The digging buckets with two vertical cylinders of the BMV/P line are very robust tools, designed to withstand the toughest working conditions. They have a sturdy structure, a well-proven construction and a jaw design that allows an excellent penetration even in compact soil. These grabs are therefore suitable for large earth moving machines and material handlers up to 35 tons of weight.
Loading aggregates and digging.
Clamshell buckets are gripping devices formed by two shells in synchronous movement, put in motion by hydraulic cylinders. In general terms, these attachments are suitable to load of gravel, sand and earth, or to the dig hard soil and compact surfaces. Depending on the constructive geometry and accessories, clamshell buckets can have a specific application. They can be mounted on a wide range of machines, such as truck cranes, backhoe loaders, mini excavators, agricultural machines, stationary cranes, material handlers, harbour cranes, rail road excavators and so on.
A complete range of accessories.
Clamshell buckets can mount a full range of accessories, which can make them suitable for specific applications. The most common optional are hydraulic rotators, mechanical rotators (free revolving), bolt-on digging teeth, anti-wear counter-blades, scrapers (or ejectors) to clean the shells from mud and extensions of different lengths.
