695 Doosan Infracore attracted nearly 500 existing and prospective customers to this year’s Demo Days events held at Kozli Quarry near Pisek, in the Czech Republic.

Attendees from 18 countries right across the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region  had an opportunity to try out a wide selection of Doosan heavy machines and attachments in real working conditions. They included Stage IIIB compliant crawler and wheeled excavators, wheeled loaders, articulated dump trucks (ADTs) and heavy duty telescopic handlers in true working conditions.

Among the models being tried out were the new DX180LC-3, DX300LC-3 and DX340LC-3 crawler excavators; the DL200-3 and DL350-3 wheeled loaders and the DA30 and DA40 ADTs. 

The DX700LC and DX520LC - the two largest models in the crawler excavator range - were also being put through their paces in the lower part of the quarry, which is owned by the Czech company, Kamenolomy CR.

A Doosan spokesperson said: “As a result of their trips, many customers have already placed orders for Doosan equipment based on their positive experiences at Demo Days.”
