EQUIPMENT SHOWCASE 2024 THE

Last month, I attended my first American Rental Association (ARA) Show, held in New Orleans. Among many trends noticed was a focus on the operator focus, listening to the customer and equipment flexibility. When colleagues shared that the show was a “buying show,” I wasn’t sure what to expect. Attendees and exhibitors signing contracts in the booth wasn’t the first thing I thought I’d see, but I saw that and more.

Because it is a selling show, SANY had dealers in the booth to help customers and make sales. At the time that we talked with the SANY team, they already had two dozen quotes. In the booth, the team featured equipment popular to the rental market, and 99% of the machines were available on dealers’ lots.

At the John Deere booth, the focus was mainly on earthmoving equipment. What excited the team most was being back at the show and feeling that energy was back. One machine featured was the 85-P Excavator, which is popular in the rental market. SANY, John Deere and many others indicated that design factors and changes to equipment were made after listening to the needs of their customers.

Standard features include a multifunction joystick enabling operators to control all machine functions with their hands only; a vertical lift path that allows the boom to raise the bucket straight up to full height, less spillage and lift height, and two-speed travel enabling movement around the jobsite.

Takeuchi TB350R Excavator

Takeuchi has expanded its TB300 Series excavator product line with the new TB350R short tail swing compact excavator, the first short tail swing model in the manufacturer’s 5-ton class. The TB350R has a rear swing overhang of just 2.95-in., helping minimize rear-swing impacts. The TB350R weighs 10,980 lbs. in canopy configuration and 11,235 lbs. when equipped with a cab.

It is powered by a Kubota V2607-CRE5B diesel engine that is U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final compliant and delivers 41.7 net hp (ISO 9249 and SAE1349) and more than 130.2 ft.-lbs. of torque.

A four-pump hydraulic system delivers smooth, harmonized control of the work equipment. The TB350R provides a bucket breakout force of 10,431 lbs., a traction force of 12,320 lbs. and a maximum dig depth of 11 ft., 8.8 in.

KATO IC100-5 Crawler Carrier

Japanese-made and U.S. customized and distributed, the IC100-5 is versatile and powerful, designed for a wide range of construction applications. It features a 268hp Cummins diesel engine to power through heavy-duty tasks, and a joystick for smooth operation and easy maneuverability in tight spaces.

This 12-ton machine has a high-capacity payload of 22,000 lbs. and a low center of gravity. It is only 102 in. wide, which means it doesn’t require a wide-load permit.

This crawler carrier also comes with an optional hydraulic winch. The IC100-5 is designed with both operator safety and comfort in mind. It features a spacious cab and ergonomic controls, which provides maximum visibility and ease-of-use for the operator. The carrier is also equipped with a number of safety features, including multiple camera angles and a ROPS-compliant cabin.

Mecalac AX1000 Articulated Loader

Mecalac’s AX1000 articulated loader features a monoboom, a single boom that offers rigidity and strength, resisting the twisting that can occur with the traditional two-arm setup. Combining large, tinted windows with the monoboom design, the AX1000 eliminates the two loader arms obstructing the operator’s view and allows clear visibility to the left and right in addition to straight ahead. This machine has a standard bucket volume of 1.3 cu. yd. (1 cubic meter) plus a 75-hp engine. The machine has a lift capacity of 9,038 lbs. (4,100 kg). Further, the AX1000 maintains lifting power from the ground to its highest point.

CASE CX15EV, CX25EV Mini Excavators

CASE Construction Equipment launched two electrified mini excavators and a new diesel-powered mini excavator and more to come.

Anchoring the new mini excavator launch for CASE is the all-new electrified machines, the CX15EV and the CX25EV. The CX15EV is a 3,186-lb. mini excavator powered by a 21-hp/16-kW electric motor. The CX25EV is a 4,828-lb. mini excavator with a 27-hp/20-kW electric motor.

