HYUNDAI HL955 WHEEL LOADERS

Technical Description

The Hyundai HL955 wheel loader is equipped with a Cummins QSB6.7 engine delivering 197 hp (147 kW) and a maximum torque of approximately 685–730 lb-ft, optimized for efficient power and fuel consumption. It features a rated bucket capacity of around 3.6 to 3.7 cubic yards (2 to 2.8 m³), suitable for heavy material handling in construction, mining, and quarrying applications. The loader's operating weight ranges from about 33,000 to 35,000 lbs (15,000 to 15,900 kg), providing stability and durability under tough working conditions. The machine's Z-bar linkage offers strong breakout forces near 28,000 to 31,000 lbs, enhancing loading productivity. It boasts a dump clearance at maximum bucket raise of about 9.3 feet (3 m), enabling efficient material discharge into trucks and hoppers. The HL955 supports travel speeds up to 24.9 mph (40 km/h), contributing to fast cycle times. Notable features include an onboard weighing system for accurate load management, high-strength HARDOX steel components for enhanced durability, and a center-point frame articulation with 40° steering angles for maneuverability. Additional innovations like an optional hydraulic differential lock reduce tire slip and improve fuel economy. The operator cabin is designed for comfort and low sound levels (around 68 dB), with an optional electro-hydraulic control lever facilitating ease of operation. Automatic engine shutdown reduces idle time and fuel use, further promoting operational efficiency. Overall, the Hyundai HL955 balances power, efficiency, and durability for optimal performance in demanding earthmoving environments.
