Hidromek expand the range again

Our friends at Turkish construction machinery manufacturer Hidromek, chose Intermat as the launch pad for their new wheeled loading shovel the HMK 640 WL.

Following hot on the heels of the recent motor grader deal with Mitsubishi, Hidromek continue to expand their impressive product portfolio with the introduction of its first wheeled loader model. The HMK 640 WL is a 24 tonne class machine which features a 4 cubic metre bucket and rather interestingly features a 6 cylinder 324hp turbo diesel engine which is produced by Mercedes and adapted for industrial use by MTU, a company which is one of the group firms of Rolls Royce. This machine was designed in house by Hidromek’s highly skilled design technicians, following consultation with operators and end users out in the field.

Check out this promotional video from Hidromek which gives a bit more background on the design process and thinking behind this distinctive black & white machine.
