2025: Product Announcement
The Tverkommash company launched the production of the first Russian vacuum excavator TKM 727S on the SITRAK 6×4 chassis. The machine successfully passed certification and test tests. This was announced in early December 2025 by the government of the Tver region.
According to the developers, the high-tech unit has no analogues in Russia. Only two manufacturers in the world produce machines comparable in technical characteristics. Tver development demonstrates that the Russian engineering school is capable of creating competitive equipment that meets the highest requirements.
The vacuum excavator is designed for safe and accurate excavation of soil without the risk of damage to underground utilities. Vacuum excavation technology makes it possible to carry out work on soil extraction in conditions of dense urban development, near power lines, gas pipelines and other engineering networks, where the use of traditional earth-moving equipment is unacceptable.
The use of vacuum technology ensures the accuracy of work during repair and maintenance of communications. The excavator eliminates the mechanical impact on underground networks, which is critical when working with high-pressure gas pipelines, fiber optic cables and other sensitive communications.
The excavator is capable of providing a excavation depth of up to 50 m and a maximum horizontal distance from the extraction point of 150 m. The machine is equipped with a diesel engine with a capacity of 480 hp. and a turbine with a capacity of 42 thousand cubic meters. m per hour. The hydraulic controlled boom has a maximum reach of 6 m from the pivot axis and a working zone of 180 degrees.
For ease of use, the developers provided control over the process of excavation of soil from the console. The machine is equipped with improved LED lighting for working at night. This allows emergency operations to be carried out at any time of the day without loss of performance.[1]
