SANY SY220C-9

like

Pros

  • A ~7 m reach allows efficient loading of small to medium trucks and bins, and good coverage for trenching and grading tasks within the segment.
  • Boom geometry is well‑suited for tight spaces, making the SY80C‑9 popular for urban excavation, roadside work, and utility trenching
  • The machine intelligently matches hydraulic flow with the boom/arm work profile, improving fuel efficiency during digging and lifting.

LiuGong 921 Di

like

Pros

  • Offers respectable digging depth (~5.9 m) and horizontal reach (~9.2 m), making it suitable for medium‑sized construction and earthmoving tasks like trenching, foundation work, and site prep.
  • The boom and reach balance enables both digging and loading without needing heavy long‑reach modifications.
  • Compared with heavier or lighter models, the 921Di’s boom reach fits well in the 20‑22 t excavator segment
