The machine has a low centre of gravity, which allows stable lifting and faster travel speeds, reaching up to 40km\/h when travelling between sites. Additionally, an all-wheel steer give it urban usability.<\/p>\n<p>The machine can also be serviced from ground, which is safer for operators during maintenance.<\/p>\n<p>Chairman Lord Bamford said: \u201cOur team covered a wide range of disciplines and did a tremendous job in analysing what customers needed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe then handed the project to a group of innovators to come up with a solution that defied convention and they did a great job in translating the concept and all the ideas generated into a truly great machine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHydradig will transform the industry and I am certain customers will quickly appreciate its benefits.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tim Burnhope, chief innovation and growth officer, said: \u201cCustomers told us that they need a single machine solution delivering unrivalled visibility, stability, manoeuvrability, mobility and serviceability.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe knew the answer was to innovate, challenge the status quo and give customers solutions they never thought possible.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith the JCB Hydradig we\u2019ve succeeded in delivering against all five customer requirements in the 10-tonne sector.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plant equipment manufacturer JCB has launched a new compact wheeled excavator\u2026 UK-based JCB has revealed a new compact wheeled excavator.
