LATCHING MECHANISM

 

PNEUMATICALLY-OPERATED MECHANICAL LATCH

If there is air failure at the front end of the cylinder when it is fully in-stroked, the latch will engage the piston and rod assembly preventing it from out-stroking.

 

Benefits:

  • Easier and faster superstructure installation and removal = money and time saved
  • Avoids crust breaker destruction = money and time saved
  • Avoids breaker point degradation = money saved
