The SANY SY285C-9LR is a long-reach excavator meant for large-scale dredging, canal construction, and deep excavation across India. It uses a 173 HP Isuzu engine, delivering higher output for better performance at extended reach distances. With an operating weight of around 28,600 kg, it provides stability during full-extension excavation tasks. The SY285C-9LR reaches a digging depth of over 14 meters, making it suitable for deep canal and riverbed excavations. A bucket capacity of 0.45 to 0.65 m³ ensures efficient material handling for various reach conditions. Its extended boom and arm configuration allows a wider coverage area and reduces the need for repositioning in large project sites. Hydraulic control ensures smooth performance during combined digging and swinging motions. Higher reach capability increases daily output by reducing idle time. Reliable performance across demanding water-based projects supports steady productivity over long periods. It is best suited for irrigation contractors and dredging companies managing large-scale waterway excavations.
