World launch for new wear parts system from Combi Wear Parts

Combi Wear Parts’ C-REX is a new wear parts system developed for excavators weighing 12-45tonnes and wheeled loaders weighing 12-55tonnes. “Even though the Combi parts system is also aimed for the construction segment, there is a lot of difference between C-REX and Combi parts. When we designed C-REX we kept the best features from Combi parts but we made some big improvements as well. For example we have developed a mechanical lock that makes mounting and dismounting teeth so much easier. The lock is hammer

Combi Wear Parts’ new C-REX system
4929 Combi Wear Parts’ C-REX is a new wear parts system developed for excavators weighing 12-45tonnes and wheeled loaders weighing 12-55tonnes.

“Even though the Combi parts system is also aimed for the construction segment, there is a lot of difference between C-REX and Combi parts. When we designed C-REX we kept the best features from Combi parts but we made some big improvements as well. For example we have developed a mechanical lock that makes mounting and dismounting teeth so much easier. The lock is hammerless and has just one loose part (the locking pin) that can be re-used throughout the life of the system,” says Sacha de Bilderling, sales manager at Combi Wear Parts.

Wechselberger explains: The C stands for construction. REX is a direct link to the dinosaur-era giant Tyrannosaurus Rex (T-Rex) who had “unequalled strength, extreme power and a razor-sharp bite.”

On C-REX, the teeth are longer and have been designed with a larger portion of wear material compared with the Combi parts system that was well known for good performance. The new C-REX adapters are also less sensitive to wear, which means users will get longer operation time from the adapter, thus saving costs for both production and maintenance.

    Will increased ADT load capacity provide a suitable solution to increasing aggregate and earthmoving haulage needs? Mike Woof reports The rule of thumb with off-highway machinery is that for bulk operations, larger equipment can deliver economies of scale, with bigger payloads allowing a better cost/tonne. Heavier machines may be less versatile than more compact units, so a type of equipment that retains its versatility as it is scaled up in size can offer major benefits. For the articulated dumptruc
