　　In the Liangguang region, for a long time before, Japanese brand excavators were praised as the "Liangguang Divine Vehicle" due to their high efficiency, low consumption, and durability. It was quite difficult for domestic brand excavators to enter the market, but this situation has undergone tremendous changes in recent years.

 

 

　　Fuel consumption, efficiency, and input-output ratio completely outperform joint venture brands; Mr. Mo has replaced all site excavators with Liugong's.

　　Mr. Mo's company is a family business with a long history of purchasing Liugong equipment. As early as 2008, they bought the Liugong excavator 220-3, and have purchased many C and D series excavators. They started buying when Liugong excavators still had manual throttle control. Now, the Mo family owns dozens of Liugong excavators, as well as loaders, bulldozers, rollers, mining dump trucks, and other complete sets of equipment.

　　Focusing only on earthwork projects, Mr. Mo summarized a path to wealth: the biggest demand for equipment is high efficiency, low fuel consumption, and fast speed. The reason for choosing Liugong excavators is their fuel consumption and speed. Before using Liugong excavators, the Mo family only purchased Japanese brands praised as the "Liangguang Divine Machines." Mr. Mo stated that compared to the input-output of Japanese brand excavators, Liugong is more cost-effective.

　　Taking the Liugong 50-ton class as an example: in terms of loading efficiency, the Liugong 950 has a more obvious advantage. For the same 50-ton class excavator, with the same tonnage and bucket size, a certain Japanese brand 490 cannot match Liugong's, and Liugong's fuel consumption is even 10L/hour less.

　　Additionally, taking the early purchased Liugong 20-ton class excavator as an example, in terms of purchase cost, the money for two certain joint venture excavators can buy three Liugong excavators; in terms of fuel consumption, Liugong 922 can save 5 to 10 liters per hour.

　　When comparing input-output ratios, Mr. Mo said, "The stereotype is that Japanese brand excavators are known for durability," and everyone believes their service life is better than domestic excavators. In fact, the 922D Mr. Mo bought years ago, which he operated himself, served for 7 to 8 years. Therefore, in terms of fuel consumption, speed, purchase cost, and service life, Liugong excavators completely outperform these brands.

 

　　Guangxi's first 950 and first 990F, pursuing higher efficiency, the Mo family has always led earthwork operations in Guangxi.

　　At a logistics site near Xijiang Airport in Wuzhou, Guangxi, there is a full set of Liugong 50-ton class excavators, half loading and half breaking.

 

 

　　Here, Mr. Mo invested in two 956EHD breakers. His economic calculation is clear: as long as it can work and earn enough money, it's fine. He also introduced that they purchased Guangxi's first CLG950E, and under their demonstration, nearby mine owners have successively acquired 50-ton class breakers.

 

 

　　Considering higher construction efficiency, Mr. Mo purchased Guangxi's first 990FHD Liugong super large excavator in December 2020. He said that due to the recent purchase of a large batch of Liugong Hummer mining dump trucks, pairing large excavators with large trucks is more efficient, so a larger tonnage excavator is needed. Most sites settle based on earthwork volume; the more excavated and loaded quickly, the higher the profit.

　　Moreover, the Liugong 990FHD is equipped with a Perkins engine and Japanese imported Kawasaki pump, providing stronger power and exponentially increased construction efficiency, helping the Mo family secure more projects. Now Mr. Mo is "eyeing" Liugong's latest excavator model (965EHD), saying that as soon as it is launched, he will go to the site to inspect its operational efficiency.

　　After the visit, the editor's feeling is that this place is simply the kingdom of Liugong excavators. It is well known that Liugong's main base is in Liuzhou, Guangxi. The home court advantage is one aspect, but more importantly—according to Liugong Qianlitong sales staff—while Liugong was laying out rural infrastructure in other enterprises, it had already taken the lead in mining and large road and bridge construction projects. Also, the test field for large excavators is in the mine. Large excavators produced in Liuzhou must undergo rigorous actual mining condition tests before reaching users' sites.

 

　　Guangxi is densely forested and rich in mining. Considering the entire lifecycle customer usage cost of equipment, Liugong invests a lot of manpower and resources in excavator structural parts, engine fuel consumption, torque, and other aspects, continuously upgrading product technology. This is why the new generation of Liugong excavators performs brilliantly; why there are Liugong large excavators all over the mountains with fast loading speed, strong breaking and striking power, fuel-saving and high efficiency.
