Cutting and grinding wheels from Tyrolit are proving a lasting success for users carrying out maintenance work at Gran in southern Germany. As a traditional, family-run company in Bavaria, Gran specializes in gravel extraction with dragline buckets mounted on duty cycle crawler cranes.
The very hard materials from which dragline buckets are made pose a particular challenge when it comes to maintenance work. The highly wear-resistant Hardox or manganese steel used requires powerful grinding tools for processing. The aim is to remove wear, rust and surface damage from the dragline buckets in order to restore their performance as quickly as possible and thus reduce idle times of the duty cycle crawler crane to a minimum.
