CASE CE make additions to compact range

CASE Construction Equipment is expanding its compact machinery line-up with the 550SV backhoe loader, the all-electric TL100EV mini track loader and a series of upgrades to its 221G and 321G compact wheel loaders.

550SV enters European compact backhoe market

The new 550SV marks CASE’s first entry into the European sub-80hp backhoe loader segment. Powered by a 2.8-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine producing 74hp (55kW), the machine is aimed at construction, municipal and rental applications. The EU Stage V engine uses a Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) and Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), without requiring Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) or AdBlue. An extendable dipper arm with an in-line cylinder design is intended to improve visibility and reach, while the front loader features mechanical parallel lift and can accommodate a range of attachments. Ride Control is available to improve comfort and retain material during load-and-carry work. A load-sensing hydraulic system with a variable-displacement pump supplies flow according to demand, while the standard Powershuttle transmission supports smooth direction changes. The cab specification includes a digital instrument cluster, LED working lights, Bluetooth radio and air conditioning. Options include hydraulic breaker lines, a bi-directional auxiliary hydraulic circuit and standard, 4-in-1 or 6-in-1 loader buckets.

“The 550SV has been engineered with an intentionally lean, focused and highly practical specification that is perfectly aligned with the expectations of this sector of the market,” said Umberto Celestini, Backhoe Loaders Product Manager at CASE Construction Equipment.

Electric power for compact applications

CASE is also introducing the TL100EV electric mini track loader for landscaping, urban and agricultural work where low noise and zero tailpipe emissions are important. The machine has a 1.3-tonne tipping load and uses three independent electric motors: two for ground drive and one for the hydraulics. A Common Industry Interface coupling system allows the TL100EV to use a range of attachments. It is available with wide or narrow tracks, with overall widths of 1,026mm and 890mm respectively, increasing to 1,067mm and 914mm with the bucket fitted. Non-marking rubber tracks are available for indoor work. Operators can adjust the electro-hydraulic joystick controls to suit the task, with machine settings managed through a front-console monitor.

221G and 321G wheel loaders updated

CASE has upgraded its 221G and 321G compact wheel loaders, incorporating cab, visibility and control improvements previously introduced on the larger 421G. Both models are available with maximum travel speeds of 20km/h or 40km/h. The 321G can be specified with either a standard Z-Bar linkage or an Extended Reach (XR) loader arm. A new Deluxe cab is now standard, with relocated controls, a seat-mounted console, adjustable steering column and integrated joystick and keypad. CASE says the redesigned cab increases front windscreen glazing by 20% and glazed door surface area by 71%, while additional side glazing and a lowered front console further improve visibility. Operators can adjust loader-arm and bucket responsiveness, while ECO mode and cruise control are designed to help manage fuel consumption and reduce fatigue. Return-to-Dig, travel and lift-height detents are also available to simplify repetitive loading cycles.

Connected service support

The new machines and updated wheel loaders are supported by CASE Service Solutions and the myCASEConstruction app and online portal, which provide access to machine information, performance reports and fleet management tools.
