ITALY’S MB, a world leader in the production and sale of crusher buckets, has launched an innovative new coupling which is designed to make on-site jobs as easy as possible.

Called the Universal Quick Coupling, this winning piece of equipment is available in seven versions, depending on the excavator and the pin on which it is assembled, and it facilitates all kinds of equipment, from the crusher bucket to the hammer, from the traditional bucket to the drill, to the same excavator, with very short installation times.
“The Universal Quick Coupling is a new accessory that once again bears witness to the company’s relentless efforts to innovate and be innovative, creating work tools that are increasingly cutting-edge, flexible and of basic use, just like its unique crusher buckets,” says a spokesman for MB.
The new product improves pick-up geometry by reducing the distance between the excavator arm and the equipment used, thus speeding up the jobs carried out on site. Furthermore, the strain on the excavator is also diminished, thanks to reduction of more than 50 per cent of the weight compared to traditional couplings offered on the market. The new Universal Quick Coupling weighs about 80 kg, compared to the 150 kg of couplings available today on the market.

This coupling is quick and versatile and makes assembly operations easy, thanks to the possibility of quickly assembling the pieces of equipment on both sides (front and back).
Based in Vicenza, MB, has always been at the forefront of demolition and recycling technology. Constant research and development by a professional team ensures that the company is always one step ahead by offering work tools that are an absolute must at construction sites, the spokesman says, adding that the equipment offered by the company has made it “extremely competitive and well-known at the international level in just a few years”.
Founded in Breganze in 2001, MB today exports to more than 100 countries worldwide and is especially appreciated for the innovation and technology of its products and the quality of its service. The ability to react to the market and the technical assistance provided to its many customers have contributed to the growth of MB’s brand throughout the world, he concludes. www.mbcrusher.com
