7160 ESCO Corporation launched six new products or expanded product lines at Conexpo.

The Ultralok tooth system, designed specifically for the construction industry, has expanded to fit more machines, including bolt-on adapters for many popular wheeled loaders and several new point shapes for utility and quarry applications.

Ultralok is hammerless and integrated with the point, thus making field replacement safer, easier and faster.

ESCO’s embedded E3 tungsten carbide blades are said to deliver up to five times the wear life of conventional steel blades, while the Deuce blade product now has two rows of tungsten carbide inserts on the bottom edge and E3 tungsten carbide overlay on the blade face.

ESCO’s new Progressive Link Style Hydraulic Thumb retracts close to the boom when not in use, which allows more visibility during digging and the Rigid Style Bucket Thumb is said to be a more economical choice over hydraulic thumbs, featuring three and four-tine options.

The new PosiGrab Coupler design features both front and rear locks that are mechanically engaged through the full working cycle, and can be operated and visually confirmed from the cab.

    Bridgestone has launched three additional tyre lines, each with a specific duty cycle in mind. The DFAS range is initially available in a 17.5R25 size and is intended as an all-weather tyre for graders. The tyre has pyramid-shaped tread blocks with two lateral grooves to rapidly clear snow. As the tyre wears the blocks in effect get wider, providing continued grip in all conditions.

    With an operating weight of 83.8 – 86tonnes, Hitachi’s giant ZX870LCH-5 excavator is said to be built to operate on the most demanding job sites, such as large-scale construction projects and in busy quarries. The model incorporates the HIOS IIIB hydraulic system, said to allow for faster operation with lower fuel consumption and increased front speed. The ZX870LCH-5 is claimed to have 6% more productivity in H/P mode compared to the previous Zaxis model. Swing torque is also said to have increased by 9% an

    January 6, 2017
    A 6% increase in lift capacity, greater digging efficiency, reduced emissions and up to 5% lower fuel consumption are the benefits of Case’s new CX470C excavator. The 47 to 50tonne machine has a 9.8litre Stage IIIB engine delivering 270kW at 2,000rpm which contributes to a 5% increase in fuel efficiency and 5% faster cycle times. Some of the savings come from a Boom Economy Control, which automatically reduces engine revs and hydraulic power to the boom when speed and power are not a priority.
