per kit from Edbro
A NEW RANGE of multi-stal rams for three-way tippers introduced today at Kelv Hall by Edbro.
Supplied as a ready-to-f assembly, the design has th control ram housed in tb-frame which embodies )oms for the side and id-tipping pivots and carries underfloor tank containing le hydraulic oil.
With the kit for the YD !ries, as the new assembly is iown, comes an integral pto Id multi-cylinder hydraulic imp together with all piping, alves and controls.
There are six basic sizes of D tipping gear with lifting. apacities from 5 to 20 tons. Ine ram with a hardened all-end lifts the body near its entre at a maximum operatig pressure of 17,250kN/sqm ?,500psi).
Telescopic rams with from wo to eight stages are lcluded in the Edbro YD ange with the actual exhibit t Glasgow being a four-stage ype with a stroke of 1,398mm 551n) and a lift capacity of 16 ans.
By making the base of the ram detachable, the assembly can be stripped from underneath without raising the body.
As far as the bodywork is concerned, the Edbro recommendation is for the ram socket to be attached to a thrust plate spanned by channel members over the width of the body or the body runners. Chassis reinforcement is automatically provided by the Edbro sub-frame.
