| Quick Overview: |
Liebherr positions the R 998 SME Litronic between construction machines and true mining excavators, and Indian quarry groups use it exactly that way. Weighing 97700-101400 kg, it runs a Liebherr D9508 rated 571 HP and swings buckets of 5.20-7.20 m³ with 506 kN of digging force at the bucket. Maximum digging depth is 7350 mm.
Think large limestone and granite quarries, cement captive mines and bulk overburden contracts. A 1498 L fuel tank covers long shifts, the machine dumps at 8500 mm into high-sided tippers, and factory support comes through Liebherr rather than a chain of intermediaries.

The CAT 395 is an approximately 95-ton extra-large hydraulic crawler excavator made for open-pit mining, mass earthmoving, and the largest infrastructure projects in India. This excavator from Caterpillar Construction Equipment features a Cat C18 engine that provides 543 HP while using up to 15% less fuel than earlier large excavator models under similar conditions. Weighing around 94,100 kg, it delivers 10% more swing torque and stick force than the 390F it replaces. The maximum digging depth of 7,380 mm allows for deep pit work in standard configuration. A bucket capacity of 6.5 m³ can load a 70-tonne truck in five to six passes, significantly lowering the cost per tonne. The exclusive hydrostatic swing circuit uses a bi-directional swing pump and a charge accumulator for smooth, energy-efficient multitasking. Power, Smart, and Eco modes give operators control over fuel use across different work conditions. Standard features include Factory-fitted Caterpillar Payload, Cat Grade with 2D, Lift Assist, 2D E-Fence, and Work Tool Recognition. The cab offers a large touchscreen, automatic climate control, Operator ID keyless start, and standard rear and side cameras. Synchronized service intervals help cut maintenance costs by up to 20% compared to the previous model. The 1,220-litre fuel tank enables uninterrupted long shifts on remote project sites. This heavy-duty CAT excavator is considered a standard machine for large mining companies and major earthmoving contractors aiming for high production volumes in India.
