3. Clearing Rakes

Used primarily for clearing and controlling loose objects at the quarry face and working levels. The block handling rake is designed with a curved boom for enhanced operator visibility and object placement. The length of the boom is matched to machine size for improved performance.

4. Buckets

In order to choose the best possible bucket for your application, we kindly ask you to consult with our technical staff.

RESCHKE offers the full line of buckets and more:

Block bucket

Special bucket construction to effectively load very large squared blocks and boulders.

It’s metal shell and bottom offers maximum strength, durability and wear life.

Rock bucket

Heavy-duty bucket which offers superior durability, protection and performance in rock and overburden operations in block quarries. It includes large size teeth and segments. Its ( high wear resistant) metal shell and bottom offer maximum strength, durability and wear life.

Marble bucket

Special bucket construction including The metal shell and bottom help the bucket effectively load large Blocks and boulders while maintaining durability. The corner teeth ease block tilting and handling. The heavy duty V-edge is particularly suited for handling high-value breakable marbles before cutting operations.
