The EW100 Wacker Neuson wheeled excavator has been redesigned. The 10-ton excavator has a maximum digging depth of 195.6 inches, maximum dumping height of 246.5 inches, and bucket breakout force of 16,478 pounds.
The Wacker Neuson EW100 has two diesel engine options: standard 74 horsepower with speeds up to 18.6 miles per hour, or the high-performance 136-horsepower engine enabling travel speeds up to 24 miles per hour. The high-performance edition offers multiple auxiliary circuits including high flow.
The wheeled excavator uses an intelligent attachment management system. This new standard, MiC 4.0, allows universal communication and compatibility between attachment and equipment manufacturers, according to the company.
Swing power has been increased by 20 percent compared to the predecessor machine. Three-point kinematics enable a 200-degree bucket rotation angle, 20-percent improved digging specifications, and improved stability.
The new cab design includes a 10-inch touch screen that can be programmed to save individual settings and information for different operators and construction sites. The operator-based machine-setting stores both personal key assignment for the operator’s own comfort as well as attachment and flow rate settings per user.
A low engine hood improves visibility, as do large windows and doors and a rearview camera. The Active Working Signal (AWS), a long red LED light at the rear of the machine, alerts others on the job site when the machine is moving. The auto-brake function automatically brakes as soon as the operator’s foot is removed from the throttle. The joystick steering option allows the operator to choose between driving via a steering wheel or using the ergonomic joysticks.
