Fast enough for our operation. Over the last few years we have been ripping and loading with two large excavators. Now, with the use of the Multi-Ripper Bucket, we are able to do the same operation with only one machine, while being easier on the machine and operator, and with a better rock yield. I think that the bucket is great for our operation and will help us continue mining efficiently.”THE LEADING EDGE ATTACHMENTS, INC.'S “SHARC™” (SHanks on an ARC) MULTI-RIPPER™ BUCKET IS AN ENGINEERING BREAKTHROUGH!The Multi-Ripper and Multi-Ripper Bucket can be used for a wide range of tough material applications such as excavating frozen ground, coral, sandstone, limestone, shale, decomposed granite and caliche. These unique patent pending designs have demonstrated that they can rip up to 4 times faster than a hydraulic hammer and dig up to 10 times faster than using a single pointed ripper tooth! The performance exceeds all other designs of any other frost, rock or ripper buckets. This design is also a mining industry breakthrough for the purpose of wall and roof rock scaling, and open quarry mining! The Multi-Ripper is the absolute best and most productive ripper available on the market and the Multi-Ripper Bucket is the undisputed best combination ripper and rock bucket on the market! The new Multi-Ripper products are constructed with tough Swedish Hardox 400 and 450 steel and available to fit any excavator or backhoe above 6,000 pounds. Over the past several years, hundreds of these units have been sold through dealers, and directly, to very satisfied customers! The Multi-Ripper won Construction Equipment magazine’s to 100 products of the Year award for 2003, and the Multi-Ripper Bucket development followed, then the Multi-Ripper Tooth, the Talon Bucket, and the Multi-DigNRip Bucket.Each Multi-Ripper product functions similarly to that of a trencher except it uses the hydraulic excavator rolling action to rip. The staggered ripper teeth fracture the substrate in sequential order. No two ripper teeth align with each other, so that the maximum breakout force is applied sequentially to each tooth. The Multi-Ripper is considerably shorter thus causing the force multiplication effect that can be up to twice the normal breakout force of the machine! For example, the breakout force generated using the standard bucket on a Cat 375 is 75,400 pounds shared across the five bucket teeth. The Multi-Ripper on the same machine generates 123,770 pounds of breakout force and, through one tooth at a time! Also, when the first tooth breaks out a chunk, the second tooth is there to come slamming down like a hammer ripping out the second chunk, and then the third tooth does the same!
