TAKEUCHI gave bauma 2025 visitors a preview of new electric excavators that will be launched in the coming years, alongside tracked loaders and 3-Series models.
Arriving soon will be a cab version of the two-tonne Takeuchi electric excavator that was introduced back in 2023. The new TB20e will weigh in slightly heavier, powered by a 12.6 kW electric motor/24.7 kWh lithium-ion battery that provides continuous working range of up to eight hours, depending on application and environment.
The TB20e has a maximum dig depth of 2,390mm and a maximum reach of 4,035mm.
Prototypes of other electric Takeuchi excavators scheduled for the future were also highlighted. The TB10e prototype weighs 1,180kg and boasts compact dimensions to fit in even tighter spaces than the TB20e. The excavator offers a dig depth of 1,768mm and a maximum reach of 3,292mm, with a bucket breakout force of 11.2kN.
Takeuchi said the model’s electric motor provides 12.6kW of power, while its 87.6V battery has a capacity of 9.9 kWh, for up to two hours of working time when fully charged in Standard mode and up to four hours when in ECO mode. Full charge time ranges from three hours when using the external charger to 4.5 hours using the onboard version. Built for all-weather operation, it performs in temperatures ranging from -15°C to 45°C.
The TB35e prototype, meanwhile, delivers zero-emission performance with an advanced electric powertrain designed for demanding jobs. This machine weighs in at 3,960kg, making it the largest electric excavator in Takeuchi’s line-up.
The TB35e has dual 10.8kW electric motors and a 49.3kWh battery, providing up to two hours of runtime in Standard mode and four hours of runtime in ECO mode. This digger will offer a maximum dig depth of 3,205mm and a reach of 5,430mm, while its bucket breakout force of 27.1kN is said to ensure strong digging performance.
The Takeuchi booth in Munich also featured eleven other excavator models and two track loaders.
