Wheeled excavators are construction machines that stand out for their mobility and versatility. Unlike crawler excavators, this type of excavator is equipped with pneumatic wheels, providing greater agility on any type of terrain. They can therefore be used in various types of works, such as earthmoving, demolition and land clearing.
This type of excavator can be adapted to various applications in order to maximize productivity and minimize costs. There are several models on the market, such as Develon’s wheeled excavators:
- Develon DX165WR-7: With Perkins 1204J engine (Stage V) and power of 137/102 at 2200 (HP/kW @ RPM), this excavator supports up to 17300 kg.
- Develon DX210W-7: This excavator has a Develon DL06V (Stage V) engine, with power from 189/141 to 1900 (HP/kW @ RPM). The bucket capacity is between 0.51 and 1.32 cubic meters.
- Develon DX250WMH-7: The Develon DX250WMH-7 excavator loads up to 25397/25672 kg. It has a Develon DL06V (Stage V) engine and power of up to 189/141@1900 (HP/kW @ RPM).
- Develon DX100W-7: With 200 main pumps (L/M), this excavator supports operating weights between 10700 and 11100 kg and has a Develon D34 (Stage V) engine.
- Develon DX57W-7: This Develon machine supports up to 5800kg, with a bucket capacity of 0.175 cubic meters. Its Develon D24 (Stage V) engine has power ranging from 52.3/42.5 to 2400 (HP/kW @ RPM).
Advantages of Wheeled Excavators in Construction
Wheeled excavators offer numerous advantages when compared to other excavators. By understanding these benefits, you can make a more informed decision about the best machine for your needs.
Efficiency and versatility of wheeled excavators
Wheeled excavators stand out for their efficiency. Thanks to their compact structure and optimized design, they perform different tasks quickly and precisely. From excavating foundations to removing rubble, these construction machines are capable of adapting to different requirements on a project.
Their versatility can be enhanced by adding various attachments to them, such as grapples, hydraulic hammers, and clamps. This allows you to use the same wheeled excavator for multiple activities, increasing efficiency and reducing the need to invest in several different machines.
Greater mobility and ease of transport
Wheeled excavators are equipped with pneumatic wheels that allow easy movement on uneven terrain, paved surfaces and even public roads. This allows the machine to be moved quickly between different areas of the work site, maximizing productivity.
In addition, wheeled excavators generally have a more compact size and are lighter than crawler excavators. This makes it easier to transport the machine between work sites, reducing costs and time.
Excellent maneuverability
A significant advantage of wheeled excavators is their excellent maneuverability. Thanks to their compact structure and precise steering system, these machines can maneuver in tight spaces.
These features mean that wheeled excavators can access and operate in locations where other, larger machines cannot.
Load capacity
Wheeled excavators also stand out for their load capacity. A feature that allows the same excavator to be used for different operations, from digging foundations to loading and transporting materials.
In this way, wheeled excavators make your project more productive.
The Lifespan of Wheeled Excavators
Wheeled excavators are built to withstand the demanding demands of construction sites, offering a long service life.
With proper preventative maintenance, wheeled excavators can operate for many years.
Wheeled Excavators: the right choice for your project
Efficiency, versatility, mobility, maneuverability and load capacity, in addition to durability, make wheeled excavators an essential tool for countless projects.
By opting for wheeled excavators, you will enjoy increased productivity, cost savings and greater flexibility in performing tasks.
