Tata Hitachi ZAXIS 870 5G
Pros
- Strong power + high hydraulic flow enables fast, powerful digging cycles and supports heavy attachments.
- Its HIOS IIIB hydraulic system with ECO mode reduces fuel consumption (up to ~4–10% vs older models), lowering operating costs.
- Designed for mining and heavy construction with a strengthened upper structure and reliable undercarriage.
Tata Hitachi EX 215LC Prime
Pros
- The Cummins 6BT5.9C diesel with ~140 hp and ~566 Nm delivers dependable power and torque for typical medium‑duty excavation tasks.
- A bucket capacity up to ~1.70 m³ helps with larger material handling and improved cycle efficiency.
- With a boom of ~5.68 m and ~9.25 m reach, the machine suits general earthwork, trenching, foundation digging, and site preparation.
