Firstly, we will explain what an excavator is and then talk about how they work and their variations in model types. Another name that is more commonly used for the excavator is a digger, so of course is a large piece of heavy-duty machinery, usually used on building sites. They can be used for an absolute vast array of purposes, from simply shifting soil from one place to another, to digging up tarmac, bulldozing, rearranging wooden pallets, transporting bricks on-site and of course digging for landscape gardening purposes. There are two prominent types of movement types, which are tracked and wheeled. The wheeled style is obvious, they run on large wheels with very deep treads made so they can grip on mud. The other style of footwear for them is the track, much like Army tanks have. Tracked 360 excavators are fantastic for maneuvering around treacherous land on building sites and keeping their stability.

The boom is what the long arm in front of the digger is called and this is controlled from within the operator’s cabin, which is often named the “house”. The controls are all linked to the hydraulic elbows, which power the height and stretch of the boom, and the controls are strangely simple. Five tonnes pieces of machinery can be controlled with simple movements of the thumbs or taps of small buttons. One might assume that a large steering wheel would be involved and that you would need to be extremely strong in order to operate such a machine, which is simply not the case.

Diggers or 360 excavators are not only for digging however; they can be used for a multitude of outdoor purposes. More commonly, you might see them hauling other heavy machinery or pallets of bricks around a new housing development but their uses do not stop there. Forklift attachments can be added to them and even destruction balls for quickly knocking down solid walls. Much larger versions are used in pits and large mines and can weigh in at over 50 tonnes in weight, they are monstrous.

Micro models of the powerful machines are used commonly for small projects or even within the home. Due to their more compact size, they can be steered very easily by a novice and maneuvered into tight spaces. Larger machinery would often require to be lifted in over the top of a house, but small models could drive up a garden path, this is why the seventy-centimeter wide versions were created. The much larger versions which you see on building sites can have in excess of 3000bhp of power at the wheels, this gives them huge torque and immense pulling power. The 360 excavators have all of this along with the ability to spin a full circle without disconnecting from their base or becoming caught on any wired. Their wiring all sits under the cab in a protecting casing so cannot become damaged when trawling over rough grounds.
