Mecalac has brought a range of new compact loaders to the market to meet a need for small multi-purpose articulated loaders in the construction, rental and agricultural sectors. According to the company, its loaders and skid-steers are gradually replacing other types of machines such as tractors due to greater versatility, agility and safety in its various applications.
The new Mecalac MCL range includes six models, from 1.74-to-2.85 tonnes: four models with long boom (Standard) to fit the needs of the agricultural segment; two models with short boom to fit the needs of the construction segment.
The MCL4+ and MCL6+, which have been designed with short arm versions to meet the specific needs of the construction sector, offer an increased tipping load, said the company. The new range adds to the multi-purpose equipment already available at Mecalac through five product lines: excavators, loaders, backhoe loaders, site dumpers and compaction rollers.
All the machines will be available in three versions: canopy, canopy with foldable top or cab version, and all with a wide selection of attachments. The new MCL loaders can be equipped with Mecalac’s latest comfort and driver assistance technologies, including: M-Drive, Speed-control, MyMecalac Connected Services and Start-up digicode.
In the last year, Mecalac has announced a slew of new products. In May 2021, it launched its 3.5MDX cabbed site dumper, following which, in June, it upgraded its MDX site dumper range with new models and features. In May 2022, the firm revealed three new swing loaders.
