Versatile Clamshell Buckets for Precision Grabbing and Handling

Product Description

The YuanPeng Hydraulic Clamshell Bucket is a high-performance attachment designed to transform your standard excavator into a versatile material handling machine. Engineered for precision and efficiency, its unique two-halved "clamshell" mechanism opens and closes via the excavator's hydraulic system, providing exceptional control for grabbing, lifting, and placing loose or bulk materials. It is the ideal solution for applications where traditional buckets fall short.

Key Features & Benefits 

• Hydraulic Precision & Control

• Benefit: Direct hydraulic cylinder operation allows for powerful, smooth, and precise opening and closing. Operators can control the grab force and positioning with pinpoint accuracy, enabling clean picks and minimal spillage.

• Versatile & Efficient Material Handling

• Benefit: The vertical closing action is perfect for efficiently biting into stockpiles and handling a wide range of materials, from sand and gravel to demolition waste and biomass. It achieves a high fill factor and is excellent for working in confined spaces.

• Robust, Long-Lasting Construction

• Benefit: Fabricated from high-strength, abrasion-resistant steel (such as Hardox or equivalent). Critical stress areas are reinforced with wear plates and robust hinges, ensuring durability and a long service life under constant cycling and heavy loads.

• Tight-Sealing Design

• Benefit: Machined and reinforced cutting edges ensure the two halves meet tightly, significantly reducing material loss during lifting and transport. This leads to greater efficiency, cost savings, and a cleaner worksite.

• Easy Integration & Compatibility

• Benefit: Designed for seamless mounting on a wide range of excavator models. We offer custom mounting brackets to ensure a perfect fit and optimal performance with your specific machine, maximizing its versatility and return on investment.

Scope of Application 

• Stockpile Management: Handling sand, gravel, aggregate, coal, and grain.
• Marine & Dredging: Excavating silt, mud, and sand from riverbeds, canals, and ports.
• Demolition & Recycling: Sorting and handling scrap, construction waste, and debris.
• Agriculture: Handling feed, fertilizer, and biomass.
• Trenching & Foundation Work: Precise clean-out of trenches and foundations.

Brand Adaptation

Close Cooperation With Factory 

We maintain deep, long-term partnerships with the factory around 20 years. The factory has strong mechanical and automated production capabilities which ensure stable quality and performance of the forgings and good consistency.

Quality Control

The factory's rigorous quality control process includes material spectroscopy analysis, in-process inspections, and final checks with Magnetic Particle Testing (MPT) to ensure every bucket is free from defects and meets our high standards. The details control process as below,

1. Incoming raw materials undergo random sampling and analysis using a microscope to ensure the chemical composition meets production requirements.

2. During the production process, QC staff conduct timely sampling to ensure products are defect-free and handle any abnormal quality issues that may arise.

3. The final step involves using a magnetic particle flaw detector on metal parts to detect hidden cracks or defects.

4. All finished metal parts are proportionally sampled and sent to the laboratory for mechanical performance tests, size measurement, and 100% manual surface quality inspection.
