The development of the electric STAAD 17W mobile excavator and STAAD 23LCR crawler excavator is the result of a process that began years ago. Based on our experience with electrification, we saw that the market needed excavators designed from the ground up for emission-free operation. At the same time, we noticed that operators and clients needed a machine that better aligns with daily practice.
The BouwMachines Knowledge Day is just around the corner, and to get you in the mood, one of the BouwMachines Knowledge Day Premium Partners is highlighted every week. Below is the story of Staad.

Over the past few years, we have gained extensive knowledge in electrifying conventional excavators. That technical expertise, combined with the insights we gathered from the market, formed the basis for the development of our own excavators.
By developing and producing excavators ourselves, we have complete freedom to make choices regarding performance, battery capacity, charging options, comfort, and ease of use.
The reactions to the electric STAAD 17W mobile excavator are very positive. What operators particularly appreciate is the comfort, power, and quietness with which the machine operates. As soon as people test it, they immediately notice the benefits of working electrically. In addition, we receive many positive comments on the extensive standard equipment. Think of a seat with heating, cooling, and massage functions, 360-degree cameras, special lighting, and haptic feedback in the joysticks.
The combination of performance and ease of use is also well received. Many operators are surprised that an electric excavator can perform the same tasks as a conventional excavator, while operating more comfortably and emission-free.
The operator's opinion is important, because good operators are scarce and often have a major influence on the choice of new equipment. That is why we consciously considered their wishes during the development of our machines. In this way, we help our customers not only with a pleasant workplace, but also with attracting and retaining skilled professionals.

The electric STAAD 23LCR crawler excavator is currently in full development. The results of the first test phases are very positive, and the first production parts have now been delivered to our production site in Harlingen. With this, we are taking an important step in the further development of the machine.
The introduction of the STAAD 17W and STAAD 23LCR is not an endpoint for us, but rather the beginning. In the coming years, we will focus on further expanding our product range. In doing so, we are looking at electric crawler excavators in other weight classes, among other things, so that we can offer a suitable emission-free solution for an increasing number of applications.
During the BouwMachines Knowledge Day, we demonstrate how machines, power supply, and charging infrastructure come together in a single total solution for the construction site. We present our electric STAAD 23LCR crawler excavator, equipped with the Powerbox 400. Additionally, we showcase the Powerbox 300, a power solution that connects to the STAAD 17W mobile excavator.
With this presentation, we want to showcase not only our 23LCR crawler excavator but also demonstrate that our Powerboxes are more than just a battery for electric excavators. They can also be deployed as a mobile power supply on the construction site, for example for site cabins, tools, charging points, and other electrical equipment. In combination with the accompanying Fieldmasters (fast chargers and inverters), it is even possible to power an entire construction site emission-free.
The Construction Machinery Knowledge Day
On Wednesday, December 2, the 11th edition of the BouwMachines Knowledge Day will be organized at the Bouw & Infrapark in Harderwijk. The theme of the day, which focuses on the exchange of knowledge and practical experiences, is: 'Smartly shifting into top gear: Efficiency, energy, safety, and effectiveness on the emission-free construction site.'
Get inspired by real-world stories, discover smart innovations, and engage in conversation with fellow entrepreneurs. This is the day to share knowledge, gain ideas, and look ahead together. Register here .
