The MST160CR in Action on Jobsite

At Morooka, innovation never stops. As the world market leader in rubber crawler carriers, we’re proud to announce two exciting new additions to our line-up: the MST160CR and the MST30CT. Both models will arrive in Europe by May 2026, further strengthening our position as the manufacturer offering the widest range of rubber crawler dumpers on the market.

The new MST160CR sets a new benchmark in the 16-ton payload class — and stands alone in the market as the only 16-ton carrier with full 360° rotation. Powered by a proven CAT C7.1 engine (225 kW / 2200 rpm, EU Stage V), it delivers outstanding performance and efficiency. Operator comfort and safety are top priorities, with a ROPS/FOPS cabin that now includes an additional ROPS guard, air conditioning, and joystick control for intuitive operation. The 360° rotation of the upper structure ensures unmatched flexibility on any job site.

Enhanced technology further improves safety and productivity. The 360° camera system provides full visibility around the machine, while the overload prevention function monitors approximate load weight to help reduce the risk of overloading and protect undercarriage components. Maintenance is easier than ever thanks to a bolted pivot shaft support, allowing for quick replacement when required. Despite its robust 18,300 kg machine weight, the MST160CR maintains low ground pressure, preserving surface integrity and ensuring excellent mobility on soft or sensitive terrain. With a width of only 2.98 m, it also remains easy to transport across many regions.

Alongside it, the new MST30CT brings Morooka’s reliability and design expertise to the compact 3-ton class. Featuring a ROPS canopy, turnable seat, 180° rotating dump body, and joystick control, it’s built for agility and efficiency in confined or urban job sites. More details on this model will be available soon.

With these new machines, Morooka once again redefines performance, safety, and versatility in the world of rubber crawler carriers.
