Main pump flow of the new models has increased by 8% and system pressure has risen to 350-370 kg/cm2.

Bucket forces have been increased by 16% and arm forces by between 6% and 16%.

Lifting capacities have been increased by between 3% and 12% over the front of the excavators.

Power is increased by 2%, with 12% more torque and a 10% increase in traction force, Doosan says.

In additional, fuel consumption is reduced by up to 9%, the manufacturer says.
