๐ Mascus Equipment Scraper
๐ Export the world's used machinery market in seconds. 516,000+ live listings, 46 fields per machine, dealer phone and email included.
Mascus is the marketplace where European and global dealers park their used fleet: 264,526 construction machines, 104,025 trucks and trailers, 84,762 farm machines, 26,672 forklifts, 25,779 forestry units and 10,746 grounds care machines, all live at the moment this page was written. This Actor turns any Mascus search into a clean table: the machine, what it costs, how many hours or kilometres it has done, where it stands, and exactly who is selling it.
Every row is built from the listing page itself, not from the search card. That is why you get the seller's phone number and email address, the serial or VIN, the internal stock number, GPS coordinates, the full seller description and all 20 to 30 photos, on top of the make, model, year, hours, price and condition. Coverage spans 111 categories in 6 equipment areas and 104 seller countries, priced in any of 19 currencies.
| ๐ฏ Target Audience | ๐ก Primary Use Cases |
|---|---|
| Equipment dealers and traders | Track competitor stock, price position and days on market |
| Auction houses and remarketers | Build comparable-sales tables before a sale |
| Fleet and rental managers | Find replacement units by hours, year and country |
| Lenders, insurers and appraisers | Residual value models from real asking prices |
| Machinery OEMs and importers | Watch used-market supply for your own brand |
| Lead generation teams | 104 countries of dealer names, phones and emails |
| Market researchers and analysts | Cross-border price spreads in a single currency |
๐ What the Mascus Equipment Scraper does
It takes a Mascus search, walks it page by page, opens every machine, and writes one row per listing.
- Any search is a source. Paste category or search URLs, type keywords, or pick from the 111 verified categories. All three can run in the same job.
- Filters that were tested against the live site. Seller country (104 of them), condition, sort order, and a "listed in the last N days" window. Nothing in the schema is a guess.
- 43 country sites, 19 currencies. Pick the market and the same inventory comes back priced in SEK, EUR, USD, PLN, BRL, JPY and 13 more, with category and condition labels in that market's language.
- Prices in three shapes. The seller's own currency, the EUR equivalent Mascus computes, and your chosen market currency, so a Danish crawler and a Texan one land in the same comparison.
- Dealer contact on every row. Company, city, country, phone, email, website, years on Mascus and the dealer's Mascus page.
- Auction, rental and Marketplace-E listings are labelled, not silently mixed into the used stock.
๐ก Why it matters: the search card on Mascus shows about a dozen values. The listing page holds three times as many. This Actor reads the listing page for every single row, so the export is the same depth a buyer would get by clicking through, at a few hundred machines a minute.

Three real records from a live run:
โจ Why choose this Actor
- It opens the machine, not just the card. Serial number, GPS, seller email and the full description exist only on the listing page, and every row here has been through it.
- Honest about the ceiling. Mascus serves at most 10,000 machines per search. The Actor says so in the log, tells you the true match count, and stops instead of quietly looping the first page forever.
- Every knob was tested. Filters that Mascus ignores were left out of the schema on purpose. There is no input here that does nothing.
- 104 seller countries and 19 currencies from one job, including a comma-free way to compare a Polish loader with a Canadian one.
- No proxy needed. The source is open, so runs are fast and cheap, and the proxy toggle is there only for very large jobs.
- Sentinels, not blanks.
Not DisclosedandN/Amean something different from a parser failure, and theerrorcolumn stays out of the way of your data.

๐ How to use
- Create a free Apify account. New accounts get $5 of free credit, enough to try this Actor straight away: sign up here.
- Open the Actor and leave the default search, or paste your own Mascus category or search URL.
- Or skip URLs entirely. Type keywords like
volvo ec220, or pick categories such asConstruction > Excavatorsfrom the dropdown. - Narrow it down. Choose seller countries, a condition, a sort order, or restrict to machines listed in the last few days.
- Choose your market. The market sets the currency and the language of the category and condition labels.
- Set how many machines you want and start the run.
- Download the result as CSV, Excel, JSON or XML, or pull it from the dataset API into your own system.
Tip: to go past the 10,000-machine ceiling of a single search, run the same search twice with opposite sort orders, or split it by seller country.
๐ผ Business use cases
Price and stock intelligence for dealers
Pull every 2015 to 2020 crawler excavator in Germany, the Netherlands and Poland once a week and you have a live picture of what the competition is asking, how long units sit, and where the supply is thin. publishedAt plus updatedAt tells you which machines have been re-priced.
