End-to-end digital-twin quarry platform for SDLG fleets.
Since 1972 SDLG has grown to roughly 5,200 people, 600,000 m² of production footprint and about 30,000 units annually across 120 countries — always with contractor and quarry operators in the loop.
Plant audits typically review operating weight classes on the dyno, bucket capacity (m³) verification against ISO 7546, breakout force on densified aggregate, pilot pressure baselines and final drive oil temperatures after a loaded haul-road cycle. Those checks matter more to fleet finance than a slogan about “innovation,” because residual value tracks documented undercarriage and axle wear — not brochure horsepower alone.
Electrification pilots do not pretend diesel disappears overnight. On remote berms and arid pits, diesel wheel loaders still win on fuel logistics; on fixed quarry pads with grid power, battery-electric loaders cut scope-1 hours during night stockpile shifts. We publish both paths with ground pressure (kPa) and cooling-package notes so buyers can compare total cost of ownership without guessing.
Co-design battery, autonomy or hydrogen programs around your haul-road kilometers and stockpile density — not a slide deck alone.
