The UNIDACHS
2 Series

Ripper hooks are suitable for all areas where a targeted use of force concentrated on one tooth is required.

Use in the metallurgy
The ripper hook is used for breaking out and cleaning ladles, electric furnaces and converters directly in the extreme hot temperatures up to 1,400°C.

Mining applications
The ripper hook is used for scaling and tearing rock and stone. The tool has a replaceable wear tip made of special material.

Advantages:

• Use in hot working areasExchangeable tooth tipQuick fitment to the telescopic boom

Application metallurgy
The porous plug pusher is an attachment tool and is fastened directly to the ripper hook. It is used to push out the purging plug in ladles when hot. The pusher has a replaceable point made of special material suitable for the hot area.

Advantages:

• Use in hot areasExchangeable pointQuick fitment to the ripper hook by means of 2 pins

Application Metallurgy
The tap hole drill is attached directly to the ripper hook by means of 2 pins and is used to drill out the worn tap hole sleeve on converters, precisely and in a short time. The replaceable drill heads are equipped with hard-faced wear blades and can be easily and quickly attached to the drill rod.

Advantages:

• Exchangeable drill heads
• Quick fitment to the ripper hook, simply by means of 2 pins
• The drill tube length and drill tip diameter can be chosen to fit the requirements of the converter

Use in the metallurgy
The ripper bucket is used for cleaning blast furnace channels, excavating materials in electric arc furnaces and cleaning the pits under the BOF vessels.

Advantages:

• Quick fitment to the telescopic boomExchangeable tooth tipsAdditional ripper tooth to loosen solid material

Application Metallurgy
Hydraulic hammers are used for breaking refractory materials and linings in e.g. converters, ladles, electric furnaces and blast furnace runners in mainly colder condition.

Use in mining/tunnelling/demolition
Use for scaling in underground mining operations and for breaking out material when enlarging tunnel cross-sections, tunnel rehabilitation and the construction of caverns and cross-cuts.

Advantages:

• Use in temperature ranges up to 250°C due to additionally modified steelworks version.
• Additional equipment available to reduce dust exposure when working underground and in tunnels
• Can be attached directly to the ripper hook or telescopic boom

Application Metallurgy
The hydraulically operated drum cutters are used to remove refractory material in blast furnace runners and to profile monolithic refractories.

Use in mining/tunnelling/demolition/construction industry
Used for underground mining work as well as for cutting out material when enlarging tunnel cross-sections, tunnel renovation and the construction of caverns and cross-cuts.
The cutter is equipped with wear-resistant, replaceable cutter teeth.

Advantages:

• Precise workCan be attached directly to the ripper hook or telescopic boom

Application cunstruction industry: 
Buckets pick up loosened or loose material, they are suitable for excavation work at depth, e.g. for pits or trenches, available in various sizes with or without teeth.

Advantages:

• Can be attached directly to the telescopic boom or via quick couplerVarious versions
