Ripping with large dozers in mining, aggregate, or heavy construction applications is one of the most demanding conditions for ground engaging tools. ESCO's latest ripping innovation, the Nexsys Ripper System, delivers advanced performance on D11 dozers.
The attachment was developed using finite element analysis and discrete element modelling to increase system strength and stability. This resulted in increased reliability, safer in-field replacement, and better performance than conventional ripper systems.
The upgraded nose has higher strength and stability to withstand ripping at its toughest, while the optimized point profile assists with material flow and is configured for better penetration while maintaining sharpness throughout its service life. A sealed hammerless lock simplifies point replacement.
Major system attributes include increased durability and reduced maintenance costs. This makes it an attractive option for mining, aggregate, and heavy construction applications.
The Nexsys Ripper System has been extensively field tested to ensure optimal performance in demanding conditions. With its advanced technology and robust design, this attachment is poised to revolutionize the way large dozers rip through tough materials.
