Doosan to debut DL-7 range at World of Concrete
Doosan will showcase the company’s brand new DL-7 range of wheel loaders for the first time at World of Concrete 2021 in the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, USA from June 8th to 10th 2021. Representative of the new DL-7 range, a DL380-7 wheel loader will be exhibited on the Doosan Stand Number W1302 in the West Hall at the Convention Center.
A new look and all-new, redesigned cabs with enhanced comfort features, increased bucket capacities and new fuel-saving technologies are highlights of this next generation of Doosan wheel loaders. Every DL-5 Series Doosan wheel loader will eventually be replaced by a DL-7 Series machine — from the DL200-7 to the DL580-7.
The new DL380-7 — a replacement for the DL350-5 — features an axle upgrade allowing customers to carry and lift larger load capacities. This increases customers’ capabilities in a variety of traditional earthmoving applications. In addition, a larger standard bucket provides up to 7% larger capacity than the previous model for faster, easier loading to help customers finish their jobs in fewer passes.
Doosan will also showcase a 14-tonne crawler excavator, the 109 HP DX140LC-5. This 14-tonne machine is among the most popular excavators in the Doosan line-up, especially for smaller residential site preparation. Its size makes it attractive to contractors who need an excavator larger than a mini-excavator but still want the versatility of a relatively small crawler model. The DX140LC-5 excavator has a maximum digging depth of 6,135mm and a maximum digging reach of 8,665mm. A rearview camera comes standard and a sideview camera is an option. Operators can see both views with the split-screen mode on the display inside the cab.
World of Concrete is the commercial construction industry’s largest annual international event for concrete and masonry professionals.
