JCB is introducing a new three model range of breakers
JCB is introducing new hydraulic breakers to meet a range of customer needs. The larger HM870Q, HM1270Q and HM1570Q hydraulic breakers feature stainless steel components in critical areas as well as sealed for life accumulators, both of which boost operating life. Performance has been increased due to improved hydraulics, boosting efficiency and reducing noise while the breakers are said to have high power to weight ratios compared with rival units.

JCB hydraulic breakers, live at INTERMAT 2012
255 JCB is introducing new hydraulic breakers to meet a range of customer needs. The larger HM870Q, HM1270Q and HM1570Q hydraulic breakers feature stainless steel components in critical areas as well as sealed for life accumulators, both of which boost operating life. Performance has been increased due to improved hydraulics, boosting efficiency and reducing noise while the breakers are said to have high power to weight ratios compared with rival units. These larger breaker models suit carriers in the 10-28tonne class and features include a large diameter tool, automatic tool greasing and heavy duty brackets, all of which help increase wear life. There are also four smaller breakers, for carriers weighing 2-12tonnes, which share some of the same features as the larger units.
Ritchie Bros Auctioneers’ first multi-million pound auction at its new regional site in Donington Park, UK, was shown live at INTERMAT. The company registered more than 630 online and on-site bidders from 50 countries to bid on more than 675 heavy plant equipment items and trucks. Two unused Volvo L90F wheeled loaders sold to an online bidder from Australia for €147,000 each.
Two new short radius excavators are being introduced by Case Construction Equipment at INTERMAT. The Japanese-built CX235C SR and a prototype CX145C SR use low emission Isuzu engines with cooled EGR and a DPF to meet stage IIIB emissions requirements, and Case reckoned the new engines provide a 17.5% fuel consumption improvement over previous models, while simultaneously delivering up to 7% cent faster cycle times.

Atlas is now offering its own range of hydraulic breakers. These units are offered with operating weights from 135kg--5.7tonnes and can be used on machines right across the firm’s own excavator range. The firm says that its breakers are designed to absorb impact, reducing wear and tear on the carrier and absorbing vibration, lengthening hose life. A system regulates the number of blows to keep working frequency constant under all conditions. A lubrication system extends component life while all the units ca
