À propos · Mecalac 6MCRAperçu
The Mecalac 6MCR is a compact radius excavator in the sub-10-tonne class, designed around a short-tail-swing chassis that keeps the counterweight within the machine's track width during rotation. It combines conventional excavator digging performance with enhanced site mobility, positioning it as a purpose-built solution for confined urban and infrastructure environments rather than a scaled-down general-purpose machine. The compact radius configuration distinguishes it structurally from standard short-radius and conventional-tail-swing machines in the same weight class.
Applications typiquesLieu d'utilisation de cette machine
The 6MCR is suited to urban construction, utility trenching, and roadside or pavement work where operating space is restricted and proximity to traffic, facades, or underground services demands close control of the machine's swing envelope. It performs well on site-preparation, drainage, and pipe-laying tasks in city-centre contracts and housing renovation projects. The compact radius format also makes it a practical choice for work inside courtyards, underpasses, and other enclosed structures where a conventional counterweight overhang would create a collision risk.
Marché actuelPosition tarifaire
Within the compact radius excavator segment, the 6MCR is cross-shopped against machines such as the Volvo ECR58, Kubota KX080, Yanmar SV100, and Caterpillar 308 CR, all of which compete on the basis of swing geometry, auxiliary hydraulic provision, and cab ergonomics. The Mecalac 6MCR differentiates itself through its brand's specific focus on compact urban plant and the proportions of its tail-swing envelope rather than through powertrain or weight-class outliers. Within its price band, the attributes that move a used example toward the stronger end of the range are low recorded hours, a verified service history, the presence of a quick-coupler, multiple auxiliary hydraulic circuits, and a well-maintained attachment package including buckets or a breaker. Machines in poorer cosmetic or mechanical condition, with high hours and no documentation, sit at the lower end regardless of year, while factory-fitted options such as a dozer blade or enhanced cab specification support value retention.
