Loader and Dozer

What is a Track Loader?

A track loader, also known as a crawler loader, is a heavy machine that combines the functions of a tractor and a loader. With tracks, a track loader has better traction and stability, especially on soft ground or uneven terrain, compared to a skid steer. It’s often the tool of choice when self loading and good grading is needed.

Attachments like a fork, winch, or a six way blade can further expand its capabilities. Unlike a wheel loader the track loader has tracks.

 

What is a Dozer?

A dozer, or bulldozer, is a piece of equipment used for pushing dirt. The key component is its  blade, a large metal plate on the front used to move dirt, clear land and level surfaces. Bulldozers come in different sizes which can be summarized as follows:

Some machines also have a winch useful for pulling heavy objects or assisting with logging operations. Like the loader, they have tracks that provide great traction especially on tough terrain.
