Technical Description

The Volvo EC140E excavator is a medium-sized hydraulic crawler excavator with an operating weight of approximately 28,880 lbs. It features a robust Volvo D4 Tier 4 Final engine delivering a net power of 119 hp (89 kW), optimized for fuel efficiency and reduced emissions. The engine’s 4-cylinder, 4.04-liter displacement provides 566 Nm torque at 1,500 rpm, ensuring responsive combined operation and travel, fast cycle times, and low fuel consumption. The machine has a maximum digging depth of 18.3 feet and a maximum reach along the ground of 26.2 feet, making it suitable for a wide range of earthmoving applications. The EC140E employs automatic two-speed shift travel motors and multi-disc hydraulic track brakes for precise maneuverability and control. The maximum slew speed is 12.5 rpm with a slew torque of 38.8 kNm, supporting efficient boom and stick movements. The boom configuration includes a 4.6 m (15’1”) mono boom with attachments easily switched for various tasks to maximize uptime and productivity. Bucket capacity ranges from 0.33 to 1.01 cubic yards, with breakout forces up to 21,720 lbf (boosted), ensuring high digging and lifting performance. Ergonomics and operator comfort are emphasized via an advanced human-machine interface (HMI) with simplified controls and integrated climate control, contributing to ease of operation and productivity. The machine is built for durability with rust-preventing features, waterproof electrical connections, and reinforced protection for key components. Maintenance access points are grouped and safely positioned to facilitate regular checks, thereby maximizing uptime and machine longevity. Overall dimensions and weight balance support stable operation on various terrains while optimizing transportability. This combination of power, precision, and operator-focused design makes the Volvo EC140E a reliable and efficient excavator for construction and earthmoving projects.
