SANY is taking to the road – not just at Conexpo 2020, but also on a road near you. With the new SANY SMG200C-8 motor grader and SSR120C-8 single drum roller, making their first appearance at the big show, SANY is making it easier and more affordable for municipalities and road construction crews to handle road maintenance and repair work.

SSR120C-8 single drum roller
SANY’s new roller is a simple yet versatile piece of machinery, ready to help handle compaction work with ease. With a streamlined and easy-to-learn design, this new machine helps make it simple for even new workers to make quick work of any road job. This is a big advantage, particularly with demand growing and more and more young workers entering the workforce.

One of the most common machines for new operators to learn on at a road construction site is the roller, and the SANY SSR120C-8 offers a very straightforward set of controls that makes it easy to handle. “Rollers are simple machines. Our machines have it all, and still use top-shelf components like a Cummins engine or Rexroth hydraulics that our customers know and trust. Now we can offer a low-complexity roller that does everything municipalities and contractors need at a fraction of the cost of our competitors”, said Noah Thomas VanOosterhout, road product manager at SANY.

SMG200C-8 motor grader
In addition to the new roller, SANY’s SMG200C-8 motor grader helps make road maintenance and repair work a breeze. Unlike many models on the market today, SANY’s motor grader is built with the needs of municipalities and road contractors in mind, meaning that it’s designed to handle the road upkeep and rebuilding work, representing a large portion of the grading jobs most often performed in the field.

The SMG200C-8 offers a full range of convenient features that make it both comfortable and easy for the operator to handle. This includes a steering wheel control for roading and joystick controls for grading, an air-conditioned cab and air ride seat with heat, all helping to keep the operator comfortable in any working conditions. Under the hood, a 253-horsepower Cummins QSL9-C250 engine drives the SMG200C-8, which also boasts an 8-speed transmission, operator controlled locking differential and electronically locking rear differential.
