Making the grade
Earthmoving Equipment Magazine|October - November 2024
UHI bulldozers and graders are versatile heavy construction machines made for precise grading tasks.
Making the grade

Bulldozers and motor graders usually lead the effort when the job is moving mountains of material, preparing sites and performing final trimming on roads, sports fields, car parks and infrastructure.

UHI bulldozers are engineered for tasks such as grading surfaces to prepare building sites, roads, or repair landscapes.

Designed to push large volumes of material and remove obstacles such as trees, rocks, and brush, they are equipped with powerful tracks and a robust blade.

UHI special edition

Manufactured in a world-class manufacturing facility, UHI special edition bulldozers are custom-designed and tailored specifically for the Australian working environment.

The latest models feature a "SHIG Golden Powertrain" for more power, enhanced reliability and better fuel economy.

Power for the UHI bulldozer range comes from their turbocharged direct injection Weichai WP4 engines.

A new and efficient Linde electronic controlled hydrostatic transmission system (HST) consists of dual-path closed circuits with variable displacement piston pumps and travel motors.

This allows for quick shift or variable speed selection.

UHI bulldozers are made from a thick box section material and other components provide increased rigidity and strength.
