Gyru-Star screening buckets have long been the go-to choice for utilities contractors in Scandinavia. On remote jobsites, Gyru-Star screening buckets provide a fast, affordable backfilling solution, enabling operators to recycle trench arisings into high-quality padding material.

However, operators soon started to seek a tailor-made solution, optimised for the efficient rehandling of trench arisings and small stockpiles.

It was from this demand that the Gyru-Star MAX range of poly-star screening buckets evolved. All models in the Gyru-Star MAX range have a wider cutting edge and increased capacity.

All MAX buckets feature a 1500 mm wide screening area for optimal performance. Gyru-Star MAX buckets differ from the other models in two distinct ways: their capacity and the cutting edge. While these differences may seem small, they completely change how operators use the screening buckets.

The benefits of the increased capacity are clear, speeding up the backfilling operation and enabling the operator to quickly process even more material. Looking at a MAX bucket, you may notice that it has a very different shape from models in the other five Gyru-Star ranges.

Shaped almost like a dustpan, MAX buckets have an extended Hardox cutting edge. As the trenches are excavated, the arisings are usually placed alongside the trenches in small stockpiles. Rehandling material from these small stockpiles can be tricky, and the extended cutting edge makes this process much easier—once again helping to speed up the backfilling process.

The only screening bucket purpose-built for backfilling and designed based on feedback from machine operators, MAX buckets come with a full assortment of industry-leading features as standard, and each bucket is optimised for a specific carrier weight range.

Like all of our other Gyru-Star screening buckets, MAX models come standard with an ultra-low maintenance carbon belt drive, Hardox reinforcement, a multi-layer monocoque shell, and a non-stick stainless steel floor.

Furthermore, each of the six models in the MAX range is optimised for a specific carrier weight range, ensuring optimal screening performance for any 4-30 ton excavator or 2-15 ton loader.

The Gyru-Star MAX range was developed in partnership with our Swedish distributor, MTT Sweden AB.
