Mini excavators

Mini excavators

Excavating equipment with a bucket is indispensable for construction and excavation work. The mini excavator is a machine adapted for short movements on the construction site. If necessary, this excavator can be easily transported to another place with a tow truck or other vehicles designed for this purpose.

Small excavators are used for the following purposes:

• dismantling and demolition of buildings;
• creating trenches for electrical cables and other utilities;
• road construction and pavement rehabilitation;
• clearing the territory from construction debris;
• works in park areas, where the terrain must not be heavily disturbed;
• work inside the excavation or on the roof with delivery of an excavator by a crane.

Types of mini excavators

The standard mini backhoe is a compact equipment used operating weight not exceeding 8 tons. The main working body of any model is a bucket, which is used to pick up the ground and move it to a new location or to load it for subsequent removal from the site.

Small excavators can be of tracked or wheeled type. A large part of such technique is equipped with crawler tracks. The tracks are made of rubber or steel. The latter option provides a better traction with the ground. In addition, the advantage of the tracks is that they can be quickly replaced.

The wheeled travel is most often found on trailed excavators.

Advantages of mini excavators

The performance of any mini excavator depends on its technical characteristics. The following features of the special equipment are distinguished:

• speed of movement;
• working radius;
• ultimate height at raised bucket;
• digging depth;
• bucket size;
• engine power;
• operating weight, etc.

One of the advantages of new small excavating machines is that they can complete all the tasks assigned to regular sized excavators. Their transportation to the place of work is many times cheaper than the delivery of more massive equipment. This is especially important when construction sites are located in different parts of the city. Such equipment will be paid off good if it is used for short-term work.

So, a mini excavator would be ideal for excavating small pits of up to 6 cubic meters, each of which requires only a few movements of the bucket. If the pits are far apart, transporting a small excavator to them will be much more profitable than moving heavy equipment.
