The Sunward SWE 18UF is a 4-pole canopy mini excavator built for small corners and tight working conditions.
With the zero-tail chassis and the expandable undercarriage (from 900 mm to 1 320 mm), you can get into the smallest spaces, allowing for precise movement, even when the space is restricted.
And in case you need extra support, you can simply widen undercarriage.

The SWE 18UF has exceptional digging forces of over 22.7 kN (bucket) and over 9.8 kN (arm), which easily rival the 2-ton excavator competitors on the market.
With probably the longest arm in its class, allowing long-reach digging capacity, the SWE 18UF’s boom cylinder design provides a reach that’s over 4 meters (4120 mm) long.
With 3 separate auxiliary lines as standard (the market provides 1 to 2 lines as standard), the SWE 18UF is ready for all types of attachments, an thus, it can adapt to any job site.
Comfort and safety are not at rest thanks to a 4-poles canopy design, the high back adjustable suspension seat and an ergonomically designed operator workspace.

MADE FOR EUROPE
On top of its EU certification, the Sunward SWE 18UF, like all Sunward machines on the European market, is designed to meet European customer needs.
POWERFUL & RELIABLE ENGINE
We chose the powerful Yanmar 3TNV80F-SSU engine featuring low fuel consumption, low noise and vibration levels, and high-altitude performance control, ensuring intensive work under severe environment. This 13.4 kW industrial diesel engine is both EPA Final Tier 4 and EU Stage V compliant, and its compact design means it can fulfil a variety of roles. The Yanmar engine perfectly matches with the power of hydraulic system, guarantying smooth operation. This engine is the perfect fit for our reliable and versatile Sunward SWE 18UF.
PREMIUM COMPONENTS
All key components in Sunward excavators are carefully selected, from Yanmar engine to hydraulics. Because hydraulics are often regarded as the heart of the machine, Sunward sources exclusively from the highest references in the market. For our Sunward SWE 18UF, Because the hydraulics are often regarded as the heart of the machine, Sunward sources exclusively from the highest references in the market. For the SWE 18UF, we selected Japanese premium brand NACHI to be our main supplier for the hydraulic pump and traveling and swing motor. NACHI pumps and components for construction machinery are efficient, reliable, and space-saving. So, it’s no coincidence that Sunward selected them to contribute to the SWE 18UF’s reliability.
COMPACT DESIGN
The SWE 18UF’s extendable undercarriage – the track width can be extended from 990 mm to 1320 mm – provides sturdy stability, ensuring safe and comfortable operation in all kinds of job applications. The adjustable crawler track is ideal in confined areas or when greater stability is required.
HIGH WORKING RANGE
For a compact machine, the SWE 18UF has exceptional digging forces of over 22.7 kN (bucket) and over 9.8 kN (arm), which easily rival the 2- ton excavator competitors on the market. And when it comes to its long-reach digging capacity, the SWE 18UF’s boom cylinder design provides a reach that’s over 4 meters (4120 mm) long.
READY FOR A VARIETY OF APPLICATIONS
A mini-excavator’s versatility starts with how well it is designed for transportation. The SWE 18UF does more than simply align with the EU’s transportation regulations – truly compact (990 mm width) and lightweight (1880 kg), it allows easy, safe, and secure transport. With an automatic slew lock and 4 easily accessed tie-down points on the lower frame, the machine can be safely transported on a small trailer with up to 3 buckets and a hydraulic breaker, while maintaining a total transport weight close to 2t. A wide range of attachments can be easily fitted to answer a variety of applications.
