Wheel loaders

A wheel loader (also called shovel or shovel loader) is a multifunctional piece of equipment that can be used for various types of work on paved or compacted surfaces, such as:

  • load-and-carry
  • loading lorries
  • processing sand
  • steel plate handling
  • maintenance of steel plate roads

Various (exchangeable) attachments are used for this.

Martens en Van Oord has wheel loaders weighing between 20 and 35 tonnes. A number of machines also have a 3D machine operating system.
