The maximum digging depth of a 320 excavator is approximately 6-8 meters. The following is a more detailed introduction:
The 320 model excavator usually belongs to the category of medium-sized excavators and is currently the most widely used excavation equipment. Its standard bucket capacity is between 1.0-1.2 cubic meters. This kind of excavator is widely used in various types of engineering construction, including pipeline laying, real estate infrastructure, mining and other fields.
Under normal working conditions, the maximum digging depth of the 320 excavator is approximately 6-8 meters. This mainly depends on the following factors:
Arm length
The standard boom length of the 320 model excavator is usually between 5.5-6.5 meters. The longer the boom length, the greater the digging depth. The arm length of some extended models of excavators can reach 7-8 meters, and the corresponding maximum digging depth will also increase to about 7-9 meters.
Bucket capacity
The 320 model excavator is equipped with a 1.0-1.2 cubic meter bucket as standard. The larger the bucket capacity, the heavier the counterweight, and the digging depth will increase accordingly. Some special models of 320 excavators can be equipped with large-capacity buckets of 1.4-1.6 cubic meters, and the maximum digging depth can reach 8-9 meters.
Geological conditions
Different geological conditions also affect excavation depth. In hard rock geological conditions, the maximum digging depth of the 320 excavator may be reduced to about 5-6 meters. On soft soil foundation, the maximum excavation depth can reach 7-8 meters.
Additional equipment
Some 320-type excavators will be equipped with special equipment such as hydraulic breakers for crushing and excavation under rocky geological conditions. In this case, the maximum excavation depth will be reduced by the impact of additional equipment.
Generally speaking, under standard working conditions, the maximum digging depth of a 320 model medium-sized excavator is about 6-8 meters. By optimizing the design and selecting an extended arm and a large-capacity bucket, the maximum digging depth can be further increased to 8-9 meters. However, the specific excavation depth is also affected by factors such as geological conditions and additional equipment.
