Bluegrass is the world leader in robotic hammering.  Our operators and unequaled equipment resources of small to large Brokk robotic hammers have been supporting industrial plant maintenance and capital projects around the country for 28 years.

Our experience in steel mills, refineries, power plants, pulp and paper mills, allow us to best dovetail our breaking solutions to your project requirements whether they are:  high productivity, small footprint, limited or remote access or hostile environments with zero emissions.

Bluegrass’ electric/hydraulic robotic hammering services allow for breaking or modification of any concrete structure into any size or shape even if heavily reinforced, as well as refractory castables.

Our breaking specialists operate with 40 hour hazwoper, 10 hour OSHA, Radworker, in addition to plant or site specific training.  Daily safety meetings incorporating job hazard analysis are mandatory.  Background checked, drug tested and US citizens, committed people are the backbone of our demolition company.

With over 30 Brokk robotic hammers, Bluegrass can rapidly mobilize the required equipment resources to satisfy your project needs.

Finger tip control allows precision breaking in all dimensions, for through wall or roof penetrations as well as massive foundation removals.  The small machine footprint permits for ganging machines in tight areas for maximum production.  Remote operation by infrared or cable control enables the robot to perform hazardous work while keeping the operator safely distant.  With available deployment from suspended platforms or elevated slabs our robotic hammering machines can be craned to tackle any obstacle.

Recent Modifications and Breaking:

Cement - baghouses, electric motor foundations, ID fan foundations, kiln foundations, and structural piers.

Steel Mills - caster foundations, cooling beds, mill stand foundations, pickle line foundations, re-heat furnaces, compressor pumps, refractory, and roll mill upgrades.

Pulp and Paper Mills - floors, paper machine rebuilds, pit creations, tile chests, u-drains, kilns, base plates, and wood yard foundations.

Power Plants - ball mills, cooling beds, ID fan foundations, pulverizer foundations, silos, and wet scrubbers.
