weiss made a few suggestions on how to improve the attachment’s design.

His 36 inch across attachment weighs approximately 200 lbs. – a characteristic which reduces the amount of weight carried per load. “As a tractor user, you are often looking to take on more than you can handle,” Weiss said. “A lighter grapple would improve productivity; you could pick up heavier loads if the grapple itself were lighter.”  Read more...

Hybrid Car – Overview

Written by Ryan Array on June 25, 2010 – 9:12 am -

Hybrid cars are one of the latest break-throughs in the auto industry.