The lithium-ion battery featured in both machines is charged either by the 110-V/220-V on-board charger, or with an external rapid charger. CASE also launched a new diesel-powered, true zero tailswing mini excavator: the CX42D. This is the first model of the new CASE D Series and complements the existing C Series product line, giving CASE a broader reach into core weight classes that are in high industry demand.

Link-Belt 750 X4 Excavator

Greater digging power and increased lift capacities are the result of the Spool Stroke Control system, which reduces pressure loss and distributes hydraulic oil more smoothly. Pilot pressure sensors detect the type of work being done, such as digging or leveling and then relays that data to proportional solenoid valves that quickly determine where optimal hydraulic pressures should be directed for that operation.

Two electronically controlled Kawasaki variable-displacement axial-piston pumps and one Kawasaki gear pump assure that hydraulic power is delivered precisely when and where it’s needed. At the same time, hydraulic flows in noncritical areas of the system are reduced.

The result is better breakout force, more lifting strength and faster machine response. The X4 Series features PA-certified Final Tier 4 engines from Isuzu with a balance between power, productivity and fuel efficiency.

Kubota SVL75-3 CTL

Kubota’s new SVL75-3 is powered by a 74.3-hp Kubota engine and features a rated operating capacity of 2,490 lbs. at 35% or 3,557 lbs. at 50%. The machine generates 6,191 lbs. of breakout force and has a hinge pin height of 122.7 in.

The SVL75-3’s hydraulic system is equipped with an Advanced Multifunction Valve that helps with the movement of all hydraulic functions when operated simultaneously, allowing operators to run the auxiliary hydraulics, bucket and loader arm functions at the same time.

Travel features include two-speed travel and the Advanced Auto Downshift system from Kubota compact excavators that automatically downshifts from high to low gear while making turns, providing the maximum amount of torque needed when exiting a turn.

Operators also have the ability to change their travel response sensitivity with the choice of three track response settings: mild, normal and quick.

Liebherr Mid-Sized Wheel Loaders

The three models, L 526, L 538 and L 546, in the latest Generation 8 have bucket sizes between 2.2 m³ and 3.0 m³ in the standard version and are characterized by an increase in performance compared to the previous generation.

The new L 526 has around 20% more engine power and more than 20% higher breakout forces than its predecessor. The newly-designed lift arm ensures maximum breakout, holding and lowering forces. It has optimized z-bar kinematics and improved working hydraulics.

Increases in engine power and tipping loads prepare the wheel loaders for demanding operations in different sectors, such as excavation, recycling or log handling.

Available in Europe, the L 538 and L 546 models also have performance increases in various areas: for example, with the optimized travel drive, providing increased traction to ensure that the new wheel loaders accelerate dynamically in everyday work, and can penetrate powerfully into all materials.

RX-405 Cold Planer

Minnich Single Gang Barrier Wall Drill

Minnich Manufacturing’s Single Gang Barrier Wall Drill is a self-propelled, pneumatic drill designed to optimize safety during the process of securing concrete barrier walls. The Single Gang Barrier Wall Drill eliminates the time of making manual adjustments to align multiple drill hole measurements. There is no need to line up drill holes. Simply align the drill steel through the premolded opening in the barrier wall, penetrate the sub-base, drop in the steel pin anchor and move to the next securing point. This solution is designed for roadway construction and patching projects requiring concrete barrier wall protection.

FAE RPL/EX Fixed Tooth Road Planer

FAE’s RPL/EX road planer for excavators is based on cold planer technology. With cold planer technology, the road’s surface is scraped and cut by the impact of special teeth attached to the rotor.

The RPL/EX has a specially designed layout to reduce vibration. With these features, the RPL/EX can be used to prepare roads for resurfacing or to support excavation operations. The RPL/EX is compatible with excavators from 8 tons to 14 tons, can mill up to 5.3 in. deep and has a working width of 18 in.

The head comes standard with technological and structural features. These include an adjustable hydraulic base that allows operators to manage the machine’s working depth, a wide-stroke self-leveling system that allows them to keep the head properly aligned while in operation and an adjustable right skid that allows operators to keep the head aligned in overlaps. It also has teeth specifically for use on asphalt and concrete road surfaces.

