One of the most trusted brand names in the UK, when it comes to excavator manufacturers, is Hitachi.
Hitachi excavators are known for their power and fuel-efficiency. The improvements started way back in 2003, as Hitachi introduced their Zaxis excavators with much improvement when it comes to the equipment’s cycle time, digging force and overall performance.
Since Hitachi excavators go easy on your fuel, it is the most practical equipment to use during fuel crises. The Auto-Accel power mode of the excavators is the reason why it is so fuel efficient. The Auto Accel power mode changes the speed of the engine to match the pressure of the hydraulics system—about 10% of fuel can be saved with each Hitachi excavator that is put into use.
Boom and stick joint greasing interval has gone up to as much as 500 hours with the special thrust plates and bushings. That means the engines can go for 500 hours in between oil changes while the interval for hydraulic oil changes is at an amazing 4,000 hours!
World Class Excavators
Hitachi excavators are world class machines, which are built to be efficient and environment-friendly. Hitachi manufactures excavators that aptly comply with the European emission control standards. One European construction machinery survey came up with the result that Hitachi is the best excavator company in terms of efficiency and accomplishment of workload.
Users of excavators all over the world usually want their machines to be a cut above all other machines in terms of level of performance. Hitachi has achieved this with its excavators’ increased horsepower, a fluid compound motion, durability, fast front motion and as well as an increase on its payload capacity. Also, the excavators make use of engine RPM control, hydraulic pressure and torque to come up with increased workloads that are incomparable to other brands.
This is quite the opposite with the excavators that are produced by other manufacturers. Often, these companies equate engine power with fuel consumption. Most of the other excavators in the market promise to deliver the required payload while eating up much fuel – this is just a waste of precious fuel and your money!
Hitachi excavators have supreme hydraulic systems and engines that are all specially made in Japan—nowhere else. As the world knows, Japanese technology is synonymous to precision and durability. So, when it comes to excavators needs, trust no one else but the name Hitachi.
