Mecalac<\/a> has launched its 12MTX wheeled excavator loader to the North American market.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe 12MTX combines the capabilities of a compact excavator, loader and telehandler into a single machine that excels at digging, loading and material handling. It is also a powerful tool carrier that can handle attachments, such as asphalt planers and flail mowers, that require high-flow hydraulics. The multipurpose machine ultimately maximizes profitability by reducing maintenance, labor and equipment transportation costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAnyone who subscribes to the philosophy of \u2018do more with less\u2019 or is simply forced to do more with less will appreciate the 12MTX,\u201d said Peter Bigwood, general manager for Mecalac North America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a compact machine that can work in a tight envelope and do virtually anything you\u2019d expect from the typical jobsite mainstays \u2013 and do it all well. At a time when costs are high and labor is hard to come by, the 12MTX eliminates the need for a big crew, and the need to buy, maintain and haul numerous pieces of equipment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A three-piece, variable angle, side-mounted boom provides the 12MTX with great compactness and range of motion, allowing it to work in areas mono-boom excavators can\u2019t. It can extend nearly straight in almost any direction or fold back on itself for maximum compactness and higher lifting capability. The machine features high-flow hydraulics with a 37-gpm maximum flow rate \u2013 higher than a standard excavator and similar to high-flow skid steers and compact track loaders. Operators can go far beyond what a mini excavator typically offers by easily equipping it with a range of attachments, such as a loader bucket, snow removal equipment, mowers, compactors and planers utilizing Mecalac\u2019s award-winning patented CONNECT quick coupler system. The 12MTX uses a flow rate memory function that allows users to save up to six different profiles\/tools for quick, intuitive switching without the need to input manual settings when going from one attachment to the next.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
