Bucket wheel excavators

Sandvik bucket-wheel excavators are designed to strip overburden and mine coal, lignite and various soft minerals continuously. With capacities from 150-10000 m3/h (loose), they are capable of mining formations with compressive strengths of up to 20 MPa. Controlled by state-of-the art PLC systems with extensive automation possibilities, they have ergonomic, user-friendly interfaces for operator comfort, quick familiarization and sustained high productivity. Since they are of modular construction, Sandvik bucket wheel excavators are easy to optimize for different applications. All units are custom-built and made to order.


  • Bucket wheel excavators PE100-PE200 series

Our standard range of compact bucket wheel excavators (PE100 series) is designed for small to medium-size opencast mines. All models are of rugged, rational construction, highly productive for their size and weight and very reliable. Models with higher capacities are of the C-frame design (PE200 series). Basic data for the most popular models is given in the table below.
