Shantui is developing sales for its dozers in export markets
Chinese firm 1171 Shantui continues to achieve export success for its construction equipment. Earlier this year the firm supplied its first bulk export of hydrostatic dozers, with an order for 78 machines in all.

The order comprised 27 of the 74.6kW SD10YE models and 51 of the larger 97kW SD13-2 units. The machines are being used for large-scale infrastructure development works, including road building projects.

This sale marks a milestone for both Shantui’s product development and performance in overseas markets. The SD10YE hydrostatic bulldozer is the result of years of market research and intensive product development. The SD10YE was designed according to consumer demand from developed markets by Shantui’s R&D Centre. It features Rexroth hydraulics and is said to offer lower energy consumption due to higher efficiency than similar models from some competitors. The model is also available with Stage IIIB and Tier 4 Interim compliant diesels, as well as engines suited to customers in developing markets.
