Focused on safety, control, efficiency, and comfort, these upgrades are targeted at diverse applications, including landscape architecture, municipal engineering, agriculture and animal husbandry, and construction, offering users higher construction efficiency and lower overall operating costs. Based on the launch presentation, this article systematically explains the highlights of RIPPA’s 2025 new products, helping purchasing and operational decision-makers quickly understand their value and application scenarios.
Fully Standardized Upgrades: Comprehensive Reliability Enhancements
PP Top Cover: The traditional iron cover has been replaced with a high-performance PP material, increasing impact resistance by approximately 50% and reducing cabin temperature by approximately 35%, significantly enhancing safety and comfort. Protective Net: All models are equipped with a high-strength impact net as standard, increasing impact resistance by approximately 69% and effectively protecting against operational risks such as flying rocks and debris.
Pointed-Bill Grease Fittings: Lubrication efficiency is increased by approximately 35%, enabling faster and more precise maintenance, reducing downtime and extending the life of critical moving parts.
Rubber Footpads: Non-slip, wear-resistant, and easy to clean, ensuring a clean and safe cab.
Lighting and Rearview System: Significantly improved lighting brightness and viewing range provide a wider rear view, ensuring safer operation at night and in confined areas.
These tangible improvements address real user pain points: frequent maintenance, safer visibility, and a comfortable cabin, helping the equipment maintain stable output during high-intensity, long-duration operations.
Key Model-Specific Upgrades: Enhanced Control and Greater Adaptability
R10-6: The all-new cab features redesigned ergonomics focused on comfort, safety, and intelligence. An optimized counterweight design enhances overall stability and lifting capacity, making it suitable for confined spaces and multi-tasking operations. R13-4 / R15-5 / R18-5 / R22-3 / R32-4:
New pilot handle: More intuitive button layout, easier-to-use control, and more stable performance for fine work.
Standard hydraulic thumb and quick-change feature: Quickly switch between buckets, breakers, clamps, and more, expanding operating conditions.
Quick-change dual protection: Effectively prevent accidental disconnection, ensuring safe operation.
Redesigned piping layout + four high-pressure oil pipes: Improve flow and response, reduce wear and heat, and simplify maintenance.
R15-5 / R18-5 / R22-3 / R32-4: Supports one-touch switching between SAE/ISO control modes, reducing learning costs and improving team adoption speed and safety.
R18-5 / R22-3 / R32-4: Added explosion-proof valve to prevent boom free-fall in the event of a sudden failure, protecting personnel and equipment. A dedicated lawn mower oil return line provides more stable operation and enhanced power, making it suitable for landscaping and agricultural maintenance. R22-3 / R32-4: The cab features an adjustable air suspension seat and fresh air system, significantly reducing vibration and dust impacts, making long-shift operations healthier and more efficient.
rs06-2 Remake: A Major Upgrade for Compact Equipment
The rs06-2 offers comprehensive improvements in stability, power, control, and expandability:
More Stable: The track width has been increased to 230mm, utilizing triangular tracks and double-row guide wheels, supporting five idler wheels and adjustable counterweights, providing enhanced ground adhesion and maneuverability.
More Powerful: Equipped with a Kubota D1105-E4B-CWL-1 engine and a load-sensing plunger pump, it delivers on-demand pressure, balancing power and fuel consumption.
Faster: Dual travel speeds (4/8 km/h) ensure precise operation and quick on-site transfers.
More Comfortable: An ergonomically adjustable lumbar support reduces fatigue during extended work. More Efficient: A quick-change system and dual accessory oil circuits (56 L/min) ensure a neat and easy-to-maintain oil line layout. Dual pilot handles allow for one-handed micro-operation. An automatic leveling valve automatically levels the bucket during lifting, reducing spillage and improving loading and unloading efficiency.
Why Choose the RIPPA 2025 mini excavator?
Safety First: From protective nets and explosion-proof valves to quick-change dual protection, it covers both visible and invisible safety throughout the entire process.
Evolved Efficiency: Stronger hydraulic response, faster accessory switching, and reduced maintenance time translate into measurable gains in work hours.
