Exceptional performance for Komatsu’s static pulveriser is achieved by using Strenx 960 for the main structure

Komatsu Europe is launching a static pulveriser, rotating pulveriser and demolition crusher - the latest additions to the Komatsu’s attachments range.

Short cycle times are achieved by using large hydraulic components for maximised oil flow and a custom-made speed valve. On the mechanical side, the main areas of focus are strength and wear resistance. Exceptional performance is achieved by using Strenx 960 for the main structure, Hardox for protection plates and the use of alu-bronze bushings on the main hinge.

Earlier, Komatsu introduced the sorting and demolition grapples, which have already proven to be valuable assets for the industry. With this latest launch, Komatsu continues to strengthen its offering, and more advanced attachments will be introduced over the coming year.

    Improved surface quality and improved machine design are key trends in the asphalt paving sector, Mike Woof reports There is a big difference in asphalt paving techniques in North America and Europe. In North America, the need to construct long stretches of highway quickly resulted in wide pavers offering high throughput capacity, with compaction equipment then being used to achieve the required density of the various courses. In Europe's highway construction projects, distances tend to be shorter and contr
