PRESS RELEASE

60 Years: A Story of Passion and Drive A Journey Marching Toward the Century-old Enterprise

iuGong’s 60th Anniversary Celebration was held at LiuGong International Industrial Park in Liuzhou, Guangxi, China. Attendees included domestic and overseas customers, distributors, suppliers, government officials, shareholders, and stakeholders who have worked with LiuGong throughout its 60 years. LiuGong also celebrated the production of its 400,000th wheel loader. The achievement was made through the unremitting efforts and proactive technological innovation of all LiuGong people in the past six decades. This is a milestone worthy of celebration in the history of LiuGong. At the same time, six new products including 990F excavator, B170DL bulldozer, S935 sugarcane harvester, TC800C5 crane, 4180D motor grader and 886H loader make their debut at the ceremony, fully demonstrating the array of LiuGong’s large-scale and intelligent equipment.

expansion of its product lines. So far, LiuGong has 32complete product lines in six categories to meet the customers’ demands of various applications as well as extreme operations. In April 2002, LiuGong successfully produced eight hundred and ninety-nine loaders in one month which was known as “899 Campaign”, a huge leap of production at that time. Taking this opportunity, the company launched its reform towards becoming a modern company. Afterwards, its Board of Directors promoted to build an “open and globalized” LiuGong, boarding the fast lane for the company’s globalization, which was shown in its fast growth of overseas revenues. Backed by its historical legacies, LiuGong has developed the core values of “customer oriented, assuring the future by quality; people foremost, create value through cooperation”, striving to build an international brand that leads China’s machinery industry.

Grow Stronger and Stay True

Holding the Heart of a Craftsman

Established in 1958, LiuGong is not only a pioneer of the production of loaders, but also laid a solid foundation for the technology, talent cultivation and management for the development of CE industry in China. In 1958, Shanghai Huadong Steel Factory allocated some employees and pieces of equipment to Liuzhou, Guangxi to facilitate the economic development in southwest China. In a wilderness on the west bank of Liujiang River, they built a factory from nothing. In 1966, LiuGong rolled out the first wheel loader accredited by China, which opened a new chapter in the company’s development. In 1993, LiuGong began trading on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange and became the first listed company of CE industry and Guangxi. Since 2000, LiuGong has been looking beyond its loader business and working on cross-regional operations and

LiuGong has been building its global presence of 10 overseas subsidiaries, 9 overseas regional parts distribution centers and more than 300 distributors in over 100 countries. All LiuGong products and customers are supported by five R&D centers worldwide. In 2012, by the acquisition of civil construction machinery segment of HSW in Poland, we laid a solid foundation for export of China’s proprietary technology and products to the EU.

SDLG Unveils Concept Electric Compact Excavator at bauma China 2018

PRESS RELEASE

The 6 t capacity prototype emits zero emissions, reduces noise levels, and offers higher efficiency and significantly reduced operation costs.

SDLG showcased the E660F-EX, a concept electric compact excavator, at bauma China 2018. The concept excavator is SDLG’s first foray into electromobility and is not available commercially. The E660F-EX was among the 25 construction machine models that SDLG exhibited during the November 27 to 30 event at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre in Shanghai, China. “The E660F-EX is SDLG’s first machine to utilize electric motors,” said Wang Xiaohui, general manager of SDLG Import and Export Company. “The concept machine demonstrates SDLG’s dedication toward electromobility. We are investing in research and construction equipment that will produce lower emissions, reduced noise levels, and will be more energy efficient without compromising machine performance.” The 6 t capacity E660F-EX is based on the current E660FL compact excavator, which has a bucket capacity of 0.2 m3, maximum excavation force of 40 kN, and swing speed of 10 r/min. To make the machine electric, the combustion engine was replaced by a 30 kWh lithium battery and switched reluctance electric motor. The concept E660F-EX can be recharged by plugging into a power grid or the vehicle-charging facilities that are already available in China. A full recharge takes between three to four hours on a 32 amp grid. With a dedicated grid, the E660F-EX could be recharged within one hour. “On a full charge, the E660F-EX can perform continuous digging for about three hours,” Wang said.

