For three decades, Industrial Alloys, Inc. has been a premium provider of high quality processed metals and custom fabricated metal products. In the project highlighted here, a customer in the construction industry contracted Industrial Alloys for the custom fabrication of a specially designed backhoe bucket. In-house state-of-the-art machinery and tools were utilized to employ processes including plasma cutting, drilling, and forming on AR-400 and ASTM-A36 hot rolled carbon steel plates. The bucket’s intricate contours and detailing were created with precision CNC turning, and certified welding processes. The tightest tolerance of ± 0.030” was held throughout production. The unit was finished with a coating of gray paint and evaluated for accuracy and quality with a 100% dimensional inspection.
Finished dimensions of the bucket were a length of 24” and width of 36”. One unit was fabricated after a turnaround time of 2 weeks and delivered to the customer in Monroe, North Carolina. The customer’s specifications and the highest quality standards were met during the fabrication of this unit. For more information about this custom backhoe bucket fabrication or any of the capabilities available please see the table below or contact Industrial Alloys directly.
