Sany’s new wheeled excavator SY155W is its first mobile excavator designed specifically for the European Union market. Powered by a Deutz engine, the 14tonne unit also has a ZF driveline, Bosch Rexroth hydraulics and a two-piece boom. The 6.7 litre Cummins QSB6.7 engine produces 122kW of power at 2300rpm. To transport, the SY155W is just under 7.7m wide and 3.2m high.

Around 95% of the SY155W is completed in China and then the machine is shipped to Sany’s German facility in Bedberg for final addition of options and some systems. This should change in the near future, said Ronald Ziegler, sales director for excavators. It will be more beneficial to totally knock-down the basic machine in China and re-assemble in Germany. This would allow more innovations with European-made options for European clients, he said.

Sany expects to sell around 1,000 excavators of all the company’s excavator series in Europe in 2019, he said. The introduction of the SY155W is part of the Chinese company’s long-term plan to lift excavator sales in Europe to 3,400 units by 2022.
