Can over-digging cause damage to bucket teeth?

Excessive excavation can indeed cause damage to the bucket teeth. In excavation operations, the bucket teeth, as the terminal of the excavator's working device, are one of the most heavily loaded working components and are particularly susceptible to wear and damage.
Firstly, from a mechanical perspective, excessive excavation will increase the force on the bucket teeth. During the excavation process, strong impact and friction forces are generated between the bucket teeth and the material. If the excavation force is too strong or the excavation method is improper, such as using too much force, incorrect angle when in contact with the ground, etc., it will accelerate the wear of the bucket teeth and even causeto fracture.
Secondly, the hardness and particle size of the material will also affect the wear of the bucket teeth. When excavating harder rock blocks, concrete, and other materials, the bucket teeth will experience greater impact and friction, thereby accelerating wear. In addition, if the material particle size is uneven and there are large pieces of material or sharp objects, it is also easy to cause damage to the bucket teeth due to impact.
Furthermore, the material and manufacturing process of the bucket teeth are also important factors affecting their wear resistance. The materials and manufacturing processes of bucket teeth of different qualities will also vary. If poor quality bucket teeth are chosen, their wear resistance is poor and they are more likely to be damaged during excavation.
