Gradall Forklift Part

Gradall Forklift Parts - The Gradall excavator was the idea of two brothers Koop and ray Ferwerda. The excavator was established In the 1940's all through WWII, when there was a scarcity of labourers. The brothers faced the problems of a depleted labor force because of the war. As partners in their Cleveland, Ohio construction business referred to as Ferwerda-Werba-Ferwerda they lacked the available laborers in order to perform the delicate tasks of finishing and grading on their freeway projects. The Ferwerda brothers decided to build an equipment that would save their company by making the slope grading task easier, more efficient and less manual.

The first excavator prototype consisted of a device with two industrial beams on a rotating platform fixed to a used truck. There was a telescopic cylinder which was used to move the beams backward and forward. This allowed the fixed blade at the far end of the beams to push or pull the dirt. Before long enhancing the first design, the brothers made a triangular boom to be able to add more strength. Moreover, they added a tilt cylinder which let the boom rotate 45 degrees in either direction. A cylinder was placed at the back of the boom, powering a long push rod to enable the equipment to be equipped with either a blade or a bucket attachment.

1992 marked a momentous year for Gradall with their launch of XL Series hydraulics, the most dramatic change in the company's excavators ever since their creation. These top-of-the-line hydraulics systems allowed Gradall excavators to deliver high productivity and comparable power on a realistic level to traditional excavators. The XL Series put an end to the first Gradall equipment power drawn from gear pumps and low pressure hydraulics. These conventional systems efficiently handled finishing work and grading but had a difficult time competing for high productivity jobs.

Gradall's new XL Series excavators showed more ability to lift and dig materials. With this series, the models were produced together with a piston pump, high-pressure system of hydraulics which showed distinct improvement in boom and bucket breakout forces. The XL Series hydraulics system was even developed with a load-sensing capability. Conventional excavators make use of an operator to be able to pick a working-mode; where the Gradall system can automatically adjust the hydraulic power meant for the task at hand. This makes the operator's whole job easier and also saves fuel at the same time.

When their XL Series hydraulics came onto the market, Gradall was basically thrust into the highly competitive market of machinery designed to tackle pavement removal, excavation, demolition as well as several industrial tasks. Marketability was further improved with their telescoping boom because of its exclusive ability to better position attachments and to work in low overhead areas.
