Unique Cartilage-link Structure And Robust Bearing Structure Of Sterling Ripper

Maximizing productivity and minimizing down time by on-site parts replacement
Minimizing vibration transmitted to excavator and operator even at hard-rock
The bigger class of Ripper, the higher productivity
Rigid and higher durability at hard-rock job site
Low maintenance

Comparison Chart

Available equipment for rock hardness

Big class Sterling Ripper can work well at hard rock without problems most vibratory rippers have, thanks to its cutting-edge technology, Unique cartilage-Link

Sterling Ripper VS Hydraulic breaker

The bigger class of Sterling Ripper, the much higher productivity and hydraulic breaker up to soft medium hard-rock and perform well at hard-rock job site compared to hyd. breaker

Strong Points Of Sterling Ripper

Higher productivity than hydraulic breaker

2 ~ 8 times better productivity than hyd. breaker depending on type of rocks

More powerful than other vibratory rippers

Unique structure and design specially bigger and centered eccentric weight
Sterling Ripper most powerful Ripper in the same class

Selective tool options – Three tools for one Ripper

Chisel type for hard rock, tooth type for soft & mid hard-rock and Compactor type for compacting ground
Three optional tools enables Sterling Ripper to offer wider selections of application than competitors at rock breaking job sites

Minimum vibration to excavator and operator at hard-rock

Unique Cartilage-link of Sterling Ripper allows more powerful striking force but less vibration transmitted to excavator and operator
Less impact to excavator and less fatigue to operator

Minimum noise

Sterling Ripper’s Unique Cartilage-link structure technology allows minimum noise at max. 90db and downtown building construction can be done without restrictions

Easy on-site maintenance & low maintenance cost

Concise structure of components and structure
Most parts can be replaced at job site
No need to return it to repair shop
Less number of parts than competitors enable low maintenance cost
Maximum productivity can be achieved by reducing down time by on site parts replacement and fast tooth replacement

Under water operation without special devices

All kinds of work under water can be done without any expensive and complicated preparations

Hyd. Breaker vs Vibratory Ripper

Vibratory Ripper’s advantages compared to Hyd. Breaker

Higher productivity than hydraulic breaker

Up to 5 times higher productivity than hyd. breaker at less hardness rock formation
The bigger class of Ripper, the higher productivity
The less hard rock formation, the higher productivity
Constant high bpm by vibratory power

Higher productivity than hydraulic breaker

10〜30% less noise than hyd. Breaker
Less noise(under 90dB) than silent hyd. Breaker
The less hard rock formation, the less noise
Minimizing noise at job site allows demolition work in downtown or noise restricted area

Under water operation without special devices

All kinds of work under water can be done without any expensive and complicated preparations.
No need to invest on renting or purchasing air compressors. ex) USD150 〜 450 per day
No need to spend fuel cost for air compressors. ex) 50liter diesel per hour x 8 hours = USD400 ~ 500 per day

Vibratory Ripper’s draw back compared to Hyd. Breaker

Lower productivity than hydraulic breaker at hard-rock job sites
Frequent breakdown in operation at hard-rock job sites due to repulsion energy and constant fatigue to links and bearings of Ripper
Impact or damage to excavator and increasing operator’s fatigue due to vibration and repulsion transmitted to the excavator and the operator

Solution of Sterling Ripper for Vibratory Ripper’s draw back

Solution for lower productivity than hydraulic breaker at hard-rock job sites

Solution for frequent breakdown in operation at hard-rock job sites due to repulsion energy and constant fatigue to links and bearings of Ripper
Solution for impact or damage to excavator and increasing operator’s fatigue due to vibration and repulsion transmitted to the excavator and the operator

Conventional Ripper:

Main drawback of the link bearing structure
The links and bearings break easily working at hard-rock job sites and Ripper should be sent to maintenance shop to fix it. It takes a lot time and cost which affect total operating cost eventually

Sterling Ripper:
Main advantage of the cartilage link type
Sterling Ripper has adopted damper cushions with a link type instead of link bearing type. It is a very simple process of replacing cushions by simple unscrewing and screwing covers on-site, which allows can save a huge down time and maintenance cost

Conventional Ripper’s bearings vs Sterling Ripper’s Bearing

Conventional Ripper’s eccentric weight vs Sterling Ripper’s eccentric weight

Solution for lower productivity than hydraulic breaker at hard-rock job sites – By Chisel type Sterling Ripper
Sterling Ripper offers three options in Tooth type; medium hard-rock, Chisel type for hard-rock for hard-rock, and Compactor type for compacting ground. Single Sterling Ripper body has three optional tools! you can simply change it at site any time depending on rock types and various application!
