New JCB 140X LC Excavator Featuring the Innovative Safety Shield System

Enhance Your Site Efficiency and Safety with the New JCB 140X LC Excavator Featuring the Innovative Safety Shield System

In today’s demanding construction industry, reliable and powerful machinery is essential. Introducing the latest addition to our fleet: the JCB 140X LC Excavator. This 14-tonne tracked excavator is designed to boost your site’s productivity and safety, tackling the toughest jobs with ease.

Power and Performance

The JCB 140X LC is one of the most advanced 14 tonne excavators on the market today. With a maximum dig depth of 6.16 metres, this machine can handle a variety of tasks, from deep trenching to heavy lifting, with ease. Powered by the efficient JCB DieselMax 448 engine, the 140X LC offers impressive fuel efficiency without compromising on power, making it ideal for long-term projects where operational costs are a concern.

Additional Protection with the Safety Shield System

We've added the integration of the Safety Shield system—a cutting-edge safety technology designed to protect operators and site workers alike. Safety Shield combines advanced proximity detection, intelligent operator alerts, and automatic braking to create a safer work environment. Here’s how it works:

  • Proximity Detection: The system constantly monitors the excavator’s surroundings for potential hazards, alerting the operator to nearby objects, machinery, or personnel. This feature is especially beneficial on busy construction sites where multiple operations occur simultaneously.

  • Intelligent Operator Alerts: Safety Shield provides real-time feedback to the operator, ensuring they are always aware of their surroundings. Visual and auditory alerts help prevent accidents before they happen, allowing operators to take swift corrective action.

  • Automatic Braking: In critical situations, the Safety Shield system can engage automatic braking to prevent collisions, reducing the risk of damage to both the equipment and the workforce.
