For example, the all-stainless, reversible blade can easily cut through 20mm (3/4in) synthetic line, wood and plastic poles, 1/4 “ fiberglass rods, and most cables to 20mm. The possibilities are broad and include many Search and Rescue, military, and commercial applications where freeing objects from entanglement, releasing instrumentation, and taking various samples of material are commonly required. The Cutter Head option for the LBV Grabber can be interchanged in just a few minutes with the Parallel Jaw, Interlocking Jaw, and standard 3-Jaw attachments also available for the LBV Grabber Arm. In addition, the SeaBotix Grabber arm is one of the most economical and useful options in the mini- and micro-class ROV market. Combined with the LBV umbilical’s 45kg (100lb) working load, the Grabber Arm can also lift heavy objects to the water’s surface. Even with an all-aluminum and stainless steel design and the longest list of options in its class, the SeaBotix Grabber arm costs hundreds of dollars less than plastic manipulators found on other portable ROVs. In addition, every SeaBotix LBV and Grabber arm includes a 24-month Standard Warranty |
SeaBotix Inc., the worldwide leader in Mini-ROV technology, introduces a significant new option for the SeaBotix LBV Grabber — our revolutionary Cutter Head attachment. Typical cutting tools on Mini- and Micro-Class ROVs transfer the piston motion of an electric motor into perpendicular motion in a claw. This results in only a small fraction of the full force being applied to the cut. The LBV Cutter Head applies the linear force of the motor directly into cutting motion, like a guillotine, resulting in amazing cutting capabilities far beyond those expected in an ROV weighing just 11kg (24lb).
