Issuing Authority: SEA LION International Trade Co., Ltd.
1. CORE APPLICATION & OPERATIONAL VALUE
The PC01 excavator is engineered for high-intensity, continuous-cycle operations in mining overburden removal, bulk material logistics (stockyard management), and large-scale civil construction (foundation/earthmoving). Its 38.5-ton operational weight, 1.8 m³ standard bucket capacity, and 220 kW (295 HP) Tier 4 Final/Stage V compliant engine deliver optimal productivity in abrasive, high-dust environments. Field data from 12,000+ operational hours across 14 sites confirms:
| Performance Metric | PC01 Specification | Industry Avg. (35-40t Class) | Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cycle Time (Load & Swing 90°) | 18.2 sec | 21.5 sec | 15.3% faster |
| Fuel Consumption (L/hr) | 28.7 | 33.1 | 13.3% lower |
| Undercarriage Life (hrs) | 12,500 | 9,800 | 27.6% longer |
This model excels in low-visibility, high-abrasion conditions common in iron ore mining (Africa), frozen clay excavation (Russia), and tropical laterite soil handling (Southeast Asia), reducing downtime by 22% versus competitors in comparable duty cycles.
2. MARKET PREFERENCE: AFRICA, RUSSIA, SOUTHEAST ASIA
The PC01 dominates target markets due to region-specific engineering adaptations validated under extreme operational stress:

Shipping & Logistics Solutions
Industrial Specification Report 2026
Prepared for Fleet Managers & Construction Companies
Subject: Export Logistics Solutions for ‘PC01 Excavator’ from China
1. Overview
This report evaluates three primary maritime transport methods for the export of heavy construction equipment—the PC01 Excavator—from manufacturing hubs in China (e.g., Shanghai, Qingdao, Ningbo) to global project sites. The analysis compares RO-RO (Roll-on/Roll-off), Bulk Cargo, and Flat Rack (Containerized) shipping in terms of cost, transit time, equipment integrity, and corrosion protection. Special emphasis is placed on wax-based anti-corrosion treatment to mitigate seawater exposure during ocean transit.
The PC01 Excavator (approx. dimensions: 9.8 m L × 3.2 m W × 3.5 m H; weight: 28,500 kg) presents unique logistical challenges due to its non-standard dimensions, weight, and susceptibility to marine environmental degradation.
2. Shipping Method Comparison
| Parameter | RO-RO Shipping | Bulk Cargo Shipping | Flat Rack Container Shipping |
|---|---|---|---|
| Loading Mechanism | Self-propelled or towed onboard | Crane-lifted into hold | Crane-lifted onto open-top flat racks |
| Cargo Protection | Moderate (exposed decks) | Low (unprotected in hold) | High (secured, partially covered) |
| Transit Time | 25–35 days (direct routes) | 30–45 days | 30–40 days |
| Port Flexibility | High (major RO-RO terminals only) | Medium (bulk-handling ports) | High (standard container ports) |
| Cost (USD/unit) | $4,800 – $6,200 | $3,900 – $5,100 | $6,500 – $8,000 |
| Damage Risk | Medium (vibration, moisture) | High (shifting, humidity) | Low (strapped, lashed, monitored) |
| Customs Clearance | Fast (vehicle classification) | Slower (bulk inspection) | Standard container processing |
| Best For | Operational units, short-term deployment | Low-cost, non-urgent shipments | High-value, corrosion-sensitive units |
3. Corrosion Protection: Wax Spraying Protocol
Marine environments expose metal surfaces to salt-laden air and condensation, accelerating oxidation. To preserve the PC01 Excavator’s structural and hydraulic integrity during transit, wax-based anti-corrosion spraying is strongly recommended.
Wax Spraying Specifications:
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Product Type | Solvent-based, hydrophobic wax emulsion |
| Application Method | High-pressure spray (minimum 30 psi) |
| Coverage Areas | Undercarriage, boom, dipper, track links, joints, hydraulic cylinders |
| Film Thickness | 25–50 µm (uniform coat) |
| Curing Time | 4–6 hours (ambient 25°C) |
| Salt Spray Resistance | ASTM B117: >500 hours (no red rust) |
| Removal | Biodegradable citrus-based solvent or steam |
Note: Wax treatment must be applied within 48 hours of final assembly and prior to loading. Reapplication is advised if storage exceeds 14 days pre-shipment.
4. Method-Specific Recommendations
RO-RO Shipping
- Pros: Fast loading/unloading; ideal for operational units.
- Cons: High exposure to salt spray; limited lashing options.
- Protection Add-On: Mandatory wax spray + breathable desiccant bags in cab and engine compartment.
Bulk Cargo Shipping
- Pros: Lowest cost; suitable for disassembled units.
- Cons: High risk of moisture ingress; potential for impact damage.
- Protection Add-On: Full wax treatment + VCI (Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor) wrapping of critical components.
Flat Rack Shipping
- Pros: Maximum control over securing and weather shielding; compatible with ISO standards.
- Cons: Higher cost; requires crane infrastructure.
- Protection Add-On: Wax spray + tarpaulin overwrap with ventilation flaps; silicone gel packs in control boxes.
5. Operational Guidelines for Fleet Managers
- Pre-shipment Inspection: Verify all fluids are sealed and undercarriage is cleaned of debris.
- Battery Handling: Remove and ship separately in insulated containers.
- Documentation: Include wax treatment certification in export dossiers for customs and insurance.
- Port Coordination: Confirm receiving port capabilities (e.g., heavy-lift cranes, RO-RO ramps).
- Post-Arrival Protocol: Schedule immediate wax removal and functional diagnostics before deployment.
6. Conclusion
For PC01 Excavator exports from China, Flat Rack shipping with wax-based corrosion protection offers the optimal balance of equipment safety, regulatory compliance, and long-term asset preservation—particularly for high-value or remote-site deployments. While RO-RO and Bulk Cargo present cost advantages, they require enhanced mitigation strategies to offset environmental risks. SEA LION International recommends wax spraying as a non-negotiable step in all maritime export workflows for heavy machinery.
