Leica Geosystems says that sophisticated PowerDigger 2D guidance system for excavators offers automatic slope control. The system expands on its PowerSnap technology and is said to make excavating easier and more productive. The system uses a standard panel whether fitted to a dozer, excavator or grader, which is also said to save money on training and equipment, as well as reducing down time.

Hanix claims that its new generation D series H55 mini excavators is are more comfortable to operate and offers higher performance. Built in Japan, the zero tailswing H55DR unit is said to be reliable, even in tough operating conditions and features robust construction. Compact in design the H55DR can be used inside confined areas but provides a digging radius of over 6m and a digging depth of over 4m, while it can turn in under 3m. A low centre of gravity ensures stability and the machine has a large cab w

Indeed, because of its smaller, more compact size, such multi-task equipment is essential when repair and maintenance projects are being carried out, particularly in urban areas where space may be limited.
