The Case 680L, 1990 model combines the SideShift or CenterMount system which has a dig depth of 5030 mm and a reach at ground level of 6040 mm, providing an efficient and productive performance during excavation tasks. With a loading height of 3420 mm, this maximises the reach when working with limited headroom. This allows excavation tasks to be completed on-site more quickly and cost-effectively than with a standard excavator. In addition, the same machine can be used for applications in constricted spaces such as urban areas.
The adjustable range for the bucket width, from 305-914 mm provides flexibility and versatility for a range of tasks and applications, including excavation, demolition, demolition, shoveling, clearing and loading. This adjustable range is advantageous because it allows the machine to adapt to changing work requirements, saving on time and cost compared to having to purchase and operate additional machines. For example, a contractor who needs to dig a trench in the morning and then use the same machine to load topsoil in the afternoon can do so without having to change out the bucket.
The bucket and dipper breakouts of 5022 and 3844 kgf respectively, allow for forceful and efficient loading of material and movement of objects, offering a shift capacity of up to 1.34 m3. This higher breakout force allows the excavator to move and transport objects quicker and more easily than conventional excavators, thereby allowing increased productivity. For instance, a landscaping company may need to move and lay large quantities of stone quickly; by using the Case 680L, 1990 model, the project can be done more quickly since the stronger breakout force allows for larger, faster and more efficient shifts.
The engine make and model, Case 6-590, has a powerful engine power of 67 kW @ 2200 rpm. This ensures optimal performance of the machine, as the power is sufficient to manage the various applications the 680L is suited for. This higher engine power also enables increased speed and efficiency of operations compared to other models, thus saving time and energy. For example, when drilling for geothermal energy extraction, the higher engine power will allow for faster and more accurate drilling instead of a slower, more laborious process.
