From land preparation and water infrastructure to large-scale earthmoving and material handling, Benetrax offers powerful machinery designed to help farmers, agricultural contractors and rural developers get more done.

Agriculture is about more than planting seeds and harvesting crops. It requires preparation, infrastructure, efficient resource management and the ability to work against the clock when conditions are right. Whether developing new farmland, clearing land, constructing dams, maintaining farm roads or handling bulk materials, having the right machinery can make a significant difference to productivity and profitability.

Benetrax brings that capability within reach with a versatile range of heavy-duty equipment, including the Sunward SWE210F-2 excavator, D200H and D350 bulldozers, and Ensign YX638H wheel loader. Each machine offers distinct advantages, helping agricultural businesses tackle demanding tasks with greater efficiency, strength and confidence.

Sunward SWE210F-2: Dig deeper, develop further

Land and water are the foundations of successful farming. From excavating irrigation channels and drainage systems to preparing dams, shaping farm roads and digging foundations for agricultural infrastructure, the Benetrax Sunward SWE210F-2 excavator is built to handle substantial earthmoving tasks.

With an operating weight of 21,3 tonnes, a 1,0m³ bucket capacity and a maximum digging depth of 6,75 m, this crawler excavator offers the reach and capacity required for demanding projects. Its crawler configuration is particularly valuable on uneven terrain, where stable movement and working capability are essential.

Powered by a six-cylinder, four-stroke, water-cooled engine, the SWE210F-2 combines substantial digging capability with a design focused on performance and practical maintenance. Sunward has developed hydraulic crawler excavators since 1999, and its machines are exported to more than 60 countries and regions worldwide.

For farmers, the benefits are tangible: more efficient excavation, improved progress on infrastructure projects and greater flexibility when developing or maintaining agricultural land. Investing in a capable excavator can also reduce dependence on outside contractors for suitable jobs, giving farm businesses greater control over project timing and costs.

Benetrax D200H: Strength to shape the land

When land needs clearing, ground needs levelling or large volumes of soil need moving, the Benetrax D200H bulldozer delivers the muscle to keep projects moving.

Driven by a six-cylinder, turbocharged and intercooled Shanghai SC7H210 diesel engine, the D200H is designed for heavy-duty earthmoving. Its impressive 258 kN drawbar pull and 4,3m³ semi-U blade capacity provide the pushing power needed for substantial material-moving operations.

On farms, this capability can support the development of access roads, the levelling of suitable agricultural sites, the construction of earth embankments and the preparation of land for infrastructure. Its heavy-duty undercarriage and reinforced chassis are designed for demanding working environments, while the spacious cab, visibility and intuitive controls help operators work more comfortably during long shifts.

With a 297-litre diesel fuel capacity, the D200H is equipped for extended working periods between refuelling stops, depending on operating conditions and fuel consumption. For agricultural contractors and larger farming operations, it offers a practical combination of pushing power, durability and versatility.

Benetrax D350: Big power for big projects

For operations where scale matters, the Benetrax D350 bulldozer steps up with formidable earthmoving capability. Its six-cylinder Cummins NTA855-C360S10 engine, producing a maximum torque of 1,140 Nm at 1 400 rpm, is designed to deliver strong performance under demanding loads.

With an operating weight of 41 tonnes, a drawbar pull of 318 kN and an impressive 11,9m³ dozing capacity, the D350 is suited to major earthmoving projects where substantial quantities of material must be shifted efficiently.

Agricultural applications include large-scale land development, farm dam construction, extensive roadworks, earthworks for irrigation infrastructure and the establishment of large agricultural or agro-industrial facilities. Its reinforced frame, rugged undercarriage and heavy-duty blade construction are designed to withstand challenging working conditions.

The 640-litre diesel fuel capacity supports operations requiring substantial working time between refuelling, subject to workload and fuel consumption. For agricultural enterprises, contractors and rural development projects handling major volumes of earth, the D350 provides the scale and strength to take on demanding work.

Ensign YX638H: Move more, work smarter

Moving harvested produce, soil, sand, gravel, fertiliser and other bulk materials is a daily requirement across many agricultural operations. The Benetrax Ensign YX638H wheel loader helps streamline these tasks by combining lifting capability, manoeuvrability and material-handling versatility.

With a rated load of 3 000kg, a standard 1,8 m³ bucket and optional bucket capacities ranging from 1,2 m³ to 3 m³, the YX638H can be configured for different working requirements. Its 2 960 mm dump height supports loading operations, while its 30-degree gradeability offers useful capability on appropriate slopes and working surfaces.

On farms, the loader can help move soil during land preparation, load aggregates for road maintenance, handle bulk materials and support the movement of suitable agricultural commodities. For mixed farming operations, its versatility makes it a valuable asset across multiple work areas.

By mechanising repetitive loading and handling tasks, the YX638H can help reduce manual labour requirements, improve workflow and keep materials moving where they are needed.

Invest in productivity with Benetrax

Agricultural success increasingly depends on making the most of available time, labour and resources. The right machinery helps turn demanding projects into manageable operations, whether the priority is digging deeper, pushing more earth or moving materials efficiently.

With the Sunward SWE210F-2, D200H, D350 and Ensign YX638H, Benetrax offers equipment suited to a range of earthmoving and material-handling requirements.

The real value of machinery lies in what it makes possible: better-prepared land, stronger farm infrastructure and more efficient operations. For farmers and agricultural contractors planning their next stage of growth, Benetrax is a name worth considering.
