Develon DX55R-7 5.5T Mini Excavator

More information about Develon DX55R-7 5.5T Mini Excavator

The Develon DX55R-7 is designed for contractors who need strong digging and lifting performance but still want the manoeuvrability of a compact excavator.
With an operating weight of approximately 5.7 tonnes, a reduced tail swing design and a maximum digging depth of around 3.63 metres, the DX55R-7 is a versatile machine for construction, civil and earthmoving projects across Adelaide and South Australia.

Reduced Tail Swing for More Working Flexibility
The DX55R-7’s reduced tail swing makes it easier to operate where space around the machine is limited.
An increased counterweight provides additional stability, while the machine’s offset digging capability helps operators work effectively alongside structures and in confined areas.
It’s well suited to:

Residential and commercial construction
Civil and infrastructure projects
Trenching and drainage
Utility installation
Roadside excavation
Landscaping and retaining walls
Site preparation and earthmoving
Working close to buildings and other obstacles

Develon Turbocharged Power
The DX55R-7 is powered by the Develon D18 turbocharged diesel engine, producing 47.1 hp net at 2,200 rpm.
With up to 9,766.5 lbf of bucket digging force and 6,150.9 lbf of arm digging force, there’s plenty of capability for harder ground, deeper excavation and demanding day-to-day contracting work.

Reach Further and Dig Deeper
A maximum digging depth of approximately 3,630 mm gives the DX55R-7 the working range required for deeper trenches, drainage and utility projects.
Maximum reach at ground level is approximately 5,940 mm, providing operators with greater flexibility without constantly repositioning the machine.

Comfortable, Familiar Cabin
The DX55R-7 cabin takes design cues from Develon’s larger excavators, giving operators a comfortable and familiar working environment.
Cabin features include:

Enclosed operator environment
Powerful air conditioning
Comfortable operator seating
Easy-to-use controls
Excellent visibility around the machine
Control layout inspired by larger Develon excavators

For contractors spending long days in the machine, these features can make a noticeable difference.
