A Guide to Various Excavation Buckets

 

Professionals know that excavators will choose different attachments for different occasions, and common attachments include buckets, breaks, crackers, hydraulic tongs, etc. Only by choosing the right attachments can you get the effective working ability for various working conditions. Only by choosing the right attachments, can we get the effective working ability for various working conditions. The following section describes some of the most common types of excavator buckets.

 

1. Standard Bucket

The standard bucket is common standard bucket for small and medium-sized excavators, which adopt standard plate thickness and has no obvious reinforcing process on the bucket. Characterized by: large bucket capacity, large bucket mouth area, large stacking surface, so it has high filling coefficient, high working efficiency and low production cost. Suitable for general clay excavation and sand, soil, gravel excavation, also known as earthwork bucket. Disadvantages: due to the small thickness of the plate, the lack of reinforced plate, anti-wear plate and other strengthening process, the life is shorter.

2. Reinforced Bucket

Reinforced bucket is a bucket that adopts high-strength wear-resistant steel material to reinforce the high-stress and wear-prone parts on the original basis of the standard bucket, which not only inherits all the advantages of the standard bucket but also improves the strength and wear-resistant, and the service life is greatly prolonged. It is suitable for important work such as digging hard soil, loading soft stones, gravel and crushed stone.

3. Rock Bucket

Rock bucket is made of thickened plate, reinforce plate at the bottom, side guards, protective plate, high strength bucket teeth holder, suitable for heavy work environment such as loading of stone, sub-hard stone, weathered stone, hard stone and ore after blasting. Widely used in ore mining and other harsh working conditions.

4. Mud Bucket

Excavator mud bucket is also known as dredging bucket, no teeth, large width, mud bucket is very suitable for the need for larger capacity of slopes and other plane repair, river, ditch and other dredging work.

5. Tilting Bucket

The tilting bucket has all the features of the mud bucket, but it can also be controlled by the cylinder to rotate the bucket with a maximum tilting angle of 45°,so that it can be operated without changing the position of the excavator, and it is easy to accomplish the precise work that cannot be done by the ordinary bucket. It is not suitable for hard soil, rocky soil excavation and other medium operating environment.

6. Trapezoidal Bucket

Excavator trapezoidal bucket has various sizes, widths and shapes, such as triangular or trapezoidal. It is suitable for water conservancy, highway, agriculture and pipeline trenching and other operations. It is characterized by one-time molding and high working efficiency.

7. Loose Soil Bucket

Excavator loosening bucket is installed with high strength loosening teeth on the bucket to achieve greater digging strength, loosening and digging can be completed in one time. It is suitable for crushing, digging and loading of hard soil, sub-stone and weathered stone. The disadvantage is that the bucket capacity is small.

8. Shell Bucket

The working principle of Shell Bucket is to drive the shell body to open and merge through the expansion and contraction of oil cylinder to grab the materials, so as to complete the work. It is suitable for excavation of foundation pit of construction base, deep pit excavator and unloading and loading of loose materials such as coal and sand, especially for excavation or loading operation in some restricted space. The disadvantage is that the digging force is weak, not suitable for some hard land ground, and can only grab loose materials.

9. Multi-Purpose Bucket

Multi-Purpose bucket can realize the function of loading, scraping and clamping operation during the working process, and it has all the functions of mud bucket, rotary bucket, earthwork bucket and other buckets. And using hydraulic cylinders, it can automatically discharge materials without turning the bucket, convenient and quick. The disadvantage is that it is not suitable for trenching, trenching and other heavy working environment, and it favors the technical flow.

10. Screening Bucket

It is suitable for separating the excavation of looser materials, and the excavation and separation are completed at one time, which is widely used in municipal, agricultural, forestry, water conservancy, and earth-moving stone works.
