Crawler Excavators: A Definition
If you are in the market for a heavy-duty digging and earthmoving construction machine, our range of CASE C-series crawler excavators can be your answer. These machines are specifically built for harsh and challenging conditions. They are perfect for mining and quarrying applications and can traverse any terrain type.
So, what separates crawler excavators from similar construction machines? Why should your construction fleet have a crawler excavator as an option? These are important questions that can be answered by simply defining these machines and their functionality. Let’s talk about what makes these machines so unique and how your construction fleet can benefit from having a CASE C-Series at your disposal.
What Defines a Crawler Excavator?
When looking at the name of the vehicle, we can get a solid idea of what to expect from it. “Crawler” refers to the crawler tracks on which the vehicle sits – allowing it to travel over almost any terrain type, including abrasive terrain. This means that it can operate on sites where wheeled vehicles simply cannot. “Excavator” describes its purpose – to dig and excavate by using a heavy-duty swing arm. The swing arm can also be used for earthmoving purposes.
Yes, there are other digging and earthmoving vehicles that are not so large or heavy. However, they will not be as effective as crawler excavators when it comes to speed, strength, and ability. Therefore, it makes sense to have access to a CASE C-Series in your fleet – for when those heavy-duty jobs and tasks prove to be too much for your other digging and earthmoving equipment.
Intended Applications
South Africa’s mining industry is responsible for most of our current exports. This creates a demand for contractors to have digging and earthmoving vehicles that can handle the harsh and demanding environments of mining and quarrying. This is where the CASE C-Series becomes a true competitor in the field of crawler excavators.
The C-Series delivers a variety of Power Boost modes that allows the operator to match the generated power and torque outputs with the task at hand. These modes consist of 3 distinct settings that offer sensible solutions to more economic operations while onsite. You can also expect fast turnaround cycles when operating a C-Series.
