JCB introduces compact telehandler that meets emission regulations
JCB is expanding its telehandler line-up with the addition of the compact 525-60 at Conexpo. According to the firm, the 525-60 offers full-size telehandler performance in a compact chassis. Maximum lift height is 6m and its load capacity is 2.5 tonnes, while the 525-60 is just 1.8m wide and 1.91m tall. This allows it to be operated in sites with limited space. The 525-60 Hi-Viz replaces the rear-engined 524-50, 527-55 and the 520-50 models, and features a side-mounted engine design. This permits a low boom

255 JCB is expanding its telehandler line-up with the addition of the compact 525-60 at Conexpo. According to the firm, the 525-60 offers full-size telehandler performance in a compact chassis. Maximum lift height is 6m and its load capacity is 2.5 tonnes, while the 525-60 is just 1.8m wide and 1.91m tall. This allows it to be operated in sites with limited space. The 525-60 Hi-Viz replaces the rear-engined 524-50, 527-55 and the 520-50 models, and features a side-mounted engine design. This permits a low boom pivot point for maximum stability and increased visibility to the rear and across the boom. Power comes from a new Tier 4 Final, 2.5litre, JCB Diesel by 2278 Kohler, delivering 55kW. As with other JCB engines, there is no diesel particulate filter or SCR system but the engine still meets the Tier 4 Final emissions regulations. A simple to operate two-stage hydrostatic transmission offers travel speeds of up to 25km/h while the short wheelbase makes the 525-60 manoeuvrable. Customers can choose between JCB’s Q-fit carriage or a skid steer compatible attachment interface for ultimate versatility and fleet acceptance. All boom functions are controlled by a single servo lever joystick, with proportional control of the two-stage boom extension and the machine is available with a choice of canopy or fully glazed cab.The machine can be supplied with JCB’s LiveLink telematic monitoring system for maximum fleet visibility and maintenance control, while options include road lights and screen guards.%$Linker: 2Asset<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?><dictionary />2128020oLinkExternalwww.JCB.comJCB webfalse/EasySiteWeb/GatewayLink.aspx?alId=12802falsefalse%>
Doosan Infracore’s engine business group used Conexpo to launch a new range of compact diesel engines that meet Tier 4 Final emissions legislation and avoid using a diesel particulate filter (DPF).
Called the D18, D24 and D34, the three-model range spans an output range of 20-90kW and offers engine capacities of 1.8, 2.4 and 3.4litres as it targets OEM skid steer loader, compact excavator, air compressor and generator businesses.
The non-DPF solution means the two smaller models need only a diesel oxidati
Innovative emissions control technology is a key feature of the latest diesel from John Deere Power Systems (JDPS). These engines range in capacity from 2.9-13.5litres and meet the Tier 4 Final/Stage IV emissions requirements. The firm says that extensive testing shows the diesels are responsive, reliable and have low running costs. The company has continued with developing its Integrated Emissions Control system to meet the emissions targets, with the technology including various combinations of aftertreat

The Kohler/Lombardini group will use Bauma to update its range of air-cooled single cylinder diesel engines, unveiling the new 8kW KD15-440 engine which the manufacturer says will strengthen and improve the current 15LD series - elevating it to the top of the class within its power range. The KD15-440 is an air-cooled single cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 441cc and an air filter that can offer, Lombardini claims, an operating life five times greater than the current version via its new high-e
