Bulldozers can be classified in many ways according to different classification standards.
Classification by walking system: Bulldozers can be divided into wheeled bulldozers and crawler bulldozers. Wheeled bulldozers have good mobility and are suitable for working in dispersed and light-loaded work areas, but the walking device has poor adhesion; crawler bulldozers are suitable for working in heavy-load and complex terrain work areas.
Classification by purpose: Bulldozers can be divided into ordinary and special types. Ordinary bulldozers are mainly used for clearing land, building embankments, backfilling foundation pits, etc.; special bulldozers are designed according to specific needs, such as clearing snow and leveling the site.
Classification by operation method: Bulldozers can be divided into cable bulldozers and hydraulic bulldozers. Cable bulldozers are operated by cables, while hydraulic bulldozers are operated by hydraulic systems.
Classification by transmission method: Bulldozers can be divided into mechanical transmission, hydromechanical transmission, full hydraulic transmission and electric transmission. Mechanical transmission uses a traditional mechanical transmission system, hydromechanical transmission combines hydraulic and mechanical transmission, full hydraulic transmission relies entirely on hydraulic systems, and electric transmission uses electric drive.
Classification by power level: Bulldozers can be divided into ultra-small, small, medium, large and extra-large. This classification is based on the power level of the engine and is suitable for engineering projects of different sizes and needs.
Classification by bulldozer blade installation method: Bulldozers can be divided into fixed and rotary types. The bulldozer blade of a fixed bulldozer is fixed, while the bulldozer blade of a rotary bulldozer can rotate to adapt to different operating requirements
