2424 Rivard RIV1403 TC1755 is a chainsaw trencher suitable for creating large trenches for major underground power, gas, fibre optic, water, irrigation or sewer project works. 
 
With a 387hp engine and weighing in at 32tonnes, the high output capacity machine can be fitted with different chains and can create a maximum trench width of 600mm and depth of 1,700mm. Debris created by the TC1755 is removed by a conveyor system.

According to Rivard, the TC1755 has been mostly used in communication and energy supply projects since its launch in July 2011. The firm is keen to showcase its potential benefits to wider customers.

    Paris-based Arcure has developed the sophisticated Blaxtair safety camera system for use with off-highway equipment to reduce risks for site personnel. This camera helps detect obstacles, locate them precisely and identify them. Highly sophisticated, the Blaxtair unit can distinguish pedestrians from other objects in real time. When a pedestrian is detected in the danger zone, Blaxtair emits a sonic alarm to the driver that increases with the imminence of the danger. A control screen in the cabin allows the

    Following the success of its 8MCR high-speed compact excavator, Mecalac has developed a larger, heavier model, called the 10MCR. Like the smaller machine introduced in 2009, this new model combines the speed and manoeuvrability of a skid steer loader with the functionality of a midi excavator. Weighing in at nine tones and using a 75kW turbocharged diesel engine, the new model retains Mecalac’s MCR concept and uses a triangular track frame profile, which affords fast travel speeds in both directions usin
