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.

    January 6, 2017
    Doosan Construction Equipment has shown a prototype of its 6tonne DX62R-3, a replacement for the DX60R. Due to be launched in the second half of the year, the machine delivers a 33% increase in hydraulic flow from a new load sensing system. Digging forces are said to be greatly improved, with bucket force now up to 4,400kg, and increase of 7%, while dipper arm force is up to 2.9tonnes. This improved performance has been combined with a longer arm for a larger working range. The machine uses the same cab tha

  • Sophisticated weighing for loaders
    January 28, 2014
    Sophisticated on-board weighing systems for use with wheeled loaders and excavators are being offered by Loup Electronics. The innovative LOADEX 100 is a retrofittable scale installed on tracked and wheeled excavators and material handlers to weigh the amount of material load in the bucket or grab. Pressure signals are captured, filtered and corrected by measuring the angle of the main boom using either an RDS Inclinometer or Mechanical Angle sensor. When used dynamically, the pressures are captured through
