Hitachi Construction & Mining Division, an operating division of John Deere Construction & Forestry Company (“Hitachi”) recently announced its latest EX-7 Series mining excavator that provides enhanced efficiency, reliability, and durability.
“With reduced fuel consumption and several hydraulic system improvements, the EX2000-7 provides productivity and efficiency,” said Kendall Mattson, Hitachi mining production system specialist, Hitachi Construction & Mining Division. “Its cutting-edge features also help minimize operating costs while going greener without sacrificing performance.”
With the new Cummins QST30-C, the EX2000-7 features less fuel consumption for significant cost savings and lower environmental impact. Main pump electronic regulators, high hydraulic efficiency regeneration, and a cooling package work together as sustainability technologies that help reduce fuel consumption by up to 20 percent (compared to the previous EX1900-6 model with Cummins configuration).
Additionally, the EX2000-7 simplifies maintenance for increased uptime. A new auto-lubrication system comes with a 200L large capacity grease tank, a new grease pump, an in-line grease filter with breather, a grease level indicator in the cab, and a provision for fitment of a second grease pump in the lubrication tank. These features provide a more reliable system with increased uptime.
