Recently, Shantui's SD32F bulldozer has successfully completed trial testing, one of the final phases of product development. The SD32F is designed for forestry applications, developed by the Shantui R&D Center in response to demands from a variety of sectors such as logging and rubber production. While some Shantui models already possess forestry modifications, such as the 130-horsepower SD13 and 160-horsepower SD16, a higher powered model was lacking.

In keeping with the recent drive to improve Shantui's technological quality and following the precedent of providing machines for a variety of applications, the Shantui R&D Center created a research team to carry out the product development process, selecting the popular 320-horsepower SD32 model as a candidate. Already possessing swamp and desert variants, adding a forestry variant was a natural progression. The team carried out machine analysis, structural design, and working device modification. After detailed research and thorough testing, yet another machine will soon be added to Shantui's lineup of value-leading bulldozers.
