The Dash 3 paver series gets EcoPlus - a package aimed at making significant reductions in fuel consumption and noise levels.

A switchable transfer gearbox allows hydraulic pumps to be by-passed when they are not needed. A variable-speed fan is another example of energy efficiency, whose speed is tweaked according to charge air, coolant temperature and hydraulic oil temperature.

Vögele Super 2100-3i operators also get a revised platform with a larger colour display. AutoSet enables the paver to be moved quickly and easily on the job site. At the push of a button, hopper sides and the hydraulic hopper front are folded up, the deflectors in front of the tracks are raised, the augers moved into their uppermost position and the screed is raised and locked in place.

An automatic docking function called PaveDock, is another new feature on the Super 2100-3i. It absorbs impacts from the feeder, and any lorry movements required during the feeding process are communicated to the lorry driver using a set of signals.

    April 18, 2013
    Bonfiglioli has developed an electric drum drive for the new hybrid truck mixer from CIFA, the concrete equipment specialist owned by Chinese manufacturer Zoomlion. The 500 series drum drive with electric motor offers drum rotation speeds from 15-22rpm and is suited to mixer capacities from 6-14m3. The drivetrain relies on an AC induction motor to turn the drum, which gets its power from an on-board battery pack. The electric drum drive can also be powered by mains electricity – the latter can be plugged in

    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

    January 6, 2017
    Wirtgen’s novel inspection system offers a quick indication of wear rates on the cutting tools of the firm’s surface miners. Called the Wirtgen Pick Inspection (WPI) system, this tool comprises eight sensors that can make fast measurements and which are integrated into the cutting drum compartment of the surface miner. The sensors measure the degree of wear of the picks and the measuring process takes just one minute to complete, allowing it to carried out while changing trucks and reducing downtimes. The W
