Sany’s new SHG190 grader is said to be precise, powerful and productive in operation
1170 Sany is introducing several new machines with improved performance, including the SHG130 grader and SSR260 soil compactor. For earthmoving operations Sany has developed the SSR260 soil compactor and SHG190 grader. The 26.7tonne soil compactor is designed for low maintenance needs, with features including positive lubrication air-intake filtering and fuel filtering. Vibration damping makes the machine comfortable to operate for longer periods while an electronic diagnostics system ensures that the operator can monitor performance and that maintenance and services issues can be addressed efficiently. Meanwhile, similar electronic diagnostics, air and fuel filtering and hydraulic controls are used in the SHG130 grader, which features hydrostatic drive.
