JCB (forklift): specifications

In the world market of special machinery, one of the most recognized leaders is the British company JCB. It produces and exports around the world more than three hundred models of equipment: excavators, sealing equipment, loaders.

Back in 1953, the owner of the company developed and implemented the concept of "backhoe loader", combining in one machine an easy excavator and a tractor loader.

Backhoe loaders JCB

More than 400 thousand backhoe loaders were manufactured by JCB. This technology uses unique parts and components that are the property of the company, and innovative technical solutions. The TorgueLock system, developed by the company's specialists, allows to reduce fuel consumption and increase the speed while driving on the highway; EcoDig provides functionality at low engine speeds, not only significantly reducing fuel consumption, but also reducing the amount of exhaust gas; EcoLoad shortens the duty cycle and increases the tractive effort, allowing the lifts to increase the operating parameters of the machine.

The flagship of the line is the JCB 5CX ECO backhoe loader. It was developed taking into account the Russian market, engine power is 118 hp. He has the best characteristics of loading and digging, speed on the highway, off-road qualities.

The compact full-turn JCB 1CX machine features high maneuverability and small dimensions (width - 1.4 m), so it can work even indoors, in two versions, on wheels or tracks.

The most popular model on the market is the JCB 3CX SM ECO backhoe loader. It differs not only in high performance, best in the segment, but also in low consumption of diesel fuel, considerable depth of digging and a long service interval.
