Miband EVO Grapples

Miband EVO grapples are an all-new product. Leaving nothing to chance, we designed every detail. These grapples are the result of several years of testing and study in the field with forestry professionals.

The result? A new grapple concept:

• wrap-around profile to promote log rolling
• enhancement of the grapple’s power lever by eliminating dead center in the open position due to offset centers of rotation
• high capacity and power even at maximum openings
• optimal arrangement for material collection and release maximizing each working phase

• Perfection of material collection and release
• High capacity and maximum compactness
• Gripping kinematics with movement parallel to the ground that prevents the collection of unwanted material such as soil
• Optimized gripper wing profile for unimpeded log rolling
• Movements supported by high-strength bushings and solid pins for long service life
• Mechanical stops on both opening and closing for increased structural strength
• Strenx 700 guaranteed material

Our grapples start from an opening of 1.05m up to 2.6m, in 3 versions:

• EVO: The only ones with an inner wing (perfect for penetration into the pile), a wider outer wing (ensures tidier collection) and a double power lever (for greater gripping force).
• EVO A: With free wings, no end tine. Reworked with shaped reinforcements to innervate the structure and with curvatures to aid penetration. Ideal for serving chippers.
• EVO R: With additional reinforcements to equip large excavators. All models can be ordered in R version.
