ENGCON SETS NEW INDUSTRY STANDARD
AUTOMATIC QUICK HITCH FOR MACHINE FITTINGS
Interrested in knowing more about EC-Oil? By choosing your language down below you will be taken to your country page.
There is now an exclusive system available when you order a top hitch, tiltrotator and our DC2 control system: EC-Oil fully automatic hydraulic connection system is included as standard. In addition, all of our hydraulic tools now have EC-Oil as standard too! EC-Oil allows you to quickly and easily connect the tiltrotator to the machine hitch as well as hydraulic tools either directly or underneath the tiltrotator, without having to leave the cab.
A real benefit for you as a customer is that, because we make all of our own stuff, it’s designed to work together and we guarantee it end-to-end!
When you order an engcon machine hitch and tiltrotator with DC2 control system, EC-Oil blocks are supplied as standard between the machine hitch and the tiltrotator.
If you order an engcon hydraulic tool at the same time as the combination above, EC-Oil is fitted as standard in the tiltrotator’s quick hitch (from S45 and upwards)
All of engcon’s hydraulic tools with S45-S80 always include EC-Oil as a standard.
Please contact Engcon for more information.
EC-Oil is engcon‘s system for fully automatic connection of hydraulic tools. We provide you with a complete solution - everything from machine hitches, tiltrotators, control systems and attachments.
EC-Oil is designed for high reliability in demanding environments. It is designed to be used in engcon‘s intelligent hitch system with s-standard. The fully automatic quick hitch system can connect hydraulic tools at full system pressure. The proprietary oil and electrical connections are designed to withstand even the toughest of conditions that often exist around an excavator. The couplings are on of the market‘s most durable, proven by being tested to destruction at 1600 bar working pressure and repetitive cycling in harsh environments.
When you buy a tiltrotator from us, you always get the latest technology. Powerful and durable with maximum performance, both in terms of break-out and rotational forces.
All tiltrotators are designed for our fully proportional control system, DC2. All models from EC204 up are equipped with central lubrication, have a 45 degree tilt angle and hardened cylinders with check valves as standard.
From the EC209 and up, all tiltrotators are prepared for EC-Oil and GPS digging systems. It is also possible to choose a detachable gripper or sweeper-roller in a cassette form on specific hitches.
EC214 and up, all tiltrotators are available with a high flow swivel. The hydraulic motor is on the left side, where it is well protected and visible to the driver.
engcon‘s hydraulic attachments have EC-Oil as standard and are optimised to work with our tiltrotators. They form a system of tools that make the job quick, efficient and profitable.
EC-Oil has a unique and patented hoseless design with no electrical cables that move during the connection process. EC-Oil’s hydraulic, electric and central lubrication fittings connect together as the hitch closes. The parallel movement of the tool bracket relative to the hitch during the closing sequence guarantees a stress-free connection and means that there are no hoses or wires suffering fatigue, abrasion or degradation due to tight radii and repetitive strain. In addition, there is a mechanical protection that prevents the gate from being connected in the wrong direction, further reducing the risk of downtime. Thanks to the built-in pressure relief valve it is possible to change the desired tool at full system pressure.
engcon offers a wide range of tools and attachments, designed for your needs. The tools are made of high quality steel and designed for maximum flexibility and crack resistance. 500 Brinell wear and cutting steel is used liberally, together with Hardox reinforcement at the most vulnerable points to cope with extra loading.
With engcon’s automatic quick hitch system you can switch hydraulic tools without leaving your seat!
