The Hyundai HX380VL is a mainstay model of the 38-ton class, carrying a standard 1.95 m³ large-capacity bucket for high-intensity scenes such as mine extraction, large-scale earth and stone loading, foundation excavation and stone crushing. With Scania power and the FEH fully electronically controlled hydraulic system, it balances strong output, fuel economy, whole-machine durability and a smart operating experience — the preferred machine for high-efficiency production in heavy-duty engineering.

From its Scania DC09 engine and third-generation SPC smart power control to the reinforced structure, upgraded long undercarriage and new-generation HX smart cab, the HX380VL is built to keep cost per tonne low in the toughest loading and crushing duties. This guide covers its five core advantages, plus the export and after-sales support available through Tianheng Construction Machinery.

Quick Specifications: Hyundai HX380VL

Scania Power with Smart Control: Lower Cost, Higher Efficiency

Scania DC09: 214 kW with ample reserve

The Hyundai HX380VL is powered by a Scania DC09 engine rated at 214 kW. Whole-machine power reserve is ample, output stays stable even in harsh and complex conditions, and the low failure rate keeps full-lifecycle maintenance cost lower.

Third-generation SPC: 4–6% fuel optimization

The third-generation SPC smart power control system dynamically coordinates engine and hydraulic pump output according to real-time working load, achieving 4–6% fuel consumption optimization. Power and energy consumption stay in dynamic balance — heavy load and light fuel consumption coexist.

FEH Fully Electronic Hydraulics: Large Flow, Higher Efficiency

Refined electronic control, less ineffective loss

The new FEH fully electronically controlled hydraulic architecture applies refined electronic control to the main pump and main valve, effectively reducing ineffective loss in the hydraulic circuit.

Bosch large-displacement pump with first-line valves and motors

An imported Bosch large-displacement electronically controlled main pump delivers rapid electric signal response and sufficient flow supply, with smooth compound-action feeding. The main valve, travel and swing motors all adopt industry first-line brand components, giving the whole hydraulic system high reliability — fully matching large-bucket loading, crushing and other heavy-load duties.

Reinforced Structure and Upgraded Undercarriage: Stable in Harsh Conditions

Heavy-duty front: 6.5 m boom and 2.9 m arm

The working equipment is upgraded to heavy-duty specifications with a 6.5 m boom and 2.9 m arm for a wider working envelope. The boom root adopts high-strength cast-steel components, key plates are thickened and cylinder bases are reinforced — improving impact and fatigue resistance.

Long undercarriage: five support rollers, 2,680 mm gauge

The undercarriage adopts a long-track design with five support rollers, and the track gauge reaches 2,680 mm — greatly improving whole-machine ground stability when loading, swinging and digging over the side.

Independent water tank and oil-electric separation cooling

An independent water tank and oil-electric separation cooling scheme strengthen heat dissipation in high-temperature environments, avoiding overheating failures and guaranteeing continuous long-duration operation.

New-Generation HX Smart Cab: A Full Human-Machine Upgrade

360° view, heated suspension seat, vibration damping

The cab offers a 360° open field of view with optimized sealing that reduces dust intrusion. A heated premium suspension seat combined with the vibration-damping suspension system effectively buffers working impact and vibration over long shifts.

8-inch touch screen, smart key and one-key switching

The 8-inch smart touch screen supports power mode and auxiliary hydraulic parameter settings. A newly added smart key enables one-button start with keyless entry, the forward/reverse lever switches with one key to match different operator habits, and a cab room light meets night-time construction lighting needs.

Complete Safety Configuration: Convenience and Protection Together

Lower protective net and complete lighting

A lower protective net is fitted at the factory to resist crushing rock impact, and the complete cab lighting layout keeps night working vision well guaranteed. Across the machine, safety protection and operating convenience are balanced: multiple humanized configurations reduce operator labor intensity, safeguard construction safety and further improve overall equipment attendance.

Best-Fit Applications for the HX380VL

• Mine extraction: The 1.95 m³ bucket and Scania reserve handle continuous mine loading cycles.

• Large-scale earth and stone loading: FEH large-flow hydraulics keep compound loading actions smooth and fast.

• Foundation excavation: Long undercarriage and 2,680 mm gauge deliver stability for deep, heavy digging.

• Stone crushing duties: Reinforced front and stable cooling suit hammer and crushing-plant feeding work.

• High-intensity fleet work: SPC fuel optimization and low failure rate protect cost per tonne across long shifts.
