Details of the SK34SR-7 and SK39SR-7 were released in February, but KCME said it was looking forward to giving customers the first opportunity to see them up close.

Kobelco says mini excavators are vital to Kobelco’s overall product line-up, and that the introduction of the SK34SR-7 and SK39SR-7 demonstrates how the Japanese manufacturer is continually developing its mini excavator technology.

Since the company established its first official dealer there in 2016, Italy has grown to be an important market for KCME, which now has a boasts authorised dealers including on the islands of Sicily and Sardinia.

SaMoTer usually takes place every three years, but this year’s event is the first since 2017 after the scheduled 2020 show was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. More than 80,000 people attended the 2017 event.
