Ask for current stock, real machine video, specs, weight, transport size, hydraulic test and export support before quotation.
Volvo EC480 is a 45–53 ton class Volvo crawler excavator for quarry loading, heavy earthmoving and mining support. We usually have around three moving-stock options in China. Before buying, confirm the model version, machine plate, structure and undercarriage condition, disassembly plan, transport limits and current working video.
Volvo EC480 is a large production-class Volvo crawler excavator for buyers who need more capacity than a normal 40-ton machine. It can fit quarry loading, mass earthmoving, mining support, truck loading and heavy construction projects where bucket size, hydraulic power, structure and transport planning all matter.
Some used units may be listed as EC480D, EC480E, EC480DL, EC480EL or Volvo 480 in different markets. The final model version, engine, year, configuration and transport dimensions should always be confirmed by machine plate, engine plate, documents and current working video before quotation.
For this model group, we usually have around three moving-stock options in China. Some machines are original paint, and some are repainted. Meter hours may show around 500–5,000H for reference only. Undercarriage condition varies by unit; some machines have newer or newly replaced undercarriage, while some working-site units may show around 70–80% undercarriage condition.
The main value of Volvo EC480 is its large working size, Volvo brand image, strong production capacity and smoother operation for long working days. But a machine this size should not be bought only by year, paint or low price. Structure, undercarriage, swing, travel, hydraulic power, cooling condition, electronic warnings and transport plan decide the real value.
For EC480D-type units, engine plate, monitor warnings and electronic condition should also be checked before deposit. We can arrange new undercarriage replacement, bucket replacement, breaker piping, breaker hammer or other preparation before shipment. Cost and suitability should be confirmed after checking the current machine condition and the buyer’s job requirement.
Final Volvo EC480 specs, weight and bucket capacity should be confirmed by the current machine, machine plate and documents. Factory parameters are only reference; used units may vary by version, bucket, track width, boom length, attachments and condition.
