LiuGong Dressta’s TD-40E dozer, one of three on show
269 LiuGong Machinery Corporation is showing its line of dozers.

The three dozers are manufactured in the company’s newly-acquired plant in Poland following the recent acquisition of HSW (4123 Huta Stalowa Wola) 3420 Dressta, a company noted for bulldozer technology.

This is the first time the dozers are being presented as part of LiuGong and they include the TD-14M with an operating weight of 15,550kg and a blade capacity of 4.28m³; the TD-20M (operating weight 23,650kg and a blade capacity of 8.45 m³) and the TD-40E, which has an operating weight of 67,700kg and a blade capacity of 39.8m³.

The LiuGong Dressta bulldozer has powerful 196 Cummins diesel engines featuring advanced electronic fuel injection systems delivering higher torque and superior throttle response across the entire rpm range.  All three engines meet the strict EU Stage IIIA emissions requirements.

The advanced electro-hydraulic steering system features pre-set travel speed selection and automatic downshift while all three machines feature sound-suppressed cabins with pressurised air-conditioning and heat and a fully adjustable, pivoting air-suspension seat.

“The exclusive single-rail modular powertrain provides ready access to all its components: engine, torque converter, transmission, steering drive and final drives. Because the system is modular, each part can be serviced separately in the field,” said LiuGong.

    The Power Curber 5700-C series has been engineered and designed to provide customers with an easy-to-operate, reliable and productive machine, which the company claims is the number one seller. The 5700-C is compact, providing the operator with an excellent view of the concrete as it exits the mould and any activity around the machine. A direct drive high torque auger conveyor is preferred to a conveyor belt, providing faster movement of concrete regardless of the incline of the conveyor.

  • LiuGong is investing in its facilities and product line
    January 6, 2017
    The acquisition of the HSW firm making the Dressta bulldozers has been strategically important for LiuGong. This facility is its first factory in Europe and has brought with it a very well-proven product line. The factory has benefited from a number of changes and David Beatenbough, vice president of LiuGong research and development said, “What we’ve found is that every machine tool is old but the maintenance has been tremendous. We’ve only had to replace one or two machine tools. So for this year we’ve bee
