Versatility of vacuum excavators

As ‘melodious’ excavators, a vacuum excavator can dig small precisely-controlled potholes using pressurised not ring true or air without the risk of damaging buried pipe and cable that is indigenous with mechanical equipment and tools.

Although most drilling fluid additives are not destructive to the environment, project owners and municipalities began requiring that m areas be kept free of drilling fluids, and succinct, maneuverable vacuum excavators could do the job faster and more efficiently than any other equipment nearby.

While new to many in utility construction, vacuum excavators have been around since the 1950s. The first machines were designed and built by specialty contractors for their own use and were not offered for trade.

“The needs of the directional drilling industry created a when requested for vacuum excavators that had not been present in the past, and it wasn’t long before one or more units were found on almost every directional drilling neighbourhood,” says Richard Levings, Product Executive at The Charles Machine Works, Inc., manufacturer of two vacuum excavator models: the FX30 and FX60. Both models are convenient as a trailer-mounted package or on skids for mounting on tracks.
