03Why this machine
Six things every operator notices in the first hundred hours.
The L960Hiis engineered around two metrics that decide a machine's life: cost-per-tonne and time-between-failures. Everything below is a deliberate trade-off in favour of both.
01 / 06
Proven engine block
Tier-3 diesel delivers rated kW — proven over millions of duty hours in Indian sites.
02 / 06
Heavy-duty powershift
Fixed-shaft powershift transmission engineered to hold up under 14-hour shifts on hard faces and abrasive aggregate.
03 / 06
Reinforced drive axles
Front and rear axles with wet disc brakes — sized for the L-series operating weight in sustained mining cycles.
04 / 06
Operator-first cab
Pressurised, low-vibration cabin with air-suspension seat, digital cluster and panoramic visibility.
05 / 06
High breakout force
High-pressure hydraulics dig through compacted aggregate without losing cycle time. Tuned bucket geometry per duty cycle.
06 / 06
Easy-access service
Tilt-up bonnet, ground-level fluid checks. Designed to reduce downtime in remote mining and port sites.
04Where it earns
Proven duty cycles across India.
The L960Hi slots into fleets from PMGSY rural roads to NHAI highway packages and large port stockyards. These four duty cycles drive most deployments.
02
Quarry & aggregates
Granite and basalt loading. High breakout force on hard, blasted faces.
03
Port logistics
Bulk handling at coastal terminals. Light-material buckets for high-throughput stockyards.
04
Material handling
Cement plants, steel yards and RMC sites. Long working hours, low cost-per-tonne.
