What Is Hydraulic Thumb Or Mechanical Thumb
The versatility and ease of use that a clamp provides to an excavator operator is invaluable, increasing productivity and improving safety.The hydraulic thumb is easy to install and the angle can be adjusted according to needs.
After the excavator completes the material excavation, it needs to carry out the transfer and loading work. When the transfer operation is carried out in the air, the materials in the bucket may fall, which not only affects the work efficiency, but also may endanger the lives of the workers on site.
The bucket is equipped with a hydraulic thumb, which not only reduces the drop of materials during the transfer process, but also can directly grab objects of various shapes and loose materials. The bucket and the thumb are used to pick up, grab, classify and process various long materials, such as wood and stone, which can improve efficiency and safety.
Hydraulic thumb has a rigid link that is welded to secure the link mount to the underside of the excavator stick. Hydraulic thumbs are available in two designs, mechanical thumb and hydraulic thumb.
It can be used in conjunction with buckets, rippers, rakes and other attachments. When not in use, it can be put away and pasted under the bucket without affecting the normal use of the bucket. It is a more practical tool.
