Ground Breaking Backhoe

Aaron Montford’s modern backhoe redesign features a more stable platform with an adjustable profile as well as higher arm reach and better maneuverability with four wheel steering capability. The most significant update is a side mounted retractable telescopic shovel arm that allows for increased range of motion and more stable digging without moving the entire machine. Newer technologies include a ground penetrating sonar system built directly into the shovel to prevent underground pipe and cable damage.

Amazing Excavating

This backhoe design features modern ergonomic and safety enhancements but retains the iconic yellow and black, heavy-duty aesthetic of classic construction vehicles. The primary feature is a two-part, articulated arm that collapses snugly against the side of the machine, making it easier to transport and safer to move when the boom is not in use. The electric digger is powered by 4 independent, in-wheel motors that give the operator more control.

Other advancements include a redesigned front loader and bucket with a unique placement within the hood that doesn’t obstruct visibility and a 3D camera system for an enhanced and more controlled perspective similar to augmented reality.
