Particulars Tata Hitachi EX 215LC-SLR JCB NXT 245HD LR
Overview Summary

The JCB NXT 245HD LR and Tata Hitachi EX 215LC-SLR are both long-reach excavators designed for dredging and waterfront construction, with the JCB model offering a higher engine horsepower and stronger digging force, while the Tata Hitachi provides a larger bucket capacity and greater engine torque.

JCB NXT 245HD LR

Pros:
  • Higher engine horsepower (140 HP) for potentially better performance
  • Longer undercarriage (4470 mm) for improved stability
  • Larger fuel tank capacity (343 L) for extended operation times
  • Slightly higher max digging reach (15620 mm) for extra reach in excavating
  • Higher bucket digging force (65.5 kN) for stronger digging capability
Cons:
  • Higher price range (₹ 81-83 Lakhs) compared to Tata Hitachi EX 215LC-SLR
  • Heavier operating weight (23850 Kg) which may affect transportability
  • Ground bearing pressure is lower (37.3 kPa) but this can be an advantage for soft grounds
  • Some hydraulic details like pump type are listed, but the relevance to performance is not clear for users

Tata Hitachi EX 215LC-SLR

Pros:
  • Lower price range (₹ 69 - 71 Lakhs) which may be more budget-friendly
  • Greater max torque of the engine (537 Nm @ 1300 rpm) for tough digging conditions
  • Higher hydraulic tank capacity (129 L) possibly means longer hydraulic system operating times
  • Slightly faster swing speed (13.7 rpm) may contribute to quicker cycle times
  • Larger bucket capacity (0.5 m³) for moving more material per cycle
Cons:
  • Lower engine horsepower (131 HP) might reduce performance in some conditions
  • Smaller fuel tank capacity (315 L) could mean more frequent refueling
  • Greater ground bearing pressure (48 kPa) might not be ideal for working on delicate surfaces
  • Slightly less max digging reach on the ground (15452 mm)

Pros:
Cons:

Closing Recommendation

If your priority is heavy-duty performance with a higher digging force and longer reach, the JCB NXT 245HD LR may be the better choice despite its higher cost. On the other hand, if budget is a significant factor and you prefer a machine with a larger bucket capacity and slightly faster swing speed, the Tata Hitachi EX 215LC-SLR might be the preferable option.
