As part of its long-term business commitment within Europe, Japanese manufacturer 7047 Kobelco Construction Machinery has introduced three new excavators to market. The new Japanese-built SK260LC-9, SK350LC-9 and SK500LC-9 are the second wave of machines released this year by Kobelco Construction Machinery Europe (KCME) and further extends its range of specialist earthmoving and construction excavators.

The SK260LC-9, SK350LC-9 and SK500LC-9 models are said to boast high performance and state-of-the-art efficiency from proven, reliable technology.

With turbo-charged and greatly enhanced energy-efficient Hino engines, the three large-capacity machines are said to deliver greater productivity for each litre of fuel used. By employing the latest engine management technology an 88% reduction in exhaust particulate matters is achieved, “without loss in work performance.”

The machines offer an ergonomic cab design with large working space and intuitive, one-touch controls.

“The introduction of three further machines to an already impressive line-up underlines our commitment to providing Europe with the best technology and expertise in excavator manufacture and operation,” says KCME product marketing manager, Peter Stuijt.

“Our use of modern technology in all aspects of machine manufacture sits alongside 80 years of experience to ensure that all our machines meet and exceed the demands of the industry and operators and increase productivity. The growing Kobelco range of products in Europe mirrors the demand of specific machines for specific roles within earthmoving and construction industries.”
