Bucket Capacity Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the bucket capacity (BC) is:

\[ BC = V \times \left(\frac{FF}{100}\right) \]

Where:

\( BC \) is the bucket capacity in cubic meters
\( V \) is the volume of the bucket in cubic meters
\( FF \) is the fill factor as a percentage

Definition

Bucket Capacity: Refers to the actual volume of material that a bucket can hold when in use. It takes into account the fill factor, which is influenced by material characteristics, bucket shape, and operating conditions. The fill factor is usually given as a percentage and indicates how full the bucket will be when performing its intended function.

Example

Let's say the volume of the bucket (V) is 2 cubic meters and the fill factor (FF) is 80%. Using the formula:

\[ BC = 2 \times \left(\frac{80}{100}\right) \]

We get:

\[ BC = 1.6\, \text{cubic meters} \]

So, the bucket capacity is 1.6 cubic meters.

How to Measure Bucket Capacity

Definition: Measuring the capacity of a bucket involves determining the volume it can hold.

Formula: \( \text{Volume} = \text{Cross Sectional Area} \times \text{Length} \)

\( \text{Volume} \): Volume of the bucket
\( \text{Cross Sectional Area} \): Area of the bucket's cross-section
\( \text{Length} \): Length of the bucket

Example: \( \text{Volume} = 2 \times 3 \)

\( \text{Volume} \): Volume of the bucket
\( \text{Cross Sectional Area} \): 2 square meters
\( \text{Length} \): 3 meters

How to Calculate Loader Bucket Capacity

Definition: Calculating the capacity of a loader bucket.

Formula: \( \text{Capacity} = \text{Width} \times \text{Height} \times \text{Length} \)

\( \text{Capacity} \): Capacity of the loader bucket
\( \text{Width} \): Width of the bucket
\( \text{Height} \): Height of the bucket
\( \text{Length} \): Length of the bucket

Example: \( \text{Capacity} = 1.5 \times 1.2 \times 2 \)

\( \text{Capacity} \): Capacity of the loader bucket
\( \text{Width} \): 1.5 meters
\( \text{Height} \): 1.2 meters
\( \text{Length} \): 2 meters

Excavator Bucket Capacity Calculator

Definition: A tool to calculate the capacity of an excavator bucket.

\( \text{Width} \): Width of the bucket
\( \text{Height} \): Height of the bucket
\( \text{Length} \): Length of the bucket

Example: \( \text{Capacity} = 1.8 \times 1.5 \times 2.5 \)

\( \text{Capacity} \): Capacity of the excavator bucket
\( \text{Width} \): 1.8 meters
\( \text{Height} \): 1.5 meters
\( \text{Length} \): 2.5 meters

Volume of Bucket Calculator
