New DX270WMH-7 Material
Handler from DEVELON
DEVELON, formerly Doosan Construction Equipment, has launched the new
DX270WMH-7 wheeled material handler. The DX270WMH-7 is powered by the latest
generation Develon 6-cylinder, turbocharged DL06V water-cooled diesel engine,
providing an output (SAE J1995) of 141 kW (189 HP) at 1900 RPM.
Next Level Performance
Incorporating new undercarriage, arm and boom, elevating
cab and counterweight designs, the new DX270WMH-7 is
built to offer next level performance for the toughest tasks
across a wide range of material sorting and handling
applications. The latter include the handling of scrap metal
and other solid waste, as well as those in recycling,
demolition and the timber industry.
The DX270WMH-7 has a newly designed undercarriage with
heavy duty, wide axles and longer and broader dimensions,
combined with a matching wheelbase to provide enhanced
stability when working with the machine.
With a range of elevation increased to 2603 mm, the new
hydraulic cab riser design gives the operator better all-around
visibility of the attachment and work area. This is combined
with a faster up speed for the elevation.
The very latest DXW-7 cab design provides a comfortable
interior and ergonomic layout, including an 8 inch gauge
panel and smart controls provided by the very latest operating
technology.
The elevating cab incorporates structural reinforcements to
ensure smoother operation and provide better protection of
components such as hoses and greasing lines. There are also
two safety valves for emergency cab descent, one in the cab
and the other on the outside.
Longer Reach and Higher Lifting Capacity
The DX270WMH-7 offers a greatly improved performance
without compromising on dimensions, with a longer reach
and a higher lifting capacity, with a straight arm as standard
and the options of gooseneck and long gooseneck arms as
alternatives.
The straight arm configuration offers the bucket linkage and
standard coupling for the use of sorting grapples. The
gooseneck arms provide a cost-effective solution, for use
where suspended attachments are being employed. Arms
and booms have been designed specifically for material
handling tasks, with the emphasis on durability and
lifting stability.
The new material handler is easy to operate
with ergonomic joysticks and a steering
wheel. The machine comes equipped with
two-way auxiliary and rotate circuit
hydraulics to improve efficiency. The
operator can use buttons on the joysticks
or an optional foot pedal to control
auxiliary attachments.
A special Develon-developed system,
Smart Power Control (SPC), improves
machine efficiency while maintaining
productivity through variable speed
control and pump torque control,
automatically adjusting RPMs
according to the load being handled.
Made to Match
the Application
Built on years of
experience with
previous models, the
DX270WMH-7 is
engineered
specifically for the
demanding needs of
waste and recycling
operations. Its wide
and stable
undercarriage with
individually controlled
stabilizers ensures
exceptional balance
and durability, even in
uneven or debris-
laden environments. A
reversing fan comes
standard, helping to
maintain optimal
engine temperatures
by automatically
clearing dust and
debris from the
cooling system -
minimizing downtime
and maintenance.
To enhance operator and site safety, the machine features an
innovative virtual wall system, allowing for customizable
operating boundaries to prevent accidental contact with
obstacles in front of the machine or with ceilings when
working indoors. The system also prevents the risk of contact
of the attachment and the cab with the
surroundings.
