The Dieselmax 444 engine and hydraulic system with two gear pumps are accompanied by a reliable cooling system. The quick-release carriage allows you to replace attachments in a matter of minutes.

AGB company uses modern technologies for processing the traverse and tower of the frame, as well as innovative technology for the production of frame spars, which has reduced the manufacturing time and increased the durability of parts.
The technical characteristics of the model are not inferior to functionality: the digging depth is 5990 mm, the weight of the machine is 8400 kg, the volume of the jaw bucket is 1 m3, the engine power is 68.6 kW.
This makes the excavator versatile and makes it possible to use it in a number of industries.

One of the company's goals was to create equipment that would be interchangeable with an imported analogue, which means that our customers will not have difficulties with the purchase of spare parts and can be sure of the availability of components in any region of Russia.
Modern production facilities allowed us to start a project at the beginning of 2022, the first results of which we presented at the exhibition this year. AGB 3CR is the pride of the team, as the share of its own developments, domestic materials and components used in its creation is 80%. By 2025, it is planned to produce at least 50 units of equipment per month, as our domestic market feels a high demand for this type of construction equipment. Already today we offer our customers an expanded range of spare parts, which allows us to provide planned replacement and maintenance of the existing fleet of foreign-made special equipment, as well as smoothly and less costly to form a new one," said Kirill Viktorovich Kulik, General Director of AGB Construction Machinery.
