SH180LC-6 Sumitomo excavator specs & Dimensions (2020 - 2026)

Safety and Operator Comfort

Planning for safety in the event of a roll accident, a new strengthened safety cabin has been provided. The reinforced cabin greatly increases the operator’s safety.

Newly Designed Strengthened Safety Cabin

The optimised design and strengthened parts increase the overall cabin strength. Even if the shovel were to tip over, the safety of the operator is ensured by keeping cabin deformation to a minimum.

Engine and Hydraulics

SH180LC-6 has achieved a 7% reduction in fuel consumption in comparison with our DASH 5 series, by fusing the new generation engine system "SPACE 5+" and the new hydraulic system "SIH:S+", further refining fuel efficiency. At the same time the newly developed ISUZU engine contributes greatly to the environment. SUMITOMO's original technology Spool Stroke Control (SSC) perfectly matches the engine and hydraulic power, and further improves the operational speed whilst maintaining smooth control of the machine.

New Generation Engine System "SPACE 5+"

The new engine system optimises fuel efficiency and environmental performance via the advanced common rail fuel injection system, cooled EGR system, and turbocharger. At the same time, excellent response times are achieved.

Work Efficiency Drastically Increased

Spool Stroke Control (SSC) variably controls spool port flow rate, depending on the condition of operation. Improved power, speed, and smoother controls mean that work efficiency is dramatically increased.

2% Faster Cycle Time (SP mode)

Speed increase by 2% in cycle time has been achieved, giving further advance in productivity (as compared with SH160-5 [SP mode]).

Automatic Power Boost

The digging power increases automatically in quick response to the working conditions during heavy-duty digging work. This is a design unique to SUMITOMO, and continues for eight seconds (SP/H mode).

Operating Condition Easily Viewable on Display

Various control such as working modes and auxiliary hydraulic setting can be easily selected by the universally designed switch panel, and what’s being selected can be easily viewed on the 7” wide monitor.

Safe and Easy Entry into and Exit from the Cab

A large handrail for easy opening/closing of the door and increased floor space permit the operator to get in and out of the cab easily.

New Cab Suspension Mounts

The new cab suspension mounts reduce vibration and impact transmitted to the cabin, and improve the operator’s sitting quality and reduce operator fatigue. The sealed and pressurised cabin prevents entry of dust from outside.

Safety and Operator Comfort

The spacious cab on suspension mounts and reclining suspension seat help reduce operator fatigue and provide a relaxed environment. To support the operator in the field, the DASH 6 incorporates a 7" wide full-colour LCD monitor with numerous functions and universally designed switch panel. The cabin with enhanced operator comfort ensures a safe working environment.

Stylish and Spacious Cab

Wide cab space and floor space ensure more comfortable operation. In addition to the tilting console that is adjustable in four steps vertically, the increased sliding distance ensures optimum working conditions. Moreover, in cab noise level has been reduced by 2dB (as compared with SH160-5).

Sophisticated Reclining Seat

The seat reclining system allows the operator to lay the seat flat and to rest on site without having to remove the headrest. The suspension seat eliminates vibration and fatigue. Air suspension is also available as option.

Large High-Definition LCD Monitor

A new large high-definition full-colour LCD monitor has been introduced with better visibility and a switch panel which is easy to operate. Added functionality such as ECO gauge showing parameter of energy saving, display of operation status and warning messages, provides accurate information which improves work efficiency and safety.

Rearview Camera (option)

With the rearview camera, the operator can view the image on the large LCD monitor. A side camera is available as an option and up to two different images can be displayed on the monitor.

Automatic Air Conditioner

Fully automatic climate control is available through the eight vents, with an 8% stronger A/C unit, and a 24% improvement in airflow. (as compared with SH160-5).
