HD Hyundai Construction Equipment North America expanded its HX crawler excavator product line with two new large-frame mass excavators.
According to Hyundai, the 82-ton HX800A L and the 100-ton HX1000A L are designed to meet the needs of high-volume earthmoving, mining and quarrying applications.
The HX800A L has a 528-net-hp engine while the HX1000A L is equipped with a 620-net-hp engine. Each machine can be configured with various boom and arm configurations to match the material being excavated.
The HX800A L supports buckets in the 4.5- to 7-cu.-yd. capacity range. The HX1000A L, meanwhile, supports buckets in the 7- to 8.9-cu.-yd. range.
“These heavy-duty Hyundai excavators are engineered to deliver peak performance in mines, quarries and large-scale construction projects,” says Joe Hodges, product manager at Hyundai. “Both machines were built to ensure maximum productivity while reducing total cost of ownership.”
As Hyundai describes, both new excavator models offer selectable power modes and an electronic power-optimizing system for control over machine power and efficiency. The HX800A L comes with an integrated smart power control system that monitors the excavator’s real-time performance data and automatically tunes the engine power and hydraulic flow to match the operational requirements for maximum performance.
The cab of the HX800A L and HX1000A L is designed for comfort and safety, Hyundai adds, featuring Level 2 FOPS (falling-object protection systems) protection and advanced vibration-damping mounts. The Hyundai AAVM (all-around view monitoring) camera system gives operators a 360-degree view to the worksite around the machine, enhancing operational safety.
Also, the company says an 8-in. touchscreen monitor provides easy access to control menus, power settings and auxiliary hydraulic settings.
