CAT 321
Pros
- 136 HP Cat C3.6 engine delivers strong digging performance.
- An advanced electrohydraulic system improves cycle time.
- Eco Mode and Intelligent ECM help reduce fuel consumption
ZOOMLION ZE215E
Pros
- 9.6–9.8 m digging/reaching distance is competitive in the 20-ton class — enough for standard trenching and material placement tasks.
- 9.6 m max digging height means you can load many AY/HD trucks and dump into bins without repositioning too often.
- 6.7–6.8 m dumping height lets you build moderate stockpiles or load medium chassis vehicles without excessive boom extension.
