The Difference Between Bulldozers And Graders, Scrapers And Loaders

Nov 11, 2020

What are the differences between bulldozers and graders? What is the difference between a scraper and a loader? Some people say that the bulldozer's shovel is in the front, and its main purpose is to transport materials and flatten them, which has a wide range of applications. The shovel of the grader is installed in the middle, the main purpose is to level the materials, and it is mainly used in road administration projects. Scrapers belong to earthwork engineering machinery, and loaders belong to loading and unloading machinery. The difference between a forklift and a bulldozer is that the bulldozer is generally a chain track. Forklifts are tires! In addition, the bulldozer is a push, and the forklift can be pushed and loaded, so it is also called a loader! This is correct, but it is not specific enough. The following editor of Xianji will introduce the difference between bulldozer and grader, scraper and loader in detail.




What is a motor grader? What are the effects?




Motor grader is a kind of mechanical equipment that uses scraper blades installed between the front and rear axles and can flexibly lift, rotate and extend. Motor graders are widely used in agriculture, highways and construction projects due to their special functions. They are often used to complete large-area ground leveling, road construction, farmland improvement, slope scraping, bulldozing, snow removal and other tasks. Fast, efficient, and multi-purpose construction machinery plays an important role in daily life.




What is a bulldozer? What are the effects?




A bulldozer is a machine composed of a tractor as the driving machine and a bulldozer with cutting blades; it is used to clear land, road structures or similar tasks.




A bulldozer is a kind of engineering vehicle. The front is equipped with a large metal bulldozer. When in use, the bulldozer is put down to shovel and push mud, sand and stones forward. The position and angle of the bulldozer can be adjusted. The bulldozer can complete the excavation, transport and unloading work alone, and has the characteristics of flexible operation, convenient rotation, small working surface required, and fast driving speed. It is mainly suitable for shallow excavation and short-term transportation of soils of one to three types, such as site cleaning or leveling, excavation depth of foundation pits and backfilling, pushing and constructing subgrades of low height, etc.




For example, in road construction, bulldozers can complete the treatment of the roadbed base, take soil from the roadside and add an embankment with a building height of no more than 1 meter, shovel and transfer along the center line of the road, and transport the soil for the roadbed excavation and filling project. The soil builds a roadbed of half embankment and half trench. In addition, bulldozers can also be used to level the ground, accumulate loose materials, and remove obstacles in the work area.




It can be seen from the above that the difference between a bulldozer and a grader is not the same except for the structure. The grader is mainly used for road surface or ground leveling, and then compacted with a roller or other follow-up operations. It can also be used for earthwork operations, but it is subject to traction. , The blade capacity is limited, the effect is far inferior to bulldozers; bulldozers are mainly used for earthwork operations, such as excavation of rivers, short distance movement of earth and stone, leveling is also one of the functions of bulldozers, but the efficiency is not as high as that of graders.




Generally speaking, bulldozers have more working conditions and uses than graders.




What is a loader (forklift)? What are the effects?




Loader, commonly known as: forklift, it is a kind of earthwork construction machinery widely used in roads, railways, construction, hydropower, ports, mines and other construction projects. It is mainly used for shoveling soil, sand, lime, coal and other bulk materials. It can also be used for light shoveling operations on ore, hard soil, etc. Different auxiliary working devices can also be used for bulldozing, lifting and other materials such as timber loading and unloading operations. In road construction, especially in the construction of high-grade highways, loaders are used for filling and excavating roadbed works, asphalt mixtures and aggregate and loading of cement concrete yards. In addition, it can also carry out operations such as pushing soil, leveling the ground, and pulling other machinery. Because the loader has the advantages of fast working speed, high efficiency, good maneuverability, and light operation, it has become one of the main types of earth and stone construction in engineering construction.




What is a scraper? What are the effects?




Scrapers are a kind of trackless equipment in mines, which are widely used in the mining and transportation of underground mines. Trackless mining equipment with scrapers and dump trucks as the core has become the mainstream of mining technology development at home and abroad. At present, the widely used scrapers on the market are divided into two types: internal combustion scrapers and electric scrapers. The internal combustion scrapers are suitable for a well-ventilated working environment and are flexible and efficient; electric scrapers are more environmentally friendly. , No pollution.




The main differences between scrapers and loaders:




Different uses.


The main purpose of the scraper is to shovel and transport. Eager to shovel and transport.


The main purpose of the loader is loading. Although the current loaders are multi-purpose, the loaders can easily realize the interchange of work tools such as general-purpose buckets, rock-type buckets, fire-proof and environmental-friendly buckets, side dump buckets, sliding forks, etc. The working conditions require the configuration of dozers, booms, snow plows, clamps and other machines to realize multiple functions in one machine. But the main purpose is still loading.




Structure difference:




The scraper has a small distance from the ground, and the middle of the bucket relies on the expansion and contraction of a tipping bucket cylinder to realize the bucket movement. Generally used in relatively flat places with little resistance. There is a long boom in front of the loader, and there are boom cylinders on the left and right sides of the boom. The bucket is equipped with tipping cylinders, which can dump materials directly into the truck box, which is not possible with a scraper.




The above is the introduction of the difference between graders, bulldozers, loaders (forklifts), and scrapers. The editor of Xianji.com introduces the structure and purpose of these four construction machinery. Generally speaking, graders, bulldozers, The difference between loaders (forklifts) and scrapers is: graders are more suitable for large-area ground operations, and bulldozers are more suitable for shallow excavation and short-hauling of soils of Type I to III. The main purpose of forklifts is to load vehicles, but they can also The machine is multi-purpose, and the scraper is self-shovel and self-transport.
