2197 Ascorel’s latest weighing systems for equipment such as wheeled loaders are now available with new temperature sensors for improved accuracy and quicker results when operating in extreme conditions.

The temperature adjusts the weight according to the temperature fluctuations of the hydraulic fluid, enabling the operator to zero the bucket less often.

Other features of MC 382 and MC 402 include a new user interface, an integrated help menu and the ability to recall a load that has been deleted from the running total or to subtract a load that was only partially loaded. Any tickets from earlier jobs can also be reprinted. The keyboard response is now faster than before, aiding tasks such as scrolling through a long list of customers.

Ascorel has recently refocused its operations into three business units. Ascorel Scales will handle its entire line of on-board weighing systems. Ascorel Construction provides anti-collision systems for tower and mobile cranes as well as ancillary devices such as remote control. Ascorel Controls covers the company’s safe load indicators, control command systems and other OEM products.

    January 6, 2017
    Liebherr has developed a hybrid drive system for its HS8300HD heavy duty cycle crawler crane. The 350 tonne machine generates electrical power from its hydraulic free-fall winches, which offer up to 50 tonnes of line pull. Under this Pactronic system surplus energy is stored in a hydraulic accumulator and regenerated to assist the engine, reducing fuel consumption. This reuse of energy also cuts emissions from the machine.

  • INTERMAT launch for Doosan DX180LC-3
    January 6, 2017
    The DX180LC-3 is the first of Doosan’s mid-range stage IIIB compliant excavators. Powered by a Doosan DL06 common rail six-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine, this 18tonne excavator uses a combination of EGR and DPF to meet emissions legislation. As a result, the new engine offers more power and torque than the stage IIIA DX180LC, and the potential to save 5-10% fuel consumption. A new cab offers greater room for the operator, while more glass helps visibility. Joysticks now feature new proportional thumb
