The main reasons for choosing a 2-ton excavator are as follows:
Suitable for operation in narrow spaces: Its body is compact, and the tail rotation radius is small or even zero. It can operate flexibly in narrow spaces such as urban alleys, indoor sites, orchards, greenhouses, etc., which is impossible for large excavators. For example, when laying pipelines in old urban residential areas, a 2-ton excavator can be used in narrow streets and open spaces between buildings, while large excavators simply cannot enter.

Convenient transportation and low cost: There is no need for large trailers or heavy-duty trucks for transportation. Ordinary small transportation tools can carry it, reducing the transportation cost and the requirements for transportation equipment. When transferring between multiple construction sites, it can be transported more quickly and efficiently, improving the mobility of construction.
Multifunctional applications: It can be equipped with a variety of attachments such as breaker hammers, grabs, drilling machines, rippers, etc., to achieve multiple functions such as excavation, crushing, ditch cleaning, drilling, bulldozing, loading and unloading, etc. It can meet different construction scenarios and operation requirements. One piece of equipment can be used as multiple pieces of equipment, improving the utilization rate of the equipment and the return on investment.
Simple and easy to operate: With designs such as hydraulic pilot control handles, the operation is light and easy to master, reducing the labor intensity of operators. For operators with less experience, they can also quickly master the operation skills in a short time, reducing the training cost and time.
Little damage to the site: Generally equipped with rubber tracks, it can effectively reduce the damage to the landscape areas, roads, etc. within the construction site. It is especially suitable for places with high requirements for ground protection, such as parks, squares, high-end residential areas, etc., and the cost of site restoration after construction is relatively low.
Economical and energy-saving: Compared with large excavators, the purchase cost of a 2-ton excavator is lower, which puts less financial pressure on some small engineering companies or individual operators. Moreover, its power is relatively small, with low fuel consumption or power consumption, and it can save a lot of operating costs in daily use.
