Heavy Construction Machinery

Heavy Construction Machinery

Heavy equipment refers to heavy-duty vehicles, specially designed for executing construction tasks, most frequently ones involving earthwork operations. They are also known as heavy machines, heavy trucks, construction equipment, engineering equipment, heavy vehicles, or heavy hydraulics. They usually comprise five equipment systems: implement, traction, structure, power train, control and information. Heavy equipment functions through the mechanical advantage of a simple machine, the ratio between input force applied and force exerted is multiplied. Some equipment uses hydraulic drives as a primary source of motion.

Equipment Trader offers over 99,000 pieces of equipment in both new and used categories. Specializing in earthmoving and industrial equipment, this is a great resource especially for commercial firms.

And if you’re looking to get rid of old equipment or are a dealer, Equipment Trader is fairly easy to use to create a listing. Owners can list their equipment through their seller portal—but user be warned, there is sometimes a 72-hour waiting period because Equipment Trader verifies every listing.
