The author of this article gives a brief history of this kind of machine and discusses the considerable progress made in the last thirty years as to size, weight, and efficiency. Due to unique applicability to special projects, enormous yield, and capacity to attack extremely hard formations, these excavators enjoy a relatively unchallenged market position. Described here are the different types, component parts, workings, important characteristics, and current manufacturers of these machines.
