More YANMAR excavators for ANLIKER

ANLIKER AG Construction, based in Emmen, is expanding its machinery fleet with a total of 13 new YANMAR crawler excavators.

9 of 13 New YANMAR excavators delivered

On August 31, 2026, the first partial delivery of the large-scale order took place, consisting of 9 of the 13 YANMAR excavators. The excavators were deployed at the RUBAG facility in Hellbühl and transported from there to Emmen.

The first delivery included:

• 1 × YANMAR ViO12 mini excavator
• 4 × YANMAR ViO17-1 mini excavators
• 3 × YANMAR ViO27LW-6 mini excavators
• 1 × YANMAR ViO57-6B mini excavator

With this model range, ANLIKER covers a wide spectrum of applications. The compact ViO12 and ViO17-1 models really shine in tight spaces, while the ViO27LW-6 offers additional power and reach for a variety of tasks. With an operating weight of approximately 5.5 metric tons and 33.5 kW of engine power, the ViO57-6B is the largest model in the first partial delivery and provides the necessary power for more demanding applications.

Comprehensively equipped and featuring the unmistakable ANLIKER design

The machines were specifically tailored to ANLIKER’s requirements. Depending on the model, features include powertilt swing mechanisms, hydraulic quick-change systems, additional hydraulic circuits, FASTER couplings, rear counterweights, and central lubrication systems.

Visually, too, the new excavators are unmistakable: The special turquoise-and-white paint scheme in the ANLIKER design seamlessly integrates them into the existing fleet.

Second partial delivery to follow: 4 x ViO38-7

A second partial delivery will consist of four YANMAR ViO38-7 mini excavators. These four ViO38-7 excavators will also be specially equipped to meet ANLIKER’s requirements. 

Long-standing partnership and mutual appreciation

ANLIKER AG, a construction company based in Emmen, has long relied on YANMAR excavators in the compact machinery sector. The YANMAR machines are used in building construction, civil engineering, and renovation projects. The fleet is continuously being modernized.

Daniel Fleischlin, Head of Technology at the ANLIKER depot, explains: “When selecting our machines, performance, reliability, cost-effectiveness, and ease of operation are particularly important to us. Equally important to ANLIKER are easy access to service components, straightforward daily maintenance, and the lowest possible fuel consumption. With Yanmar, we have acquired machines that meet these requirements. In daily use, the machines impress us with their high performance, intuitive operation, and efficient, fuel-efficient engines.”

As a result, RUBAG was able to deliver various YANMAR mini-excavators to the ANLIKER construction company as early as 2024 and 2021. With the current major order for 13 additional YANMAR excavators, this long-standing partnership is being successfully strengthened. 

ANLIKER Construction is served regionally by the RUBAG location in Hellbühl. Proximity to the customer, personalized advice, and reliable, prompt service form an important foundation for the long-standing partnership between Anliker and RUBAG. In addition, RUBAG has been acting as the exclusive dealer and general importer for YANMAR compact machines in Switzerland since June 1, 20 .

We greatly appreciate that ANLIKER Bauunternehmung has once again chosen YANMAR. We sincerely thank them for their continued trust and excellent collaboration, and wish them many successful projects with their new machines.
