The new machine features:
- JCB EcoMAX engine meets Stage IV/Tier 4 Final emissions without a DPF
- 3,200kg lift capacity with a 5.2m lift height
- Four-speed Powershift transmission
- Articulated steer wheeled loader chassis
- Durable bronze graphite bushes extend chassis pivot and boom greasing intervals
Lifting performance
The TM320 – which sits alongside the existing TM320 Wastemaster - has a maximum 3,200kg lift capacity, which is available to a full lift height of 5.2m as well as from ground level. It delivers a maximum 1,750kg of lift capacity at full forward reach of 2.95m ahead of the front wheels. This combination of lift and reach performance makes the TM320 highly versatile, ideal for general lift and place applications on a construction site, or for re-handling in a concrete batching plant or smaller quarry operation.
The TM320 is powered by a 4.4-litre version of the award-winning JCB EcoMAX engine, developing 93kW (125hp). The EcoMAX engine meets EU Stage IV / US Tier 4 Final emissions compliance using JCB's highly-efficient selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system. There is no requirement for a costly diesel particulate filter (DPF) to compromise the engine installation and potentially add to machine servicing costs.
JCB Chief Innovation and Growth Officer Tim Burnhope: “This is a proven solution that we introduced on our Loadall telescopic handlers for Europe earlier this year. It's a very compact installation that makes efficient use of AdBlue, without detracting from the engine's excellent power, torque and fuel consumption characteristics.”
The engine, through a four-speed JCB Powershift transmission, offers a maximum speed of 40kph. A load-sensing hydraulic system, with an output of 140-litres/min, ensures maximum performance and efficiency. The Powershift transmission can be operated in automatic mode or manually, using a traditional left hand lever, by operating the shift and forward-reverse selector switches mounted on the Servo joystick.
A hydraulic reversible cooling fan option is available, that provides a choice of reversing intervals to suit different situations, as well as manual activation to purge the cooling pack of dust and debris when necessary. The TM320 also gets cylinder end damping as standard, to refine the operating experience when the telescopic section of the boom is fully extended and when the boom is retracted and lowered. JCB's Auto Smooth Ride System boom suspension is available as an option.
A full colour instrument display is one of several new features in the spacious operator's cab, providing information and warnings in a clearer at-a-glance format. Daily checks for engine oil, coolant and washer fluid levels can be completed from the driver's seat during engine start-up, saving time and ensuring that essential checks are carried out as a matter of routine. The machine is also equipped with hard wearing bronze graphite bushes, extending the chassis pivot and boom greasing interval to 500 hours.
A rear view camera with colour display can be supplied, and an immobiliser key option complements the theft deterrence provided by JCB LiveLink.
