Introduction

A hydraulic excavator is a bulky vehicle that is utilized and designed for excavation and demolition purposes. Moreover, hydraulic excavators can be used efficiently for moving large amount of minerals and materials from one place to other. Hydraulic excavators are also termed as diggers, 360­­0 excavators or JCBs. Hydraulic excavators consist of various devices, which include chassis, bucket and boom and it is moved via wheels or tracks.

Hydraulic excavators are mainly used for construction activities such as foundation digging, drilling shafts and grading. All the movements and functions of the hydraulic excavators are done by the help of hydraulic cylinders, fluids and motors. Hydraulic excavators find applications in mining, infrastructure and other similar sectors. Modern hydraulic excavators come in a wide range of sizes. Smaller sized are termed as compact or mini excavators.

Large sized excavators are termed as crawler hydraulic excavators. Hydraulic excavators have various advantages such as they are available widely in the market and can be purchased new as well as used, and they are available in various sizes, which makes the users choose appropriate one to work on defined tasks within a project area and can also be shifted from one place to another by the help of trucks. However, the hydraulic excavators are very expensive and use a large amount of fuel. They are also difficult to repair owing to the large size and moving parts.

Globally, the market for hydraulic excavators experienced a decline in the recent past. This was mainly due to the economic turndown in last years, but with the growing urbanization, the demand for the hydraulic excavators is gaining momentum again.
