    January 6, 2017
    Engineering firm Ricardo is part way through a research programme to develop an advanced energy recovery system that can be integrated into an excavator’s hydraulic system. Known as the High Efficiency Excavator (HFX) project, the system uses a 5kg carbon fibre flywheel that is encased in a vacuum-sealed cartridge, which contributes to minimising friction. The flywheel is spun at speeds of up to 30,000rpm using a magnetic coupling, which is driven from a hydraulic motor. Power for the hydraulic motor comes

    February 8, 2013
    MOBA continues to develop its novel MDS-2000 drilling system. This package has already proven itself in use for blast hole drilling in many operations and can now be used to record the orientation of the machine with GNSS antennae and the height using laser reference. With telesupport, MOBA also offers fast service through an Internet connection. By recording the machine orientation using two GNSS antennae, the torsion on the machine can be determined with very high accuracy and included in the calculation

    Bolivia has started work on the new northern La Paz road, a five-year, US$250 million project. Work is underway on the first section, known as Apolo Charasani, while the second section, called Charasani-Escoma, is still under analysis. World Highways reported in September that Bolivia planned to invest nearly $510 million for road building works. The country’s state-run road company, Administradora Boliviana de Carreteras, said 32 road maintenance and construction projects stretching for 5,773km in Sant
