Wacker Neuson to Launch 14-ton ET145 Compact Excavator in North America

The 32,886-lb. ET145 combines the productivity of a larger crawler excavator with the versatility and accessibility of a compact excavator. It has a 73.8-hp, Tier 4 Final turbocharged engine and optimized powertrain that utilizes a constant power concept to deliver maximum horsepower and torque, regardless of the load on the engine. The 127° boom swing allows the operator to dig along walls and trenches, work around pipes and dig along traffic lines while maintaining a compact footprint.

The unit retains three key features of smaller models: rubber tracks to traverse parking lots and curbs without damage; a dozer blade to act as a stabilizer and a backfilling and grading tool; and a swing arm for digging in front of the tracks adjacent to structures and in other confined areas.

• Provides a breakout force of nearly 20,500 lbs. and digging depth of 18 ft. 
• High-performance hydraulics enable spontaneous actuation of the hydraulic functions and maximum working speed
• Ergonomically designed, spacious cab provides visibility of the entire worksite
• Includes intuitive, easy to reach controls, a 7-in. high-resolution color display with jog dial and a backup camera
• Solid cast dozer blade enhances stability and provides additional functionality for backfilling and grading
• Track options include steel, rubber and hybrid
