DX160WE–7K

Electric Power That Means Business

The DX160WE-7K electric wheel excavator brings together performance, full-day electric operation, and the long-term business advantage of a quieter, cleaner, low-maintenance machine. Its LFP battery and efficient electric motor deliver stable torque and precise control, while near-silent operation unlocks new opportunities on urban sites and in regulated zones. Durable components, reduced service needs, and flexible charging support maximum uptime and predictable operating costs. Designed for ambitious fleets facing modern environmental standards and changing customer expectations, the DX160WE-7K enhances productivity, operator comfort, and long-term value — making it a true business driver, not just another excavator.

Full-Size Power, Zero Compromise

Experience full-scale performance with a 105 kW liquid-cooled permanent-magnet motor delivering the same digging force, precision, and responsiveness as its diesel counterpart. The high-capacity LFP battery provides up to 9 hours of operating time, powering top-class hydraulics (2 × 167 l/min) for smooth, consistent output throughout the workday. Fine swing and the Load Isolation System keep movements stable and controlled, reducing shocks and rocking so you stay productive and precise from the first cut to the last. Reinforced boom and arm structures and optimized hydraulic routing enhance long-term durability and protection.

Clean, Quiet, and Built for Urban Productivity

Operate confidently in noise-sensitive environments thanks to quiet electric operation and zero local emissions. Early-morning or late-night shifts become more practical and less disruptive, enabling longer working hours on urban sites. Rock-solid weight distribution, supported by the heavy LFP battery, delivers exceptional stability, while rear and right-side cameras, optional 360° AVM with radar detection, and anti-slip access points help protect operators and people around the machine at every moment.

Low Maintenance, High Value

With fewer moving parts and no need to service engine oil, fuel filters, or air pre-cleaners, downtime is significantly reduced. Convenient charging options — AC charging in 6/12 hours (63A/32A) or DC fast charging in as little as 2 hours — make daily operations simple and predictable. Comfort comes first in the DX160WE-7K cab, with a premium suspension seat (heated with optional cooling), improved ventilation, and a quiet, low-vibration environment that helps operators stay fresh all day. Add in switchable joystick steering and the 12" Develon Smart Touch display, and you get precise, effortless control that turns every shift into productive, high-value time.

Our electric wheel excavators are equipped with a safe LFP battery that delivers the right amount of power while remaining quiet and locally emission-free. Its design ensures reliable energy delivery throughout the workday, while convenient charging options make recharging simple and efficient. Operators benefit from a battery system that is both environmentally responsible and highly productive.

Quiet, Powerful, and Emission-Free Energy

Optimized weight distribution makes Develon electric wheel excavators exceptionally stable in all conditions, giving operators confidence and peace of mind. The heavy LFP battery helps maintain balance, enabling precise, safe operation on uneven or challenging surfaces and reducing the risk of tipping or unexpected movement.

Safety is enhanced with standard rear and right-side cameras that expand your view of the work area. For maximum visibility, the optional 360° all-around view camera (AVM) can be combined with radar detection, allowing operators to work more confidently around people, obstacles, and nearby traffic.

Advanced Visibility for Maximum Protection

The Automatic Digging Brake takes the effort out of stopping and starting. It holds the machine securely at zero speed without any manual input, giving you complete control and peace of mind. When you press the transmission pedal, it releases instantly, making work on slopes or during repetitive movements easier, safer, and less tiring.

Develon electric wheel excavators deliver solid and consistent performance comparable to conventional machines, so operators feel no compromise in power or control. The liquid-cooled permanent-magnet motor, powered by a high-capacity LFP battery, provides consistent torque for smooth operation across all tasks. Whether digging, lifting, or running attachments, these machines maintain reliable, diesel-level efficiency without emissions at the point of use.

The LFP battery provides up to 9 hours of non-idle operating time on a single charge, supporting a full workday. Flexible charging options—6/12 hours via AC or around 2 hours via DC fast charging—help ensure the machine is ready when you are. This powerful battery lets operators plan jobs more efficiently, reducing interruptions caused by charging.

Full-Day Runtime, Fast Turnaround Charging

With a hydraulic capacity of 2 × 167 l/min, DX160WE-7K wheel excavators provide the same digging and lifting power as its diesel counterpart. They can operate the same attachments and handle demanding applications with precision, giving you the flexibility to perform multiple tasks with one electric machine.

Fine swing and the Load Isolation System (LIS) help operators work more comfortably and efficiently. Fine swing reduces shocks at the start and end of swing movements, while LIS improves ride control and load stability when traveling. Together, these systems increase productivity, reduce operator fatigue, and maintain consistent performance—especially important on urban sites where smooth, controlled operation is essential.

With fewer moving parts than a traditional diesel machine, daily maintenance needs are reduced. There’s no need to check motor oil, engine filters, fuel filters, or air pre-cleaners, which minimizes service time and lowers the risk of unexpected downtime. This streamlined design ensures operators spend more time working and less time maintaining the machine.

Our electric wheel excavators are built for durability you can rely on. Reinforced boom and arm components, combined with improved hydraulic line routing, help protect the machine from damage. The result is fewer repairs, less downtime, and an excavator you can trust to perform consistently on tough jobs.

Large guard rails, anti-slip steps, and spacious platforms give you easy access to the upper structure, so inspections and servicing are quick and secure. This design reduces time spent on maintenance, keeps the machine productive, and lets you focus on the job with less stress and greater peace of mind.

The LFP battery of Develon electric wheel excavators is engineered for long-term reliability, with a chemistry known for stable performance and a long service life. Its robust design helps maintain capacity, supporting consistent runtime and dependable productivity throughout the machine’s life.
