HD Hyundai Construction Equipment North America, which offers earthmoving equipment such as wheel loaders, hydraulic excavators and articulated dump trucks, expanded its product line into crawler dozers.
The 115-net-hp HD100 is the first Hyundai dozer model.
“The new HD100 dozer will be a great addition to the equipment fleets of earthmoving contractors, forestry, waste handlers and other customers who already enjoy the benefits of using Hyundai wheel loaders and excavators,” says Mike Ross, senior vice president of HD Hyundai Construction Equipment North America. “It’s further evidence of the Hyundai commitment to providing the right solution for a wide range of earthmoving and material-handling applications.”
According to the company, the HD100 dozer is designed to be heavier and deliver more power and superior tractive ability than competitive dozers in its size class. The machine’s undercarriage system includes dual-flange rollers outside the chain of the track and single-flange rollers inside the chain of the track. As Hyundai describes, this design helps to ensure the track stays on the undercarriage to reduce wear and provide greater operator comfort.
“This new Hyundai dozer delivers best-in-class power-to-weight ratio and the best visibility to the dozer blade,” says David Spooner, product manager at HD Hyundai Construction Equipment North America.
