A Brief History of Construction Machinery

Humans have a long history of using lifting tools instead of physical labor. According to historical records, around 1600 BC, China had already used jujus and pulleys. The former is a heavy lever, while the latter is the prototype of a hand cranked winch. In ancient Egypt and Rome, lifting tools were also widely used. The development of modern construction machinery began with the invention of the steam engine. In the early 19th century, Europe saw the emergence of steam engine driven excavators, rollers, cranes, and so on. Subsequently, due to the invention of internal combustion engines and electric motors, construction machinery experienced rapid development. After World War II, the development was even more rapid. Its variety, quantity, and quality directly affect the development of a country's production and construction, so all countries attach great importance to it.
Nowadays, wireless control functions can be seen on various construction machinery.
