A cable excavator operates using a system of cables and pulleys to move its digging tools and bucket. The machine typically includes a rotating superstructure mounted on a tracked or wheeled base, allowing it to swing and position the bucket effectively. As the operator pulls on the cables, they control the movement of the bucket to dig, lift, and dump material. This method provides precise control and is particularly effective for tough terrain or large excavation tasks.

What is a excavator?

EXCAVATOR are heavy construction equipment consisting of a boom, stick, bucket and cab on a rotating platform (known as the "house"). The house sits atop an undercarriage with tracks or wheels. A cable-operated excavator uses winches and steel ropes to accomplish the movements. They are a natural progression from the steam shovels and often called power shovels. All movement and functions of a hydraulic excavator are accomplished through the use of hydraulic fluid, with Hydraulic cylinders and Hydraulic motors. Due to the linear actuation of hydraulic cylinders, their mode of operation is fundamentally different from cable-operated excavators.
