Pneumatic hammer

Application Metallurgy
Pneumatic hammers are used for breaking out refractory materials and linings in e.g. converters, ladles, electric furnaces and blast furnace runners in hot condition.

Use in mining/tunnelling/demolition
Use for scaling in underground mining operations and for breaking out material when enlarging tunnel cross-sections, tunnel rehabilitation and the construction of caverns and cross-cuts.
Pneumatic hammers are connected directly to the plant air supply network.

Advantages:

• Use in higher temperature ranges up to 600°C
• Automatic start and stop function to reduce wear on the hammer and compressor
• Quick replacement of the chisel by means of a chisel pin
