Hitachi excavators

Hitachi Construction Machinery is a worldwide company originally established in Japan in 1910. At first it was only an electric motor repair shop, but soon it developed and no later than in 1924 Hitachi released their first DC electric locomotives. Since then Hitachi has proven to be one of the most popular and reliable machinery producers all around the world – Hitachi started opening their foreign branches and nowadays Hitachi machines can be found on almost every continent. In 2002 Hitachi Construction Machinery America joined forces with another machinery mogul – John Deere. The companies conduct joined marketing operations in both Americas with a great benefit to both.

Hitachi Construction Machinery manufactures a number of products for three branches, that is mining, construction and forestry. Their most popular products are crawlers, recycle machines, loaders, rollers and excavators. All of their machines have been gaining loads of favorable opinions among satisfied customers.

Hitachi excavators, for that matter, are advertised, and actually perceived as “unstoppable”. Hitachi excavators are built to face the hardest construction works.  Like all Hitachi products, they are powerful – no matter the size, be it mini excavators lifting up to six tons, or large ones, that can easily deal with over 40 tons of load. Moreover, Hitachi excavators are productive and technologically advanced, which in turn leads to great efficiency, shorter time needed to perform a certain task and more enjoyable work.

Volvo 330 – an excavator to consider

Excavators have been in use for decades now. They make the work more efficient, faster and much more simple, so it’s only logical that manufacturers have been working hard to improve their products as much as possible. There are loads of used excavators on the market right now but certainly there are a few that deserve a closer look.

One of such excavators is Volvo EC330,which comes in as many as four different variants: Volvo EC 330 CL, Volvo EC 330 CL ME, Volvo EC 330 BLC and Volvo EC BLC ME. They all differ slightly when considering specifications, but for all of them one thing is sure – they’re strong and they’re worth their price. All models have a mono broom measuring 20.4 or 21.2 ft and turbocharged Volvo diesel engine with gross power of 265 hp. The model’s  rated horsepower output is also impressive – it’s 184 bucket capacity, that is 1.25 to 2.5 m². Volvo EC330 reaches also a really amazing operating weight from 33.7 to 36.6 tons. All that makes this particular model, or rather its four variants, really worth considering when looking for an excavator.

Terex RH 400 – the king of excavators

Without any doubt, Terex RH 400 is the biggest hydraulic mining excavator in the world – 2.233.000 lb use-weight is not a small number. The giant is 33.4 ft high, 28.3 ft wide and 27.7 ft long and it alone weights over 2.2 Glb. It is really huge and its traction force amounts up to 889.000 lb. RH 400 has a reference bucket of 58.9 yd³, which equals 198.00 lb. Loading shovel can get as high as 66.3 ft.

A machine like that needs a lot of power. RH 400 is equipped with two 16-cyl engines that together can develop power of 4398 horsepower.

Mining excavator Terex RH 400 was first presented in Dortmund in 1997 and since then only six machines were built. They were all shipped to America – one to work in mine in the USA and five to work in Canada.

Some Upgrades of M313D and M315D Excavators Announced by Caterpillar

The two models of excavators produced by the Caterpillar, M313D and M315D from Cat®M300D Series Wheeled Excavator have recently received the engineering updates that are supposed to strengthen their original qualities. The operator’s station, alongside with the undercarriage and fleet-management have been refined and upgraded. The two new models provide a more sophisticated design, add up to the operator’s comfort and more effective asset management.
As for the brand new features, the M313D and M315D models were equipped with the welded undercarriage, allowing to use the blade either front or rear, with or without outriggers and the non-blade end. The excavators could be also fitted with the outriggers front and rear, which greatly enhances their versatility.
Cab refinement includes e.g. fitting a new in-cab monitor, with a 40 per cent larger display and the simplified navigation of menus. It enables the operator to manage the standard rearview camera via quick-access buttons, just like managing two extra cameras. A new, right-hand switch-panel module has also been added and it is the same one as used on six-cylinder wheeled excavator machines. It houses the rotary-throttle dial, making it easy for the operator to get the intuitive access to engine-speed control.
The ease of maintenance has been strengthened mainly by rerouted coolant lines for the unlimited access to service pints and the shut tank, with the redesigned filler neck and cap. Additionally, new electrical connectors are used for the proportional pilot valves and the hydraulic tank incorporates both the new pressure and temperature sensors, plus the new drain valve.
