CAT 345 GC
Pros
- Designed as the GC (“General Construction”) variant with efficiency focus vs heavier models like 345C or 349.
- Good reach and depth for large trenching, earthmoving and general excavation work.
- 630 L/min flow supports heavy implement movement and attachments smoothly.
Tata Hitachi Zaxis 80
Pros
- 7 m reach and ~8.2 m cutting height help with truck loading and general excavation.
- Counted as a mid‑size excavator, it’s stable yet not too heavy for site access.
- Suitable for attachments like breakers, grapples, and augers with decent auxiliary flow (~178.5 L/min referenced).
