JCB NXT 290 LR
Pros
- Very deep dig capability — class-leading reach (~17.3 m) for deep excavation, water work, river dredging, and civil engineering.
- High operating weight (~47 t) gives stability and strength for heavy long-reach operations.
- Suitable for specialized deep-dig jobs that standard excavators can’t reach.
Komatsu PC500LC-10R
Pros
- Powerful engine: ~362 HP (270 kW) provides solid digging and lifting capability.
- Large bucket capacity: ~3.5 – 3.7 m³ for higher material volume per cycle.
- Efficient hydraulic system: Enhanced flow and variable engine‑pump matching for better digging performance.
