Mecalac Plataforma rastreada en orden cronológico

Weighing in at nine tons and using a 75kW turbocharged diesel engine, the 10MCR uses a triangular track frame profile, which affords fast travel speeds in both directions using a closed-circuit hydrostatic transmission called Senso-drive. This feature allows the machine to operate at speeds of up to 10km/h in both directions.

In the cab, Mecalac has equipped the 10MCR with a mode switch that enables easy change over from skid-steer loader controls to that of tracked excavator format.

As a result, the firm claims it is a combination of four machines – excavator, loader, tool carrier and materials handler, all in one package.

2012 – Prototype of the 6MCR, Mecalac's 6-tonne fast crawler excavator.

2013 – Commercial launch of the 6MCR at Bauma.

The machine has a travel speed of up to 10km/h and can be used as both a skid steer loader and an excavator. Built at a new site in Turkey, the 6MCR weighs in at 6 tonnes and is powered by a 55kW (75hp) engine. In excavator mode the machine has a maximum tearout force of 2,400daN and a breakout force of 3,900daN.

At full stretch the machine can reach out to a maximum working range of 8.8m, and can offer a dig depth of -4.98m while delivering an impressive 8,170 daN breakout force.

Power comes from a turbocharged Deutz TCD 3.6 L4 water cooled diesel engine, which pushes out 136hp @2,300rpm.
