Size reduction or separation
A crusher reduces pieces; a screen separates fractions by size.

| Product type | Purpose & applications | Key checks | Product information |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crusher bucket | An excavator-mounted hydraulic bucket for crushing suitable concrete, stone and construction material on site. Compare feed opening, adjustable discharge size and hydraulic demand before choosing a configuration. | Feed size, aperture/output, mounting and drive hydraulics. | View product & specifications |
| 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. | Feed size, aperture/output, mounting and drive hydraulics. | View product & specifications |
| Rotary screening bucket | A hydraulically driven drum bucket for screening suitable loose soil, aggregate and recycling material. Choose the drum openings and hydraulic supply for the intended separation task. | Feed size, aperture/output, mounting and drive hydraulics. | View product & specifications |
| Forestry mulcher | A hydraulic drum attachment for reducing brush, woody debris and fallen vegetation into smaller material. Fixed cutters work around a horizontal rotor; model selection depends on the excavator and its continuous hydraulic supply. | Fixed cutters, carrier mass, continuous flow/pressure, motor drain and working clearance. | View product & specifications |
| Tree shear | A hydraulic tree shear for cutting bamboo, saplings and hedges. Its cutting and gripping mechanism mounts on an excavator for controlled vegetation removal. | Cutting mechanism, mounting, hydraulic supply and reach. | View product & specifications |
| Stump grinder | A compact hydraulic attachment with a vertical cutting disc for grinding tree stumps below the surface. The narrow disc arrangement suits confined access and smaller excavators. | Disc geometry, selected hydraulic flow, bracket, guards and site clearance. | View product & specifications |
| Brush cutter | An excavator-mounted cutting deck with a hydraulic rotary blade assembly for brush, saplings and suitable woody vegetation. Standard-flow and high-flow versions are selected for the carrier’s auxiliary circuit. | Deck width, S/H hydraulic version, mounting and brush diameter for the selected model. | View product & specifications |
| Excavator sweeper | A hydraulic rotary brush for sweeping roads, work sites and industrial surfaces. The brush moves loose debris; an angled head directs the swept material to one side. | Brush width, mounting, loaded mass including water, hydraulic drive and surface conditions. | View product & specifications |
| Excavator rake | An open-tine excavator attachment for gathering roots, brush, rocks and site debris. Soil and smaller loose material can pass between the tines while larger material is gathered. | Width, tine spacing, pin/coupler interface and lifting limits; a fixed rake needs no auxiliary hydraulics. | View product & specifications |
Check the task, working size and machine
Crushing & Screening Buckets
Feed conditions
Describe material size, moisture and contamination.
Required fraction
State the desired crushed size or screening aperture.
Mechanism
Compare jaw crushing, drum screening and other screening arrangements.
Forestry & Site Maintenance
Vegetation or surface
Distinguish grass, brush, standing timber, stumps and hard surfaces.
Cutting mechanism
Shears, mulching rotors, saws and grinding heads perform different operations.
Diameter and density
State the material size and density within the intended task.
Site finish
Describe whether the result is cut timber, shredded vegetation or a cleared surface.
Check the selected product’s connection and power
Use the requirements for the actual working mechanism. Drilling drives, compaction tools, cutting tools and processing buckets do not share one hydraulic specification.
Selection questions
Questions before choosing a tool
Does a screening bucket crush the material?
A screen primarily separates size fractions. A crusher primarily reduces pieces. Some combined systems have additional functions that must be specified.
Is a skeleton bucket a powered screening bucket?
No. A skeleton bucket has open bars for passive separation. A driven drum or other screening mechanism has additional hydraulic requirements.
Is a forestry mulcher the same as a log grapple?
No. A mulcher shreds suitable vegetation with a rotor. A log grapple grips and positions timber.
Can a tree shear be selected by jaw opening alone?
No. Opening and stated cutting dimensions are separate. Check vegetation, blade mechanism, hydraulic supply and carrier limits.
Does machine power or weight alone establish a fit?
No. Check the mounting connection, lifting limits and the power or hydraulic supply specified for the selected tool.
What should I provide when comparing product types?
Describe the material, required result and working dimensions. Include the machine model and the connection information listed above.
