Case Construction Equipment has taken its CX60D mini excavator platform and reimagined it — adding a larger footprint, bigger undercarriage and a longer arm — to create the all-new CX70E.
The excavator, which Case classifies as a "midi" size, delivers greater stability, lifting capacity, dig depth and reach, thanks to the heavier 16,072-pound operating weight and wider 6-foot 11-inch undercarriage. Its zero tailswing design enhances maneuverability in urban construction sites and alongside roads and structures.
The CX70E runs on a 60-horsepower engine with enough power and hydraulic flow for digging, grading and material handling. Three auxiliary hydraulic circuits support standard and high-flow attachments such as hydraulic hammers, rippers, thumbs, mulchers, augers and tiltrotators. The model on display at ConExpo 2026 was equipped with a CNH Hydraulic Quick Coupler, 24-inch Digging/Trenching Bucket and Hydraulic Thumb.
Buyers can select from three track options— full rubber, steel or steel with rubber pads— to match the terrain and task.
A load-sensing, flow-sharing hydraulic system with electro-hydraulic proportional controls allows. This gives operators the fine control they need for trenching, grading and craning, while reducing effort and minimizing corrections, the company says.
Dealer-installed machine control, from 2D depth and slope guidance to full 3D grade control, are available.
Equipment WorldCase decked out the premium cab with a 7-inch LCD touchscreen, automatic climate control and a standard heated air-suspension seat. It also includes automatic two-speed travel and a reversible programmable cooling fan for better operating efficiency.
To simplify daily checks and routine maintenance, the tilting cab offers access to hydraulic components, along with wide compartments, swing-out rear and side panels, and ground-level service checkpoints.
Case notes that the CX70E shares several other commonalities with the CX60D — including the engine, zero-tail layout, auxiliary circuits and a standard quick coupler circuit — while providing increased digging depth and dump height. “The CX70E makes it easy for mixed fleet customers to standardize everything from training to attachments to service practices,” the company says.
