VTN was born in 1973. The only product they manufactured at the start of their journey was construction buckets. They went on to launch the first grapple and demolition tools in 1988. Today, VTN specializes in all types of demolition and material handling tools viz Concrete Crusher, Pulverizer, Multi processor, Demolition Grapple, Stone grab, Log grab. However, the absolute protagonist of their demolition line is the CI-Revolution shear
The VTN shear can almost do everything that its name suggests. While it is perfect for cutting and recovery of ferrous material, it also finds natural use in both aerial and ground demolition. It’s versatility also allows the cutting of multiple materials such as tires, cables, armatures and even small beams. Mounted in the place of a bucket or arm, the Cl-R hydraulic shear is offered in 13 models for excavators of different sizes.
There are many technical features that explain the success of this model. The shear structure is based on a heavy-duty frame made with the best high-strength steel, which allows significant weight reductions, optimizing performance and maintaining characteristics unchanged in all load combinations. The heavy-duty philosophy is also applied to rotation which sees the use of large diameter washers, a choice that allows the use of the shear in the most demanding and extreme situations. The work is also facilitated by the presence of protection valves in flow regulators that ensure easy and precise positioning. Also noteworthy is the overturned hydraulic cylinder which, with its large bore, guarantees excellent performance and high protection of the rod from accidental impacts.
The performance is also guaranteed by the adoption of the Speed Valve, which reduces the working time through oil regeneration circuit mounted on the cylinder. Shrink-Fit technology for the fulcrum pin that allows the optimal alignment of the movable jaw with the fixed one, guaranteeing the best performance and maintaining the best cutting precision.
The adoption of tampons of double guide (one on each side) aimed at preventing the flexion of the jaw ensuring high precision and cutting efficiency. Operational performance is ensured by the interchangeable and reversible cutting blades four times before the need for replacement. Maintenance is very easy as the hydraulic system is easily accessible.
Material Handling Attachments: Sometimes operators need a hand, moving materials around the jobsite. VTN grapple buckets turn a excavator from a dig-only machine into one that’s capable of lifting and shifting materials around the work area. This can be useful in a variety of situations on construction jobsites, including land-clearing and demolition tasks.
When the project requires lifting and moving items of various sizes & shapes, hydraulic grapples come in quite handy. These attachments offer a bigger and tighter grasp on materials, and some even offer the ability to rotate. The most popular style of grapple for excavators is a fixed grapple and boasts two jaws — one with three tines and one with two tines. Rotating attachments like grapples have become more popular for use with mini excavators and backhoes. Accessories such as tiltrotators further expand a grapple’s versatility and can improve the excavator operator’s productivity.
Grapple attachments can be used for handling Rocks, Boulders, Scrap, Logs and also for precision work like placement of Tertrapods. Grapples can also be used for demolition of brick structures.
VTN gives enormous importance to after-sales assistance. “Beyond the quality of all our equipment, service is our strength.” When a company buys VTN equipment it is always followed up with quality product support, because the sale can never be an end in itself. Suretech looks after VTN product support in the Indian sub-continent.
