The working principle of the YG excavator thumb grab is relatively intuitive and mainly relies on the hydraulic system of the excavator itself: when the operator manipulates the control lever in the cab, the hydraulic system of the excavator will deliver high-pressure hydraulic oil to the hydraulic cylinder connected to the thumb grab. The hydraulic oil pushes the piston rod in the cylinder to extend or retract, thereby driving the “thumb” structure to open and close. When the “thumb” is closed with the bucket, the material can be firmly clamped; when the “thumb” is opened, the material is released. The whole process is achieved through precise hydraulic control to achieve smooth grasping and placement of materials. In simple terms, it is like a huge mechanical arm, completing various grasping tasks through the coordinated actions of the “fingers” (bucket) and the “thumb” (grab).
Functional Features of the YG Excavator Thumb Grab
Flexible grabbing ability: It can achieve 360-degree rotation (some models), or flexibly open and close within a fixed angle, easily grab irregularly shaped materials such as stones, wood, construction waste, etc.
Powerful clamping force: The carefully designed hydraulic system provides a stable and powerful clamping force to ensure that the material does not fall off during transportation and improve the safety of operation.
Quick installation and disassembly: The standardized interface design can quickly connect and disconnect with different models of excavators to reduce downtime.
Multifunctional operation: In addition to grabbing, it can also perform simple loading, clearing, sorting, and other operations with the bucket, which can improve equipment utilization.
Sturdy and durable structure: It adopts high-quality wear-resistant materials and advanced welding technology to resist wear and impact effectively, extend service life, and reduce maintenance costs.
Precise control: The operator can accurately control the opening and closing, and clamping force of the grab through the joystick in the cab to achieve refined operation.
