Kobelco India offers reliable mini excavators ranging from 0.8 to 6 tons, with advanced features like hydraulics, zero-tail swing, noise reduction & comfortable ergonomics.

Kobelco India is actively promoting its mini excavators in order to garner a sizeable market share in the long-term. Says Moses Eddy, Director & Executive Vice President, Kobelco India, “We have successfully positioned ourselves as the “True Solution Provider” for our customers as we believe in putting customers’ needs as one of our top priorities. During pre-sales, we guide the customer on the most suitable equipment for their projects, based on the site study by our sales team, and explain to them the benefits of using mini excavators over conventional ways of working.

“If necessary, we give demonstrations of the equipment’s usage and capabilities to potential customers, besides which we have been doing a lot of road shows of our minis to showcase the USP of these compact yet powerful machines. This helps the customers in understanding Kobelco’s cutting-edge competitive technology for enhanced quality and performance. No doubt, our live demos have helped us in generating more business.”

According to Moses, business for the minis in India is quite promising led by major urban renewal and maintenance jobs, that require compact machines that can work in constrained spaces where a normal excavator or a backhoe loader cannot operate. Plus, the large standard machines have limitations in transportation. The mini can work in places where full swing is not possible, for example when working alongside a wall, as its zero-tail feature enables workability in very tight spaces.

Kobelco manufactures a wide range of mini excavators ranging from 0.8 tons to 6 tons that feature advanced hydraulics and zero-tail swing, superior ergonomics, reliable performance, and safety features. Its two models - the SK30SR-6 and SK35SR-6 are equipped with Yanmar engine with power of 18.1 kW and bucket capacity of 0.12 cum.

Says Moses, “We are committed to making our minis less noisy and dusty and have therefore integrated them with our iNDr (Integrated Noise and Dust Reduction Colling) System. Since, we believe that operator comfort is important, our mini excavators have a broader floor space and greater sliding of the seat which gives operators plenty of foot room.”

Kobelco’s mini excavators have an Integrated-Flow Pump system that utilizes three pumps to optimize performance, with the dozer pump providing additional digging power. All the major components are placed for easy access during maintenance. The iNDr filter fitted in front of the cooling system ensures easy cleaning; it removes dust from the intake air, helps the cooling components stay dirt-free for long. “Our goal is to give the best quality product that will increase our customers’ productivity and thereby give them a better RoI.”

Moses informs that the company aims to make the mini excavators suitable for emerging applications and have a competitive positioning in the market. “We will keep on investing in research and development to innovate and improve our minis. For instance, there is a shift from canopy to AC cabin in view of the demand for more operator comfort.”

Other improvisations being carried out by Kobelco include developing advanced features for improving the minis’ efficiency and addressing environmental concerns through introduction of new technologies. Integration of telematics and connectivity features is also being done for higher utilization of the mini excavators.

To provide solutions for different applications of the minis, Kobelco is offering an additional piping kit for special attachments like rock-breaker, grappler, auger, etc. while an AC operator cabin comes as an option. Based on customer needs, the company can also provide rubber tracks in addition to regular tracks and an option of a long arm where more reach is required.
