  • 2025 NA Crawler Production

    Sign-up for DataPoint Reports

    3,000 units is the estimate by Power Systems Research of the number of Crawlers expected to be produced in the U.S. in 2025.

    There are two types of Crawlers: a Crawler Excavator and a Crawler Loader.

    A Crawler Excavator is a self-propelled crawler mounted on heavy equipment that is designed to dig or move large objects and is classified by its mode of locomotion. The main function of a Crawler Excavator is to dig holes or trenches for construction related activities.

    A Crawler Loader is a piece of mobile construction equipment used to load materials; it’s used primarily in tough, off-road terrain. It’s similar to a wheel loader, except it has treads instead of wheels.

  • 2025 NA Snowblowers Production

    Download PDF

    293,500 units is the estimate by Power Systems Research of the number of Snowblowers expected to be produced in the United States in 2025.

    A Snow Blower or Snow Thrower is a machine for removing snow from an area such as a driveway, sidewalk, roadway, railroad track, ice rink, or runway. It can use either electric power (line power or battery), or a gasoline or diesel engine to throw snow to another location or into a truck to be hauled away.

    Snow blowers range from very small units, capable of removing only a few inches (a few more cm) of light snow in an 18 to 20 in (457 to 508 mm) path, to the very large units, mounted on heavy-duty winter service vehicles and capable of moving 20-foot (6.10 m) wide swaths of heavy snow up to 6 feet (1.83 m) deep.

  • 2025 NA Dumpers/Tenders Production

    Download PDF

    1,200 units is the estimate by Power Systems Research of the number of Dumpers/Tenders expected to be produced in North America in 2025.

    Dumpers/Tenders are vehicles designed for carrying bulk material, often on building sites. Dumpers are distinguished from dump trucks by configuration: a dumper is usually an open 4-wheeled vehicle with the load skip in front of the driver, while a dump truck has its cab in front of the load.

    Utility style models are versatile and are extremely popular with homeowners.  Dumper/Tenders, commonly referred to as the Power Buggy, are sought after pieces of equipment, much faster than a conventional wheelbarrow and can accelerate job site related activities.
