Mecalac 10MCR launched at INTERMAT

Following the success of its 8MCR high-speed compact excavator, Mecalac has developed a larger, heavier model, called the 10MCR. Like the smaller machine introduced in 2009, this new model combines the speed and manoeuvrability of a skid steer loader with the functionality of a midi excavator. Weighing in at nine tones and using a 75kW turbocharged diesel engine, the new model retains Mecalac’s MCR concept and uses a triangular track frame profile, which affords fast travel speeds in both directions usin

Mecalac 10MCR combines excavator, loader, tool carrier and materials handler in one machine
Following the success of its 8MCR high-speed compact excavator, 2441 Mecalac Group has developed a larger, heavier model, called the 10MCR.

Like the smaller machine introduced in 2009, this new model combines the speed and manoeuvrability of a skid steer loader with the functionality of a midi excavator.

Weighing in at nine tones and using a 75kW turbocharged diesel engine, the new model retains Mecalac’s MCR concept and uses a triangular track frame profile, which affords fast travel speeds in both directions using a closed-circuit hydrostatic transmission called Senso-drive. This feature allows the machine to operate at speeds of up to 10km/hr in both directions.

In the cab, Mecalac has equipped the 10MCR with a mode switch that enables easy change over from skid-steer loader controls to that of tracked excavator format.

As a result, the firm claims it is a combination of four machines - excavator, loader, tool carrier and materials handler, all in one package.
