Doosan claims versatility for its new demolition excavator model

The high visibility, tiltable cab on the DX380DM-7 offers a 30° tilting angle and can be used for high reach demolition applications with a maximum pin height for the demolition boom of 23m.

The machine features a hydraulically adjustable undercarriage, which extends to a maximum width of 4.37m for stability. The undercarriage can be retracted hydraulically to 2.97m for transport and features a lubricated, internal cylinder design that minimises resistance during movement and helps to prevent damage to components.  

Standard safety features for the machine include a FOGS cab guard, safety valves for the boom, intermediate boom and arm cylinders and a stability warning system.

The DX380DM-7 offers versatility with its modular boom design and hydraulic lock mechanism. This design allows easy changes between a demolition boom and an earthmoving boom to allow different work using the same machine.

The multi-boom design also allows the earthmoving boom to be mounted in two different ways. A special stand is provided for boom changes, aided by quick-change hydraulic and mechanical coupler connections, with a cylinder system pushing the locking pins into place. Equipped with the digging boom in the straight configuration, the DX380DM-7 can work to a maximum height of 10.43m.

    Demolition is a highly specialised business, as the machinery required to carry out the work on high-rise demolition contracts can be very site specific. Today's high reach demolition rig is no longer simply a tracked excavator with a long boom, indeed some machines cannot be used as excavators at all. Likewise a machine that is dedicated to carrying a 2.5 or 3tonne shear or hammer will need to be built to take the stresses and strains of demolition life.
