Leading Chinese construction equipment manufacturer SDLG is proud to announce the latest addition to its range of motor graders, the G9290. With a base operating weight of 22.9 tonnes and a 14 ft wide blade as standard, the impressive productivity of blade down force and blade pull makes the SDLG G9290 the best in its size class.
The new G9290 is the first motor grader from SDLG in the heavy-duty size class, its strength and capacity making it ideal for mining haul road maintenance, infrastructure projects, road construction, highways and airports.
The
robust design of the new G9290 motor grader builds on the proven reputation of
its smaller brothers – the G9138, G9190 (VHP) and G9220 (VHP) – when it comes
to the moldboard, circle turn, drawbar, front axle and rear tandems.
However,
the G9290 adds a new level of quality with its Volvo-supplied engine and
Volvo-designed transmission. A member of the Volvo Group since 2007, SDLG draws
on the strength of the group to incorporate high-performance designs and
technologies into its products where appropriate.
The SD130B Stage II common
rail diesel engine, supplied by Volvo, offers high torque at low revs from a 211
kW output with Variable Horse Power (VHP) technology as standard. Meanwhile, the
HTE840S transmission, designed specifically for motor graders by Volvo, has 8
speed forward gears and 4 speed reverse gears all with automatic shifting.
The engine is cooled by
a thermostatically-controlled, hydraulically-driven fan, which can be reversed simply
by flipping a switch in the cab for easy radiator fin cleaning.
The moldboard is kept
level at all times by the 16° oscillation on the heavy-duty front axle, 18°
wheel leaning and +/- 15° oscillation on the rear tandem, ensuring quality,
fine grading.
The heavy-duty chain-driven tandem with a no-spin differential
lock on the rear axle and heavy-duty bearings, meanwhile, delivers outstanding
traction and reliability.
The circle turn, exclusive to SDLG, uses twin-gear
hydraulic cylinders to provide instant, high-output torque, enabling moldboard
rotation under heavy loads. This means there is no need to stop, reverse and
change moldboard angle. Having circle turn gears on the outside of the ring
gives the benefit of less mud and debris stuck to the gears and hence less
wear, less maintenance and longer durability.
The unique SDLG circle drive system comes with five
support shoes on the G9290 and non-greasing slide bushings for better grading, an
extended service life and easier maintenance. SDLG graders also feature an
asymmetric drawbar ball stud that can be rotated 180° in
order to keep the drawbar in horizontal level position – vital when performing fine
grading.
The G9290 offers tremendous blade mobility, which may be
easily performed hydraulically from inside the cab, thanks to the SDLG Blade
Control System. The hydraulic lock bar features seven positions to enable blade
positioning from a 90° vertical
position on both sides of the grader to a 21°
downward ditch cleaning angle.
The hydraulic system consists of one variable displacement
axial piston pump supplying oil to the proportional closed centre load-sensing
main control valve. This ensures that sufficient flow is always available.
The
durable and reliable frame comes factory-prepared to accept all types of
attachment with no need to weld or cut to fit attachments, like a scarifier or
a ripper to the machine. The front frame is engineered to be strong enough to
accommodate the front attachment, the moldboard and the circle turn, while
still providing optimal visibility for the operator.
A
box-type design on the rear frame offers superior strength and durability,
accommodating the drivetrain as well as rear attachments. For example, SDLG
offers a parallel rear ripper for the G9290 fitted with three ripper shanks.
The ripper frame can also accommodate scarifier teeth if required.
A
ROPS/FOPS certified cab ensures the safety of the operator. It is fitted on the
front frame of the G9290 in order to reduce vibrations and heat from engine and
transmission. Entry and exit can safely be made with three-point contact all
the way. The cab is fitted with LED work lights to ensure safe operation even
in the absence of daylight.
The
design of the G9290 provides excellent visibility for the operator to the front
and the sides of the machine, with large windows to enhance all-round
visibility. The sloping front frame provides excellent visibility to front
objects. Inside the cab, the low efforts control levers are ergonomically laid
out with ample adjustment possibilities to fit every operator’s needs. The
steering wheel pedestal is also adjustable for optimal comfort.
With
large openable doors at the side and at the rear, the G9290 provides excellent
access to all the main maintenance points. For convenience, all filters are
grouped together on the left side of engine. The extensive SDLG dealer and
service network ensures that customers always receive excellent support and
reliable backup.
“The new SDLG G9290 motor grader is the embodiment of ‘Reliability in Action,” says Mohamad Jammoul, product manager for SDLG motor graders. “This hard-working machine is built to last while delivering best-in-class grading performance.”
