New 15-tonne offset for Takeuchi

Takeuchi UK has introduced the new TB3150, offering versatility in this busy weight category.

This new machine combines a unique offset boom system with more than 14% increased hydraulic horsepower over the previous model. Powered by a new Yanmar engine rated at 85 kW (114 hp), the machine delivers, Takeuchi says, the performance required across a wide range of demanding applications.

The TB3150’s innovative boom system allows operators to dig offset without repositioning the machine, making it well suited for utility work and applications that require precise positioning. With less track repositioning the TB3150 seems ideal in tight spaces and applications that need 15-tonne power in restricted areas.

Ryan Page, Takeuchi UK Product Manager 

“Operators have praised the machine’s performance in demanding applications, commenting that ‘it feels more powerful.’ It’s particularly encouraging to hear this feedback directly from those using the machine day to day. A significant amount of engineering effort has gone into redesigning the cooling system architecture, resulting in a 14% increase in hydraulic power. This additional performance is something operators can immediately feel when working with the machine”
