Bell Beefs Up Excavator Range With Heavy-Duty 20-Tonner

Bell Equipment, the exclusive distributor of Kobelco Excavators in Southern Africa, is excited to introduce the new tenth generation Kobelco SK220XD to its range, which bolsters the region’s 20-ton class with a heavy-duty machine that is both highly productive and economical in all aspects.

“The SK220XD-10 is loaded with features not usually found in 20t machines; features that make this model well-matched to Africa’s toughest mining and construction sites,” says Bell Equipment Marketing and Alliance Partner Manager, Stephen McNeill.

“The SK220XD-10 has a rated power output of 118kW at 2 000rpm and a maximum torque of 592Nm at 1 600rpm. Like the current SK210 and SK260, it is fitted with a 4-cylinder Toyota Hino engine, which has performed exceptionally well in our construction, mining, and forestry industries. Bell has sold around 150 Kobelco machines with this engine since 2017.”

Structurally the machine is much stronger. The SK220XD-10 has a one cubic metre heavy-duty bucket, designed, and manufactured by Bell Equipment with South African conditions in mind. The boom and arm, which take the greatest punishment, are reinforced with thick steel plate for a more robust attachment while long, solid rock guards prevent damage to the arm.

According to Stephen, the undercarriage has extra wear protection plates for increased durability compared to standard models. In addition, the travel system is more powerful and heavy duty due to large, strengthened track guides, a reinforced travel motor cover, and robust guarding to protect the hydraulic piping and equipment.
