LINK-BELT EXCAVATORS 80 X3 SPIN-ACE (TIER 4 FINAL) CRAWLER EXCAVATOR

Technical Description

The Link-Belt 80 X3 Spin-Ace is a compact, Tier 4 Final-certified mini excavator engineered for precision digging in confined spaces and tight job sites. Powered by an Isuzu AP-4LE2X turbocharged diesel engine, this machine delivers 54-55 net horsepower (40-41 kW) with a maximum torque of 142 lbf-ft at 1,800 rpm, utilizing direct fuel injection and charge air cooling technology for optimal efficiency and emissions compliance. The excavator operates at a lean 18,717-18,900 lbs (8.59-8.6 metric tons), enabling easy transport and minimal ground disturbance on sensitive terrain. Its boom and stick configuration provides exceptional reach capabilities, with maximum digging depth of approximately 13'-15' and ground-level reach extending to 22'-24'. The machine features two Kawasaki variable-displacement axial-piston pumps and one gear pump, generating up to 39.2 gpm of hydraulic flow for smooth, responsive bucket and swing operations. The 80 X3 Spin-Ace distinguishes itself through its minimum swing radius design, allowing operators to work efficiently in constrained environments where traditional excavators cannot access. With a maximum travel speed of 3.2 mph and gradeability of 70%, the machine demonstrates excellent mobility and hill-climbing capability. The hydraulic system operates at pressures up to 4,260 psi for boom and bucket circuits, providing powerful digging force of 12,800 lbf while maintaining fuel efficiency improvements of up to 18% compared to previous generation models. Standard features include a ROPS cabin, traction drive, and comprehensive hydraulic controls, making the 80 X3 Spin-Ace an ideal choice for demolition, utility work, and landscaping applications requiring precision and maneuverability in compact spaces.
