ON THE COVER: Latest from Babcock is the new four-model SDLG H-Series range of wheel loaders. The range follows hard on the heels of the 2024 launch of the four-model line-up of SDLG excavators, highlighting Babcock’s commitment to providing a comprehensive range of solutions to the ‘value’ segment of the equipment market in Southern Africa.
Following last year’s launch of the H-Series range of SDLG excavators – comprising the 6-tonne (t), 13-t, 21-t and 34-t class machines – Babcock is further strengthening the SDLG product line-up with the introduction of the new H-Series wheel loaders.
The new range comprises the L918H (1,8 t), the L938H (3,5 t), the L946H (4 t) and the L958H (5,8 t). Mark Senyard, Product Manager – SDLG at Babcock, says the arrival of the new H-Series wheel loaders ushers in a new era for customers across applications, including construction, agriculture and mining.
