Awesome Earthmovers x JCB Operator Challenge
JCB are proud to be the headline sponsor of Awesome Earthmovers’ Operator Challenge at PlantWorx 2025.
As well as being a fantastic way to celebrate JCB’s 80th anniversary, PlantWorx is a great platform to showcase our very latest construction machines, and to put skilled operators through their paces in a competitive, but friendly environment.
The machines
All machines used in the challenge will be supplied by JCB, including an extensive line-up of excavators from 1 to 14 tonnes. The popular 145XR X-Series zero tail swing, updated 3CX, and the versatile Hydradig will all be in action.
Alongside the competition kit, our latest hydrogen-powered internal combustion engine will also be on display, giving you the chance to see what’s next in alternative power.
Fancy testing yourself?
Daily prizes will be awarded in each challenge, with the overall winner decided by the lowest combined time across all eight games.
The format rewards consistency as much as speed and raises the bar for operator excellence.
