Komatsu PC 225 LC
Pros
- The ~165 HP engine provides solid torque and power for deep-digging and medium to heavy excavation works such as foundation, quarrying, trenching, and loading.
- Komatsu excavators are known globally for robust build quality, longevity, and reliability in tough jobsite conditions.
- Modern cabins (air-conditioned, ergonomic controls) reduce operator fatigue and improve productivity on long shifts.
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.
