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.
