“SDLG will be introducing a 5-ton loader to the Indian market at bauma CONEXPO INDIA 2018. The newest SDLG wheel loader features a larger bucket capacity, heavier operating weight, and a new cooling design system.”

With the Indian government continuing to invest in infrastructure, there is high demand for wheel loaders in India.

The new SDLG wheel loader will be a great fit for heavy-load applications such as material handling, land clearing, and general earthmoving. SDLG will also display the G9138 motor grader and the L946 wheel loader. G9138 is the smaller of two motor grader models that SDLG offers in the region and is ideal for construction of smaller municipal or rural roads. The G9138 is powered by a Deutz BF4M1013-15T3R/2 engine that has an output of 111 kW at 2100 rpm and can reach maximum 39 km/h forward and 24 km/h backward speeds. SDLG launched the L946 wheel loader at Excon 2017. It features a maximum 3.5 m³ bucket capacity, a maximum 1 m dumping distance and a 129-kW rated power.
