Gobekli Tepe, the oldest-known, man-made structure on the planet, was constructed roughly 12,000 years ago. Since that time, humans have been driven to find fresh, more efficient ways of constructing new buildings and demolishing the old. Using technology such as levers, ramps, pulleys, gears, and more, we have come quite a long way since those first ancient structures. Now, one demolition company in Chicago is again using the latest technology to push the boundaries of construction services.

Alpine Demolition, located near the city of Chicago, has just added the world’s highest reaching excavator to their lineup of cutting-edge machinery, the EC750E HR high-reach excavator. How can this help you accomplish your toughest demolition projects? Keep reading as we discuss that and more here.

Machine Stats

As the latest in high reach demolition excavators, Alpine Demolition’s new excavator boasts some impressive stats compared to other types of excavators. Chief among them is the unmatched operating height. Reaching 118 feet tall, this excavator is the largest on the market, and only the 4 th of its kind in the United States.

Additionally, the excavator has a 35% increased lifting capacity over end, 50% increase in lifting capacity over the side, 12% increased max working height and 10% fuel efficiency increase. So how does this translate to a benefit for you? By using this technology, Alpine can help you accomplish any sized job effectively and efficiently.
