MECALAC 15MC CRAWLER EXCAVATOR

Technical Description

The Mecalac 15MC is a compact 15-ton crawler excavator engineered for demanding urban construction and confined site applications. Powered by a DEUTZ TCD 3.6L4 engine, it delivers 100 kW (134 hp) of net power at 2300 rpm with 370 lb-ft of torque, making it the most powerful machine in its class. The 15MC features exceptional versatility with three interchangeable boom configurations: the versatile Mecalac boom offering a maximum 15.6-foot digging depth and 27.3-foot reach, the two-piece excavator boom achieving 16.4-foot depth and 28.9-foot reach, and the offset two-piece boom providing 16.1-foot depth with 28.6-foot reach. This three-section articulated arm with patented offset kinematics enables the machine to work beyond its normal operating perimeter with exceptional precision. Weighing 32,584 pounds, the 15MC can lift 50% of its weight to three meters while maintaining a remarkably compact 5.2-foot tail swing radius and 8.2-foot overall width, ideal for tight urban environments. The machine operates at 6 km/h (3.7 mph) travel speed with a 10 rpm swing mechanism generating 28,000 lb-ft of swing torque. Standard features include 500mm tracks, a 1,000-liter loader bucket capacity, and a comfortable ROPS/FOPS cab with air conditioning, heating, refrigerated compartment, and a 7-inch display screen. Operators can select from three efficiency modes—standby, eco, and power—to optimize fuel consumption. The 39.7-gallon fuel capacity and 32.3 gpm hydraulic pump flow ensure sustained operation across diverse applications including foundation engineering and demolition work.