partaking in U.S. mining equipment industry share. Earlier in the month, the firm made it to the headlines for having ended its supposed deal with Uptake, a data analytics startup. Apparently, the deal couldn’t see the light of the day, owing to the fact that Caterpillar’s scope of expansion in mining equipment market was not exactly in conjunction with Uptake’s interest in the alliance. Despite the unceremonious cutoff, the incidence indeed propagated that Caterpillar’s goals with regards to mining component manufacturing and commercialization soared higher than ever. Caterpillar ’ collaboration with China Energy Investment Corp spans over five years, and outlines all the collaborations of the future with regards to mining equipment rentals and sales, product manufacturing support, and tech applications. The deal is also said to strengthen the Sino-US economic & trade relationship, as the mining equipment that would be supplied to China Energy for its upcoming project pipeline would be exported from the United States. With this alliance, Caterpillar is expected to considerably strengthen its position in mining equipment market, while simultaneously China Investment to gain ground in the international mining sector.

Komatsu

Komatsu is reputed to be one of the most proactive contributors in mining equipment industry share, especially in case of tapping technological expertise. Recently, the company made it to the headlines for having implemented an IIoT platform powered by Microsoft Azure and Cloudera Enterprise in order to help global businesses monitor mining performance and analyze machine efficacy – a dire need for mining equipment market firms as on today. With this software, the company also aims to target asset utilization and productivity to deliver industrial minerals and energy solutions for the global economy. Undeniably, the deal has sparked quite an interest among IIoT proponents and major mining equipment industry players, who would now be precisely responsive toward tapping smart solutions for mining equipment production and sales. Komatsu, in the year 2016, had been in the news for its large-scale acquisition of Joy Global, for a valuation of around USD 3.7 billion. The deal was apparently propelled forward on the presumption that the underground mining and underground mining sectors would witness a spike in the years ahead, driving the need for related components, subsequently impelling the overall mining equipment market. In fact, Komatsu’s acquisition, back then,

CONSTRUCTION MIR ROR

|| DECEMBER 2018 ||

had been forecast to prove lucrative specifically for the surface mining equipment industry. The deal also added advanced mining equipment, drills, super-sized loaders, rope shovels, drills, and draglines to Komatsu’s product range. Joy’s takeover thus, proved to be a rather profitable venture for Komatsu, substantially enhancing its stance in global mining equipment industry. Since the last half a decade, the geographies of Africa, Latin America, and parts of Asia have been observing an onslaught of investments in the mining arena that has had a rather appreciable influence on the mining equipment market. Experts predict that the trend is certain to continue over the next decade or so, driven by the robust growth in exploration activities across these economies. This rise again, may be credited to the currently depleting mineral deposits across the developed geographies such as Europe and the United States, the prevalence of huge vessels that facilitate the trade of coal, bauxite, iron ore, and other mineral commodities, and the highly advanced tech developments that have led to easy accessibility of mineral deposits in remote areas. In essence, it would be apt to state that mining equipment industry growth is highly ancillary to the advancements in the mining domain. Not to mention, in recent times, maintenance and after sales services have been gaining precedence as promising avenues, which is one of the key pointers that potential investors would need to bear in mind. Furthermore, the need to access remotely available deposits owing to ore depletion and the subsequent requirement for advanced equipment would drive the demand for automation, thereby augmenting the revenue graph of mining equipment industry. In the forthcoming years, the changing technologies of extraction and newer breakthroughs in the mining ecosystem are poised to bring about renewed growth prospects for mining equipment market players, which in consequence, would have a lucrative impact on the remuneration of mining equipment market.

