Types of Excavator Buckets
THACO INDUSTRIES integrates research, design, fabrication, welding, surface treatment, and assembly within one location to maintain precision, reduce lead times, and ensure international compliance for every product.
THACO INDUSTRIES’ excavator bucket portfolio includes:
Mini Excavator Buckets
Engineered for landscaping, trenching, and confined-site operations, mini excavator buckets combine weight-optimized structure with high-strength steels such as S235, S355, 304 and 316 (stainless steel grades). Optional replaceable tooth systems and side cutters provide operational flexibility for different soil types and excavation conditions.
Trenching Buckets
Designed for utility and drainage projects, trenching buckets feature deep digging profiles and reinforced cutting edges to reduce abrasive wear. Precision-cut slots prevent soil buildup, while universal mount designs ensure compatibility with most mini and mid-size excavators.
Rock Buckets
Built for quarry and aggregate environments, rock buckets feature abrasion-resistant wear plates, heavy-duty tooth systems, and heel guards for superior penetration and durability. These attributes make them the preferred choice for high-impact, heavy-duty applications in demanding conditions.
Heavy-Duty Buckets
Optimized for mining, demolition, and construction, our heavy-duty buckets utilize wear-resistant steel with reinforced sidewalls and replaceable cutting edges. Ground Engaging Tools (GET), including teeth and edges, are heat-treated or quenched and tempered to achieve superior hardness and toughness, significantly extending service life.
Custom Excavator Attachments
THACO INDUSTRIES specializes in custom-engineered attachments (including buckets, rippers, couplers, and grapples) developed through advanced CAD (Computer-Aided Design) modelling and structural optimization. Each project is tailored to client specifications, with technical documentation and compliance support aligned to regional standards.
Excavator Solutions for Construction and Mining
Beyond attachments, we supply structural assemblies, lifting frames, shovels assemblies, tanks, and heavy-duty frames to major industrial operators. Our integrated design-to-manufacture capability ensures that every component achieves optimal performance across global mining and construction environments.
Excavator bucket manufacturing process
At THACO INDUSTRIES, every bucket represents the intersection of precision engineering, material science, and process control. We apply IATF 16949 derived core quality tools – PPAP (Production Part Approval Process), FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis), MSA (Measurement System Analysis), and SPC (Statistical Process Control), widely used in automotive and heavy equipment manufacturing to ensure consistent, globally aligned quality.
Material Preparation & Cutting
Production begins with verification of high-strength steel grades. Plates are slit, sheared, and laser-cut using CNC cutting machines and automated slitting lines. Operators confirm thickness and composition against design specifications, ensuring every blank aligns precisely with the CAD model.
Forming & Shaping
Cut blanks are processed through press brakes, stamping lines, and four-roller CNC plate rolling machines, where they are bent and shaped into precise contours. Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM) and five-axis CNC milling guarantee dimensional accuracy, ensuring seamless fitment during assembly.
Heat Treatment & Hardening
Forged and welded components undergo controlled heat treatment in automated furnaces to increase hardness and impact toughness. Metallographic testing confirms that every bucket, whether mini or heavy-duty, meets specified wear-life criteria under demanding site conditions.
Surface Treatment & Coating
Surface integrity is ensured through shot blasting, powder coating, or electro-deposition. Coating thickness is digitally monitored, and samples are subjected to salt-spray tests to verify corrosion protection. The result: a durable, high-performance finish suitable for extreme climates.
Welding & Assembly
Using a combination of robotic and manual welding, our skilled team joins components under strict alignment jigs. Welds are visually and mechanically inspected, ensuring structural integrity before progressing to the next phase. Reinforcements, side cutters, and teeth are added for performance durability.
Labeling & Serialization
Each bucket receives a unique laser-etched ID and QR code for full traceability, linking it to material certificates, inspection records, and process documentation. This ensures rapid root-cause analysis and transparent quality control.
Inspection & Quality Testing
Before delivery, all buckets undergo dimensional, weld, and NDT (non-destructive testing) inspections. Environmental simulations and load trials validate structural performance. Compliance with ISO 9001:2015, ISO 3834, and EN 1090-1 guarantees that every attachment meets international standards.
Packing & Delivery
Products are sealed in protective wraps, palletized, and documented for global transport. Product shipments are organized under FOB, CIF, or DDP terms, ensuring safe and compliant global delivery.
Standards and Certifications
Every product from THACO INDUSTRIES complies with international standards, including ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management System), ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental Management), ISO 45001:2018, ISO 3834, EN 1090-1 (Welding and Structural Integrity Standards), and ASTM.
These certifications validate our capability to meet the stringent quality, safety, and environmental requirements demanded by global OEM partners.
Excavator Bucket Product Range
Mini Excavator Buckets
Designed for precision excavation, these buckets handle light-duty excavation, grading, and material movement across soil types from clay to gravel. Three to nine teeth configurations ensure optimal penetration and manoeuvrability in restricted spaces.
Trenching Buckets
Built with narrow, reinforced profiles, these buckets produce clean, stable trenches ideal for pipeline, utility, and cable installations. Their optimized geometry reduces cutting resistance and preserves structural rigidity, ensuring long service life in demanding trenching operations.
Rock Buckets
For quarrying and mineral extraction, rock buckets incorporate abrasion-resistant wear plates and heavy-duty teeth engineered to endure severe impact and abrasive materials.
Custom Excavator Attachments
When standard solutions fall short, our engineering and R&D teams develop custom designs that match machine specifications, job-site environments, and regulatory requirements.
