The construction bulldozer is one of the most powerful crawlers that have a sturdy blade part that makes for an efficient equipment. Bulldozer, while often thought of by many as heavy machinery, actually refers to as a dozer bladed tractor.
Often times, the construction bulldozers are tracked vehicles that are gargantuan in size and extremely powerful. Their tracks provide them with amazing mobility as well as the ability to hold on through rough grounds. On the other hand, the wide tracks help in distributing the dozer weight on the wider areas. This helps the bulldozer from sinking in soft or muddy areas.
Construction bulldozers actually possess amazing ground hold. It also has a torque divider that converts the engine power into dragging ability, thereby allowing it to utilize its weight to be able to push those heavy materials and obstruction in front and easily remove objects from any ground.
Over the years, construction bulldozers have experience modifications and changed into becoming much modern and more efficient machinery capable of performing heavy tasks that the original dozers were not. For example, bulldozers become loader tractors by the removal of the blade and substitution of the bucket as well as hydraulic arms, making it effective in scooping of soil and loading the scooped material into trucks.
Original construction bulldozers are bulkier, whereas now there are smaller versions which are best in operating in small work places that allows for limited movement such as tunnels and caves. Mini bulldozers are affectionately called calfdozers.
