Features & Benefits
On top of its EU certification, the Sunward SWE 20F-1, like all Sunward machines on the European market, is designed to meet European customer needs.
We chose the powerful Yanmar 3TNV80F-SSU engine for the new SWE 20F-1, known for its low fuel consumption, quiet operation, and consistent performance—even in high-altitude or demanding environments. Delivering 13.4 kW, this compact industrial diesel engine meets both EU Stage V and EPA Final Tier 4 standards. Perfectly matched with Sunward’s advanced hydraulic system, it ensures smooth, responsive operation across all applications—making it the ideal power unit for this next-generation, high-performance mini excavator.
All key components in the new Sunward SWE 20F-1 are carefully selected to ensure maximum performance and durability – from the trusted engine to the high-efficiency hydraulic system. Since hydraulics are the heart of any excavator, Sunward relies on premium manufacturers for the hydraulic pump, swing motor, and travel motor. Known for their compact design, reliability, and efficiency, these components provide smooth, responsive control and play a crucial role in the SWE 20F-1’s exceptional performance and long-term dependability.
The SWE20F-1’s extendable undercarriage – the track width can be extended from 990 mm to 1360 mm – provides sturdy stability, ensuring safe and comfortable operation in all kinds of job applications. The adjustable crawler track is ideal in confined areas or when greater stability is required.
The SWE 20F-1 delivers exceptional digging forces—over 22.7 kN on the bucket and 9.8 kN on the arm—placing it among the top performers in the 2-ton class. Its optimized boom and arm geometry, paired with a cylinder design focused on reach and efficiency, offers a maximum digging reach of over 3.8 meters and a digging depth of more than 2 meters, giving operators outstanding range and precision on any jobsite.
A mini excavator’s versatility begins with how easily it can be transported—and the new SWE 20F-1 goes beyond EU transport compliance. With a compact width of just 990 mm and a transport weight starting at 1 910 kg, it’s ideal for loading on a small trailer along with up to 3 buckets and a hydraulic breaker, keeping the total transport weight close to 2 tons. Equipped with an automatic slew lock and 4 easily accessible tie-down points integrated into the undercarriage, it ensures safe and secure transit. On site, the SWE 20F-1 adapts effortlessly to multiple tasks, thanks to 3 auxiliary hydraulic lines as standard—a rare feature in this class—complete with adjustable pressure and flow settings. This makes it compatible with a wide range of attachments, from breakers and augers to tilt buckets and grapples, right out of the factory.
Sunward is your smartest investment in reliability, performance and high ROI. Indeed, the SWE 20F-1’s expert design includes a well-thought-out selection of components that streamline operation and maintenance. Our design choices result in a machine that provides so many standard features, premium-brand key components, and capabilities at the right price.
And furthermore, Sunward’s own genuine spare parts are economical as well – and all of this best value for money is crowned by up to 5 years of warranty, standard for all Sunward products.