Atlas Copco

Atlas Copco, a Swedish provider of sustainable productivity solutions, has been a part of the mining equipment industry landscape since decades. The company boasts of a widespread mining product landscape and a huge consumer pool, on the grounds of which it has a stronger hold in mining equipment market over many of its contemporaries. A few years back, in 2012, the firm made it to the headlines for expanding its portfolio of mining equipment with the acquisition ||www.constructionmirror.com||

of the Swedish company GIA Industry. Through his takeover bid, Atlas Copco, back then, added utility vehicles, ventilation systems and electric mine trucks to its underground mining equipment pipeline. Furthermore, the deal strengthened the company’s outlook in mining products, helped the firm penetrate newer markets, serve a wider customer base, and eventually consolidated Atlas Copco’s position in global mining equipment market, empowering its sales network and product offerings in the years to come. The company’s pivotal stance in mining equipment industry is vividly coherent from the fact that recently in November 2017, Anhui Conch Cement, the largest cement manufacturer in mainland China, planned to purchase a hydraulic drilling rig for a cement plant at Shaanxi. Given that Atlas Copco is one of the leading equipment suppliers, the Chinese firm collaborated with the Swedish mining equipment industry behemoth to supply the necessary products by February 2018, at an estimated cost of USD 1.7 million. Besides the cement fraternity, Atlas Copco is renowned to be a leading supplier for companies in numerous other end-use sectors, thus validating its stance in global mining equipment industry. Speaking along similar lines, the firm, merely a month after its purchase deal with Anhui Conch, acquired the assets of Cate Drilling Solutions LLC., its US-based drilling equipment and component distributor and service provider. Through this deal, the company will now hold the exclusive rights to Cate Drilling Solutions – a move that would further position the firm as a prominent shareholder in mining equipment market.

Future Expectations and Conclusion

Indian mining sector is going to have golden days ahead. Bills as well as the mines and minerals (Development and Regulation Bill) have opened up the sector for Indian and foreign private firms for mining. This has raised the positive hopes across the Indian mining industry. However, a clear pitch required to be obtained on iron ore mining area and land acquisition bill.

Q. In this tuff competition age what is our recent point of focus?

We believe the greatest challenge for companies today is not keeping up with their competitors, but with their own customers. Business used to be about getting customers to do what you wanted them to do. But customers don’t accept this anymore. They don’t like to be told what to do. They want relationships based on reciprocity, transparency and authenticity. We began this company with nothing more than a pocket full of dreams and it still takes us by surprise to see how far we have come. We want to drive the market – we don’t want to be driven by it. Our guiding principle is; Change the market before it changes you. We have been changing the products, processes, customer’s expectations along with their mind-sets at an amazingly rapid pace. But there are few focus points which will never change:-

Q. Outlook on the construction equipment industry? Infrastructural Development is the need of hour for our nation. It is the basic to build a reckoning economy. Henceforth since past few years Government of India’s proactive approach towards development has helped in creating several employment opportunities that happen to evolve a wider scope of improvement for Construction Equipment Industry peculiarly in Road, Port, Airports, Housing, Water Bodies, Interlinking of Canal, Sewage Treatment, Water Treatment etc. India’s earthmoving and construction equipment industry has witnessed healthy growth over a past decade. Project owners are insisting on usage of construction equipment’s which enables them to monitor the quality of execution and progress of project to bring down the cost overrun. Also, the Construction Equipment Industry is quite matured now in India but apprehensively, there are several challenges yet to overcome by the CE Industry. It is essential to generate awareness among customers and educate them regarding the pros and cons of an equipment before purchasing it. This is a challenge as customers get reluctant and skeptical after going through mishaps that occur due to their ignorance while dealing elsewhere. Secondly, there is a lack of skilled manpower that can hamper the growth of CE industry as the need for trained operators and mechanics is not increasing proportionately. Thus, to improve such skills we have formed KCPL Gurukul under which we organize several seminars, training sessions, skill development programmes and talk shows.

What motivates your company to participate in this time BUAMACONEXPO India 2018?

