Our people are continuously working to develop and build the most efficient and cost-effective grabs. Besides the standardised product range, Verstegen also develops unique solutions for specific situations and customer needs. VERSTEGEN PHILOSOPHY For fast and efficient unloading, a grab is one of the most important tools. In order to get high unloading rates, the grab must be extremely reliable with a high productive capacity. Furthermore each grab should be custom built for the material it has to handle and the unloading situation in which it has to operate. HIGH CAPACITIES AND LOW DEAD WEIGHTS In order to obtain the highest productive capacity, a grab should have the highest possible volume without unnecessary dead weight. This is only possible with a good and well proven design and the use of the best possible materials. To increase strength and minimise wear, each Verstegen grab is provided with shells completely made of high tensile wear resistant steel. The friction in the articulation points is absolute minimal because of an excellent bearing system.
