JCB’s quiet achiever of the construction site
JCB has released its first electric excavator, touted as the quietest digger in its range.
The manufacturer says the zero-emission JCB 19C-1 E-TEC mini excavator will allow contractors to work inside buildings and in emissions-sensitive inner city environments.
It will also allow rail contractors to operate in tunnels and underground, without having to install costly exhaust extraction equipment.
Another advantage that the external noise, at 7dBA lower, is a massive fivetimes quieter than its traditional diesel powered counterpart.
JCB says the fully charged electric machine is capable of putting in a full shift in normal operation. . .