KYB Conmat is an Associate Sponsor for BC India 2018 this year and we have great expectations from the show.

LUBRICANTS

Focus: Focus:

Affixing to Sustainability and Equipment Life Cycle

Introduction

Lubricants are typically organic compounds that are used to lessen the friction (the resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another), which are in contact. Typically lubricants contain 90% base oil and less than 10% additives and are inherent in a machine ever since man invented machines. Their role is vital in reducing wear and tear, concurrently extending life of the engine. Lubricants also assist in improving the fuel efficiency and performance of the equipment to which it is applied. They may provide other functions as well, including protection against rusting and corrosion, contaminant transportation, heat dissipation and also helps to avoid deposition of solids between closely fitted parts and the increasing demand for additives in the automotive industry is likely to drive market growth during the forecast period. Along with the passage of time, lubricants tends to degrade under the high temperature and pressure conditions of engines and automotive systems, concurrently the need of changing them time to time arises, so often, depending on the type of lubricant and function. Based on its application, there are four key types of lubricants that can be broadly classified as automotive, industrial lubricants. Engine oil, gear oil, greases and hydraulic, transmission fluids are the products under automotive lubricant segment. Industrial lubricants comprise process oil, general industrial oil, metalworking fluids, industrial engine oil & greases. Automotive segment is the leading consumer of lubricants in India. It is followed closely by industrial, transformer & white oils & process oils segments.

global lubricants market after US, China, Russia & Japan. Over recent years, consumer awareness about usage of lubricants has improved leading to an increased demand for high performance products.

Technical Advancements

Technological advancements in the lubrication industry keep on remodeling the structure of the lubrication landscape dramatically. Earlier, the additive developments drove most major adjustments in the industry. Currently up gradation in key stocks have been a key catalyst. The ever going quest for betterment in terms of quality, performance and longer lasting lubricants has resulted in dramatically improved refining processes and a broader, more diverse array of base stocks than the world has ever seen. Technological developments within the industries that use lubricants have spurred the demand for better base stocks and have greatly influenced the proliferation/decline of base stock categories in the marketplace. The coexistence of petroleum along with synthetic products, while offering greater freedom of choice to lubricant users, has changed the scenario by arising much competition within the industry which resulted in even more product improvements. And the testing and exploration carry on with. Talking more about the ongoing century, base oils primarily were manufactured from crude oil through solvent refining. Base oils initially were manufactured from crude oil through solvent refining. Moreover aromatics are which are responsible for the emission of a pleasing fragrance, they are highly reactive components that tend to promote oxidation and shorten the life of oil. They can also make oil viscosity more subtle to temperature changes, potentially inhibiting fluid presentation in equipments where temperatures are extreme or slight frequently. Wax in oil can crystallize at low temperatures, impeding the oil’s ability to flow and also possibly blocking filters.

Base Stock Developments Influence Additive & Blending Technologies

Successful lubricant formulation requires precise blending of the right base stock(s) and additives. A change in base stock will affect the mechanical behavior of additives used in a lubricant formulation. without adjustments to realign the altered base stock/additive relationship, the resulting finished lubricant might not perform as expected. The enhanced hydro treatment process that creates Group II and III base stocks also reduce their capability to solubilize additives. It also removes natural inhibitors, influencing additive response. Group IV base oils are generally subjected to the same additive response and solubility issues as ||www.constructionmirror.com||

