Shantui branches out

Shantui's Intermat exhibit will see it branch out from dozers - the machines it is most associated with - and exhibit a range of earthmoving and road building equipment for the European market. Machines on display will include wheeled loaders, soil compactors and forklifts as well as dozers.

But centre of attention is likely to be the SD32 dozer, which is a medium-sized machine for earthmoving projects. This follows on the heels of the SD16-3, which was introduced to the European market three years ago, and will be making a repeat appearance at Intermat.
