Atlas Copco showcases portable energy pillars

Atlas Copco’s Portable Energy division says its name change from Portable Air has seen the strategy produce innovation across all five pillars of the division: Air (on-site compressors); Power (on-site generators); Light (on-site light towers); Water (on-site pumps) and Used Equipment. “Our five pillar strategy has enabled us to innovate across the board to become a complete solutions provider for the construction industry,” says Norbert Paprocki, president of the Atlas Copco Portable Energy division. “Our

161 Atlas Copco’s Portable Energy division says its name change from Portable Air has seen the strategy produce innovation across all five pillars of the division:  Air (on-site compressors); Power (on-site generators); Light (on-site light towers); Water (on-site pumps) and Used Equipment.

“Our five pillar strategy has enabled us to innovate across the board to become a complete solutions provider for the construction industry,” says Norbert Paprocki, president of the Atlas Copco Portable Energy division. “Our Genset Management solution is just one example of innovation driven by customer needs that we will be demonstrating at 688 Bauma.”

Among other world and European debuts across these pillars will be the European debut of the QLTS solar light towers from the Light Pillar while the Water Pillar will be showing the latest additions to the WEDA pump range for the first time in Europe.

The Air Pillar, compressors, is finalising the last phase of Stage 3B units and has started developing a dedicated series 7 1265 Kubota compressors for the rental industry, while in the Power Pillar, the division’s new Generator Competence Center in Zaragoza, Spain, is currently rolling out a number of value-centred innovations under the motto of Predictable Power.

“At bauma, Atlas Copco will demonstrate the cost advantages of its Genset Management solution. The new Digital AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulator)  technology with the Qc4002 MkII controller reduce the need to oversize equipment in order to meet start-up requirements, which has a significant impact on generator cost, efficiency and lifespan,” says the company.

  • ZF looks to combine hybrid module with cPower CVT transmission
    April 19, 2013
    ZF used bauma 2013 to show the next stage of development for its cPower continuously variable transmission (CVT). By combining the transmission with a hybrid module, ZF said greater operating efficiencies were available from the integration of start/stop technology and energy recovery from regenerative braking. Potentially, the hybrid drive system has the ability to boost fuel efficiency by up to 25% in addition to the 20% higher operating efficiency already offered by the cPower transmission, said ZF.

This included the arrival of the PowerTechTM PWL 4.5L engine, which meets emissions regulations without a diesel particulate filter (DPF). Spanning outputs from 63-104kW, this four-cylinder, 4.5litre engine offers reduced cost and improves engine packaging by eliminating the DPF, said Deere.