Group II and III base stocks. In hands of expertise the, state-of-the-art formulation techniques can overcome by evolving lubrication obstacles and produce optimal results.Looking ahead, the lubrication industry will undoubtedly continue to pursue base stocks with even more improved properties, performance capabilities and service life. Emission Norms Poor air quality is forcing the Indian govt. to tighten emission limits & improve fuel quality. This bodes well for lubricant quality improvement & increased use of synthetic lubricants. Acceleration in mining & road construction activity can be further drivers going forward. Engine oil grading was established by the Society of Automotive Engineers according to their viscosity characteristics. Currently, most oils are multi–grade – with a wide temperature range – particularly in winters & when the engine remains shut, to summers & full–running & heating–up conditions resp. Viscosity is inversely proportional to temperature. In a multi–grade oil with 5W–40 grading, the 5W bit (W is winter) implies the oil has a certain maximum viscosity/flow at low temperature. The lower it is, the better the oil’s performance under cold conditions. The 40 after W implies the thinning property at higher temperature. Higher the number, lower the thinning. Good quality oil should not lose its properties under different conditions. OEMs are still working to finalize their hardware strategies to meet these limits.

BS IV Emission Standards: The current emission standard

BS IV is the fourth emission standard launched by the Indian government to keep a check on the number of air pollutants given out by the vehicles. This emission norm was first implemented in 13 major cities of India i.e. Delhi/NCR, Kolkata, Bangalore, Sholapur, Mumbai, Agra, Chennai, Lucknow Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Surat, Pune, and Kanpur from April 2010. After going through various transitions, BS IV fuel finally covered the entire country in April 2017. Under this norm, a special fuel was designed which contained only 50 parts per million sulfur as compared to the fuel used under BS III. The emissions of nitrogen oxide, particulate matter, and hydrocarbon from BS IV fuel is low. This standard fights against the pollutants like hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and carbon monoxide (CO) emitted by the vehicles on the Indian roads. It pares the emissions of carbon monoxide by nearly 60 percent and, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxide by 50 percent by diesel vehicles. ||www.constructionmirror.com||

In case of petrol vehicles, there was a reduction of 20 percent in CO levels and of 50 percent in Nox and HC levels.

The true challenges

At present, the emissions of air pollutants from the vehicles in Delhi itself consists of carbon monoxide (59%), hydrocarbons (50%), and nitrogen oxides (18%). The presence of the particulate matter (PM 10 & PM 2.5) in the air is a major contributing factor in air pollution. This is going to be a big challenge for the BS VI fuel as big and good transformation in the air quality has been predicted and expected from its implementation in India. The BS VI fuel will bring down the level of the air pollutants by 80 percent in the diesel vehicles. The new emission standard will also reduce the emission of nitrogen oxide by 25 percent in petrol vehicles and by 68 percent in diesel vehicles. Currently, the vehicles plying on the Indian roads are either equipped with BS III or BS-IV engines. Using BS VI fuels in these vehicles will only deliver the partial benefit of the BS VI fuels. So, there is a dire need of vehicles equipped with engines accommodating to the BS VI fuels in the market. The automobile industries of India can come into play by opting for vehicles complaint with the new BS VI fuel in the market.

BS VI Emission Standards

BS VI norms gained much popularity after the government decided to skip the BS V norm and directly jump to this norm. The Auto Fuel Policy suggested the implementation of this norm by 2024. But after the Supreme Court ordered the government to enforce BS VI standards before the suggested deadline of April 2021, the shift from BS IV to BS VI took place. With this, India became the part of the league which consisted of Japan, European Union, and the United States of America to implement Euro Stage VI emission standards. This new emission standard has low sulfur content as compared to the BS IV fuel. The BS VI fuel contains 10 parts per million while the content of sulfur in BS IV fuel is 50 parts per million. It also helps in reducing the number of harmful hydrocarbons emitted from the burning of fuel. With the use of BS VI fuel in the diesel vehicles, the emission of particulate matter (PM) and nitrogen oxide will witness a fall of 80 percent and 83 percent respectively. BS VI will be applicable to the different category of vehicles having a total weight less than 3,500 kg and which will be manufactured on or after 01st April 2020. || DECEMBER 2018 ||

CONSTRUCTION MIR ROR

Focus: There is an estimation that the public sector undertakings engaged in the oil production may have to make an investment of INR 500 billion to comply with these standards. The vehicle manufacturers also have to invest a good amount to follow the guidelines of this emission standards. It is going to be a tough challenge for them to release BS VI fuel-efficient vehicles before the suggested deadline. Mercedes-Benz India has launched ‘Mercedes S-Class’ equipped with BS VI compliant engines two years before the deadline.

