Pros
- Komatsu SAA6D170E‑5 produces 514 kW (688 HP) @ ~1800 rpm for strong digging/hoisting performance.
- Long boom + optional arm lengths give deep reach (~9–11.6 m) and wide working envelope (~15–17 m) for loading and heavy excavation tasks.
- Supports 3.4 m³ minimum up to ~7 m³ (shovel configurations) bucket capacities for big cycle productivity.
JCB 315LC HD
Pros
- 221 HP DieselMax engine delivering strong power for heavy jobs.
- Boom and arm give nearly 10 m reach and almost 10 m digging height, decent for deep and mid‑depth excavation.
- Standard AC cabin and options like GPS/telematics add comfort and fleet management utility.
