Model&Co, a Spanish manufacturer of foundation engineering equipment, used INTERMAT to launch a fully automatic concrete grout mixer. ith advanced electronics, the new mixer uses a touch-screen control panel for the input of concrete powder ratio and water volumes. It can deliver up to 170litres/min of hydrogenised grout at working pressures of up to 115bar. The mixer drum can also be rotated 95° from its vertical position, to simplify washing out.
A number of key manufacturers are offering major improvements to their product offerings for loading and excavating. Key developments have been seen in engines and transmissions in particular, with vast reductions in emissions as well as improved fuel economy and working efficiency.
Caterpillar’s 966K XE wheeled loader is one of the firm’s most sophisticated new models, with power from a 240kW diesel being delivered through an innovative continuously variable transmission (CVT). This technology is new t
New equipment is providing major benefits for aggregate production, offering superior product quality as well as increased throughput, while also being able to better meet sustainability targets for customers
