The KV22 is a 1.85-ton compact excavator specifically designed for small-scale projects such as orchard cultivation, municipal maintenance, and indoor construction. With customized configurations, high adaptability, and strong practicality, it has become the preferred equipment for lightweight construction scenarios. Its core configuration strikes a balance between performance and adaptability, precisely matching the operational needs of different users.
The core configuration of the KV22 is highly targeted. It offers the choice of two engines: Leidong 380 and Kubota D902. The rated power ranges from 11.8kw to 18.1kw. The former is suitable for domestic conditions, robust, durable, and easy to maintain, while the latter combines international quality, stable power output, and lower fuel consumption. The hydraulic system is equipped with Taifeng piston pump and load-sensitive multi-way valve, with a working pressure of 19.5Mpa. The movements are gentle and the response is efficient, and it is paired with hydraulic safety lock and pilot handle, making the operation more precise. In terms of body functions, it is equipped with side swing of the boom, a 980-1280mm extendable chassis, and 1.8-4.0km/h high-low speed walking modes, achieving full adaptability in operation; in terms of protection, a roof is standardly equipped, and a driver's cabin can be optionally added. Meanwhile, the body is made of Q355 manganese steel, combined with three cast iron counterweights, providing stronger operational stability. The basic operating parameters of the equipment are impressive. The bucket capacity is 0.04m³, the maximum digging depth is 2324mm, the maximum digging height is 2771mm, and the minimum turning radius is only 1387mm. It can easily complete various precision operations.
Relying on high-quality configuration, KV22 has the following core advantages.
Strong space adaptability, with a telescopic chassis, side swing of the boom, and tailless design, it can operate flexibly in narrow spaces such as orchard greenhouses, indoor venues, and rural alleys without frequent machine relocation;
Combines operation convenience with practicality. The high and low speed modes can be freely switched. The low speed ensures stable operation, while the high speed enhances transfer efficiency. The option of roof/hood or cab can adapt to different weather conditions such as rain and high temperatures;
Durable and easy to maintain. The manganese steel body and cast iron counterweight can withstand wear in complex working conditions. The layout of core components is reasonable, and daily inspection and maintenance do not require professional tools, reducing usage costs;
Flexible power selection. The dual engine configuration can not only meet the cost-performance requirements of domestic small and medium-sized users, but also meet the quality requirements for export.
Overall, the KV22 small excavator is a cost-effective equipment that prioritizes practicality. Although it has some shortcomings in terms of intelligent configuration, its core power, hydraulic system, and body functions all meet the actual needs of small-scale projects. It balances operational performance, space compatibility, and usage costs. Whether it is individual growers, municipal maintenance teams, or small engineering teams, the KV22 can effectively replace manual labor, improve construction efficiency, and become a versatile partner for small-scale projects such as orchard excavation, indoor crushing, and municipal trenching.
