Confirm the exact model, intended application, cutting envelope, electrical requirements and included systems before comparing XCMG roadheader prices. A price for a bare machine is not directly comparable with an offer including conveyors, project-specific equipment and commissioning. The model name and the technical document behind the quotation should be clear first.
XCMG distinguishes roadheaders for mining from roadheaders for tunneling in its product catalogue. That distinction is a reason to request the appropriate machine specification, rather than treating every roadheader offer as the same equipment package.
What can an EBZ260 reference tell you?
XCMG's global EBZ260 page, checked on 12 October 2026, gives the following reference fields:
| Published field | EBZ260 reference |
|---|---|
| Cutting height | 5.10 m |
| Cutting width | 5.80 m |
| Cutter motor power | 260/200 kW |
| Electrical supply | AC 1140 V |
| Machine mass | 85,000 kg |
The dimensions and mass are metric conversions of the same source's millimeter and tonne entries. They are catalogue references, not measurements of a particular offered unit.
The power field lists two figures. Do not add them together, rename the result total installed power or assume that an unlabelled power number in another quotation describes the same field. Request the manufacturer's explanation of the rating and operating arrangement for the proposed configuration.
How should you check the application and cutting envelope?
The EBZ260 description names coal roadway, semi-coal rock, soft rock and tunnel-driving applications. That does not establish suitability for every rock condition or a guaranteed production rate on your project.
Provide the tunnel profile and relevant geological information to the team selecting the equipment. Ask for an assessment covering the required excavation profile and material conditions, rather than inferring suitability from cutter power alone.
Keep cutting dimensions separate from overall machine dimensions and delivery clearances. A maximum cutting height and width should not automatically be multiplied into a guaranteed usable section for every position or project.
Which systems need their own line in the offer?
Clarify the cutting equipment, loading and conveying arrangements, electrical equipment and any project-specific additions. XCMG's EBZ260 description discusses a second conveyor working with different downstream transport arrangements; a quotation should identify what is actually supplied.
Request the applicable electrical documentation and have the project's responsible specialists assess the available supply against the offered equipment. The reference voltage is an ordering detail, not an instruction for connecting the machine.
Ask which operating, maintenance and parts documents accompany the unit, and identify the responsibilities for commissioning and familiarization. These requirements help distinguish two offers that otherwise use the same short model description.
What should be confirmed before requesting a final price?
Request one configuration list covering the machine, included systems, delivery scope, documentation and proposed support. For used equipment, add the serial number, condition report and service records. Compare the same scope and obtain the actual commercial terms in writing.
Our XCMG XTR4/230 tunnel roadheader listing concerns a different model from the EBZ260 reference above. XCMG places this model in its tunneling category; do not transfer the EBZ260 table to it. Ask for the complete technical sheet for the specific XTR4/230 unit when making an enquiry.
