TB20e
Electric Hydraulic Compact Excavator
As Takeuchi looks to the future and how we can be better stewards of the environment, we have once again tapped into our spirit of creation and innovation and developed the all-electric TB20e compact hydraulic mini excavator. The beauty of the TB20e is that it is a zero emission and low noise level compact excavator with the same performance features and capabilities as diesel powered machines in the same class.
It is ideal for use in areas that have both noise and emissions restrictions such as in and around schools, neighborhoods, hospitals, and municipalities. An onboard charger is able to not only charge the machine during breaks and at the end of the workday, it also allows the operator to work while tethered. Also available is an offboard charger that can be used to charge the TB20e in a relatively short amount of time. The TB20e is work ready and demonstrates its Takeuchi pedigree through and through whether it be its rugged all steel construction and heavy-duty design, standard long arm with thumb bracket, or the retractable undercarriage which enables the TB20e to work in confined areas and pass through openings as narrow as 38.6”.
For customers wanting to reduce their carbon footprint while still being able to get jobs done on time and with minimal downtime, the Takeuchi TB20e provides an abundance of productivity and a reduction of overall operating costs that are associated with traditional diesel-powered construction equipment.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Electric Power
- 100% Lithium-Ion battery power ensures zero emission operation making the TB20e ideal for working in a wide range of applications that include food processing facilities, indoor demolition, hospitals, and schools.
- Reduced noise and vibration levels enable the operator to work in areas sensitive to noise pollution.
- Impressive run times and the ability to operate while tethered ensure you can complete jobs in a timely and efficient manner.
- The onboard charger allows the TB20e to be charged using 95v – 265v single phase power.
- An available offboard charger will charge the TB20e using 408v to 552v three phase power.

Function and Efficiency
- All operational controls such as key switch, speed control, joysticks, blade, and travel levers are the same as the diesel powered TB216.
- A standard long arm provides the operator with a wider working range and dig depth while the thumb mount enables a thumb to be installed easily enhancing the machines capability.
- Load sensing, two speed travel will shift from low torque/high speed mode to high torque/low speed automatically when turning, pushing, or traveling up an incline.

Compact Design
- A retractable undercarriage and blade allow the operator to work in applications with limited access.
- Easily move the TB20e from one jobsite to another.

Operator Focused
- All operational controls such as key switch, speed control, joysticks, blade, and travel levers are the same as the diesel powered TB216.
- A High definition, multifunction color monitor allows the operator to view machine vitals and performance levels as they work.
- EH joystick controls are low effort and precise.
- The ISO/SAE pattern change is accessed via the monitor panel enabling the operator to set the TB20e quickly and easily to their preferred operating pattern.
- The suspension seat and adjustable armrests ensure operator comfort throughout the workday.
- A spacious, open floor area provides more foot space and makes it easier to enter and exit the machine.

Excellent Protection
- Top mounted boom cylinder and hydraulic lines that are routed through the boom and arm delivers exceptional protection from jobsite hazards.
- Body integrity is due to all steel construction of the TB20e which provides greater rigidity and strength and protects key components from damage.
- A heavy-duty counterweight protects vital components from damage.
- Cushioned cylinders improve longevity by reducing shock and they reduce felt recoil to the operator for greater comfort.
- Triple flange track rollers improve track life by providing greater support of the track system, and they maintain multiple contact points during operation reducing the risk of de-tracking.

Maintenance
- Reduced maintenance intervals ensure more uptime which enhances the bottom line.
- Greasing the work equipment daily is easy to perform with all grease points highlighted in yellow and run down one side of the machine.
