Engcon, has announced the integration of its advanced tiltrotator technology with Develon’s latest excavator models, the DX230LC-9 and DX260LC-9. With this collaboration, the new Develon 9 series excavators will now be delivered tiltrotator-ready, setting a new standard for ease of installation and operational efficiency.

The factory-prepared solution ensures a straightforward and time-efficient installation of Engcon DC3 tiltrotators, significantly reducing the need for complex retrofitting.

For rental companies, this development provides a decisive advantage. Tiltrotator-ready excavators allow fleets to easily equip or interchange tiltrotators as needed, maximising machine flexibility and utilisation while simplifying fleet management. End users hiring these machines will benefit from immediate access to tiltrotator functionality, enabling higher productivity and efficiency from day one.

“This collaboration with Develon allows us to provide a more advanced and integrated solution for our end customers, while delivering a simplified installation process for our dealers and rental partners,” says Sam Ryan, Global OEM Manager at Engcon.

The partnership seemingly reflects a broader industry shift toward closer collaboration between excavator manufacturers and tiltrotator specialists, ensuring machines are designed to deliver maximum efficiency and productivity as standard.
