Kobelco SK350 expert review
Overview
The SK350LC-10 is a Japan-built 35-ton class excavator aimed at production digging and truck loading. A Hino J08E (up to 209 kW) drives twin pumps for fast cycles, with 10 rpm swing and confident tracking for bench work.
Efficiency
Twin variable-displacement pumps (2 × 294 L/min) plus a gear pump keep attachments and digging fast without jumpy controls. The 10 rpm swing and long undercarriage support steady, predictable loading cycles.
In Cabin
Clear sight lines, effective climate control, and straightforward daily checks. Heavy Lift / Power Boost modes support tough cuts without overcomplication.
In Comparison
Cat 320: ~22 t, ~129 kN bucket force — smaller class. Cat 323: ~25 t, ~140 kN bucket force — still below SK350 output. Cat 330: ~31 t with 11.5 rpm swing — closer peer; Kobelco emphasizes smooth hydraulics and stability.
Final Verdict
A 5-star, Japan-built 35-tonner with serious digging power and smooth cycles. Expect a clear step up from 20–25 t units and competitive productivity versus a Cat 330.
