The Action® Impactors™ is designed to remove risers quickly and efficiently. Shock absorbing handles and cushion assembly provide long life and less wear and tear on the operator. Major feature is the ability to dry fire the Impactor™ without damage to the machine, a major advantage over competitive models. One machine can replace several people using sledge hammers.
The Impactor™ is operator-friendly (ergonomic grips, shock cushioning), and are built to withstand the rigors of continuous foundry use. Manually operated Impactors™ are typically suspended by a chain-fall hoist, supported by a jib crane or similar device.
Most Productive
The Impactor™ is capable of rapid firing, which saves time and keeps the operator working.
Most Reliable
Uses a one-piece rod and piston, eliminating the inherent weakness of an assembled multi-component rod and piston assembly used by some competitors. This means greater reliability and energy transfer.
Dry-fire safe
Action® Impactors™ have been tested under sustained and rapid dry-fire situations. The Action® Impactor™ did not fail after 800,000 dry-fires. The competition recommends not dry-firing their units. It is important to note that the unit is essentially dry-fired whether a riser is broken or missed, because the momentum of the rod propels it into the cushion piston and the energy must be absorbed.
Designed for maximum up time
Highest quality components and innovative designs are assembled and arranged for easy service.
Continuous Research and Development
Continuing R&D provides the Customer with a superior product. Our years of experience in Impactor™ design have resulted in the development of many service life-enhancing features, including specially formulated cushion piston material, superior performing seals, improved rod hardening processes, protective guards, shock-absorbed handle bar assemblies, and several other time-tested features.
Special Cushion Chamber
Protects Impactor™ when operator misses target. This feature is an exclusive design—a vital feature that prolongs the product’s life.
