Excavators can be seen everywhere in our lives, especially some mini and medium-sized crawler excavators. However, some large excavator equipment works in sparsely populated areas all year round, and many people have never seen it. In fact, there are some excavators here that we may only know about through pictures and videos. This is a giant excavator. This type of excavator basically exceeds 500 tons and is basically invisible in cities and suburbs.
Individuals will basically not buy and use these huge excavators. The prices are horribly high and the purchase cycle is very long. Moreover, some giant excavators even need to be customized and cannot be used within one or two years. Today TD will introduce to you ten mass-produced giant excavators. Because the quantities are rare and most of them have been discontinued, you can only buy used excavators now. Some models have become unusable over time. There are also some models that I will not introduce one by one. There are also some customized models that can only be used on specific occasions. If you want to know more, TD will introduce them to you next time.

This type of excavator is basically actively used in sparsely populated open-pit mines. Although the purchase and use costs are high, it can bring huge profits. Often the working efficiency of one such giant excavator can replace dozens or even hundreds of excavators. Especially in some working environments, smaller excavators cannot meet the requirements of daily use and may even fail to work. If a user wants to buy this type of giant excavator, it is actually very difficult. The first is transportation. The equipment model needs to be dismantled and transported. Moreover, the transportation cost is high and the installation requires a lot of auxiliary equipment and professionals. If you buy a used giant excavator, it is very easy to cause damage to the equipment. This leads to the fact that this type of excavator equipment is basically ignored. Strong bosses usually customize new ones through manufacturers. Of course, the price of used giant excavators is due to the demand. Less, the price on sale will be much cheaper. Therefore, it is best for users to inspect the equipment in person before purchasing.