LUBRICANTS

Challenges faced by lubricant Corporations.

The lubricant industry is facing severe challenges duet o volatile change in prices, currency fluctuations, overages &product shortages, changes in oil derived products& petrochemical flows, as well as continuing emphasis on energy efficiency, sustainability, environment poses challenges to the lubricant & the base oil industry. The industry has limitations on the consumers being unaware of the existing brand, its quality & the purpose of its use which limits the growth share per capita. The cost of manufacturing the product is certainly high as it involves complex processes to drive out the finished product. The cost poses a sever challenge as the customer demands a reasonable priced product &the lubricant process being a complex one, adds on the final price, which becomes difficult for the customer to buy the product. The lubricant distribution channel involves several mediators like the DSR’s(Distributors sales representative) which becomes a major challenge because the distributor is the person who becomes the face of the company in terms of sales to the dealers& mechanics, which also gets affected due to the delivery time from distributor to the dealer. Further the challenges are originated by new engine oil specifications, and the new tests attached to them. Altogether, according to estimation, dozen of new engine tests will be introduced in the near future.“The scope of these challenges is unparalled. The industry has never launched number of engine tests at once,” according to the sources. Additive companies and oil marketers know that if they have to run every viscosity grade and base oil combination in each test, it could take a long time to satisfy the market with all the new oils customers need. The relationship between the buyers & the distributors also play

After postponing the floating of tenders for the construction of an elevated flyover on the National Highway here for the fifth time, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has again floated the tenders for the construction of the much-awaited elevated flyover on the highway passing through Phagwara This was stated by Citizens Rights’ Forum Phagwara president Dr JS Virk, who received a communication from the NHAI here today He said bids would be opened on November 28 and the construction of the flyover had to be completed within one year. Earlier, the tenders were called on September 25, October nine, October 30, November 14, and on November 20. Because of the controversy over the construction of flyover due to the tussle between former Punjab BJP president Vijay Sampla and Phagwara MLA Som Prakash and their supporters, the construction that started in 2016 was stopped after a few days by the construction company. The NHAI blamed the Municipal Corporation (MC) that it was in favour of a solid bridge and had asked for more under paths NHAI officials said the NHAI was planning an elevated flyover but the MC authorities had opposed it and the project was scrapped On the other hand, Phagwara MLA Som Parkash and the MC authorities claimed that they had never opposed the elevated bridge The issue had become a bone of contention for the factions, led by MLA Som Prakash and Vijay Sampla and the parties, including Congress, BJP (Sampla group), Shiv Sena, Aam Aadmi Party and the BSP were struggling for an early construction of the flyover

Project Detail :

With the intervention of the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) the National Highways Authority of India has managed to clear hurdles in the way of the much delayed Dwarka Expressway project with NHAI, the Delhi government, forest ministry and DDA agreeing to complete all processes as quickly as possible, said sources adding that (NHAI will need to get forest clearance for about four km out of the total 10 km of the expressway, which falls in Delhi. It will also seek permission from Delhi’s forest department to cut trees for the stretch falling in the national capital for quick approval. NHAI will transplant about 10,000 of the identified trees that will be impacted due to the road construction for which DDA will provide land for carrying out the compensatory a-forestation for felling of trees. The Delhi government wanted NHAI to apply for forest clearance under the Forest Conservation Act as tree-felling amounted to “diversion of forest land”. It had said roadside plantations carried out by DDA should be treated as “deemed forest but NHAI on the other hand maintained that the permission could be granted under state laws rather than the Act. Works for three packages out of total five have been awarded and that NHAI has re-invited bids for the fourth package in Delhi and work on fifth package will be taken up later
