At Eagle Plant, we’re proud to continue leading the way in large plant hire across the UK with the introduction of the brand-new Takeuchi 3-Series TB3150R, a true game-changer in the world of large excavators for hire.
A Milestone for Eagle Plant and Takeuchi
Our relationship with Takeuchi dates back to 1998, shortly after Eagle Plant became an independent company. Over the years, this strong partnership has enabled us to grow and evolve our fleet to meet the demands of modern construction projects.
So, when Takeuchi announced the TB3150R, it was an easy decision for us to invest. Not only is this impressive machine the first of its kind in the UK, but it also marks a major milestone becoming our 1,800th Takeuchi machine.

Power Meets Precision: A New Standard in Large Excavators
Weighing in at 15 tonnes, the TB3150R is now the largest excavator available from Takeuchi. This powerful addition to our fleet is designed to stand out not just for its size, but also for its striking custom finish in Eagle Plant’s signature blue and yellow branding.
Despite its scale, this machine has been engineered with precision in mind. Takeuchi has reduced tail swing and reinforced the fixed boom to minimise overhang, making it ideal for working in tighter spaces or close to buildings. This makes it a highly versatile choice for contractors seeking large excavators for hire without compromising on manoeuvrability.
Operator Comfort and Advanced Features
The TB3150R has been designed with operators at the forefront, offering a spacious, well-equipped cab that ensures comfort, safety, and efficiency on site. Key features include:
* Rear and blind-side wide-angle colour cameras with auto-reverse activation and split-screen display
* Fully adjustable deluxe high-back heated air suspension seat
* Adjustable armrests for enhanced comfort
* Air conditioning with climate control system
* Digital DAB radio with USB-C and Bluetooth connectivity
* Five cab mirrors for improved visibility and reduced blind spots
* Roof guard and steel rain guard for added protection
* Anti-slip service access steps with handrail
* Large, fully supportive foot travel pedals
These features make the TB3150R a standout option within our plant hire fleet, ensuring operators can work efficiently and comfortably throughout the day.

A Legacy of Growth in Plant Hire
Our journey with Takeuchi began with the compact yet capable Micro TB007. Since then, Eagle Plant has continuously expanded its excavator range to meet growing industry needs. From 5-tonne machines to 7.5-tonne and 8-tonne excavators, our fleet has evolved to provide reliable solutions for projects of all sizes.
The addition of the TB3150R represents the next step in that evolution, reinforcing our commitment to offering high-quality plant hire services across the UK.
