Tata Hitachi EX 2600-6
Pros
- Powered by a ~1 500 HP (1 119 kW) Cummins engine, great for heavy mining and large earthworks.
- Six main pumps offering very high total flow (~2 800 L/min), excellent for fast cycle times with large buckets and attachments.
- Large variations in boom/arm allow deep digging, high dumping, and strong reach — ideal for mine loading and heavy trenches.
Volvo EC950E
Pros
- Powered by a diesel Volvo D16E engine with ~450 kW / ~611 hp for heavy tasks and continuous operation.
- Excellent breakout and tear‑out forces suited for mining/quarrying.
- Volvo design emphasizes accessible maintenance points and dealer support worldwide, reducing downtime.
