The Hyundai HX35Az mini excavator, recognized as a Red Dot Award winner in 2022 for its exceptional product design, exemplifies HD Hyundai’s commitment to producing world-class machinery.
This 4-ton class mini excavator combines cutting-edge technology with remarkable versatility, making it a preferred choice for applications in agriculture, land development, urban infrastructure, and more. Let’s explore the key features and innovations that make the Hyundai HX35Az truly special.
Key Features of the Hyundai HX35Az Excavator That Make it Special
Here are the major features of the HX35Az excavator, highlighting different aspects of the machine:
Performance
At the heart of the Hyundai HX35Az excavator is the efficient Kubota D1703 Tier-4 engine, offering 25 PS of gross power. This fuel-efficient engine provides the perfect balance of power and economy, delivering high performance with low fuel consumption and minimal noise.
Its advanced open-center hydraulic system allows for fast synchronization between the joystick and the Main Control Valve, resulting in smooth and responsive operation.
Additionally, the excavator’s impressive digging forces, with a bucket force of 3281 kgf and an arm crowd force of 1623 kgf, ensure it can handle even the toughest digging tasks with ease.
The longer arm of 1.6m allows the machine to reach longer distance and dig more with least repositioning.
Efficiency
The Hyundai HX35Az is designed with efficiency in mind, making it ideal for working in tight urban areas and other congested spaces. Its wide boom swing angle and zero tail swing allow the excavator to operate effectively in narrow environments like alleys, increasing productivity without sacrificing safety.
The Auto Idle feature optimizes fuel efficiency by reducing engine RPM when the equipment remains idle for 4 seconds, while the Auto Shift Travel Speed feature automatically adjusts travel speed for better torque when the machine is traveling uphill. Together, these features enhance fuel efficiency and work performance.
Convenience
Operator comfort and convenience are at the core of the HX35Az’s design. The premium operator cabin or canopy options are thoughtfully engineered to boost productivity. It offers adjustable seats, easily accessible joysticks, and well-placed pedals for maximum convenience.
The advanced 5-inch LCD digital cluster displays essential information such as fuel level, engine RPM, warning indicators, maintenance tracker, and other diagnostic parameters, while the centralized controls make operation intuitive and efficient.
Foldable pedals provide additional floor space, further improving operator comfort during long working hours.
Durability
The Hyundai HX35Az features a rugged upper and lower frame constructed from low-stress, high-strength steel, which is welded integrally to ensure long-term reliability. The boom and arm are reinforced with high-tensile steel bearings, giving them exceptional impact strength and durability.
Cylinder guards protect critical components like the boom, arm, and bucket cylinders from external damage, reducing the risk of downtime and costly repairs. The ROPS-certified cabin/canopy further adds to the machine’s durability, meeting ISO standards for safety and strength.
Safety
Safety is paramount in the HX35Az, featuring an Anti-theft System providing password-protected ignition that can be enabled always, at intervals or can be disabled by ESL mode setting. The machine also includes an additional bolted counterweight for added stability, especially in rough terrain or during heavy lifting operations.
The safety lever and emergency stop system prevent unintended machine movements, while the master switch disconnects the battery from the electrical system for enhanced safety during maintenance or idle periods. These features make the HX35Az a safe and reliable choice for operators working in challenging environments.
Easy Serviceability
HD Hyundai has made serviceability a breeze with the HX35Az, incorporating features that reduce downtime and make maintenance tasks easier. The fully accessible engine and hydraulic aggregates are easily reachable thanks to the fully open-type cowl, and daily checks can be performed at ground level.
The tilt cabin design allows for quick access to components like the swing motor, improving serviceability and reducing downtime. The 2-piece dozer hose design further enhances convenience, allowing for easy replacement of individual hoses if needed.
Final Thoughts
The Hyundai HX35Az stands out as a top-quality mini excavator, combining advanced features, robust performance, and industry-leading serviceability. With the longest hydraulic and engine service intervals in its class of 400 hours for engine service, 1,000 hours for hydraulic filter changes, and 5,000 hours for hydraulic oil changes it significantly reduces downtime.
Recognized with the prestigious Red Dot Award for best product design, the HX35Az reflects Hyundai’s commitment to innovation and quality. All this makes it a game-changer in industries ranging from urban infrastructure to agriculture and land development.
