Amphibious Excavator XE215SLL With 17M Long Reach Boom Isuzu Engine

Product Specification

What is the Difference between Amphibious Excavator and Common Hydraulic  Excavator?
The undercarriage of amphibious excavator was modified and replaced with a pontoon which can provide certain buoyancy so that excavators can work in the swamp, silt or other water enviroments.
Application of Amphibious Excavators: 
Amphibious excavators can be used on land, in shallow water, marshes, and deep water areas as well as on ponds, rivers, lakes, coastlines and other complex contruction terrain. Our amphibious excavators have been tested in practice for many years and are widely favored by end users. The pontoon undercarriage can be customized to suit 5-40 tons of various types of excavators, depending on your working conditions and needs. 
Advantages of Our Undercarriage Pontoon for Amphibious Digger:
1. Lightweight design instead of big pontoons: the pontoon's buoyancy is less than the total weight, so even if the excavator touches the riverbed, it still can work normally. On the other hand, lightweight excavators are more adaptable to shallow water areas such as silt and swamps design. The material strength increases while allowing the weight of the excavator to be reduced. By doing so, we will increase walking speed, reduce fuel consumption, and improve construction speed, reduce fuel consumption, and improve the speed of project. 2. Chain plate is made by high strength HG785 to increase wear resistance & impact resistance. 3. Track chain is made by high-strength & heat-treated steel 40Cr.
How to Choose a Suitable Amphibious Excavator?
1. Upper structure of excavator: choose one excavator according to your project first then we will make suitable pontoon for your machine. 
2. Depth of water: make sure how many meters the water will be in your working area. If the water is less than 1.5m, then main pontoon is enough to make the machine foat on water surface. While if the water is more than 2-5 meters then side pontoon is needed because water depth exceeds the height of main pontoon. 
3. Positioning piles are optional. If working in smooth water and no need for frequent digging then no need to add spuds. However, hydraulic spuds are suitable for frequent-moving working condition through hydraulic power which is operated in cabin. 
In deep water areas, the design of the main pontoon and side pontoon makes the excavator more stable and not easy to roll over. At the same time, the relatively long reach arm, the wider oprating radius, and the standard arm can also make the machine to work normally.
Technical Specification of XE215SLL Amphibious Excavator

Track Chains of Our Amphibious Pontons are Made of High Resistant and Durable 40cR Steel and the Track Shoes are Speicially Made of H785Q High Strength Steel Which can Guarantee Long Life of Chains & Shoes, and will be more safe to work in deep water. 


How to Ship Amphibious Excavator?
1. Dismantle the upper structure of the excavator then load into 1x40ft flat rack with side pontoon. 

2. Dismantle the undercarriage pontoon into 2 parts then load into 2x40ft containers seperately. 


3. Loading arm, boom and bucket of Amphibious Excavator into another 40ft container.
