The 50t class excavator has been developed for heavy-duty applications and marks a major expansion of the company鈥檚 Heavyline range.
It will be joined by its 40t class stablemate, the new 420X crawler excavator
Building on the success of the JCB 370X, it has been designed to handle the most arduous applications, from mass excavation and aggregate extraction to demolition and crusher loading.
The excavators will be joined by equipment from across JCB's range. The manufacturer will showcase its expanding compaction equipment portfolio with the new VM138D single drum soil compactor, while the 9T Dual Drive site dumper will demonstrate the company鈥檚 latest advances in site dumper productivity, visibility and site safety. Using similar technology to JCB鈥檚 successful Dual Drive backhoe loader, the system allows the operator to rotate the seat and controls, to always be facing in the desired direction of travel.
The line-up of brand new machines is completed with a preview of JCB鈥檚 new 715 articulated dump truck. The compact two-axle dump truck delivers a 12,750kg payload and has been engineered to offer high productivity and fast cycle times in off-road hauling applications.
