Contrastive Analysis of Wheel Excavator and Crawler Excavator





Wheel excavator moves easily, and mainly for some small project in the city, cannot be used in very soft ground. Crawler excavator cannot move on the road, but can work in some muddy ground, and will not be trapped. Crawler excavator’s machine body is bigger and work efficiency is higher than wheel excavator.
Advantages: Efficient for large contact ground area, muddy construction sites, wet lands and other area that easily get stuck; crawler excavator’s comparative heavy self-weight makes it go various more extensive areas; for the crawler belt made of medal ware, the crawler excavator is also qualified to work in those inadequate operating conditions.
Disadvantages: Comparatively speaking, crawler excavator needs more investment, and its movability is not that good with the fastest designing speed being 5-7KM/H, and long distance movement can only depend on dray.
Wheel excavator:
Advantages:  less investment, faster speed with normally 40-50KM/H.
Disadvantages: narrow using range, mostly used in road and city engineering projects. It cannot be operated in mines or muddy wet terrain, and the climbing ability is not very good. So for now, most customers are tend to choose crawler excavators.
