Clamshell Bucket
Clamshell Bucket
Being a specialist in long reach solutions which cater predominately for dredging and deep
excavation work, we complement our long reach solutions with various designs of clamshell buckets,
providing our customers with unparallel value added 1 stop services. The clamshell bucket is a
sophisticated articulating two-piece bucket mechanically hinged at the middle to form a claw-like
appendage with an internal volume. It is attached by a hangar or bracket and uses ground engaging
tool on its cutting edge to dig in a vertical direction. Clamshell buckets are commonly used in
dredging, excavation or material handling, however, each application has its unique requirements
and has to be designed optimally for maximum efficiency. We design, develop and manufacture both
hydraulic and mechanical clamshell used on excavators and cranes.
Hydraulic Clamshell
The CS series hydraulic clamshell bucket is designed to be attached onto an excavator. The dual or
quad hydraulic cylinders/rams mounted on the outer rim of the bucket provide excellent digging
force. The inner side of the bucket has a smooth surface for easy unloading of high viscosity
material such as mud and clay, while the outer layer is reinforced with additional layer of wear strips.
The bowl's radius has been optimized to match with the locus of the hydraulic cylinder/ram to deliver
consistently full load for maximum productivity.
Hydraulic designs are meant for attaching to an excavator while the mechanical cable operated are
designed to work with a broad range of cranes. The buckets are constructed with high tensile steel
and wear resistant steel with capacity starting from 1 cubic meter and upwards.

Mechanical/Cable Clamshell
The fully mechanical clamshell is designed specifically to be used on a crane for large capacity
dredging and digging applications. The opening and closing action is operated via cable. The inner
side of the bucket has a smooth surface for easy unloading of high viscosity material such as mud
and clay, while the outer layer is reinforced with additional layer of wear strips. The hanger is
constructed with high tensile steel.
The design concept and criteria of a dredging versus a general purpose loading/unloading
mechanical/cable clamshell differs greatly due to its differences in the nature of application and
working condition. The geometry and weight distribution of a good clamshell design play a significant
role in determining its overall efficiency.
hydraulic cylinder/ram delivers smooth opening and closing actions with strong penetration force
which is a pre-requisite for an effective telescopic clamshell bucket.

Konsep desain dan kriteria dari pengerukan terhadap loading tujuan umum /
bongkar mekanik / kabel clamshell sangat berbeda karena perbedaan dalam sifat
aplikasi dan kondisi kerja. Geometri dan berat distribusi desain clamshell yang
baik memainkan peran penting dalam menentukan efisiensi secara keseluruhan.
