    Deutz used bauma to show two hybrid projects it is currently working on, including a hybrid drive for excavators and an innovative start/stop system for compact wheeled loaders. The hybrid drive is based on using a 160kW Deutz TCD 6.1 L6 engine with an integrated motor-generator. The engine is linked to an on-board electrical power network that uses super capacitors, a power inverter and an electric slew motor, allowing components to harvest, store and use electrical energy, specifically for slewing functio

    Bauma will be the platform for Soilmec’s next generation of hydraulic drilling rigs for large diameter piles and smaller drilling rigs for micropiles and anchoring. The new rigs have been designed by the ground engineering specialist to improve productivity and operating flexibility and are installed with tier 3 and 4 diesel engines. Powerful and lightweight rotaries have allowed torque levels to increase by up to 20% and the units use high-strength steels. To further improve safety and efficiency, they als

  • Faster than a speeding cow – your local bus maybe?
    May 22, 2015
    A methane-powered bus has set a speed record for a regular city bus of nearly 124km/h at a test track in the UK, according to media reports. The bus, from the southern city of Reading, was converted to run on compressed methane from cow manure and was painted black and white like a Friesian cow. Mechanics removed the bus’s engine governor that restricted the vehicle’s speed to 90km/h. The bus then broke the record on the banked high-speed circuit at Millbrook Proving Ground, near the city of Bedford.
