Large Excavator 36 Ton With 245kN Digging Force Introduction
Selecting a large excavator requires a careful assessment of digging force, bucket capacity, hydraulic performance and working dimensions. For contractors managing substantial excavation projects, these technical parameters are essential when matching equipment with actual construction requirements.
The HIGHTOP HT360 large crawler excavator has an operating weight of 36,000 kg and a specified bucket capacity range of 1.6–1.8 m³. Its bucket digging force reaches 245 kN, while the arm digging force is rated at 185 kN.
This combination provides substantial excavation capability for projects involving large volumes of soil removal, foundation preparation and repeated material-handling operations.
The machine offers a maximum digging depth of 7,370 mm, a maximum digging reach of 11,100 mm and a maximum digging height of 10,200 mm. Its maximum unloading height of 7,135 mm is another important measurement when evaluating loading arrangements and compatible transport equipment.
Rather than selecting machinery based on operating weight alone, buyers can use these specifications to assess the HT360 against excavation geometry, required loading height and available working space.
For projects requiring a smaller machine, buyers can compare the HT360 with the HIGHTOP HT210 Excavator. Additional construction equipment is available through the HIGHTOP Product Center.

Large Excavator 36 Ton With 245kN Digging Force Product Applications
Large-Scale Earthmoving
The HT360 can be considered for projects involving bulk excavation, substantial soil removal and large construction-site preparation.
Its 245 kN bucket digging force and 1.6–1.8 m³ bucket capacity provide useful technical references for evaluating earthmoving and loading requirements.
Actual output depends on material characteristics, working conditions and the selected bucket configuration.
Foundation and Deep Excavation
With a maximum digging depth of 7,370 mm and a maximum vertical digging depth of 6,380 mm, this large crawler excavator can be evaluated for foundation excavation and other projects requiring significant vertical working range.
The maximum digging depth of 7,190 mm at a 2.5 m horizontal level provides additional information for assessing excavation geometry.
Road and Infrastructure Construction
The HT360 can support road-related earthmoving, drainage excavation, ground preparation and infrastructure construction where its technical specifications meet project requirements.
Its maximum digging reach of 11,100 mm provides useful reference data when planning equipment positioning and excavation coverage.
Material Loading and Site Development
The maximum unloading height of 7,135 mm and bucket capacity range of 1.6–1.8 m³ are important considerations when matching the excavator with transport equipment.
Contractors should confirm vehicle dimensions, material characteristics and available working clearance before operation.
