ZX130-5G

More Production with Less Fuel

8% Reduction in Fuel Consumption, 4% Increase in Production

New ZAXIS is a fuel-thrifty excavator that can reduce fuel consumption by 8% while increase production by 4%, compared to the precedent ZX120-1, thanks to the HIOS III hydraulic system and engine control system, thereby reducing CO2 emissions.

More Fuel Reduction in the ECO mode

The ECO mode, a new economical mode, gives high productivity with less fuel and can cut fuel consumption by 14% compared to the PWR mode.

Operating speed increases with less fuel consumption thanks to the HIOS III hydraulic system, developed by industry-leading hydraulic technologies and a wealth of experience. Actuators work quickly by boom weight, without needing a regenerative circuit and pressure oil.

*Human & Intelligent Operation System

Arm roll-in speed increases by combined flow from arm and boom cylinders through regenerative valves for productive excavation.

Arm speed increases by boom weight during boom lowering, without needing pressure oil from a pump. That is, arm circuit flow is increased for higher arm speed, allowing for quick loading of a dump truck and positioning of the front

The Power Boost allows the operator to surge 5% more digging force for powerful excavation by pressing its button on the control lever

The traction force is increased by 15%, allows powerful traveling on rough ground.

The Auto Power Lift mode, which automatically surge lifting force by 6% when needed, allows for powerful lifting of buried concrete pipes or sheathing sheets

Pursuits of Performance and Durability

Hitachi has earned praise for technological prowess and product performance around the world. R&D Division has a track record – including excellent design, stress analysis expertise using CAE system, and abundant production data base. What’s more, a large-scale durability test field (427 hm2) allows for a series of stringent testing of new machines. Production Division strives to automatize production processes, including robotic welding, machining, painting, assembling and transferring.

This engine has a track record showing impressive durability at countless tough job sites around the world. The engine - associated with a rugged design, a direct fuel injection system and an elaborate governor goes green, and complies with EU Stage II and US EPA Tier 2 emissions regulations. The cooling system well keeps the engine cool.

The cooling fan is improved to cool the engine more efficiently.

The ample-capacity intercooler and turbocharger help yield a whopping 67 kW (90 HP) output for higher production in shorter job schedule

The boom top and boom foot brackets frame side are reinforced with thickened high-tensile steel, which incorporate steel bushings to enhance durability. Arm cylinder and boom cylinders (rod extend ends) cushion shocks at stroke ends to cut noise and extend service life.

Joint pins at the front attachment are tightly fit to reduce jolt and sound. The arm-bucket joint is protected by WC thermal spraying on its contact surfaces to reduce wear and jolt. New-type HN bushings, utilized on joint pins, retain grease inside for longer greasing intervals. A reinforced resin thrust plate, provided at front attachment joints, helps reduce wearing noise

The X-beam frame is made monolithically with fewer welds for higher rigidity and durability. Idler brackets and travel motor brackets are both thickened for added durability.

The upperstructure frame is reinforced with the proven D-section skirt to increase rigidity against damage by obstacles. The door catch is improved to shut the door tightly, reducing door rattling

No Compromise on Operator Comfort

You'll feel comfortable and confident, with plenty of leg space and excellent visibility when entering the cab. The new compact console gives more leg space. The new door pillar is shifted rearward by 70 mm to widen an entry space for easy access. A new LED room light, interlocked with the door, turns on when the door opens. The front window is easily removed and stored overhead using slide rails. The overhead window is openable for ventilation. Lots more air vents for air conditioner are located strategically for uniform air circulation inside the cab. The control panel and control levers are arranged within easy reach of the operator. AM/FM radio and AUX port (optional) for a mobile music player are available for a long work day with less fatigue. All these designs focus on operator comfort.

The luxury cloth seat is fitted with a headrest and arm rests for operator comfort. The seat can be adjusted in multiple ways, sliding and reclining, to suit operator’s size and preferences. The seat can slide rearward by 40 mm more for added leg space. The air suspension seat with a heat pad is optional.

The robust cab, meeting the OPG (Top Guard Level 1), protects the operator from falling objects. The pilot control shut-off lever is provided with a neutral engine start system that permits engine starting only when the pilot control shut-off lever is in Lock position.

New, Easy-to-Use Multifunction Monitor

The new multi-language, multifunction monitoring system comprises a 7-inch highresolution color monitor and a multifunction controller. The monitor allows the operator to check varying operating variables: coolant temperature, fuel level, work mode, full-auto air conditioner, AM/FM radio, rear view monitor camera (optional), maintenance support, and attachment flow adjustment. Menu items can be selected and adjusted by a multifunction controller on the control panel. A new rear view monitor camera always displays the view behind the machine

Simplified Maintenance

A dust-proof net, provided at the front of radiator, can be easily removed and cleaned with compressed air.

Service points are concentrated inside left and right covers that are readily accessible from ground level for convenient servicing and inspection, including water draining from the fuel tank, replenishment of coolant, and replacement of filters. The fuel tank is anti-corrosion coated on its inside, and has a large cleaning port at the bottom. These wise designs effectively keep fuel clean, and ease servicing. Handrails are provided at convenient locations for easy riding on the upperstructure. Plenty slip-resistant plates are located for safe maintenance.

Side frame tops of the undercarriage are sloped to let muck slide away. Track adjuster greasing ports are repositioned for easier lubrication, and well protected from muck packing

Service intervals are long enough to slash maintenance costs
