Ask a QuestionWheel Loaders
1-2t / 3-4t / 5-7tWhat wheel loader bucket capacity does Lonking offer?
Lonking wheel loaders are available across multiple tonnage classes, with bucket capacities suited to material handling from roughly 1 to 5+ cubic metres. Our 1-2t, 3-4t and 5-7t series let you match the bucket and payload to your truck size and daily workload.
What engines do Lonking wheel loaders use?
Lonking wheel loaders are powered by leading engine brands including Weichai and Xinchai, with models available to meet Tier 2, Euro V and Tier 4F emission standards. This gives buyers flexible power options for different markets and regulatory requirements.
How do I choose the right Lonking wheel loader for my operation?
First match the machine to your material type and typical bucket load, then consider the bucket capacity you need to keep loading cycles efficient. For sizing advice tied to your specific application, contact our sales team and we will recommend the right model.
Are spare parts and after-sales service available internationally?
Yes. Lonking maintains a global service and genuine parts network. Each wheel loader is supported with factory-direct spare parts supply and technical support to keep your machine working wherever your site is located.
Excavators
Mid to 30t & long reachWhat excavator classes does Lonking produce?
Lonking produces mid-size and large excavators, covering operating weights from the mid range up to the 30t class, and also offers wheel excavators and long-reach configurations for specialist digging, trenching and material-handling work.
Which engines do Lonking excavators use?
Lonking excavators are built around reliable engine brands such as Cummins, Isuzu, Yanmar and Nissan, with emission options from Tier 2 through Euro V and Tier 4F to suit different regional standards.
Can Lonking excavators be customized with long reach or a canopy?
Yes. Long-reach excavator configurations and canopy (open) cabs are available across several of our models, so you can tailor the machine to dredging, deep excavation, low-headroom sites or hot-climate operation.
Are Lonking excavators cost-effective?
Lonking excavators are factory-direct from one of the world’s largest construction machinery manufacturers, offering strong value on purchase price while retaining the durability, parts availability and support expected of an established global brand.
Forklifts
Electric & dieselElectric or diesel forklift: which is better?
It depends on your application. Electric forklifts are quieter, emission-free and cheaper to run over their lifetime, making them ideal for indoor warehouses and distribution centres. Diesel forklifts suit outdoor, heavy-duty jobsites where fast refuelling and high lifting capacity matter.
What lifting capacity do Lonking forklifts offer?
Lonking produces both electric and diesel forklifts covering a practical lifting capacity range for warehouse, logistics and industrial material handling, with models matched to common load weights from light to medium-heavy duty.
What industries use Lonking forklifts?
Lonking forklifts are used across manufacturing, logistics and warehousing, e-commerce fulfilment and distribution centres, where reliable, efficient material handling is essential to daily throughput.
Are spare parts and battery options available internationally?
Yes. Lonking supports its forklifts globally with factory-direct genuine parts, and electric models are backed by the battery and charging support you need to keep your fleet running.
Road Rollers
A9 / B / D / DD seriesSingle drum or double drum road roller: which is right for me?
Single drum rollers are the standard choice for soil, subgrade and granular base compaction in earthwork. Double drum (tandem) rollers are preferred for asphalt paving, where they produce a smooth, sealed finish across nearly the full width on each pass.
What compaction width does a Lonking road roller offer?
Lonking produces road rollers across the A9, B, D and DD series, with drum widths and static linear loads matched to different compaction depths and productivity requirements, from site preparation through larger road-building projects.
What are the differences between the A9, B, D and DD roller series?
Each Lonking series is engineered for a specific working range – from lighter, more manoeuvrable models for confined sites to heavier, higher-output single and double drum units for large earthwork and asphalt projects. Our sales team can match the right series to your job.
Why is hydrostatic transmission important on a road roller?
Hydrostatic transmission gives smooth, infinitely variable speed control, which is critical for keeping a consistent compaction pace and achieving target density without over-compacting. Many Lonking rollers use hydrostatic drive for this reason.
Skid Steer & Compact Track Loaders
Wheeled & track versionsWheel skid steer or compact track loader: which should I choose?
Wheels are better on paved yards, compacted gravel and concrete where you value speed and lower maintenance. Compact track loaders (CTLs) are the better choice on mud, soft or sandy ground and where you need to minimise ground disturbance on turf or finished grades.
What is rated operating capacity (ROC) and how does it matter?
ROC is the maximum safe working load a skid steer can lift and carry, and it determines whether the machine can handle your bucket size, palletised loads and heavier powered attachments. Choosing a machine with the right ROC is the first step in matching it to your work.
What attachments can a Lonking skid steer use?
Lonking skid steer loaders accept a wide range of attachments – buckets, pallet forks, augers, breakers, sweepers and more – so one machine can handle loading, grading, landscaping and demolition tasks across the jobsite.
What engine options and emission standards do Lonking skid steers offer?
Lonking skid steer and compact track loaders are available with a range of engine options, including models meeting Tier 2, Euro V and Tier 4F standards, so you can comply with regional emissions rules while keeping the power your attachments need.
