New Holland is introducing new models of heavy-duty crawler excavators. The E385C and E485C are in the 35tonne and 48tonne category respectively. New Holland said that they have been built to deal with the most demanding applications and harshest conditions. The latest models offer more power and fast cycles with new Tier 4 interim engines and new hydraulics. Fuel consumption is improved through the new hydraulics and new ECO working mode.

New Holland is introducing new models of heavy-duty crawler excavators. The E385C and E485C are in the 35tonne and 48tonne category respectively. 

New Holland said that they have been built to deal with the most demanding applications and harshest conditions. The latest models offer more power and fast cycles with new Tier 4 interim engines and new hydraulics. Fuel consumption is improved through the new hydraulics and new ECO working mode. 

The E385C and E485C crawler excavators feature 286 hp and 363 hp engines respectively and meet the strict Tier 4 interim emissions standards with Cooled Exhaust Gas Recirculation (CEGR) technology. The CEGR system is fully integrated into the design of the two new models.

The Hydrotonic system combines electronic technology with a hydraulic system and has been designed to maximise the machines’ performance according to the job being carried out.

The company said that the high efficiency of the hydraulics ensures 100% pump usage in all applications. The hydraulic design has been developed to minimise friction losses and pressure drops, economising on fuel. 

The upgraded New Holland Advanced Electronic Processor introduces a new ECO working mode for optimised fuel consumption. The control monitor puts the operator in control of the efficiency of the machine’s performance, with the fuel economy meter showing the hourly consumption and the ECO Icon indicating when the machine is operating most efficiently.

    Caterpillar has developed new long reach excavators for applications needing deep digging or excavating at extended distances. The machines can be used for working in sand and gravel pits, shaping long slopes, and cleaning settling ponds. The new models can be used for digging and lifting applications as they features large buckets and heavy-duty high/wide undercarriages that provide added stability over the side. These special-application 340F and 352F machines are designed by Caterpillar engineers. Th

    February 14, 2012
    New generation wheeled pavers aimed at use in territories such as the UK, Italy, South Africa and Southern Germany are now coming to market. Pavers in these countries are often expected to be driven from one part of a site to another or for short distances, which is why the additional mobility of the wheeled machine is preferred in many instances over similarly-sized tracked models. This preference for wheeled units comes in spite of the greater stability offered by tracked machines. BOMAG, Caterpillar and

    Advances in transmission technology will help to optimise machine performance – writes Mike Woof. As construction machines have become more sophisticated, so have the transmission systems used in items of equipment. Advances in electronics and software in particular have allowed the development of integrated transmissions. These operate more efficiently and help optimise power delivery from an engine, boosting torque response and cutting fuel consumption and emissions at the same time. The smart electronics
