Shantui's SR12-5 live at INTERMAT
1171 Shantui’s SR12-5 road roller is the Chinese company’s most exported construction machine model and will be part of its large exhibition at INTERMAT. Said by Shantui to be designed mainly for use in mid-sized compaction duties, it features 2254 Dana hydraulic control systems, and comes with a single front-mounted drum. Weighing in at 12.3tonnes, the machine is powered by a six cylinder diesel rated at 105kW and features a 2.14m wide drum that has a diameter of 1.55m and offers a static front axle load of 7.1tonnes. Two low and high vibration frequencies are offered of 30 and 33Hz and the machine delivers switchable centrifugal forces of 180 or 270kN as well as amplitudes of 1 or 1.8mm respectively. Overall width of the machine is 2.4m and with its high comfort cab, the soil compactor is 3.13m high, while it measures just over 6m long. The company claims the SR12-5 compactor offers high performance, durable construction and reliable operation, as well as being easy to maintain and service.
Cat has revised its asphalt compactor range with Stage IIIb engines, revised drum options and a new cab layout. The changes also bring an all-new model – the CD44B – in the seven/eight tonne class, taking the model count to four. A revised cab now gives better sightlines to the drum edges and while the lateral side-shift for the operator’s seat has been retained, the previous 180-degree rotation is now extended to 360-degree rotation, giving the operator more freedom

Volvo’s two compact hydrostatic wheeled loaders, the nine and 10 tonne L45 and L50, have been upgraded to G-series specification. It means the compact loaders get a transversely-mounted, four-cylinder D4H engine that gives 74-86kW, and drives a twin-range hydrostatic transmission with 100% locking differentials on both axles.
