Travel Motor Replacement Cost Depends on More Than Just the Price Tag

When your excavator or tracked machine starts losing drive power, it often points to one critical issue—the travel motor is failing. Many users ask how much it costs to replace it. The answer isn’t just a number. It depends on multiple factors that directly affect your budget and machine uptime.

The most obvious factor is the machine model. Small machines like mini excavators may need motors costing between $800–$2,000. Mid-size to large excavators can require replacements ranging from $3,000–$6,000 or more. For mining equipment, pipeline machines, or drilling rigs, the price may exceed $10,000 due to high torque demands and heavy-duty design.

But price alone is not the full story. You need to consider downtime, installation cost, part compatibility, and long-term durability. A cheap motor that fails after a few hundred hours will cost more in the long run. Choosing a reliable manufacturer ensures that your investment pays off over time.

At Fulian Machinery, we specialize in producing travel motors built for long life. Our motors are engineered to meet OEM performance standards. Every motor is tested under full load. We provide options for excavators, loaders, dozers, and even oilfield vehicles and drilling equipment. Whether for construction machinery or petroleum systems, our units are known for strength, easy fit, and consistent torque output.

We also supply hydraulic pumps, final drives, and complete undercarriage parts. If you’re managing multiple machines—especially for mining, oilfield, or energy engineering—you need a supplier that delivers fast, understands complex applications, and keeps parts in stock.

With Fulian, there’s no need to search multiple vendors. We support global shipping, fast response, and one-on-one assistance. We help customers calculate the best replacement solution—balancing cost, performance, and delivery time.

If you want to avoid expensive downtime, the smart move is to talk to Fulian before the motor fails completely. We’ll help you compare options and ensure the right part arrives quickly.
