The special feature of the new slewing gear is the up to 1.8-fold increase in torque! The ratio of pinion to slewing ring is responsible for the power transmission.

Furthermore, the new slewing gear has a much higher torsional holding torque than a conventional rotator. The continuous support bolt is a key safety feature and is also doubly secured.

If the grapple is open, it can rotate endlessly in any boom position without collision! The mechanical locking pin can be used to prevent the gripper from swinging up and down. The function is then only controlled via the double-acting cylinder.