Wirtgen WRC 240(i) Rock Crusher

The WRC 240(i) from Wirtgen expands the portfolio of wheeled soil stabilizers designed for the processing of stony ground. This machine breaks coarse rocks in-situ, as found in hand-packed pavement layers (e.g. Telford bases) or stony soils and produces a homogeneous mix in a continuous process. A working width of 2,320 mm and a working depth of up to 510 mm enables an output of up to 600 tons per hour.

In addition to crushing rocks and stones with an edge length of up to 300 mm and strength up to 200 MPa, the machine can add cement and water in the same pass, for instance in the preparation of base layers. The cement is pre-spread with a binding agent spreader and the water required is sprayed into the mixing chamber by the machine’s Varioinjection bar. It can also be used for soil stabilization.

For this application, prespread binding agents, such as lime or cement, are mixed into the existing soil with insufficient bearing capacity, which is transformed in-situ into a high-grade construction material and deposited behind the machine.

The versatile RX-405 milling machine is ideal for contractors who need a smaller cold planer that offers versatility and flexibility. Contractors of all sizes benefit from a powerful machine that can tackle sizerestrictive jobsites like trenches, utility work and parking lots.

• Simplified controls are easily operated from either side of the platform

• Multifunction joystick controls are easy to understand

• Expanded on-board diagnostics keep the operator informed of changes in grade from ground controls

• The hinged door on the side of the cutter housing makes it easy to access all parts of the cutter housing and change the drum

• The single cutter housing can quickly transition from 2 ft. to 5 ft. wide

• Automated Control of Elevation automates machine elevation through grade and slope sensors

• Operator and ground crew can easily adjust grade and slope parameters in real time

• Depth and slope are continuously displayed

• Can be coupled with Auto-Cut, which automates rear elevation as it enters each cut

Road Widener Curb Backfiller

The Road Widener Curb Backfiller accessory for the FH-R material placement attachment. The accessory extends to the left or right of the FH-R and dispenses material over the curb to backfill with dirt or aggregate.

Paired with the FH-R, the Curb Backfiller supports safety by replacing a backfilling method typically done manually by workers with shovels. Crew members can operate it with the original FH-R remote, reducing the number of workers to one. It attaches to the FH-R and fills on the right by default, or the left, with dual configuration. It provides a clean process by backfilling curbs and keeping debris off the roadway.

JCB CT160 & CT260

Two tandem roller compaction machines, the CT160 and CT260, from JCB are new to the North American market. At 3,770 lbs. to 6,041 lbs., these machines can be trailered for transportation.

The CT160 offers a choice of either a 31.5-in. (800mm) or a 39.3-in. (1000-mm) drum. The CT260 comes with a 47.2-in. (1,200-mm) drum. The machines will be branded with “Vibromax,” after the German company JCB acquired in 2005.

Both machines’ responsive directional drive lever enables fore and aft movements. From a bird’s eye view, the CT160 and CT260 have an hourglass profile, which allows operators to see the drum edges. On the CTs’ control panels, work modes are visible, and the switches are sized to create tactile feedback even with gloved hands. Anti-vibration mounts isolate the operator from drum vibrations.

LiuGong 6612E Single Drum Roller

The LiuGong 6612E Single Drum Roller facilitates soil, gravel or asphalt compaction for road construction and repair. This roller is powered by a 155-hp Cummins QSB4.5 engine and a hydraulic steering system.

Equipped with a single 83.85-in. drum, operators can access two amplitude settings on the machine. Cab features include joystick controls, a digital display and exterior LED lights.

Optional components are available for meeting specific operating or project requirements. An optional rotary beacon supports safety and visibility on busy jobsites, by generating a visible warning signal during use.

Additionally, a compaction meter can be added to the 6612E to measure the density of soil or degree of compaction. Location-based monitoring via GPS is also available as an option.
