The pioneering range has been developed to meet the exacting requirements of today's urban construction sites. Each product is compact, fuel-efficient and multi-functioning.
Mecalac MCR – Unique in the marketplace, the MCR can switch from compact tracked excavator (with a top speed of 10 km/h) to loader (with 360° rotation capability) within seconds. Available in three model variations – 6MCR (0.49m2 bucket capacity), 8MCR (0.53m2 bucket capacity) and 10MCR (0.75m2 bucket capacity) – each unit is powered by a 55kW engine.
Mecalac MWR – Perfectly blending stability and compactness, the MWR adopts an innovative wheeled chassis. Four models are available – 7MWR, 9MWR, 11MWR and 15MWR. Incorporating a closed hydrostatic transmission system, each model is fast and nimble, with both two and four-wheel steer (crab option) available. Alongside boasting direct entry into the cab, the MWR range can be refuelled from the floor.

Mecalac MTX – The MTX is a combined excavator, loader, forklift and tool carrier in a single machine. Equipped with a variable-adjustment boom (with offset), the unit offers an optimum working envelope. The articulated undercarriage allows for a low centre of gravity and class-leading stability, while a 140 tilting angle enhances manoeuvrability. The 12MTX is also equipped with Mecalac's CONNECT quick coupler, which is integrated directly into the dipper stick.
