Kobelco Construction Machinery Europe announced the launch of its new SK210LC-11 and SK210NLC-11 (narrow chassis variants) for its extensive lineup of high-quality construction machinery.

The next-generation SK210(N)LC-11 provides superior performance, higher efficiency and productivity, and follows Kobelco’s elegant Performance X design philosophy, providing excellent operator-based operability and comfort in this highly competitive level .

Compared with the previous model, the higher operating weight of the machine (21,900-23,500 kg) brings higher stability and excellent lifting capacity. When equipped with a standard counterweight (4,300kg), SK210LC-11 is very suitable for general construction and economic transportation (required in some areas), while the optional counterweight (4,900kg) can be used for heavy-duty performance, such as handling heavy or complex Accessories, such as tilt rotators.

Like many heavy-duty excavators of Kobelco, SK210(N)LC-11 has three working modes: Eco, S and H modes, which can achieve high performance and economy as well as low fuel consumption (the average fuel consumption of SK210LC-10 in Europe). The best balance is currently 10.1 liters/hour).

The new SK210(N)LC-11 benefits from higher durability; the main components have been reviewed and improved to ensure stable performance. For example, the left and right side panels and rear brackets of the machine are thickened to increase the rigidity of the vehicle body, and the increased bucket cylinder connecting rod pin diameter helps to improve the durability of various accessories.

As part of the Kobelco Performance X design concept, SK75/85MSR-7 and the newly launched SK500/530LC-11 model also appeared in this situation. The cabin, ergonomics and safety features of SK210(N)LC-11 have been obtained. Enhanced. Kobelco brand Grammer air suspension seats move together with armrests and hydraulic controls to reduce operator fatigue, provide excellent shock absorption and excellent ride comfort. The operator can move the lever horizontally without twisting the wrist, and the newly upgraded hydraulic control system responds to a shorter lever stroke, providing faster and more precise movement and improved lever operability.

“The 20-ton excavator market is extremely competitive, but the new Kobelco SK210(N)LC11 won the competition,” said product manager Peter Stuijt. "SK210(N)LC-11 promotes the perfect balance between performance and machine stability, provides excellent lifting performance and fuel consumption, and the internal design of the machine is exquisite, taking the operator into consideration."
