Other ground-breaking developments to be featured in the
Experience Zone include Radar and E-Stop detection and ALA
(Advanced Lift Assist) systems, all of which represent massive
enhancements in site safety; PHM (Prognostics & Health
Management) with the Uptime Center will show the status of
construction equipment through the monitoring of
components and oil with unique technologies; My Develon - a
digital platform that leverages equipment and user data to
offer service solutions for construction equipment throughout
its life cycle.
Zero Emission/Alternative Drives
Electric Excavators
Along with the DX20ZE-7 (canopy) mini-excavator, which was
the first mass-produced electric powered excavator
manufactured by Develon will be another electric mini-
excavator, the brand new DX23E-7. This model which is due to
be launched later this year features a spacious cab and is
powered by an in-house developed 32 kWh/40 kWh lithium
ion battery pack option, with all electrical systems and
components on the machine optimized for work in harsh
environments. Both the DX20ZE-7 and DX23E-7 offer excellent
solutions for companies working in sensitive areas where low
noise or night time work is essential.
DX140WRE 100% battery-powered zero emission
machine
Develon will also display a BEV Zero-Emission 14 tonne
Wheeled Excavator still in development, intended to be used
for a high proportion of urban work as a first development
target, and the plan is to build a line-up of various BEV
products.
The DX140WRE is intended to be the world's first mass-
produced medium-sized wheeled excavator that can work for
more than 8 hours on a single charge, making it a perfect
replacement for conventional internal combustion engine
machines. It was designed to be able to perform a full day's
work without any constraints (such as additional charging)
after a single charge, and the appropriate battery capacity
was selected and installed on the equipment to meet this
purpose.
Product Range Elevation/Extension/Expansion
New Next Generation ‘-9’ Models
Two new smart heavy crawler excavators will be
revealed for the first time in Europe at a special
ceremony on the Develon stand. These Next Generation ‘-9’
models combine ten ground-breaking technologies and will
redefine and set new industry standards in productivity, safety
and operator convenience.
Range Extension
Develon will also launch a number of other new machines at
Bauma to further extend the range of models and to
update/improve existing models with new features. For
example, a large area of the static display section is dedicated
to Develon’s new range of Special Application machines which
will be shown for the first time at Bauma. This includes the
new DX270WMH-7 (27.5 tonne) material handler designed to
carry out the toughest tasks across a wide range of material
sorting/handling applications.
The new DX235LCR-7 Car Dismantler designed to break down
decommissioned vehicles is a 20 tonne plus crawler excavator
with a specific attachment designed for maximum
productivity. The machine is able to hold down dismantled
vehicles while quickly breaking them apart to recycle the
valuable materials they contain.
Another Special Application machine being shown for the first
time is the new 22.5 tonne DX140RDM-7, the latest addition
to the company’s demolition excavator range. Like the three
larger models from 31 to 71 tonne, the DX140RDM-7 offers
multiple configurations, providing the customer with a range
of solutions depending on the project to be completed.
Range Expansions
Develon will also present several new models that extend
current ranges and/or offer new advances and features. These
include the new DX25Z-7 mini-excavator, which offers
customers a new lower weight option in the range, providing
a reduction in terms of operating and transport costs, in
particular.
Develon will also show the new DX165W-7K and DX190W-7K
models, demonstrating several new features and options for
the company’s wheeled excavator range. Similarly, the DL220-
7 wheel loader is being shown to display new features and
options for the company’s award-winning DL-7 wheel loader
range.
