Bobcat Launches New E57W Stage IIIB Wheeled Excavator
Building on the success of the company’s previous E55W model, Bobcat has launched the new E57W Stage IIIB compliant wheeled excavator. The new E57W is equipped with the Bobcat D24 diesel engine that delivers a 4% increase in power (42.5 kW) along with 7 per cent fuel savings.
The Bobcat engine offers a distinctive solution to Stage IIIB compliance without the use of a diesel particulate filter (DPF). As well as reducing fuel consumption, this ‘non-DPF’ solution simplifies the operation and service of the machine, since there is no need for DPF regeneration.
The E57W has an operating weight of 5920 kg and incorporates an updated hydraulic system delivering enhanced hydraulic performance and a 10 per cent improvement in lift capacity.
A long arm option increases the machine digging depth to 3795 mm and the dump height to 4510 mm. Peripheral equipment can be attached via 1st, 2nd or an optional 3rd auxiliary circuit and is operated with proportional controls.
A newly designed cab and operator area features a 7-inch display which provides fingertip operation of all of the machine functions.
The cab also has a heated seat, ergonomically placed controls and simple, efficient operating procedures that reduce driver fatigue. In addition, the ROPS certified cab offers excellent visibility, making the worksite a safer place for everyone.
Overall, the new Bobcat E57W wheeled excavator is designed to offer high productivity, excellent fuel economy, enhanced ergonomics, improved reliability and reduced maintenance.
