Are there any power shovels that have a bucket without a tooth?Kenken


Excavator with a giant bucket

Yes. The edge part of a hydraulic excavator is exchangeable, and some of those buckets come without a tooth. When loading coal or wooden chips, it uses a bucket with a flat edge to prevent the stuff from falling through a tooth.
