49 Ton Excavator
The mining tycoon, smart-inspiring the future - CARTER CT490-8C 49-ton hydraulic excavator makes a stunning debut
Designed specifically for super-large projects, this excavator redefines the peak of heavy-duty operation efficiency
✅Engine power: 300kW (Cummins engine, perfect balance of strong power and low fuel consumption)
✅Bucket capacity: 2.6m³ (Standard rock bucket, suitable for all scenarios including crushing, excavation and loading)
✅Excavation depth: 7.38 meters (meeting the requirements of deep mining in the mine and the construction of water conservancy hubs)
When the scale of an engineering project is measured in tens of thousands of tons and time is measured in minutes and seconds, efficiency becomes the core factor determining profits and losses. In vast mines, busy ports, and national-level infrastructure construction sites, the requirements for equipment go far beyond "working", but must be "conquering".
The 49-ton hydraulic excavator is precisely the heavy-duty flagship designed for this purpose. It integrates top-notch engineering philosophy, ultimate reliability and forward-looking intelligent technology. It is not merely an excavator, but a strategic asset and profit engine for your large-scale earthwork operations, dedicated to transforming every drop of fuel and every minute of working hours into unparalleled productivity.
Five major application scenarios, all-round competent
Open-pit mine: 2.6m³ rock hopper + 346kN digging force, capable of loading approximately 500 tons of ore per hour. Combined with dump trucks, it can achieve "minute-level loading".
Water conservancy hub: With a excavation depth of 7.38 meters, it meets the construction requirements of dam foundation pits and diversion tunnels, and its efficiency is 40% higher than that of traditional equipment.
Road construction: Intelligent leveling system and automatic slope control, with the construction accuracy of the roadbed controlled within ±2.5cm.
Industrial demolition: An optional 160mm drill rod breaker can be installed, capable of breaking up to 800 cubic meters of reinforced concrete structures in a single day.
Emergency rescue: The maximum climbing slope can reach 70°, the fuel tank capacity is 750L, and it can operate continuously for multiple hours, making it the perfect rescue partner.
