Quick answerRotating grapple saw for 10–30 t excavators. Grips and cuts trees and logs in one pass – ideal for arborist and forestry work.
The grapple saw holds a stem with a rotating grapple and cuts it with a hydraulic chain saw mounted below the jaws. Trees can be dismantled section by section from the ground, keeping crews out of the drop zone along roads, railways and power lines.

Yes, it works as a rotating log grapple.
A 360° rotating grapple needs two circuits – one to open/close and one to rotate. If your machine has only one auxiliary circuit we can supply a solenoid diverter valve kit.
Orange-peel grapples are the standard for loose scrap and bulk material; sorting grapples are better for mixed demolition waste and recycling.
