JCB India has launched its first diesel-powered Telescopic Boom Platform, the T 65D. It is manufactured at JCB’s state-of-the-art facility in Jaipur. The T 65D boasts a platform height of 65 feet and 4 inches, with a reach of 56 feet and 6 inches, and can carry a maximum load of 450 kilogrammes. Powered by a JCB diesel engine, the machine features two work zones and an 8-foot platform. Weighing 12,500 kilogrammes, it comes with standard four-wheel-drive and advanced safety features, including a secondary guarding system and crush hazard protection, ensuring operator safety at all times. The machine also enhances productivity through intuitive controls, an oscillating starting angle, and ergonomic joystick design for fatigue-free operation.
Deepak Shetty, CEO and Managing Director of JCB India, highlighted India’s growing economy and the increasing demand for such equipment, predicting significant growth in the domestic market over the next few years. The T 65D is not only intended for the Indian market but is also being exported to developed markets worldwide, reflecting JCB's commitment to the 'Make in India' initiative. The machine is ideal for use in construction, cement, oil, and gas industries, and is also popular at airports, warehouses, and other sites where operating at heights is required.
To support the new launch, JCB has established a dedicated distribution network with 11 dealers across India. These dealers are equipped with trained engineers and parts backup to ensure seamless operation of the T 65D throughout the country.
