Selangor, 1 July 2022 – Tan Chong Industrial Equipment Sdn Bhd (TCIE), the sole distributor of UD Trucks delivered a Quester with vacuum loader worth 2.4 million ringgit to Duromac today. Quester is a heavy-duty truck that combines first-class fuel efficiency with durability designed to fit into different customers’ expectations. 

Quester is an evolution truck that provides the smarter solution in today’s challenging transportation world. The combination of global technology and Japanese craftsmanship gives Quester the flexibility to suit across a variety of applications and ease of superstructure installation, making it a suitable choice for Duromac

The handover ceremony was held at Duromac headquarters located in Puchong and witnessed by senior management of Duromac, UD Trucks and TCIE. Both TCIE and Duromac had worked very closely on this project for almost 1 year to deliver the first DISAB heavy-duty Vacloader truck in South East Asia.

“We are honoured to be given this opportunity to work together with Duromac in introducing the first heavy-duty Vacloader truck in South East Asia. Their trust in TCIE enable us to go the extra mile and embark on this challenging project since last year. We are truly thankful to Duromac for their confidence and support to TCIE for the past 26 years,” said Say Teck Ming, Executive Director of TCIE.

The DISAB Centurion LN20 is designed for industrial applications suitable for suctioning, discharging and transportation of solid or liquid materials and it mounts perfectly on the Quester CGE84R11MS. The extremely good suction features make it appropriate for industries such as cement, lime, chemicals, plastics, foundries, steelworks, quarries, pulp & paper, shipyards and energy. 

The DISAB Centurion LN20 is equipped with a separate diesel engine which makes it possible for the vacloader to operate independently of the truck. Offering extremely good suction and blow features, the round tank design makes it suitable for handling both wet, dry, oils, stones, rocks and many other materials. The LN20 also possesses great flexibility for different applications with multiple add-ons available. The tank comes with a choice of 10m3 or 12m3, a robotic hose boom which extends up to 15 meters and is operated using a handheld radio remote control for an optimised ergonomically experience for the operator.

“The vehicle is used to clean up spillages or empty tanks in a variety of industrial applications. It can suck up liquid, slurry or dry materials by vacuum at a pressure of 950 millibars and then blow them out again or empty contents by tipping,” said Premraj Das, Group Chief Operating Officer of Duromac.

TCIE has an extensive network of service centres and dealerships nationwide. Any purchase of UD trucks will be supported by UD Extra Mile Support services which include UD Genuine Service and Parts, UD Driver Training, UD Telematics and UD Trust Service Agreements for customers.
