Comparing the CAT 345 GC and the Volvo EC480D excavators, both machines are designed for high-load tasks with substantial horsepower and standard features such as AC Cabins and GPS. The CAT model boasts a powerful hydraulic system and impressive digging force, while the Volvo offers a wider range of bucket capacities and a larger fuel tank, enhancing its operating efficiency.
Your choice between the CAT 345 GC and the Volvo EC480D should be based on the specific requirements of your projects. If you need flexibility and longer operation times with a larger fuel capacity, the Volvo EC480D might be the better option. On the other hand, if hydraulic system capabilities and raw digging force are more critical for your tasks, the CAT 345 GC could be the preferred choice.
