Interchangeable excavator attachments
Historical Construction Equipment Association (HCEA)
Equipment fleet managers ask for multifunctional equipment to avoid costly downtime waiting for the right purpose-built machine for a specific job which prompts the development of interchangeable attachment systems.
Starting in the early 1920s, Bay City Dredge Works offered a unique mast to which a backhoe or skimmer boom could be mounted if frequent attachment changes were being made. It was better to mount the attachment directly to the machine; but the mast, which was discontinued in the 1930s, made the process easier.
