Mobility and versatility for wheeled excavator

Hyundai says that its new wheeled excavator offers high mobility combined with versatility, allowing it to handle a wide range of duties. The compact radius HW150A CR is now available, following the launch of the larger HW170A CR, the HW150A CR.

The new Hyundai wheeled excavator can carry out a wide array of duties

The HW150A CR uses the same Stage V-compliant, 129kW Cummins B4.5 diesel engine as the HW140A, HW160A and the HW170A CR and requires no EGR. The engine drives a Bosch Rexoth load sensing hydraulic system and a fully hydrostatic, four-wheel drive powertrain. The load sensing system allows load independent flow control, which makes it easier for the operator to work boom, dipper arm, bucket and slew function simultaneously. Weight ranges from 16.9-17.2tonnes depending on specifications and equipment.

The HW150A CR features an automatic digging brake that locks the front axle oscillation and the service brake, allowing the operator to start work as soon as the machine stops travelling.

Customers can specify the lower chassis layout of the machine to suit operational requirements. The lower attachments, including dozer blade and front and rear outriggers, are interchangeable.

The HW150A CR has a revised front attachment design, with the dipper arm hydraulic cylinder reversed to provide increased protection of the ram. The machine can be delivered with a choice of monoboom or two-piece design, to suit the customer.

All A-Series excavators benefit from the latest Hyundai cab design, with improved steps for easy access. Despite its compact radius dimensions, the engine cover size has been reduced, to improve visibility to the rear.

    JCB has high hopes for its new Hydradig wheeled excavator, which is said to offer high versatility and stability, as well as visibility, mobility, manoeuvrability and serviceability. A key feature of the machine is the novel layout of its engine and fuel tank, mounted on the lower chassis member rather than on the rotating upperstructure. This helps provide a much better view from the newly-designed cab, aided by large glass panels, and allows the operator to see all four wheels. This radical design also lo

    At the BICES exhibition in Beijing, it was clear that the Chinese construction market has bounced back - Mike Woof writes. Demand for construction machines is now improving in China once more, with the backlog of unsold or nearly new secondhand units having been absorbed. This was apparent at the recent BICES construction machinery exhibition held in Beijing, where firms were more bullish than in previous years.

    Machine control technologies are revolutionising construction – Dan Gilkes writes Electronic control of engines, transmissions and hydraulic systems, primarily to reduce exhaust emissions and boost productivity, is also providing manufacturers with an opportunity to incorporate increasingly complex machine control into their equipment. This in turn has the potential to make the machinery more productive, further cutting fuel consumption as part of a virtuous operational circle.
