Official dealer ES Zeppelin Turkmenistan JV offers SEM brand motor graders on the Turkmen market with a full range of service in Ashgabat and the Balkan velayat. The equipment is manufactured with engineering support from Caterpillar Inc. and is adapted for operation in extremely high temperatures.

The SEM road construction equipment line includes four basic motor grader models, among which the SEM922F AWD is particularly popular. This 17.7-ton machine is equipped with a 162 kW power unit and is designed for heavy-duty earthmoving, grading, and road surface leveling in challenging climates.

Technological advantage

 A key competitive advantage of SEM motor graders is the integration of Caterpillar's PPPC hydraulic system.Adaptive technology reduces cycle times by combining hydraulic functions with different loads. Cylinder extension speed is independent of engine speed, ensuring predictable system operation and highly precise control of the work equipment.

The robust box-section drawbar frame is constructed from solid steel with no welds in critical load areas. This A-frame design provides the necessary torsional rigidity when working in dense soils and generates high blade downforce. Classic lever controls ensure predictable response from all machine components.

Reducing operating costs

SEM engineers developed a special axle design with maintenance-free tandem chains, allowing for increased oil change intervals to 2 000 engine hours. The standard configuration includes a set of wear spacers that are easily replaced or adjusted and installed to reduce wear on the motor grader's primary components.

As an option, owners can install a slip clutch, which protects the blade teeth and the drive mechanism when the blade edge hits obstacles, as well as a hydraulic locking device for the blade linkage, significantly simplifying blade positioning. 

Flexible configuration

Buyers can choose the optimal attachment based on the specific tasks they perform. The catalog includes a front-mounted blade, a ripper with three or five teeth, and a nine-tooth scarifier for working in hard soils.

A 7-position rotary control allows the operator to quickly set the desired blade position directly from the cab. The blade's large lateral reach increases productivity when grading. For specific tasks, the blade can be switched to a floating mode, where it touches the surface without applying much pressure, precisely following the road surface.

Ergonomics and comfort 

The spacious cab is located on the front frame, providing the operator with excellent visibility of the work area. The blade and front wheels remain visible even when turning. Cab volume is 30% larger than that of competing models, significantly reducing operator fatigue throughout the work shift.

Service support

ES Zeppelin Turkmenistan JV ensures the reliable and uninterrupted operation of SEM equipment throughout Turkmenistan. Service centers and mobile teams in Ashgabat and the Balkan velayat guarantee prompt technical support and qualified service. The company supports clients throughout the entire process, from selecting the optimal equipment to scheduled maintenance.
