The DD130 dozer is a brand new addition to DEVELON‘s present dozer lineup. The dozer was on show at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2023. The DD130 dozer presents a fine-grading machine for residential and light-weight industrial development.

DEVELON entered the North American dozer market in 2022 with a smaller dozer measurement, the DD100, competing within the 140-hp and below class. The primary DD100 dozers made their option to dealerships and ultimately job websites within the third quarter of 2022. 

“The brand new DD130 dozer will construct on the success of the DD100 with most of the identical common options,” says Moo Younger Park, engineering supervisor at DEVELON. “The suggestions from our sellers and prospects after the launch of the DD100 was very constructive, and we hope to proceed the momentum with the bigger DD130 dozer for the North American development trade.”

Productiveness of the DD130 dozer

The DD130 dozer delivers extra horsepower, higher tractive effort, and superb pushing energy to assist operators transfer extra materials and get extra carried out. 

The dozer makes use of a six-way variable-angle pitch blade. Customers can select from two blade choices: an ordinary 4.6 cubic yard blade or an non-obligatory 5.5 cubic yard capability blade. The blade strikes freely to raise, tilt, and angle. Two-way mechanical changes can change the blade pitch to manage how steeply the blade will dig into the bottom. Operators can alter the blade pitch from 52 to 58 levels and might rapidly take away supplies caught to the blade from an accessible blade shake button.

DEVELON dozers come commonplace with piping for an non-obligatory ripper attachment. The ripper attachment includes a parallel linkage that helps preserve a relentless angle to the bottom no matter peak. The attachment can rapidly break up laborious supplies previous to grading, and it may be used to put in erosion management. A towing drawbar can also be accessible as an attachment, permitting operators to make use of the dozer to tow different items of kit.

Visibility

The DD130 dozer presents elevated visibility to the machine’s blade. The entrance engine compartment presents a narrower design to make it simpler for operators to see their work.

• The precleaner is tucked away within the engine compartment to maximise entrance visibility.
• The digital cooling system was moved to the again of the dozer to additional enhance entrance visibility.
• The cab’s low-profile entrance pillars present most glass space.
• All-glass doorways present a full view of the working surroundings.

For additional visibility and security, an ordinary rearview digital camera supplies operators with an extra view of the dozer’s environment. The complete-colour, eight-inch show reveals the view of the rearview digital camera.

Serviceability of the DD130 dozer

The DD130 makes use of an electronically operated tilting cab that gives entry to inside elements. Even with the cab tilted, the dozer could be began whereas the machine is being identified or repaired.

An in-line precleaner helps enhance filter life and is built-in with the air cleaner. It is also extra compact to slot in the smaller engine compartment. Self-cleaning and maintenance-free, the consumption system can expel a wide range of particles, together with mud, snow, leaves, sawdust, and chaff.

The dozer undercarriage is designed for comfort and cost-effective upkeep. Areas of the undercarriage that naturally expertise better put on and tear are simple to entry. A detachable facet panel supplies entry to an space so as to add grease to the undercarriage’s stress system.

A telematics system is an ordinary characteristic on the DD130 dozer, making it simple for customers to remotely monitor and preserve their machine. They’ll monitor the well being, location, and productiveness of the dozer. The consumer’s seller may see the gear standing and notify them when it is time for service to attenuate machine downtime.

Know-how discovered within the DD130 dozer

The DD130 dozer can make the most of an accessible 2D grading system choice to make precision grading simpler, even for novice operators.
