Case CE Adds the CX85E and CX90E to its Midi Excavator Lineup

Case CX85E midi excavator

Case Construction Equipment has expanded its midi excavator lineup with two new machines: the CX85E and CX90E. These compact, feature-packed midi excavators are designed to bolster productivity, and are ideal for construction crews, landscapers and rental companies.

“Meeting modern worksite challenges takes innovative equipment that can help crews achieve more with less,” said Terry Dolan, head of CNH Construction Brands, North America. “Listening to what contractors need is what drives our ingenuity-obsessed mindset, and it’s why we built our newest Case midi excavators to deliver big-machine performance in a smart, space-efficient design. It’s all about empowering crews to be more productive than ever in the most challenging environments.”

With the Case CX85E and CX90E midi excavators, operators get heavyweight performance in compact, space-saving dimensions. These machines feature a robust 72-hp engine so there’s ample power for aggressive digging, land clearing or using high-performance attachments. The CX85E has an operating weight of 19,467 lbs, and the CX90E’s operating weight is 20,305 lbs.

From the press release:

Both machines come with a comprehensive hydraulic package with standard auxiliary, drain-to-tank functionality and quick coupler circuits to drive a wide array of advanced attachments. These features eliminate the need for aftermarket modifications and make these machines well-suited for tackling various tasks across diverse jobsites — whether running hammers, rippers, augers, thumbs, buckets or grapples.

The new midi excavators are also designed to maximize output in confined work zones where larger excavators can’t fit but would otherwise be right for the job. The fixed-boom CX85E delivers maximum performance in tight spaces with zero tailswing, which allows operators to work up against walls, fences or other structures. The optimized swing boom on the CX90E provides 180 degrees of movement with superior reach and dig depth for trenching and confined-space excavation.

More on the Case CX85E and CX90E

According to Case, the CX85E and CX90E midi excavators take an operator-first approach to design, offering a wide range of features that boost comfort and control. Some of these features include:

  • A spacious cab, complete with automatic climate control and a standard heated air-suspension seat
  • Great visibility and a 7-in. LCD touchscreen display to improve situational awareness
  • Ergonomic joystick-controls to reduce operator fatigue
  • Adjustable electro-hydraulic controls, so operators can set lift and tilt responsiveness to match specific jobsite requirements or operator preferences
  • Options for full rubber tracks, steel tracks in multiple widths or steel tracks with rubber pads
  • An optional LED light package to maximize visibility for working day or night

The company also pointed out that the CX85E and CX90E were designed with features to simplify maintenance. For example, a tilting cab gives operators fast and easy access to hydraulic components, while wide compartments, swing-out side panels and ground-level service points make routine maintenance and daily checks more efficient.

“Our goal at Case is to help increase efficiency, productivity and profitability for contractors with swift, smooth and smart machines that meet today’s evolving jobsite conditions,” said Dolan. “The latest additions to our midi excavator lineup are a big step forward to provide crews with the power, versatility and precision they need to succeed in an increasingly competitive industry.”
