A MECALAC REVOLUTION

Operators of Mecalac’s new Revotruck can now rotate the entire cab to keep their vision and focus on the job and a view of potential obstacles on the site. The exclusive chassis with central oscillation ensures stability and traction in all conditions. The infinite cab positions of the Revotruck open up visibility in all directions.

Setting the standards in safety, visibility, accessibility, ergonomics, mobility and stability, REVOTRUCK aims to buck this trend. With complete visibility in all directions, operators can reduce downtime for tricky manoeuvres and drastically lower the chance of incidents. Combining the best of both worlds, REVOTRUCK is a rear dump truck when carrying materials and a highly manoeuvrable site dumper –enabling the operator to face the skip – when loading and unloading.

Thanks to its unique design, operators benefit from unrestricted access to all four corners of the cab. This means you can enter and exit the machine quickly, easily and safely, regardless of the position of the operator station. Two load capacity options are available –a six-tonne and nine-tonne variant – ensuring suitability for almost every job site.

But while the design itself is truly revolutionary, so is the technology behind it. Rather than a manual process, the cab can be quickly and easily repositioned via a multidirectional joystick in seconds. What’s more, thanks to intelligent design, REVOTRUCK automatically adjusts its behaviour depending on cab position. By automatically switching gears and wheel steering, operators don’t need to worry about switching into reverse or mirror steering when travelling backwards.

In June, REVOTRUCK took home gold in the Engineering & Design category at the 2023 Plantworx Innovation Awards. The event celebrated innovative companies, products and services that have made a major industry impact over the past 12 months, with REVOTRUCK recognised as a market disruptor.

But that’s not all. REVOTRUCK was also crowned ‘best of the best’ at this year’s Red Dot Design Awards, impressing the judges with its successful design implementation and visual coherence, who commented: “No matter in which direction the cabin is turned and how the vehicle is currently standing or driving – REVOTRUCK conveys a homogeneous, compact appearance in every position.”

This adds to its finalist position at the Bauma Innovation Awards, Mechanical Engineering category, in 2022; alongside its success at the Potencia Awards for Construction, Public Works and Mining. REVOTRUCK was also awarded gold for the ‘light range’ category at the Chantiers de France & DLR Equipment Grands Prix.

Heath Davies, General Manager at Mecalac Construction Equipment UK, commented: “As a brand at the global forefront of compact equipment innovation, we continue to invest heavily in bringing groundbreaking new products to market. While REVOTRUCK will be manufactured at our UK manufacturing facility, we’ve already seen huge global demand, with construction professionals looking to invest in future-proof, safety-critical equipment for some of the world’s most innovative construction projects.

“We believe that REVOTRUCK will prove a real game changer for the compact equipment sector, thanks to its impressive safety credentials, performance figures and ability to maximise operator efficiencies. Highways professionals, in particular, will benefit from its unique capabilities and first-to-market design.”
