Characteristics and Applications of Mini Excavators

A small excavator is a small mechanical equipment with small size, light volume, strong power, and can easily obtain various data. Its specific characteristics are as follows: 

 1. Multifunctionality: Small excavators can complete various tasks such as excavation, movement, removal, backfilling, etc., and can install different tools and equipment for use. 

 2. Flexibility: Small excavators have small volume and high flexibility, and can operate in any terrain. 

 3. Save labor costs: Small excavators can replace a lot of manpower, saving labor in large fields and orchards, while also improving construction efficiency and quality. 

 4. Easy to operate: The operation of small excavators is very simple, and operators only need to receive short-term training to master the operation, saving costs in recruitment, training, and management. 

What are the uses of small excavators :

 1. Municipal road engineering industry: In municipal management, it is inevitable to excavate pipe trenches and bury pipelines in foundation pits. Small excavators are the best choice due to their small size and strong flexibility. In addition, the arms of small excavators can swing 90 degrees, which is very useful when digging against walls. Small excavators are also more convenient for transportation, and light trucks or even pickup trucks can be used for shipping. 

 2. House decoration: During house decoration, it is necessary to remove the rotten holes on the walls. Using a small excavator is more efficient than a manual hammer. The specifications of mini excavators are relatively small, and they can climb up and down stairs according to indoor stairs or even elevator cars. 

 3. Rural self built houses and road expansion: Previously, when rural self built houses were constructed, manual excavation of water pipe foundations and trenches was required. Now, those jobs can be solved with small excavators, which not only alleviate workers' labor efficiency but also further improve work speed.

 4. Tunnel construction: Small excavators have a low aspect ratio and can drive into some small and medium-sized tunnels for engineering construction. Some manufacturers have even developed electric small excavators that can better integrate into the natural environment of tunnel construction. 

 5. Landscape work: The natural environment for agricultural and animal husbandry landscape work is very narrow, and the surrounding area is often obscured by trees and crops. In the maintenance of agricultural and pastoral gardens, it is impossible to make good use of large machinery for excavation and trenching, and small excavators are just suitable. 

 6. Vegetable greenhouse excavation: Greenhouse vegetables are generally shorter and large and medium-sized agricultural vehicles cannot work inside, so small excavators are used for excavation and trenching. 

 7. Steel furnace slag cleaning: The key application of steel furnaces or heating furnace weapons and equipment in ironworks is that the entire smelting process will produce a large amount of slag. During the entire slag cleaning process, a small excavator can be used to flip and clean the slag. 

 8. High altitude dangerous operations: In news reports, we often see small excavators working on cliffs, such as cliff construction or disaster relief work. The chassis of this excavator can tilt, keeping a part of the cab level.
