LBX Company has introduced three new Link-Belt long front excavators – the 220, 260, and 370 X4S.
At the core of the three new Link-Belt excavators is a sophisticated electronically controlled hydraulic pump system and the SSC (Spool Stroke Control) system. This combination ensures precise control and optimal performance in various applications, from dredging and waterway work to road construction and site remediation.
All three long front excavators demonstrate impressive reach capabilities. The 220 model extends to 15.5 metres, while the 260 takes it to the next level, reaching 18.2 metres. The 370 model boasts the longest reach, extending to 18.5 metres.
Digging deeper isn’t an issue with these machines, as the 220 X4S long front model can dig up to 12 metres, the 260 model can reach 14.5 metres, and the 370 model can dig to a depth of 14.1 metres.
The long front excavators are powered by an Isuzu Tier 4 Final engine, which delivers exceptional fuel economy. The innovative design eliminates the need for a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), reducing maintenance costs and environmental impact. Operators can choose from four power modes: Speed, Priority, Eco and Lift, to tailor performance to specific tasks, maximizing efficiency and minimizing fuel consumption.
Extended operation
Built for durability and reliability, the long fronts feature a 500-hour fuel filter service interval, enabling operators to work longer between filter changes.
Additionally, the DEF tank’s low consumption rate of only 2 to 3 per cent (compared to diesel) allows for extended operation between refills. Fuel consumption in SP mode is improved by 4 per cent for the 220 LF, 4.5 per cent for the 260 LF, and 3 per cent for the 370 X4S LF (compared to the X4’s SP mode). All service points are accessible at ground level for easy access.
The spacious cab, equipped with ROPS and FOPS Level 1 certification, provides a comfortable and safe working environment. A high-definition, 25-cm LCD monitor features an anti-glare coating for clear visibility in all lighting conditions.
The user-friendly monitor can be customized to display essential information, including custom hydraulic work tool names, system and machine warning messages, SCR auto regeneration status, in-cab pressure controls, and WAVES (Wide Angle Visual Enhancement System) provides a seamless 270-degree view around the machine.
Ample legroom, a high back, tilting and a heated seat contribute to a work environment that promotes relaxation and focus for operators working long hours.
