1315 Intercomp has expanded its wireless efforts to a key mining scale system, the company said on Tuesday at Conexpo.

Intercomp, which has provided weighing solutions for more than 35 years, now offers its fully integrated RFX wireless weighing technology on its MS450 mining scale systems.

The MS450 provides a durable, high-capacity, on-site mining scale solution to maximise payloads, increase operational efficiency and safety, and prevent premature wear on vehicles and tyres. Platform scales can be brought to sites as above-ground portable scale systems or are available as semi-permanent in-ground systems to monitor loads and prevent undue wear and tear on equipment.

Scales are available in capacities up to 725tonnes and feature environmentally sealed load cells for maximum weather protection. Weight data can be monitored and collected wirelessly through a variety of Intercomp devices, software, and apps using the optional RFX integrated wireless communication, or through cabled alternatives.

MS450 scale systems also include the flexibility of manned/unmanned and static/dynamic modes to provide the functionality needed for any mining operation.

    Erlau has chosen bauma 2013 to mark the 70th year since Erlau TPC says it invented the tyre protection chain. A small drawing registered by Erlau in 1943 marks a pivotal moment in the history of bulk materials handling. At that time mining methods were changing as the lumbering steam shovels, rope-operated excavators and horse-drawn rail tubs, which had themselves superseded the pick and shovel, were being replaced by wheeled, hydraulic loading shovels and tipper-bodied trucks.

    Hitachi Construction Machinery has introduced a hydraulic technology known as TRIAS on its Dash-5 Zaxis excavators from the ZX210LC-5 to the ZX350LC-5. Developed to reduce fuel consumption, the system uses three hydraulic pumps and a control valve, which efficiently divides the flow from the pumps into each actuator as required.

    January 24, 2014
    JCB is expanding its telehandler line-up with the addition of the compact 525-60 at Conexpo. According to the firm, the 525-60 offers full-size telehandler performance in a compact chassis. Maximum lift height is 6m and its load capacity is 2.5 tonnes, while the 525-60 is just 1.8m wide and 1.91m tall. This allows it to be operated in sites with limited space. The 525-60 Hi-Viz replaces the rear-engined 524-50, 527-55 and the 520-50 models, and features a side-mounted engine design. This permits a low boom
