Bobcat To Unveil 25th Anniversary E16 Excavator

To mark the celebrations for the 25th anniversary of the Bobcat compact excavator range, a new Limited Edition version of the Bobcat E16 1.6 tonne compact excavator with unique styling is being revealed at Intermat 2012.

More details will be revealed at the show, but the new Limited Edition E16 model is available as standard with a retractable undercarriage and offers powerful performance, superior reliability and durability. Smooth responsive hydraulics enable precise movements and fast cycle times.

Thanks to its compact size and light weight, the E16 can be transported on a trailer towed by a small truck, van or even a mid-size passenger car.

The E16 has a 'cylinder-over-boom' design in which the cylinder, being mounted on top of the boom, is protected when working in tight spaces or with attachments. The oversized diameter of the cylinder enhances the breakout force and lifting capacity of the machine. The auxiliary hydraulic lines and workgroup hoses are also mounted inside the boom and arm for optimal protection and enhanced visibility.

High digging performance is enhanced by the stability provided by the dozer blade and the low centre of gravity of the machine.

The E16 offers low noise and vibration levels, superior operator comfort, ease of serviceability and ruggedness. The spacious cab offers a large door width which, together with the low position of the superstructure, provides easy access to the cab.

A thick metal tailgate protects the rear of the excavator, an important feature for demanding applications in the equipment rental, demolition and construction industries.
