Screening bucket

A hydraulically powered shaft screening bucket for processing soil and separating suitable material by size. Rotating rollers screen and mix material inside the bucket; this mechanism differs from a rotating screening drum.

About the screening bucket

A hydraulically powered shaft screening bucket for processing soil and separating suitable material by size. Rotating rollers screen and mix material inside the bucket; this mechanism differs from a rotating screening drum.

Features & benefits

01

Reversible roller motion

Hydraulic power turns the rollers forward and in reverse to work material inside the bucket.

02

Screening, mixing and stirring

The shaft arrangement separates eligible material while mixing and stirring the bucket contents.

03

Carbide-inlaid screening cutters

Carbide inlays protect the screening cutters against wear during material processing.

04

Wear-resistant structural steel

High-strength, wear-resistant steel supports the bucket structure during screening and mixing.

05

Hydraulic motor and valve block

The drive and valve block power the roller mechanism; compare the stated flow for each model.

Typical applications

Excavator shaft screening bucket releasing screened soil on a construction site
Shaft screening bucket separating soil at a work site
  • Soil and backfill preparationSeparate suitable finer soil from coarse pieces for backfill and site preparation.
  • Sand and aggregate separationSelect the shaft arrangement and opening for the feed material and required particle fraction.
  • Material mixingMix compatible soil and additives using the roller arrangement described in the manufacturer’s catalogue.

Installation requirements

Confirm the attachment fits your excavator

Before ordering, send the machine identification and the connection, power and working information relevant to this product.

Pin-on interfaces only. Use the actual machine and attachment drawing.
  1. Excavator class and lifting

    Match 18–25, 25–30 or 30–45 t and the listed attachment weight, then check the machine’s lifting geometry.

  2. Mounting connection

    Provide pin diameters, centres, clear mounting width or quick-coupler information.

  3. Hydraulic flow and controls

    Compare the selected 120–200, 150–220 or 200–320 L/min range and controls for reversible shaft motion. The web table does not state operating pressure.

  4. Feed and screening layout

    Specify feed material, moisture, contamination and the required fraction; choose the actual shaft and opening rather than inferring them from capacity.

Product questions

Screening bucket questions

Is this the same as a rotary screening bucket?

No. This bucket uses working shafts and rollers; a rotary screening bucket turns a mesh drum.

Is bucket capacity a production-rate guarantee?

No. It describes bucket volume. Output depends on material, moisture, shaft arrangement and operating conditions.

What hydraulic pressure should I use?

The specification table does not provide pressure. Check the specified motor, controls and return arrangement before installation.

Can one shaft arrangement process every material?

No. Choose the actual shaft and opening for the material and required result; coarse-screen and fine-screen configurations differ.
