dozers were introduced at a Houston event.
LiuGong North America introduced the Dressta TD-8S and TD-9S dozers to North American construction equipment dealers at an event in Houston.
According to LiuGong, dealers converged in Houston for an in-depth look at LiuGong and Dressta operations, as well as the opportunity to see the dozers in action.
“The new S-Series dozers represent a real reinvigoration of the Dressta brand in North America,” says Marcus Menough, director of sales and marketing for LiuGong North America. “They are industry-competitive machines specified for today’s performance and operator standards with all features, technical and environmental requirements.”
According to LiuGong, the TD-8S and TD-9S launched in Europe at Bauma Munich in April. Tier 4 Final Cummins engines power the dozers, delivering 94 hp and 113 hp, respectively. The dozers are equipped with Rexroth dual-path hydrostatic drive systems that transmit full power to both tracks in all conditions, ensuring smooth speed changes, pivot turns and counter rotation, the company says.
The machines feature six-way C-frames, as well as robust undercarriages that is available in two options: the standard LT (long-track) version for better stability during driving and leveling, and the LGP (low ground pressure) version for use in swampy or muddy terrain. The S-Series dozers are available with integrated technology options of Trimble Basic, Trimble Ready and full Trimble 3-D control systems.
Dressta is headquartered in Poland and is the sales, marketing and after-sales and service division of LiuGong Dressta Machinery. LiuGong North America is responsible for sales and product support for all LiuGong-distributed machines, including the Dressta product line and LiuGong forklifts, for North America.
