EXCAVATOR FRONT-END AND BASE-MACHINE MODIFICATIONS
Bespoke Excavator Modifications
Kocurek has been manufacturing and modifying excavators since 1983. Our Ipswich facility brings together equipment design, precision machining and fabrication. Depending on your project requirements, you can access equipment on site or if you prefer to handle the installation yourself, equipment can be supplied in kit form and shipped worldwide.
We work closely with you to understand what your machine needs to do, assess its current setup and develop suitable equipment.
Tailored Front-End Equipment
Kocurek designs and manufactures equipment for projects where a standard configuration does not meet the requirement.
Our capabilities include long reach booms and dippers, high reach demolition equipment, material handling configurations and telescopic Teledippers. We work with you to understand the required reach, digging depth and attachment requirements before developing a suitable design.
Base Machine Excavator Modifications
Alongside front-end equipment, Kocurek adapts excavators for different operating requirements.
Options include fixed and hydraulically raised cabs, Step Safe Cab conversions, additional counterweights and modifications to existing OEM booms and dippers. The Kocurek Modular Joint also allows changes between compatible equipment configurations.
Our team can assess your existing machine and explain which modifications are appropriate.
OEM Compatibility and Large-Scale Projects
Kocurek works across Original Equipment Manufacturer Excavator makes and models, including large-scale projects involving machines over 120 tonnes.
Each proposal is assessed around the individual base machine, intended application and working conditions. Whether you need a single modification or a more extensive conversion, we can explore a configuration suited to your project.
Experience and Industry Recognition
Kocurek’s work has been recognised through industry award wins. We are also proud members of organisations and programmes representing the demolition, construction equipment and specialist steel sectors:
– National Federation of Demolition Contractors.
– Construction Equipment Association.
