One Machine – Unlimited Material Handling Solutions Across Every Industry

The versatility of an excavator extends far beyond earthmoving. Across industries worldwide, excavators have evolved into indispensable material handling machines capable of loading, unloading, sorting, stacking, feeding, transferring, and processing a wide range of bulk materials.

When equipped with Servoday's Plug-and-Play Electric Excavator Retrofit Kit, a conventional diesel excavator transforms into a high-performance Dual-Mode Electric Material Handler, combining the operational flexibility of diesel mobility with the efficiency of electric power.

Whether operating in a port terminal, steel plant, coal yard, biomass pellet plant, recycling facility, cement works, thermal power station, or mining stockyard, the converted excavator delivers reliable, continuous, and economical performance while significantly reducing fuel consumption, emissions, and maintenance costs.

One Retrofit – Multiple Machine Configurations

Servoday's conversion system is designed to adapt an existing excavator into various specialized industrial machines, depending on customer requirements.

The same excavator can be configured as:

Stationary Electric Excavator
Dual-Mode Electric Excavator
Pedestal-Mounted Excavator
Fixed Boom Material Handler
Electric Scrap Handler
Electric Biomass Handler
Electric Coal Loader
Electric Port Material Handler
Electric Waste Handling Machine
Electric RDF Handler
Electric Ash Handling Excavator
Electric Log & Timber Handler
Electric Steel Plant Material Handler
Electric Bulk Cargo Handler
Electric Wagon Loading Machine
Electric Barge Loading Excavator
Electric Ship Unloading Machine
Electric Foundry Material Handler

This flexibility allows industries to maximize equipment utilization while minimizing capital investment.

Stationary Electric Excavator

A Stationary Electric Excavator is specifically designed for continuous operation from a fixed working position. Unlike construction excavators that frequently travel across sites, stationary excavators remain positioned at a designated location where they repeatedly load, unload, feed, sort, stack, or transfer materials.

Since machine travel is minimal, electric operation becomes the most economical solution.

Typical Applications

Continuous truck loading
Railway wagon loading
Barge loading
Ship unloading
Hopper feeding
Crusher feeding
Conveyor feeding
Stockpile management
Material blending
Storage yard operations

Major Benefits

Lower operating cost
Continuous 24×7 duty
Reduced fuel consumption
Cleaner work environment
Higher hydraulic efficiency
Minimal downtime
Reduced maintenance

Pedestal-Mounted Electric Excavator

For heavy-duty stationary operations requiring maximum stability and a large working radius, the excavator can be installed on a specially engineered steel pedestal or reinforced concrete foundation.

The undercarriage is removed or permanently locked, allowing the upper structure to rotate freely over a fixed operating area.

Advantages of Pedestal Mounting

Increased machine stability
Higher lifting capacity
Larger working radius
No undercarriage wear
Elimination of track maintenance
Reduced structural vibration
Improved operator visibility
Continuous operation
Lower maintenance costs
Extended equipment life

Fixed Boom Electric Material Handler

Where excavation is not required, the excavator can be converted into a dedicated material handling machine.

Instead of digging, it performs repetitive loading and unloading operations throughout the production cycle.

Typical tasks include:

Scrap loading
Coal transfer
Biomass feeding
Timber handling
Waste sorting
Ash removal
RDF handling
Finished product loading
Furnace charging
Conveyor feeding

Electric Scrap Handling Excavator

Steel plants and scrap recycling facilities demand continuous loading and sorting of ferrous and non-ferrous scrap.

Electric conversion provides:

Lower operating cost
Reduced heat generation
Continuous production
Cleaner work environment
Lower maintenance
Reduced fuel consumption

Suitable for handling:

HMS Scrap
Shredded Scrap
MS Scrap
Cast Iron
Pig Iron
Steel Billets
Steel Plates
Structural Scrap
Aluminum Scrap
Copper Scrap

Electric Coal Handling Excavator

Coal handling plants require continuous movement of large quantities of material.

Applications include:

Crusher feeding
Conveyor loading
Wagon unloading
Stockyard management
Blending
Hopper feeding

Benefits include:

Stable hydraulic power
Lower energy cost
Continuous operation
Reduced diesel consumption
Improved productivity

Electric Biomass Material Handler

Biomass industries rely on excavators for handling:

Wood Chips
Sawdust
Bagasse
Rice Husk
Mustard Husk
Cotton Stalk
Groundnut Shell
Napier Grass
Sugarcane Trash
Bamboo Chips
Corn Cobs
Palm Waste
Coconut Shell
RDF
Agro Residues

Electric operation provides cleaner handling with significantly lower operating costs, making it ideal for biomass pellet plants and renewable energy projects.

Electric Waste & RDF Handling Excavator

Waste processing facilities require continuous material movement for segregation, shredding, and feeding.

Applications include:

Municipal Solid Waste
RDF Plants
Waste-to-Energy Projects
Recycling Centers
Compost Plants
Plastic Recycling
Construction Waste
Industrial Waste

Electric conversion minimizes emissions and improves indoor working conditions.

Electric Port & Bulk Cargo Material Handler

Ports operate around the clock and demand reliable, energy-efficient equipment.

Applications include:

Ship Loading
Ship Unloading
Barge Loading
Barge Unloading
Container Yard Operations
Bulk Cargo Transfer
Fertilizer Handling
Coal Import
Iron Ore Handling
Grain Loading

Electric operation significantly reduces fuel costs for continuous dockside operations.
