For industry professionals requiring heavy-lift performance in ultra-tight urban corridors, the ATLAS 160SWR Mobile Excavator is the ultimate compromise-free solution. Combining a compact swing-radius with a massive 19.7-tonne maximum operating weight, this machine is engineered to deliver the stability of a heavyweight unit with the agility of a much smaller specialist model. Whether performing heavy-duty lifts on busy arterial roads or excavating deep utility trenches in residential areas, the 160SWR provides the “compact-power” balance that modern civil engineering demands.

Key Features of the ATLAS 160SWR

• Massive Vertical Reach: Offering an impressive 6.2-metre digging depth, the 160SWR provides superior underground access, making it the perfect choice for deep-drainage and large-scale foundation works.
• Intelligent Space Management: The short-tail swing design allows for high-performance slewing in restricted environments, enabling operators to work safely alongside live traffic or against structural boundaries.
• Exceptional Lifting Capacity: Engineered with a reinforced heavy-duty chassis, the machine maintains uncompromised load stability, allowing for the safe handling of heavy concrete pipes and steel trench boxes.
• Optimised Fuel Economy: The 130 HP (95 kW) engine is precision-tuned to provide high-torque output at lower RPMs, ensuring peak digging performance while significantly reducing hourly fuel consumption.
• Advanced Load Balancing: With an operating weight reaching up to 19,700 kg, the machine utilizes its mass to provide a rock-solid digging platform, minimising vibration and increasing operator comfort during intensive shifts.

Versatility for Constrained Workzones

The ATLAS 160SWR is a master of urban versatility, excelling in applications such as metropolitan road widening, bridge maintenance, and inner-city redevelopment. The high-visibility cab and integrated camera systems provide the panoramic awareness necessary for safely managing multi-crew environments and pedestrian-adjacent sites. The 160SWR eliminates the “over-swing” risks common with traditional machines, allowing site supervisors to plan more efficient work zones. Its ability to travel between sites under its own power at road speeds ensures that high-priority utility repairs are completed with minimal logistics delays.

Why Choose the ATLAS 160SWR?

The ATLAS 160SWR Short-Radius Excavator is the premier choice for businesses that refuse to sacrifice power for size. It is a robust, solid, and highly maneuverable asset designed to solve the complexities of modern infrastructure projects, providing the deep-reach capabilities and surgical precision required for the most challenging urban specifications.
