CTR6

The market's most compact tiltrotator for 3.5 – 6 tonnes

  • Cylinder-free design
  • Only 360 mm wide
  • Lightweight – only 175 kg
  • 2x50° tilt
  • Infinite rotation
  • Prepared for machine control

The Compacttilt Rotator™ CTR6 is developed to give mini excavators in the 3.5T to 6T class extended functionality through improved operating economy and a better working environment for the machine operator.

  • Machine control – The CTR6, like all Compacttilt Tiltrotator products, is prepared for machine control.
  • HS2 control system – The CTR6 can be specified with the large HS2 control system, where the new L8 SVAB joystick and touchscreen are installed in the cab, with the option of track steering, boom swing control and dozer blade control.
  • Uniquely low weight – from 175 kg including mounting and valve block.
  • Minimal width – from 360 mm without gripper.
  • Gripper option – The gripper can be added and is available with S40, S45 and Hydrema mounting.

The CTR6 features a narrow design to ensure the machine is suited for work in complex conditions, in areas that are normally hard to reach and/or in narrow trenches. This means the CTR6 is built without cylinders and can work in 40 cm trenches – both with and without a gripper.

The CTR6 is also designed with a focus on being a lightweight product, so the excavator retains its full lifting capacity. The CTR6 has a product weight starting at 175 kg, depending on the options.

With the CTR6, the machine gains full rotation in the attachment with 360-degree rotation and a 2 x 50-degree tilt function. This means the machine optimises its tasks within grading, digging, levelling and earthmoving.

The CTR6 is prepared for central lubrication, where all lubrication points are routed to a single grease point.

Add CT-OIL™

The CTR6 can be specified with Compacttilt's solution for automatic oil changeover, CT-Oil. With CT-Oil, the machine can change attachments – for example a gripper – using the machine's joystick without manually switching the oil coupling. This means attachments can be changed without the operator having to leave the cab. CT-Oil stands out by being able to connect to the machine's existing controls and by working with all types of control systems, including HS4.

CT-LOCK™ included

The CTR6 is developed with CT-Lock, a double locking on the bucket coupler. It is a mechanical additional safety feature in accordance with the applicable Machinery Directive.

What our customers say


Compacttilt CTR6 in action

My experience has been very positive. The smooth movements, the rotation, the gripper – they are a real pleasure to work with. For us, Compacttilt is an ideal solution for carrying out all our work.

— Pedro van Schaijk

I bought a Hitachi 38u with a Compacttilt CTR6. The CTR6 makes it easier to remove soil around cables and pipes, so we need the hand shovel less often while still getting the digging work done underneath.

— Jørgen Petersen

Frequently asked questions


Does the CTR6 fit my machine? +
The CTR6 is developed for excavators in the 3.5 to 6 tonne class and is available with various mounting plates (S40, S45, Hydrema). Unsure about the right configuration? Contact a Compacttilt dealer for advice tailored to your machine.
Can the CTR6 be supplied with a gripper? +
Yes. The CTR6 is available with an integrated gripper for moving stone, timber, pipes and rubble. The total width with gripper is 400 mm with S40 and 490 mm with S45.
Is HS2 necessary? +
HS2 is an intelligent control system with joystick and touchscreen. It is not a mandatory purchase, but it makes operating the tiltrotator considerably more user-friendly and is fully plug & play.
Can the CTR6 be used with Leica or Trimble? +
Yes. The CTR6 is prepared for machine control and can be combined with common 3D systems such as Leica and Trimble. For precise positioning, we offer a rotation sensor that continuously registers the tiltrotator's rotation and passes the data on to the machine control system. This means the operator always knows exactly where the attachment is – even when it is rotated – ensuring accurate digging and grading to the digital models. Contact your dealer for the right integration on your machine.
How do I maintain the CTR6? +
Thanks to the cylinder-free design, the CTR6 has fewer wear parts and no vulnerable hydraulic cylinders. Regular lubrication and visual inspection are sufficient in most cases. See the full user manual for the complete maintenance schedule – or quickly find the most essential information in our Quick Guide.
In which country is Compacttilt manufactured? +
Compacttilt is a Danish product, developed and manufactured 100% in Denmark. The product range is built around a unique, patented motor technology that clearly sets it apart from traditional tilt and tiltrotator systems – in both construction and design. The system is specially developed for excavators in the 1 to 10 tonne class.