Comparable sales for appraisals and lending
Residual value models need real asking prices with hours attached. priceEur puts every market on one scale, hours and year give you the axes, and serialNumber lets you follow one physical machine as it moves between dealers and countries.
Sourcing and lead generation
sellerName, sellerPhone, sellerEmail, sellerCity and sellerCountry come out of the listing page, so a search for a specific model becomes a call list of every dealer holding one. sellerYearsOnMascus is a rough proxy for how established the dealer is.
Cross-border arbitrage
The same model often carries a very different price in Sweden and Spain. Run one category with countries set to both, sort by price, and the spread is a column in your spreadsheet rather than a hunch.
๐ Automating Mascus Equipment Scraper
- Make and Zapier: trigger on run finish and push new machines into a CRM, a Slack channel or a Google Sheet.
- Slack: post an alert whenever a machine under a certain price or hour count appears in your watched category.
- Airbyte and Fivetran: treat the dataset as a source and land it in BigQuery, Snowflake or Postgres.
- GitHub Actions: schedule a nightly run and commit the CSV so you have a versioned price history.
- Google Drive and Sheets: write each run to a dated sheet and let your team pivot it without touching the API.
- Webhooks: call your own endpoint the moment a run finishes, with the dataset ID in the payload.
๐ Beyond business use cases
- Research: used-equipment prices are a clean signal for construction and agricultural investment cycles across Europe.
- Personal: a farmer looking for a specific tractor across five countries can watch the whole market from one sheet.
- Non-profit: aid and development organisations sourcing machinery can compare landed cost across regions before committing.
- Experimentation: the description text plus the photo set is a rich, freely available dataset for image and text models about industrial machinery.
๐ค Ask an AI assistant about this scraper
Paste this into ChatGPT, Claude or any assistant that can browse:
I want to analyse the used heavy equipment market. Using the Apify Actor
parseforge/mascus-equipment-scraper, explain how I would collect every excavator listed in Germany and the Netherlands in the last 30 days, and which fields I should use to compare asking prices across the two countries.
โ Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a Mascus account or an API key?
No. The Actor reads the same public pages a logged-out visitor sees.
How many machines can I get from one search?
Up to 10,000. Mascus serves 40 machines per page and stops at page 250, after which it quietly replays page 1. The Actor detects that and stops rather than delivering duplicates.
How do I collect more than 10,000?
Split the search. Filter by seller country, choose a narrower category, or run the same search twice with opposite sort orders. Each variant gets its own 10,000-machine budget.
Why is condition often "Not Disclosed"?
Because most sellers leave that field blank on Mascus. Roughly 3% of machines in a typical category carry a declared condition. When it exists you get it verbatim, including values like Reconditioned, Demo, Damaged and Parts Only.
Why do some machines have no price?
Mascus lets sellers publish "price on request". Those rows come back as Not Disclosed across all price columns rather than as a misleading zero.
What does the market setting actually change?
Three things, all verified: the currency prices are converted into, the language of the category and condition labels, and which country's machines Mascus promotes to the top of the results. It does not change how many machines exist.
Can I get machines from a specific dealer?
Not by pasting a dealer page. Mascus loads dealer inventory in the browser, so those pages carry no data for an HTTP scraper. Search for the dealer's brands and filter the output on sellerName instead.
Does it cover trucks and farm machinery, or only construction?
All six Mascus areas: construction, trucks and transport, agriculture, material handling, forestry and grounds care. That is 111 categories in total, all selectable from the dropdown.
Is mileageKm always filled in?
Only for road vehicles. Excavators and forklifts report hours instead, and the column they do not use comes back as Not Disclosed.
How fresh is the data?
It is read live at run time. publishedAt is when the seller posted the ad and updatedAt is when they last edited it, so you can filter to genuinely new stock.
Do I need a proxy?
No. Mascus is open to plain HTTP requests, so the proxy toggle is off by default. Turn it on only if you are running very large jobs and start to see failures.
What happens if a listing page fails to load?
It is retried three times, then reported as a row containing only an error message. Those rows are never charged.
Can I export to Excel?
Yes. CSV, Excel, JSON and XML are all one click away from the dataset, and the API serves the same data to your own code.
๐ Integrate with any app
The dataset is available over the Apify API the second a run finishes, so anything that speaks HTTP can consume it. Use the official JavaScript or Python clients, call the REST endpoints directly, subscribe to a webhook, or connect through Make, Zapier, n8n, Airbyte or the Apify MCP server if your tooling is AI-native.
