eiengineering Rock Digging Bucket Design
The majority of
eiengineering
excavator buckets are
characterized by the double radius backplate. The
majority of competitor’s buckets have a single
radius backplate which, while reducing the
manufacturing cost of the bucket, also reduces its
performance. Because of the bucket design, the flat
bottom of the single radius bucket ploughs the
ground creating more strain on the excavator and
reducing bucket fills.
The double radius shape also allows the
eiengineering
bucket to follow the teeth through the
cut, promoting the efficient digging and loading of
materials into the bucket, which results in buckets
that load easier and fill quicker than the majority
of conventional excavator buckets.
The bucket top box is designed to provide maximum
strength through the bucket from the hangers for
maximum digging power
Tapered design reduces bucket drag ensuring maximum
efficiency as only the bucket teeth and side cutting
edges are impacting the cut
The double radius design also ensures the load is
kept high in the bucket maximizing capacity. The
double radius offer greater bucket depth increasing
capacity by around 10% over traditional buckets.
Shorter bucket pin-to-point improves penetration and
force required for the cut.
eiengineering
Rock Buckets are specifically designed
for the application with wear packages fitted to
sufficiently armour the bucket to offer the most
abrasion resistance possible.
Our wear packages include inner and outer bucket
liners, side plate protection, heel blocks, shrouds,
carbide blocks, hard facing, arrow head edge
protection and are provided with a wide range of
teeth and adaptors suitable for the heavy rock
excavation environment
All
eiengineering
buckets are made from Bisalloy,
which is 3.1 times stronger than mild steel. This
ensures more strength and less weight which means
greater capacities, less fuel consumption and less
load on the excavator.
The Benefits
The benefits you will experience are:
Earn more money moving more material - greater
payload per bucket load – 10% more in every fill
than a traditional single radius bucket, without
losing any digging ability.
Reduce fuel costs – because the bucket digs easier
with less drag, fuel costs will be reduced
Save time – more bucket capacity means less time
behind the controls, saving fuel and employee costs
Reduced servicing costs because the excavator is not
working as hard
Bisalloy construction means longer working life of
the bucket and less downtime carrying out expensive
repairs or modifications
What you get as standard
All of our buckets are delivered with teeth and
adaptors, bucket pins and side cutters designed to
protect the side cutting edges from premature wear.
Teeth and adaptors available are Hensley, Esco,
Caterpillar, Keech
