Particulars Caterpillar 424 Bull SD76 BS5 Super Smart
Overview Summary

The Bull SD76 BS5 Super Smart and Caterpillar 424 are both powerful backhoe loaders in a similar price range boasting unique features and capabilities. The Bull model excels with smart technology, superior lift capacity, and a larger shovel, while the Caterpillar shines with its high torque, better hydraulic system efficiency, and greater axle durability.

Bull SD76 BS5 Super Smart

Pros:
  • Smart technology with GPS as standard for enhanced operation
  • Two engine options providing similar power but different torque characteristics
  • Higher excavator digging force of 5936 kgf for robust performance
  • Higher maximum lift capacity of 1400 kg for backhoe operations
  • Higher shovel breakout force of 8183 kgf indicates stronger loading capability
  • Larger fuel tank capacity of 115 L for extended operation times
  • Maximum speed of 39 km/hr is slightly higher for quicker transit on site
  • Optional AC Cabin for operator comfort
Cons:
  • Heavy machine weight of 8010 kg may affect maneuverability
  • Slightly less efficient hydraulic pump flow rate of 119 L/min compared to Caterpillar 424
  • Lower maximum digging depth by a small margin compared to Caterpillar 424

Caterpillar 424

Pros:
  • High torque output of 424 Nm provides strong driving force
  • Closed center, variable displacement pump with superior flow rate of 132 L/min
  • Front axle design suited for rough terrains with high ground clearance and durability
  • Higher system pressure of 245 bar for efficient hydraulic operations
  • Better reach ground to rear wheel specification, which could imply more operational flexibility
  • Fixed rear axle with planetary reduction and differential lock improves traction and stability
  • Excavator arm digging force is higher at 6562 kgf, indicating stronger capabilities
Cons:
  • Lower standard shovel capacity of 1.05 m³ compared to Bull's 1.26 m³
  • Slightly lower max speed of 37.5 km/hr could affect movement speed on site
  • Smaller fuel tank at 160 L might mean more frequent refueling depending on usage

Pros:
Cons:

Closing Recommendation

Choosing between the Bull SD76 BS5 Super Smart and Caterpillar 424 will depend on specific job requirements. If you prioritize smart features, lifting capacity, and shovel force for heavy-duty tasks, the Bull may be more suitable. However, if torque, hydraulic efficiency, and stability on rough terrains are critical for your operations, the Caterpillar 424 would be the preferable choice.
