Mini excavator attachment function
There are many types of attachments for mini excavators, and different attachments can greatly expand their application scenarios and improve operational efficiency.
I. Digging and crushing attachments
1. Standard Bucket (Universal Bucket) Function: the most commonly used attachments, used for earthmoving, trench digging, material loading, and so on. Subdivision type: according to the width and tooth shape, it can be divided into narrow bucket (trench excavation), wide bucket (levelling work), rock bucket (with reinforced teeth), etc. 2.
2. Hydraulic Breaking Hammer (Cannon Head) Function: Breaking concrete, rock, frozen soil and other hard objects by high-frequency impact, commonly used in demolition, mining or municipal construction.
3. Looseners (crackers) Function: with multiple pointed teeth, used for loosening hard soil, frozen soil or crushing the ground of slate, also can assist in stripping the surface rock.
Grabbing and Handling Attachments
4. Hydraulic grapples Types: shell grapples (grabs sediment, gravel), timber grapples (clamps round logs), waste grapples (handles construction waste). Function: Precise grabbing of loose or irregular materials, suitable for waste recycling, material sorting, etc.
5. Thumb Clamp (Mechanical Jaw) Function: A movable clamping plate installed on the digging bucket to enhance the clamping force on stones and wood, suitable for loading and unloading or handling operations.
6. Forklift Attachment Function: It turns the excavator into a forklift temporarily to carry pallets, pipes or small containers, which can be flexibly used for storage or site transfer.
Levelling and Cleaning Attachments
7. Bulldozer (front shovel) Function: Installed at the front of the machine, it is used for backfilling, levelling the ground or clearing snow to improve the efficiency of site preparation.
8. Grading Bucket (Scraper) Function: Wide and flat bucket, used for fine levelling of the ground, slope repair or gravel spreading, replacing manual scraping.
9. Rotary sweeper Function: To clean the debris, leaves or snow on the road surface through the high-speed rotating brush head, suitable for municipal sanitation.
Fourth, special engineering attachments
10. vibration plate tamper Function: replace traditional hand-held tamper, used for trench backfill or roadbed compaction, save manpower.
11. auger (ground auger) Function: drilling holes for planting trees, burying piles or installing small pillars, with a diameter of up to tens of centimetres.
12. Cutting Saw (Hydraulic Disc Saw) Function: cutting asphalt pavement, concrete or rock, suitable for road maintenance or pipeline trenching.
13. Pile driving head Function: with vibratory hammer or impact hammer, used for driving steel sheet piles, small pipe piles, etc. V. Multi-function and Adaptor
14. Quick-change coupler (quick connector) Function: Quickly switch between different implements (e.g. digging bucket for crushing hammer) without manually dismantling the pins to enhance the efficiency.
15. Tilt swivel Function: enables the implement to rotate or tilt 360°, which is suitable for precise work in complex terrain (e.g. slope repair).
