Hyundai introduces crawler dozer for North America
15 July 2024
HD Hyundai Construction Equipment North America expanded its product categories with the introduction of the Hyundai HD100, a new tracked dozer model.
The crawler will join Hyundai’s other machines in the North American product line, which includes wheeled loaders, excavators, dump trucks and compact track loaders.
Hyundai HD100 specifications
The Hyundai HD100 dozer is a 10-ton-class machine with a standard blade capacity of 2.9 cu yd (2.2m3) and a digging depth of 18 in (457mm).
The four-cylinder Hyundai G2 DM03 engine meets Tier 4 Final emissions standards and achieves 115 hp. Standard operating weight totals 23,589 lb (10,700 kg), and track length on the ground is 108 inches (2,737cm).
“A hydrostatic transmission provides smooth control of speed and torque while enhancing ease of operation,” added Hyundai.
The machine’s undercarriage system includes dual-flange rollers outside the chain of the track and single-flange rollers inside the chain of the track to help ensure the track stays on the undercarriage to reduce wear and provide greater operator comfort.
David Spooner, product manager with HD Hyundai Construction Equipment North America, said, “This new Hyundai dozer delivers best-in-class power-to-weight ratio and the best
visibility to the dozer blade. Our dealers and customers, especially in landscaping and forestry, have already expressed a lot of interest in this machine.”
Increased visibility and tech grading precision on the HD100
The company highlighted the cabin’s visibility and grading precision features upon the HD100’s release.
“The Hyundai HD100 dozer offers superior visibility to the standard 6-way angle blade,” said the company. “Positioning the electronic cooling system at the back of the machine results in an unobstructed view of the blade.”
Using 2D technology with 3D capabilities available, Hyundai said improving grading work is a vital part of the dozer.
“The standard 6-way variable-angle-pitch dozer blade – with a maximum angle of 25 degrees – delivers more precision when grading or moving dirt, clay and other materials,” said Hyundai. “The standard blade float function is ideal for fine finishing or smooth back grading. The machine is compatible with grading technologies that help even novice operators work faster and more precisely, save time and fuel, and maximize productivity.
“The 2D Smart Blade assist function, which comes standard, makes precision grading easier. The HD100 can also be ordered Trimble-ready from the factory. This optional 3D machine guidance and 3D machine control system activates automatic blade movements based on GPS coordinates.”
