JCB Introduces Compact and Powerful Agri Telescopic Handler for Livestock Farms

In a significant development for the agricultural machinery sector, JCB has unveiled its latest offering - the JCB Loadall 530-60 AGRI Super. This compact telescopic handler, with a three-tonne lift capacity and a 6.0-meter lift height, is tailored to meet the specific needs of livestock farms, particularly those with narrow aisles and passages. Designed to excel in challenging environments, such as pig and poultry units, this new addition to the JCB Loadall series packs a punch with its impressive performance and productivity features.

The heart of the JCB Loadall 530-60 AGRI Super is its 4.8-liter Stage V emissions-compliant JCB DieselMAX engine. This powerhouse delivers peak outputs of 97kW (130hp) and 550Nm of torque, ensuring that the machine can handle a wide range of tasks on the farm. The addition of a new two-speed hydrostatic transmission enhances its capabilities further, resulting in a remarkable 25% increase in dynamic tractive effort compared to its predecessor, the 527-58 AGRI Plus. This boost in power is particularly valuable for tasks like clearing litter from chicken sheds, where productivity is crucial.

One standout feature of this new telescopic handler is its adaptability to different working conditions. For indoor tasks with limited vertical space, the JCB Loadall 530-60 AGRI Super, with its overall height of just 2.0 meters (on the 20-inch tire option), provides ample clearance to operate beneath poultry house feeders and drinkers during cleaning operations. On the other hand, for outdoor work on muddy and uneven surfaces, the machine is available with 24-inch tires to maximize ground clearance and traction.

The JCB Loadall 530-60 AGRI Super also incorporates a host of smart features, including regenerative hydraulics for fast yet controlled boom lowering, the Smooth Ride System for boom suspension, hydraulic cylinder damping at the boom-end, and bucket shake with minimal control input. These enhancements not only boost efficiency but also make the operator's job more comfortable.

Moreover, JCB has gone the extra mile by including several previously optional features as standard on this model. This elevates its equipment level close to that of JCB's larger Loadall telehandlers, offering livestock producers a compact yet highly productive machine for daily tasks in and around their agricultural buildings.

With the introduction of the JCB Loadall 530-60 AGRI Super, JCB continues to innovate and address the specific needs of the agricultural sector, providing farmers with powerful and versatile machinery to enhance their operations.

For livestock farmers seeking a nimble and high-performance solution for their daily agricultural tasks, the JCB Loadall 530-60 AGRI Super promises to be a game-changer in terms of productivity and efficiency.
