Kobelco SK 27 SR 5 features overview

SR-3 Series: Superior Mini Excavator
KOBELCO has been instrumental in the spread of Zero Swing-Radius (SR) mini excavators in Japan where SR machines have become standard by now. Now we are pleased to announce our new SR-3 Series Mini Excavators, a new generation of machines with better performance, comfort and durability than ever before. Their unique corkscrew design is perfectly suited for urban road use. As always, the zero tail swing radius saves time and effort on confirming rear safety while a low centre of gravity provides excellent stability. The newly developed hydraulic system (three pumps with integrated flow), high capacity, offers superior levels of power control over each other as well as providing an ideal level of protection during
Performance
The new, easy-to-reach cab offers plenty of space and comfort. Operators love how easy it is to get up every day; owners love the simple maintenance and durability that contribute to a long service life. No matter how you look at it -- tough and fast digging and leveling, ease of operation or longevity -- KOBELCO's new SR-3 series mini excavators lead the package setting new standards in excellence.

Engine / Driveline and transmission

Highly Reliable Power Plant
The size of many engine components has been increased for improved reliability, including: a large dough y; wide-capacity radiator ; large oil filter ; and increased starting motor and alternator capacities.
1. Breather prevents malfunctions in
Hydraulic components, Large battery and large-capacity radia3. Large capacity oil cooler, Increased starting engine capacity, Increased alternator capacity
KOBELCO's Exclusive SuperFine Filter
This exclusive superfine filter is environmentally friendly, lasts 1,000 hours and can be easily replaced.
Easy Cleaning
1. Radiator is easy to clean, two-piece floor mats for easy washing, The bottom plate has no projections and makes it easy to wash off and wipe dry. Resin fuel tank resists rust and is removable for ease of cleaning, oil pan for engine oil filter, No tools needed for fuel/tank drain cock, quick drain provided as standard for engine oil.

Hydraulics

SPEED AND CONTROL Powerful Digging Performance
The SR-3 mini excavators are built for tough work. Thanks to a new IFPS (Integrated-Flow Pump System) and the large volume engine, hydraulic flow is more efficient than ever, with sensitive responsiveness that reduces cycle times. This combination of hard power and speed increases hourly digging capacity.
15% more Integrated-Flow Pump System (Three Pumps)
Very Increased Digging Capacity (Actual Measurements with an SK30SR) As soon as the machine starts digging, an additional output of the third pump (which otherwise drives the swing and dozer circuit) is routed to the arm circle for added power. This ensures fast and smooth arm operation even under heavy loads.
Clean, precise operability
The excellent responsiveness of the controls brings power to carry exactly where and when it is needed, while at the same time ensuring smoothness for demand-oriented delicate control. Simultaneous operation of swings, arm and booms runs smoothly and evenly with a sensitive response to lever lift.
More Travel Power
The larger capacity of the travel motors provides more driving torque (a 25% rise in the SK30SR), resulting in powerful rides. Dozer operations also benefit from the high performance ability of the travelling system to work smoothly on rough or swampy terrain.
Automatic Two-Speed Travel System
An automatic shift feature ensures a smoother, more efficient ride on the job site. The increased travel torque allows the machine to perform spin turns even during a heavy load in low mode. Dozer operations are an indispensable part of pipe laying, trench digging and other tasks that require levelling, compaction and filling. To meet this need, the SR-3 mini excavators combine a powerful driving system with a redesigned, highly efficient dozer blade moving earth with less waste.

Environment

Optimized Bucket/Blade Positioning
The distance between bucket and dozer blade has been minimised to make the area sweep (with the bucket sweeping the earth into the dozer blade) more convenient.
New Dozer-Blade Shape
Conventional dozer blades simply press the earth straight ahead and the ear th spills behind the blade. Our new blade design solves this problem by forming the earth into an arc that always falls forward. Because it prevents ground from falling behind the leaf, only one pass is required. (Patent pending)
Maximum Approach Angle of 38°
The dozer blade can be raised significantly higher than before. With a maximum approach angle of 38, it is easy to drive the machine up above earth hill or load it onto a truck for transportation.

Tyres / Tracks

Crawlers That Support Greater Travel Power
The undercarriage provides greater travel performance while preventing track derailment. In addition, the lower rollers are set at uneven intervals to greatly reduce vibration and thus decrease operator fatigue.

Other features

Easy Access
A wider opening door and left-hand control box, which jumps higher than before, make it easier for operators to enter and exit the cab. SR-3 machine cabins give the operator as much space as one would expect from a medium sized conventional machine. Improved cab access, wide control room, generous seating area, panoramic view plus easy-to-use control levers all contribute to a comfortable, stress free working environment. Every detail has been carefully considered to increase ease and comfort.
Spacious Work Environment
Larger front window provides an open, panoramic view. Working lights have been added on both sides to allow a clear view during night operations. The floor area has been expanded and the sliding area of the seat increased so that plenty of foot space is given to operators. Wide use site with more room between left and right control consoles.
Newly Developed ROPS Cab
Deformed pipe is used in the cab frame to increase rigidity, resulting in 50% higher durability and service life.
Exclusive, Newly Designed Canopy
The newly developed TOPS three support canopy provides easy access and offers an open view of digging operations when swinging.
ENDURANCE High Durability and Low Maintenance
The SR-3 machines are built to work with tough attachments and highly reliable power plants that continue working in harsh conditions. Components are designed for easy access, looking at reducing downtime and a minimum of maintenance costs.
Easy Maintenance
Start-up checks are essential for safe and reliable machine operation. With the SR-3 machines, all starting checks can be performed at ground level, with an easy to understand layout and cover design that simplifies access and reduces check times.

Safety

Optional Steel Shoes/Rubber-padded Shoes
The steel shoes have holes, specially designed rubber pads to protect the road sur.
