Takeuchi Compact Excavator TB280FR

Takeuchi TB280FR Compact Excavator: Revolutionizing Compact Excavation

The Takeuchi TB280FR stands at the forefront of compact excavation technology, distinguishing itself from competitors through its innovative side-to-side (STS) boom configuration and full rotation (FR) capabilities.

This unique design offers unparalleled visibility to both the attachment and the jobsite, ensuring precision and efficiency in every task. The TB280FR’s ability to stow its boom over the center in a fully upright position allows for a full rotation within an incredibly tight radius, providing the performance and productivity of larger excavators with the agility of a much smaller, 5-ton machine.

Unmatched Performance and Productivity

• Operating Weight: Ranges from 18,810 lb (8,530 kg) with rubber tracks to 19,240 lb (8,730 kg) with steel tracks, balancing stability and mobility.
• Powerful Digging Forces: Maximum bucket breakout force of 16,335 lb (7,409 kg) and arm digging force of 7,037 lb (3,192 kg) ensure formidable excavation capabilities.
• Enhanced Hydraulic System: A total hydraulic flow of 52.5 gpm (198.0 L/min) supports efficient operations with dual auxiliary circuits for various attachments.

Advanced Engine and Hydraulic Technology

• Yanmar Power: Powered by a Yanmar 4TNV98CT engine, producing 69.2 hp (51.6 kW) at 2,000 rpm and 227.2 ft-lb (308 Nm) of torque at 1,300 rpm, the TB280FR combines efficiency with power.
• Sophisticated Hydraulics: With a hydraulic system pressure of 3,990 psi (27.5 MPa), the excavator offers precise control and power for demanding tasks.

Operator-Focused Design for Enhanced Comfort and Efficiency

The TB280FR’s cabin redefines operator comfort with an automotive-styled interior, featuring a color multi-information display for instant access to machine health and performance metrics. Multiple attachment presets with operator-adjustable flow rates and dual auxiliary hydraulic circuits allow a seamless transition between tasks. Additional safety and convenience features include a boom holding valve, overload alarm, backfill blade with a float position, and a tilt-up cab for easy serviceability.

Compact Dimensions, Broad Capabilities

• Maximum Reach: Achieves up to 23 ft 7.2 in (7,195 mm), with a maximum digging depth of 14 ft 11.0 in (4,540 mm), providing extensive operational range.
• Compact Footprint: With a transport length of 20 ft 7.4 in (6,285 mm) and a height of 8 ft 11.4 in (2,725 mm), the TB280FR is designed for easy transportation and access to tight spaces.
• Tail Swing Radius: A minimal 4 ft 2.4 in (1,280 mm) tail swing radius enhances maneuverability in confined areas, making it ideal for urban and residential projects.
