JCB 37C HD
Pros
- Compact yet powerful for its class — good balance of size and performance for tight zones.
- Fuel‑efficient Perkins engine (25.3 HP) for lower running costs.
- Superior bucket digging force (~32.4 kN) useful for harder soils.
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.
