Main Applications

Straw grabs are mainly used for:

  • Handling agricultural straw, hay, and crop residues

  • Grabbing and transferring lightweight biomass materials

  • Feeding biomass processing and energy systems

Its design ensures stable performance when dealing with soft, loose, and low-density materials that are difficult to handle with conventional grabs.


Typical Application Scenarios

Straw grabs are widely applied in:

  • Biomass power plants for fuel feeding and material transfer

  • Agricultural processing facilities handling straw and plant waste

  • Biomass storage yards for loading and unloading operations

  • Renewable energy projects using agricultural residues as fuel

They are particularly suitable for continuous operation environments where high-volume, lightweight material handling is required.


Key Features & Advantages

  • Large-capacity design for lightweight materials
    The grab bucket is designed with a wide opening and optimized tine arrangement, allowing efficient handling of bulky but lightweight biomass.

  • Lightweight yet durable structure
    Reduced self-weight improves crane efficiency while maintaining sufficient structural strength for long-term use.

  • Optimized for soft and low-density materials
    Specially shaped grab arms minimize material loss when handling straw, hay, and plant waste.

  • High handling efficiency
    Larger grabbing volume per cycle increases productivity in biomass and agricultural applications.

  • Compatible with various crane systems
    Can be used with overhead cranes, gantry cranes, and material handling cranes in biomass facilities.


Why Choose a Straw Grab

Compared with standard grab buckets, a straw grab is specifically engineered for biomass material characteristics, offering higher efficiency, better material retention, and lower operating costs in renewable energy and agricultural processing environments.
