Concrete processing can involve different excavator sizes, material dimensions, and demolition requirements. A small excavator working on a renovation project does not need the same pulverizing attachment as a large machine handling heavy concrete structures.
The right concrete pulverizer attachment for excavator work should therefore start with the machine and material requirements.
Which situation is closest to the project?
“I Work with a Compact Excavator on Smaller Demolition Projects”
Smaller excavators are often used where equipment access is more limited or where demolition work involves relatively smaller structures.
For these applications, the key concerns are:
- Excavator operating weight
- Attachment weight
- Overall attachment dimensions
- Working pressure
- Jaw opening
The YG400 model is designed for 6-9 ton excavators. It weighs 670 kg and has an overall length of 1,642 mm and a width of 1,006 mm.
Its maximum opening height reaches 587 mm, while the maximum shear force is 380 kN at a working pressure of 280 bar.
YG excavator pulverizer in this size range can provide a suitable starting point when the carrier is a compact excavator and the project does not require the capacity of a larger attachment.
Matching attachment weight with excavator size is important. An attachment that is too large for the carrier can affect the suitability of the complete working setup.

“I Need More Jaw Opening for Larger Concrete Pieces”
For projects involving larger concrete sections, the ability to open and process larger material becomes more important.
The main specifications to check include:
- Maximum opening height
- Upper jaw width
- Lower jaw width
- Blade length
- Excavator weight
The product range includes five models from YG400 to YG1700. Maximum opening height increases from 587 mm on the YG400 to 1,400 mm on the YG1700.
The corresponding upper jaw width ranges from 215 mm to 400 mm, while the lower jaw width ranges from 458 mm to 812 mm.
Blade length also increases across the range, from 120 mm on the YG400 to 240 mm on the YG1700.
For a project where concrete pieces vary in size, these dimensions provide a more useful basis for model selection than attachment weight alone.
YG concrete pulverizer attachment for excavator with a larger working opening may be more appropriate when the project involves larger concrete sections and a larger carrier is available.

“I Need Higher Shear Force for Heavy Concrete Demolition”
Some demolition projects require substantially greater working force.
In these applications, the primary selection factor is the attachment’s maximum shear force, together with the excavator size and hydraulic working pressure.
The five models provide maximum shear forces from 380 kN to 2,503 kN:
| Model | Excavator Weight | Max Shear Force | Working Pressure |
| YG400 | 6-9 ton | 380 kN | 280 bar |
| YG600 | 10-15 ton | 650 kN | 320 bar |
| YG800 | 18-26 ton | 1,650 kN | 320 bar |
| YG1000 | 26-30 ton | 2,250 kN | 320 bar |
| YG1700 | 50-80 ton | 2,503 kN | 320 bar |
The increase in shear force follows the increase in recommended excavator weight.
For heavy-duty demolition, an excavator pulverizer should therefore be selected as part of the complete excavator-attachment combination rather than by force rating alone.
The YG1700, for example, is designed for 50-80 ton excavators and provides a maximum shear force of 2,503 kN.

“I Need a Pulverizer That Matches the Existing Excavator Fleet”
Some contractors work with several excavator sizes rather than one dedicated carrier.
In this situation, model matching becomes the main concern.
The available range covers excavators from 6-9 ton through 50-80 ton:
- YG400: 6-9 ton
- YG600: 10-15 ton
- YG800: 18-26 ton
- YG1000: 26-30 ton
- YG1700: 50-80 ton
This range allows the attachment selection process to begin with the excavator already available on the job site.
An excavator pulverizer attachment should then be checked against its corresponding dimensions, weight, maximum opening, working pressure, and shear force.
Attachment weight ranges from 670 kg for the YG400 to 4,709 kg for the YG1700. This difference is significant when planning the complete machine combination.
For projects involving multiple excavator classes, keeping the model selection tied to carrier weight helps narrow the available options quickly.

Still Not Sure Which Concrete Pulverizer Attachment for Excavator Fits the Project?
Four specifications provide a useful starting point:
| Project Question | Specification to Check |
| What excavator is available? | Recommended excavator weight |
| How large are the concrete pieces? | Maximum opening height and jaw width |
| How much working force is required? | Maximum shear force |
| What hydraulic system is available? | Working pressure |
The attachment range covers different carrier sizes and working capacities. The smallest model weighs 670 kg, while the largest weighs 4,709 kg. Maximum opening height reaches 1,400 mm, and maximum shear force reaches 2,503 kN.
Once the excavator weight, concrete dimensions, required working force, and hydraulic pressure are clear, the suitable model becomes easier to identify.
