Boost your productivity with up to 20% more engine power and 10% higher fuel efficiency. With an onboard weighing system for perfect loads and a Smart Breaker that saves wear and tear, you get more than just muscle. You get more dependable output, fewer unplanned stops, and greater operational certainty to keep the job running.
Safety isn't just about protecting the crew, but also about protecting the timeline. The 9 Series makes hazard prevention stronger with surround-view Smart AVM, radar-based human detection, and virtual wall boundaries. If something gets too close, the E-Stop system reacts instantly. Fewer incidents mean fewer interruptions and better workflow continuity.
Step into a cab where comfort meets command. Dual-screen control, customizable ambient lighting, and next-gen joysticks create an operator’s dream cockpit. Smart Control 2D and Machine Guidance 2D take the guesswork out of digging.
And with predictive health monitoring and 1,000-hour maintenance intervals, you’ll spend more time working and less time servicing.
Even the most robust machines require a dependable support system. From proactive remote monitoring to a dealer network built for fast response, Develon is designed to protect you against disruptions. We are here to ensure the project stays under control, no matter what happens on site.
Develon is redefining smart integration in construction with its next-generation 9 Series range of crawler excavators. These powerful machines are now fully compatible with Trimble Earthworks 3D systems, allowing operators to upgrade from 2D to 3D functionality without replacing or modifying existing hardware.
This unified control approach gives users the flexibility of both 2D and 3D systems in a single, cohesive platform — improving both productivity and safety. Thanks to the controller of the 9 Series, managing communication between internal and external systems, 3D upgrades are now faster, simpler, and more cost-efficient.
By combining its in-house control technology with leading third-party 3D solutions, Develon aims to expand the 9 Series ecosystem even further, bringing more connectivity, flexibility, and intelligence to construction sites worldwide.
Upgrade your workflow with the Leica MC1 3D machine control system — now available for all Develon 9 Series crawler excavators. The easy-to-install kit integrates seamlessly with Develon’s 2D features, such as virtual wall and Advanced Lift Assist, so you can dig smarter, faster, and with greater precision.
At the core of every 9 Series machine is an open control architecture that enables real-time communication between onboard sensors and Leica’s 3D technology. This deep integration delivers the benefits of 3D automation without losing the intuitive performance of Develon’s proven 2D systems.
