Would anyone have information on "macmoter" earthmoving machinery, an acronym for earth-moving machinery, a small but important Italian manufacturer? The company founded in 1969, the MACMOTER, with its factory in Modigliana (FC) not far from Bologna, was taken over in 1978 by Mr. A.J. Häringer and from his company Haba Finanz. Thanks to the brilliant intuitions of the new management, the company had a remarkable growth that led to the birth of another factory in Silandro, in the province of Bolzano. In the 80s, always looking for a growing improvement, the production cycles of the two plants were equipped with ultramodern assembly lines, welding robots and plasma cutting equipment, which ensure a high capacity and production quality. this article wants to be a tribute to a great Italian brand that unfortunately leaves us sin!… The company's production was as follows: Backhoes - 3200T backhoe Depth of Digging Max 3200mm Weight: 900 Kg Mini Excavators - from 1.5 to 5 tons M1-MINE 360 ° Hydraulic Excavator Hydraulic Mini Excavator 360 ° from 12 KW / 16 HP (with compressed air engine) Weight: 1850 Kg Made with anti-explosion characteristics for use in underground mines MINIROPA M1S 360 ° Hydraulic Excavator Mini Excavator with rubber tracks 13.2 KW / 18 HP Weight: 1500 ÷ 1700 Kg MINIROPA M2S 360 ° Hydraulic Excavator Mini excavator with rubber tracks from 18.4 KW / 25 HP Weight: 2000 ÷ 2200 Kg MINIROPA M3S 360 ° Hydraulic Excavator Mini Excavator with rubber tracks from 20 KW / 27CV Weight: 3200 ÷ 3400 Kg MINIROPA M5S 360 ° Hydraulic Excavator Mini excavator with 31.5 KW / 42.5 HP rubber and steel tracks Weight: 4700 ÷ 5000 Kg Compact blades - from 2 to 2.8 tons CASTORO 35 Servo-driven compact four-wheel drive shovel Compact shovel with 32 KW / 43.5 HP Weight: 2700 2700 ÷ 2800 Kg CASTOR 45 Servo-driven compact four-wheel drive shovel Compact shovel with 32 KW / 43.5 HP Weight: 2700 ÷ 2800 Kg CASTOR 48 Servo-driven compact four-wheel drive shovel Compact shovel with 32 KW / 43.5 HP Weight: 2700 ÷ 2800 Kg Chargers - from 6.3 to 20 tons L6C Hydrostatic loader 56 KW / 76 HP Hydrostatic crawler shovel Weight: 6.35 tons Bucket Capacity: 0.8m3 LC100 Hydrostatic loader 74 KW / 100 HP Hydrostatic crawler shovel Weight: 7.4 tons Bucket capacity: 1.0 m3 LC150 Hydrostatic loader 125 KW / 170 HP Hydrostatic crawler shovel Weight: 15.9 tons Bucket capacity: 2.0 m3 Independent and oscillating carriages with hydraulic locking LC200 Hydrostatic loader 155 KW / 210 HP Hydrostatic crawler shovel Weight: 20 ton Bucket capacity: 2.6 m3 Independent and oscillating carriages with hydraulic locking Dozer - from 5 to 14.5 tons D6C Hydrostatic Dozer Power: 56 KW / 76 HP Weight: 5.6 tons Blade capacity: 1.20m3 DI50M Hydrological Dozer for port works 60 KW / 81 HP hydrostatic dozer Weight: 5000 Kg (special version for working in port within merchant ships) D70M Hydrostatic Dozer 62 KW / 83 HP hydrostatic dozer Weight: 7.3 to 7.9 tons D80M Hydrostatic Dozer 69 KW / 93 HP hydrostatic dozer Weight: 8.7 to 9.4 ton D100M Hydrostatic Dozer 82 KW / 110 HP hydrostatic dozer Weight: 9.6 to 10.4 tons Agricultural Tractors - from 4.8 to 5.1 tons WTX Hydro-static Agricultural Tractor Multi-purpose tractor, chopped, suitable for agricultural, fruit and vegetable and horticulture applications.

some mechanical shovels Macmoter LE5C
Regarding the track loaders, I believe there was once made an LE8 & later an LE9, both of these had engines at the front of the vehicle. Later the LE9 was replaced by the rear engine LC100 I think Sadly a huge snowfall destroying the factory roof was the final straw for the company. Is there anyone offering parts or rebuilding of the track shovels (as there are men rebuilding old Kamo Machines) ? I understand the track systems were made by Berco, & that there are spares for both rubber & steel track. My worry would be sourcing drive motors or variable pumps if these parts failed, I think they would have been a bought in component. I have never operated a Macmoter loader but heard good things of their build quality, this company was the last maker of a small conventional track loader, apart from the very small & not well made Dongfeng Chinese machines
grazie per il cortese intervento e le notizie aggiuntive, se qualche altro amico ha avuto altre notizie o foto o altro materiale informativo, lo invito a scrivere e ad intervenire grazie ancora ?????
I found this company offering to rebuild pumps & drive motors for Macmoter http://www.macmoter-spareparts.com/ division of Kolben I remember seeing the LE9 on the website about 2002. Perhaps a couple of years later this went to a rear engine model
thank you for your valuable intervention and your additional information, we will certainly treasure it, if you had any other information or photos I invite you to participate in the discussion thanks again
