Case has introduced seven new models of E Series excavators including two in new size classes. The company says these new excavators represent an enhanced level of hydraulic performance and precision, greater engine power and responsiveness, extended service intervals, and greater connectivity for streamlined fleet management and service.

The new offering also includes one of the industry’s most expansive the OEM-fit 2D and 3D machine control systems to simplify the adoption and expansion of precision excavation solutions.
The seven new models:
- CX140E: 75 kW, 13,100 kg
- CX170E: 89 kW, 17,400 kg
- CX190E: 89 kW, 18,600 kg
- CX220E: 119 kW, 23,600 kg
- CX260E: 132 kW, 25,800 kg
- CX300E: 190 kW, 30,400 kg
- CX365E SR: 150 kW, 35,600 kg.
The new line-up replaces five key models in the Case excavator line-up, while also introducing two all-new models: the CX190E and the CX365E SR. Dozer blade and long reach models are also available in select configurations, and certain D Series excavator models will remain in the CASE product offering, next-generation versions of those machines will be introduced later.
One of the most noticeable enhancements in the cab of the new Case E Series excavators is the 10-inch LCD display that provides greater access and visibility to cameras, machine data and controls. This includes the ability to display rear and sideview cameras at all times while still accessing machine data and controls, ensuring optimal visibility and jobsite awareness.
This includes the popular optional Case Max View display for even greater visibility and safer operation that provides 270 degrees of visibility around the machine.
The new display allows for excellent control customization with five configurable buttons that can be set to each operator’s most used functions including, but not limited to fuel consumption, machine information, auxiliary hydraulics and emissions controls.
The new Hydraulic Flow Control Balance for the hydraulic system, as well as the new attachment controls, are also controlled through this display.
Case has also expanded on the operator comfort and ergonomics with a new suspended operator station that locks the seat and console together so that, no matter the size of the operator, they have the same experience in terms of orientation to the armrests and the controls. Both the console and the armrest can now be further adjusted to meet operator preference.
The addition of new FPT Industrial engines throughout the product line, along with new enhancements to the hydraulic systems, provide greater power and performance.
Four new work modes (SP for Super Power, P for Power, E for Eco and L for Lifting) are available to be set in a range of up to 10 throttle settings allowing operators to dial in performance to their work, and the new Eco mode drives lower fuel consumption by as much as 18% compared with previous CaSE excavators.
New hydraulic priority capabilities allow the operator to set machine performance and responsiveness to their liking. Case calls this Hydraulic Flow Control Balance, and it allows the operator to set arm in, boom up and swinging flow to their liking.
Attachment use has also been improved with the ability to adjust hydraulic flows based on specific attachment types through the new display, and to set maximum overflow for each attachment for optimal attachment performance.
Case E Series excavators come with Case ProCare: a three-year CASE SiteWatch telematics subscription, a three-year/3,000-hour full-machine factory warranty, and a three-year/2,000-hour planned maintenance contract.
