Atlas Copco CC3300

Sept. 28, 2010

Atlas Copco's CC3300 hydraulic-jaw attachment, with an operating pressure of 5,100 psi, is designed for use with carriers in the 30- to 50-metric-ton weight class. CC3300 is available with both universal and steel-cutting jaws. The universal jaws open to 40 inches and deliver 441 tons of cutting force; the steel-cutting jaws have an opening of 17 inches and provide the same 441 tons of force. The company says the tool uses a separate hydraulic cylinder for each of its moving jaws, a feature which ensures consistently high forces.
