INTERMAT launch for Doosan DX180LC-3

The DX180LC-3 is the first of Doosan’s mid-range stage IIIB compliant excavators. Powered by a Doosan DL06 common rail six-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine, this 18tonne excavator uses a combination of EGR and DPF to meet emissions legislation. As a result, the new engine offers more power and torque than the stage IIIA DX180LC, and the potential to save 5-10% fuel consumption. A new cab offers greater room for the operator, while more glass helps visibility. Joysticks now feature new proportional thumb

Doosan's DX180LC-3 excavator live at INTERMAT
The DX180LC-3 is the first of 695 Doosan’s mid-range stage IIIB compliant excavators.

Powered by a Doosan DL06 common rail six-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine, this 18tonne excavator uses a combination of EGR and DPF to meet emissions legislation.

As a result, the new engine offers more power and torque than the stage IIIA DX180LC, and the potential to save 5-10% fuel consumption.

A new cab offers greater room for the operator, while more glass helps visibility. Joysticks now feature new proportional thumb wheels and integrated buttons to provide precise, proportional control of attachments.

An electrically driven cooling fan is thermostatically controlled, to keep the engine and hydraulic systems at a precisely optimized working temperature. This improves cooling efficiency and reduces fuel consumption, said Doosan.

Options now include a floating boom system for improved levelling and finishing work.

  • Doosan is offering a new hybrid excavator
    November 28, 2012
    From Doosan comes a new hybrid excavator that has been developed with Chinese customers in mind. High fuel costs in China mean that the country’s contractors are keen to reduce running costs by improving fuel economy. The new Doosan excavator, aimed at the 21tonne class, is designed just for that application and features a hybrid system to cut consumption levels. The hybrid system offers best economy when operating in truck loading cycles. Performance is not restricted by the hybrid drive however and this m

    January 6, 2017
    Greater fuel efficiency, improved digging performance and revised styling are among the changes to be found on Volvo’s latest D-series wheeled excavators. The four-model EW range spans 14-21tonnes and benefits from a new engine, cab, hydraulics, substructure, boom, arm and controls. There is more power with D-series, from stage IIIB engines that use V-ACT technology. The four cylinder (EW140D) and six cylinder engines produce high torque at low engine speeds, said Volvo, giving rise to low fuel consumption.

    Hyundai Heavy Industries Europe (HHIE) used INTERMAT to start the roll-out of its Dash 9A wheeled loaders. First up are the HL760, HL770 and HL780 models, which get Cummins QSB Stage IIIb engines with an active regeneration system that uses controlled, in-cylinder fuel injection (rather than a fuel burner) to achieve the desired reduction in engine emissions. Among the tweaks are a relocated fan to improve cooling efficiency and maintenance access, a touch-screen LCD display and electronic smart key – the l
