Client Feedback

Trusted by Operators Worldwide

"We deployed three of your 20t crawler excavators at our copper mine in Zambia. After 14 months of continuous operation, we recorded 96.8% fleet availability. The low fuel consumption compared to competing brands saved us approximately $18,000 per machine per year."

Patrick Mwanza
Equipment Manager — Lumwana Mining Corp., Zambia

"Your 180t crawler crane handled the bridge segment lifting for our highway expansion project flawlessly. The pre-delivery engineering consultation and load chart analysis gave us confidence before the first lift was even attempted."

Rajesh Patel
Project Director — Reliance Infrastructure Development, India

"The micro excavator we purchased for inner-city utility work has been the most reliable machine in our fleet. Zero tail swing allows us to operate in spaces where no other machine can fit, and the noise level is low enough for residential areas."

Thomas Eriksson
Operations Manager — Nordic Urban Services AB, Sweden
Common Questions

Equipment Selection Guide

Answers to the questions our engineers hear most often from procurement teams.

For confined urban utility work, our 1.7t to 3.5t micro and mini excavator range with zero tail swing is the standard recommendation. These machines achieve digging depths of 2.0–3.2 m while fitting through standard doorways and operating within 1.5m corridor widths. Ground pressure is typically below 30 kPa, suitable for paved surfaces. Our application team can recommend specific boom and bucket configurations for your utility diameter.

Yes. All Kobelco export equipment carries a CE Declaration of Conformity in accordance with Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. Mobile equipment is fitted with EU Stage V compliant engines as standard. Documentation package includes CE Declaration, engine Type Approval, sound power emission test report, and REACH compliance declaration. Crawler cranes additionally comply with EN 13000 safety requirements.

Kobelco employs a closed-centre load-sensing hydraulic system combined with independent pump flow control. This architecture delivers hydraulic oil only when and where it is needed, eliminating bypass losses common in open-centre systems. The result is 10–15% lower fuel consumption in typical excavation cycles compared to conventional systems. Additionally, our auto-idle and automatic engine shutdown features further reduce fuel waste during non-productive intervals.

We maintain regional parts depots in Singapore, Dubai, Osaka, and Rotterdam stocking over 45,000 part numbers. Standard orders dispatch within 48 hours. For machine-down emergencies, our AOG (Aircraft on Ground equivalent) programme offers same-day air freight dispatch from the nearest hub. We guarantee genuine OEM parts availability for a minimum of 10 years after each model exits production.

Kobelco crawler cranes range from 50t to 300t maximum lifting capacity. All models feature a modular boom system, allowing rapid configuration changes between luffing jib, fixed jib, and heavy-lift configurations. Transport dimensions comply with standard road limits, and self-assembly is achievable with a single assist crane for models up to 180t. For bridge segment lifting, our engineering team provides load chart analysis and rigging plans as part of the pre-order technical consultation.
