Thanks for the clarification. I did understand your initial point, though. I found it interesting that they appear to be making a play for the North American market.
Guy I know bought a Chinese-made lathe and was pretty impressed at what he got for the price. I know next to nothing about heavy machinery. What was your impression of Sany's stuff - was it throwaway junk or was it somewhat usable?
I'm not a heavy equipment operator, so my opinion isn't really worth anything regarding their quality. But you are right, they definitely appear to be trying to make a big impression in North America.
