Compact electric mini excavator for urban construction

Develon introduces the DX23E-7 electric mini excavator with battery capacity up to 40 kWh and integrated telematics for urban construction, low-emission sites, and confined workspaces.  na.develon-ce.com Develon has expanded its portfolio of electric construction equipment with the DX23E-7 mini excavator, designed for urban environments, noise-sensitive worksites, and indoor applications. The machine features a closed cab and an optimized electric power system engineered to deliver operational autonomy and reliability in demanding working conditions. High-capacity battery and operating autonomy The DX23E-7 is equipped as standard with a 32 kWh battery, one of the highest capacities in its class. A version with a larger 40 kWh battery is also available for applications requiring extended operating time. With the standard battery, the machine offers an indicative operating time of up to eight hours, depending on the application. Full charging typically requires between six and ten hours with standard charging (3–6 kW), while fast charging at 15 kW can complete the cycle in approximately 1.5 hours. The 40 kWh configuration can extend operating time to around ten hours, with charging times ranging from seven to twelve hours under standard charging conditions and approximately 2.5 hours to reach 80% capacity using fast charging. Improved performance and stability The DX23E-7 is based on the platform of the diesel-powered DX19-7 but incorporates several performance improvements. Lifting capacity is increased by approximately 5%, alongside improvements in travel performance, working efficiency, and operational stability. The development of the electric power system required modifications to the chassis, including the removal of the cross plate and an increase of 35 mm in the rear swing radius to accommodate the battery pack. Reduced maintenance and environmental impact Because the machine does not use a diesel engine, periodic maintenance requirements are significantly reduced. Scheduled service primarily concerns the hydraulic system, with intervals of approximately 1,000 operating hours. Electric propulsion eliminates local emissions and significantly reduces operating noise, making the machine suitable for residential areas, urban construction sites, and night operations. Compact configuration for confined environments Retractable tracks allow the DX23E-7 to pass through narrow entrances and passages. Once in the work area, the tracks can be extended to improve stability and lifting performance. Thanks to its compact dimensions, the machine is also suitable for light demolition and indoor construction work. Integrated telematics for machine monitoring A telematics system is included as standard, allowing operators and dealers to remotely monitor machine location, operating status, and productivity via a mobile application or web portal. The system enables users to: track equipment location and reduce theft risks prevent unauthorized machine use schedule maintenance operations configure customized alerts monitor parameters such as oil pressure and operating temperature analyze operational data to improve operator productivity With the DX23E-7, Develon introduces a compact zero-emission excavator designed to combine operational performance, electric autonomy, and digital monitoring for modern urban construction applications. www.develon-ce.com Powered by Induportals Media Publishing
