Zero Emission Site Dumpers
THE FIRST
MECALAC 6-TON
ZERO EMISSION
SITE DUMPER
The new Mecalac eMDX retains the fundamentals and heritage of the Mecalac 6MDX site dumpers in terms of productivity, safety and reliability, while incorporating Mecalac’s technologies and expertise in zero emissions solutions.
AUTONOMY
Seamless switch to electric
With a record battery capacity of 75 kW.h, the eMDX can operate intensively for a minimum of 8 hours non-stop. Only 4 hours are required to charge the battery. The eMDX unrivaled 8-hour autonomy can be achieved thanks to the battery’s power and heat management technologies. This autonomy translates into dozens of additional hours as site dumpers are mainly used on a periodic basis with frequent machine stops.
Performance
Largest 100% electric site dumper
Unlike “mini” electric site dumpers, Mecalac has focused its R&D investment on offering an emission-free solution for transporting materials on a scale never previously achieved. The result is the Mecalac eMDX, the first 6-ton electric site dumper with uncompromising levels of autonomy, performance, and safety.
The automatic transmission ensures all the power of the electric motor is transmitted to the permanent four-wheel drive, for unrivaled power and efficiency on all terrains.
2 electric motors:
– – – 1 for the transmission
– – – 1 for the skip and hydraulics
MDX-Series Cab: designed & tested to withstand impact
SAFETY
The safest cabbed dumper got even safer
In addition to the ROPS/FOPS certification, the cab of the eMDX has been tested by Mecalac to withstand impacts while loading the dumper skip. A series of front and side impact tests have been performed using different excavator swing speeds to simulate real impacts that could occur. The eMDX cab has proven to be highly resistant to potential impacts, reinforcing our leadership position in terms of safety.
Mecalac’s design features ensure enhanced safety with easier machine access, excellent all-around visibility, and a higher level of operator protection. Adding to this, an advanced object detection radar identifies potential hazards in front of the machine, maximizing safety standards.
