There is no lack of special application fields for construction machinery. Although the market demand is limited, the requirements for product performance and quality are extremely stringent, and these fields are often monopolized by foreign brands. As an industry leader, XCMG has taken up the responsibility, pioneered and innovated, and actively developed a variety of special machinery and equipment suitable for special working conditions, including the XE480WGM wheeled gripper for material handling.

Facing the trend of intelligentization and digitalization to promote the green and low-carbon development of the industry in China's ports, the XE480WGM is positioned at the high-end, and the machine adopts a high-power engine with strong explosive power, which improves the working efficiency and reduces the cost of using the machine, and is equipped with the XCMG original electronic throttle control, four-wheel steering control, intelligent collision and anti-roll-over prevention, as well as the drive control system, so that it can easily cope with heavy loads, high-intensity and continuous operation in the ports, wharves, and coal mining fields. It can easily cope with the heavy load, high intensity and continuous working conditions in ports, terminals and coal mines.

As the core hub of maritime logistics, ports have a strong demand for material transfer. To address the industry's pain points, XE480WGM can provide users with multiple types of grabs, including plum blossom grabs, shell buckets, log grabs, electromagnetic suction cups and so on, to meet the different types of material transfer operations.

In order to cope with different working conditions, XCMG has developed a four-wheel steering control system, i.e., four steering modes: front wheel, rear wheel, four wheels and crab shape, and with the independent control technology of the four legs, the XE480WGG can realize continuous operation in narrow and various terrain conditions. The longer and wider variable cross-section compartment frame structure has a stronger load-bearing capacity, which improves the stability and safety of the whole vehicle and better protects the driver's safety.

With flexible transit and efficient operation, XE480WGM has been highly recognized by customers since its launch. In Qingdao, Shandong Province, four XE480WGMs have been deployed to a large port company for cargo handling operations, equipped with customized pulp grippers, with a maximum lifting capacity of 6 tons in a single lift, injecting a brand new impetus for Qingdao Port to enhance the turnover rate of its terminals and to build a pulp transshipment base in the northern part of the country.

Besides being widely used in ports, the XE480WGM is also widely used in the wood processing industry. We interviewed Mr. Li, who has been in charge of equipment in a wood processing plant for many years, and he was very satisfied with the performance of XCMG XE480WGM gripper. Mr. Li said that XCMG gripper is mainly responsible for loading and unloading wood. In recent years, as the company's business volume has risen sharply, the production line must run continuously once it is put into operation, and the reliability of the equipment is very high. Mr. Li said that the XCMG XE480WGM has advanced configuration, reliable quality, a very stable chassis when gripping materials, and smooth and powerful operation, which is completely customized for loading and unloading operations.

In recent years, engineering construction has gradually developed towards segmentation, and diversified construction needs have become more and more prominent. XCMG's special excavators cover six categories, including piling, forestry logging, material handling, railroad maintenance, water conservancy dredging, pipeline corridors, and rock excavation, etc., and are expanding to meet the needs of all kinds of customers, and they have become the preferred brand in the industry.
