Attendees at the GIE+EXPO got a chance to try several new offerings from New Holland, which included the C245, the largest compact track loader in New Holland’s line.
“Customers are asking for better traction, longer-lasting tracks,” said Ryan Anderson, New Holland product marketing specialist with skid steer loader and compact track loaders.
Future releases, Anderson said, will focus on heavy-duty tracks. These longer-lasting tracks are for application in forestry and snow and ice removal, he says.
This next-generation of equipment is paired with New Holland’s FleetForce telematics for real-time fleet and data management.
The C245 features 9,188 pounds of bucket breakout force, 4,500 pounds rated operating capacity (ROC) at 50 percent tipping load and 34.4 inches of dump reach. The C232 compact track loader features 7,360 pounds of bucket breakout force, 3,200 pounds ROC at 50 percent tipping load and 34.4 inches of dump reach.
Also on display was the E60C compact excavator, which the company says it has the highest horsepower in its class. The E60C also boasts 9,190 pounds of breakout force and reduced tail swing. The compact excavator has standard separate one-way and two-way hydraulic circuits as well as an optional second auxiliary hydraulic circuit.
The W80C compact wheel loader was also on display along with the E37C compact excavator, L228 skid steer loader, B95C backhoe loader and C237 compact track loader with a cab.
