This is the last issue of the DEVELON European excavator series. In the previous issues, we introduced all the models sold by DEVELON in Europe. In the next issue, we will introduce the models sold in other regions. Users of this information will find that excavators in different regions have different product models and parameter configurations when they check the DEVELON official website and information. This has been described in detail in the previous issues.
Today, the tire excavator is equipped with the DEVELON DL06V engine from the official configuration. The lowest model of this engine has been used from DX140 to DX210W, which is indeed a very large span. In terms of engine power and speed, DEVELON has certain upgrades and adjustments for different models. The low-power version has a speed of 2000rpm, and the high-power version of the DL06V has an engine speed of 1900rpm. The lowest power output is 103Kw, 113Kw, 130Kw, and 141Kw. For an excavator, the potential of the DEVELON engine is brought to the extreme. However, for users, the actual use experience is not much different. For the DX210W excavator, the power of 141Kw is also sufficient.
We still recommend that users choose the DX190W-7. The difference in bucket capacity power efficiency between the two is 0.1m³, but the price of the new machine is not much different from the core assembly, and the maximum main pump flow of the excavator on the hydraulic system is also different. Here customers can buy according to their favorite products.
There are many tire excavators to choose from at this price. Basically, all tire excavators from all manufacturers compete mainly within 20 tons. How big is the performance gap between tire excavators of different brands now? In fact, it is very small. It takes a long time to find a little difference in one-to-one comparison at work, so the main competition is in the three aspects of price, service, and after-sales.
The after-sales service system provided by construction machinery manufacturers and sellers currently known to the public varies from 1 to 2 years. Considering the different national policies and preferential conditions provided by manufacturers, there are also differences. Buying a new machine requires a local mature service provider. However, when your excavator is used beyond the warranty service period, you can only rely on individuals or find local private individuals for repairs in the later stage. Buying a new machine also needs to consider the local brand share. The higher the share, the greater the convenience of purchasing accessories and repairs in the later stage.
So how to choose for users with low budgets or wholesale purchases? Tiedou Used Excavator Trade Network provides more than 20 kinds of construction machinery of various brands around the world, especially tire excavators are increasingly widely used. Providing high-quality construction machinery has become the foundation of Tiedou. The value retention rate of tire excavators is similar to that of crawler excavators. Relying on brand and market recognition, the price of tire excavators does not fluctuate much.
How much discount can you get from buying a used tire excavator compared to a new one? Tiedou market research shows that the price ratio between new and used tire excavators in the second quarter of 2024 is 1-1.7:3. The maximum price difference is close to 72%, which is of course based on the fact that the excavator can perform normally.
Many of the models introduced above are not available in Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Of course, the manufacturer has its own considerations for this. Many countries and regions are very targeted at brands or models, and there is no need to spend a lot of money to promote a market without demand.

The demand for used excavators is currently surging. With the complexity of the world environment, engineering machinery has now become a necessary productivity tool, especially in developing countries, conventional/standard crawler excavators are more preferred. They have the greatest performance, and there is a big difference in the price of tire excavators or the subsequent maintenance costs.
