Like other machines in 230 Hidromek’s Gen series excavator range, the HMK370LC is fitted with Smartlink GPS which can track data, such as use periods, geographical position, fuel consumption values and maintenance times, to promote efficient machine and service management.

The 370LC comes with a six-cylinder Isuzu engine, a 6.5m boom, a standard bucket capacity of 2m³ and an operating capacity of 38,350kg.

Hidromek exports manager Anil Bingol said the firm was encouraged by rising demand for their construction equipment, such as the 370LC.
“Business is going in an upwards direction. We are expecting a nice year despite what people are saying [about the economy] in Europe,” said Bingol.

“We are doing a lot of work with Russia and ex-Soviet countries, as well as South America and Africa, and are looking for new markets.”

Hidromek has announced plans to launch a demolition excavator 370LCD, with a 21m reach, and 48,000kg and 52,000kg crawler excavators in the last quarter of 2012.

    JCB has updated its 1.5tonne 8018 CTS mini excavator. The conventional tailswing machine has an improved lift capacity, thanks to a return to a box-section boom, with an 11% increase in digging depth. Dump height and reach are also improved, and the mini has a new dozer blade for greater pushing performance. Upgraded hydraulics, with longer travel valves increase control and allow straight line tracking while using upper structure functions.

    Liebherr has developed a hybrid drive system for its HS8300HD heavy duty cycle crawler crane. The 350 tonne machine generates electrical power from its hydraulic free-fall winches, which offer up to 50 tonnes of line pull. Under this Pactronic system surplus energy is stored in a hydraulic accumulator and regenerated to assist the engine, reducing fuel consumption. This reuse of energy also cuts emissions from the machine.
