Mulcher and Brush Cutter Excavator Attachments The ME36 and ME50 Mulchers and the RE40 and RE50 Rotary Brush Cutters are equipped with knife-style cutting teeth on a split ring rotor. The spiral, double helix tool pattern and tool shape allow for efficient cutting for mulch up to 5-inch material. A controlled and metered cutting depth allows the operator to maintain high rotor revolutions per minute (rpm) and a productive mulching rate. The teeth may be sharpened and flipped for a fresh cutting edge, extending the tool's life. The mulcher attachments are designed for right-of-way maintenance and fire/fuel reduction, clearing standing or felled trees and brush along fencerows, roadsides, waterways and other hard-to-reach places. The RE40 and RE50 brush cutters are designed for embankment and ditch management, over-fence brush management, rail right-of-way maintenance, and otherwise difficult to reach areas. Three swinging blades mounted to a blade carrier can fell and cut material up to 6 inches in diameter. A heavy-duty hinged debris shield retracts when the head is engaged with trees and brush, exposing the blades, and allowing for aggressive cuts.

JLG
Rotating Telehandlers JLG Industries offers three new rotating telehandler models, the R1370, R1385 and R11100 with capacities from 11,00013,000 lbs. and maximum reach heights of 67-97 ft., with the R11100 being JLG’s highest reaching telehandler to date. With 3-in-1 machine capabilities, a telehandler, mobile elevating work platform (MEWP) and rough terrain crane, these machines offer horizontal and vertical lift-and-place capabilities. These models come with front and rear scissor-style outriggers with automatic leveling jacks, which enable the operator to position the machine and then level the frame up to 6 degrees to compensate for uneven terrain. The R1370 comes with a Perkins 134-hp diesel engine, while the R1385 and R11100 are equipped with 168-hp FPT diesel engines. All models feature a two-speed, stop-to-shift hydrostatic transmission.

Topcon
3D Machine Control for Cat Excavators Topcon's 3D Excavator System, which includes GPS technology, is now more compatible with Caterpillar's 2D excavator systems. Topcon's system works with Caterpillar factory-installed NGH sensors and Cat Assist features. Topcon's system is designed to provide real-time, dynamic, on-screen bucket location and design views, to cut grade faster and more accurately. The operator can create, cut and check designs from the cab. The automation features are also designed to reduce operator fatigue.

AC 2.040-1 All-terrain Crane The AC 2.040-1 compact, two-axle crane has a fully-hydraulic boom with a fully-extended boom length of 115.5 ft. and the ability to telescope under load. The unit is capable of heavy lifts involving loads of up to 70,327 lbs. without requiring additional sheaves. Its IC 1 Plus control system includes automatic counterweight detection, a capacity radar and a work area display. The system determines the lifting capacity for every boom position as a function of the superstructure slewing angle, making use of the maximum available lifting capacity with any outrigger configuration. The Surround View camera system and IC 1 Remote telematics solution come standard.

Oz
Lifting Dyno-Hoist OZ Lifting has launched a third lever hoist range, Dyno-Hoist, a dynamometer-equipped product from 0.75 to 9 tons capacity. The Winona, Minn.-based manufacturer is the first to bring a lever hoist that includes a dynamometer to the North American market. It is available in 0.75, 1.5, 3, 6, and 9 tons capacity, matching the ranges of the company’s industrial and overload protected lever hoist offerings. Dyno-Hoist gives users a real-time reading of the load (in kilograms or pounds) they are applying to the hoist, whether it be a lifting or pulling application. An overload alert is triggered at 126%; the American Society of Mechanical Engineers requires that when a hoist is repaired or recertified, it gets tested at 125% of the rated capacity. The net weight of the units (head only), is 16.5, 27.94, 45.1, 66, and 96.80 lbs. in order of capacity, while the effort to lift the safe working load (SWL) in each instance is 31.4, 49.5, 72, 76.5, and 81 lbs.
