    Mecalac’s AS900 tele - a rigid chassis all-wheel steer, compact loader - has been given an overhaul for 2012. The 7,250kg machine gets a new cab offering greater visibility, more internal space and quieter in-cab noise levels. A centrally positioned seat affords a clear view of the working environment, with controls integrated into a single joystick. The cab uses two large doors, providing easy access to the cab and with generous soundproofing, the in-cab noise levels have been reduced to 72 dB(A). The

    April 18, 2012
    Mecalac has introduced a rail-road version of its compact 8MCR crawler excavator. The machine has two sets of hydraulically-lowered rail wheels that use the dozer blade circuit to lift it clear of the tracks. The wheels can be set at 1,000mm, 1,435mm and 1,668mm widths, to suit various European rail networks. Activation of the on-rail function automatically turns on all regulatory lighting, limits the working height of the equipment, limits upper structure rotation and activates a load monitoring system.
