Clamshell Bucket

This Clamshell Bucket type, which can be used as crane and excavator attachment, is used to load soft and bulk materials. Clamshell Buckets are hydraulic equipment in two main categories: for digging: the profile of vertical cylinders and tines are designed to provide high penetration; for loading: provides maximum filling with horizontal cylinders to reduce the overall height and geometric design of the forks.

Nowadays it serves mostly in ports, mines and iron ore loading areas.The loading version is soil, sand, gravel, RDF, mud, grains, coal, fertilizers, industrial and agricultural wastes, minerals, etc. It is used for movements. All models are available with or without gear and can be equipped with a hydraulic rotator.

The excavator ‘clamshell’ buckets are sent to the production line by the Galen Group engineers after hydraulic and mechanical design are carried out.Pins and bushings are made of Hardox steel with heat treatment to ensure longevity even under harsh conditions and hardening for poor lubrication.Galen Group offers a complete bucket range to equip earthmoving machinery from truck cranes to large tracked excavators.Clamshell buckets are suitable for digging and loading soil, sand and similar materials.

Clamshell bucket is a two-piece bucket with a mechanically hinged in the middle, a complex articulation to create a claw-like extension with internal volume. It is fastened with a hangar or bracket and uses the ground tool on the edge of the cutter to dig in a vertical direction.Clamshell buckets are often used for dredging, excavation or material handling, but each application has its own unique requirements and should be optimally designed for maximum efficiency. We design, develop and manufacture hydraulic and mechanical valve designs used in excavators and cranes.

Clamshell bucket usage areas:

Digging pits for ground construction works.
Ideal for digging and loading materials in tight and confined spaces.
Industrial waste, grains, sand etc. handling, loading and unloading
Ideal for dredging applications with heavy duty mechanical clamshell winch.

Rock Grapple Attachments

Rock Grapple Attachments are the type of excavator attachment used in the transport and loading of dense mass blocks. We have two options in our production line. Mechanical and hydraulic with rotator. The area of use of such attachments is designed and manufactured by Galen Group Engineers taking into account all kinds of machine features and clients’ demands.

Timber Grapple

Timber Grapple is the type of excavator attachment used in the transport and loading of logs and timber. We have the production options of rotator and rotating linkage for timber attachments. The area of use of such timber attachments is designed and manufactured by Galen Group Engineers taking into account all kinds of machine features and clients’ demands.

Forklift Attachments

The compact machine fork,grap and forklift attachments are designed and manufactured at the required sizes and standards for pallets and sequential load handling. The fork and grap attachments increase the efficiency and usability of your compact machines. At the same time, with the forklift attachments which is attached to the fork, it is possible to use your construction machinery effectively for log, timber and similar loads. Galen Group engineers provide the most suitable design by taking into consideration the work area in line with clients’ demands.Forklift attachments

Sweeper Attachments

The closed box sweeper design and production for compact machines in various sizes is available. Sweeper Attachments are used in parks, gardens, landscape designs by municipalities and cleaning companies. Sweeper Attachment is designed and manufactured by Galen Group Engineers taking into account all kinds of machine features and clients’ demands.

Polpy

Polpy is an excavator attachment used for loading and transporting metal, plastic and similar scrap piles.Polyp attachments are suitable hydraulic equipment for processing bulk materials: scrap, urban waste, industrial waste, machine shop refusals, rocks, paper, cardboard, plastic, wood and tires. The RP range is a compact version of the rollers partially housed inside the buckets to reduce height; Polyp Attachments have vertical outer cylinders fixed on a strong structure. Guards and guards prevent damage to pipes and cylinders. This product is designed and manufactured to be rotatable as well.All models can be supplied with a rotating device. The geometry of the teeth is optimized to stimulate penetration and collect as much material as possible. It meets every need and provides high performance with all materials. While steel works and cylinders are made of high quality and durable materials, the parts exposed to wear are made of wear-resistant steel. In order to increase the attachment mobility.Pins and bushings are manufactured using heat-treated special steel for hardening to ensure long life and poor lubrication even under harsh conditions.It is used for loading and transporting metal, plastic and similar scrap piles in excavators.To increase the mobility of the attachment, it is one of our attachments that can be designed and produced with rotators.

Tree Removal/Trimming Attachments

First of all, with the works of our engineers' design and workshop, we can manufacture and provide you with the type of attachment which is for any trees that you want to remove. First, the trunk of the tree is fixed by the ring structure that opens and surrounds the trunk. Then; the tree is vibrated away from the ground by reaching the surrounding area of the soil surrounding the root with the arms of the attachment.

Sorting Grapple

The sorting grab (demolition grapple) has been specially developed for the requirements of demolition and recycling. Sorting grab is used for sorting, loading and demolition work. In sorting operations, it represents a highly effective universal attachment.
