Kobelco’s powerful new short tailswing excavator offers versatility

Versatility is the key feature of Kobelco’s new SK380SRLC-7 excavator, with its short tailswing design allowing operation in restricted space areas. Operating weight varies from 36.8-39.4tonnes depending on the specification and the machine is powered by an Isuzu diesel delivering 210kW that meets Tier 4 Final/Stage V emissions requirements.

Capable of handling a wide range of attachments, the machine is suited to jobs in highway operations due to its short tailswing design. The standard bucket has a capacity of 1.2m3, though it can use a wide array to suit different application needs. A short boom of 2.4m is offered while the standard boom measures 3.1m.
