Excavator rock saw has huge advantages in sawing natural stone and reinforced concrete, which have been felt in a variety of application cases. In fact, the application scenarios of excavator rock saws are far more than these. As long as there is a need for fast cutting, excavator rock saws can be used for operations. The New Zealand basement expansion project is a good example.
A few years ago, a New Zealand client approached Yichen company and wanted to purchase equipment to expand his basement. He bought the YS-05SS rock saw, which is also named as demolition concrete saw and installed it on a miniature (800kg) excavator for work. The basement working condition is 160MPA limestone, and the total construction height reaches 1.6 meters. The rock saw cuts the wall into small squares. After the sawing is completed, the wall is beaten with a hammer to expand the basement step by step. Such a construction method can greatly reduce vibration and ensure the safety of the main body of the house and construction safety. The project was very successful, and this construction method also provided new ideas for the application of rock saws.

In fact, this project is also another application of the rock saw and breaker combination. First cut by a rock saw, and then hammered by a breaker, it is very simple to remove walls, pavements, and even mountains made of basalt and limestone. This construction method can perfectly replace traditional methods such as blasting, and is the first choice for modern construction.
