SUITED FOR TUNNELS The Schaeff TE 210 is a tunneling excavator designed for tunnels with small to mid-size cross-sections. Due to its kinematics the TE 210 can be used in mining galleries as low as 4.8 meters and up to 8.5 meters maximum operating height. The TE 210 features profilerelated breakout with enormous ripping forces all thanks to its innovative tilt bucket jib.

Power comes from the 165 kW diesel engine.

The TE 210, made by ATLAS Maschinen, is also available with an electric drive. These machines are available in four sizes with operating weights from 18 thru 55 tons. Further innovation means the undercarriage does not interfere with the TE 210’s 360° slewing range. www.kaelblegmbh.com

AUTOMOTIVE STRATEGY LiuGong Machinery Corp., China’s premier global construction equipment manufacturer making a full line of construction equipment, has found a way to maintain stability in a challenging arena. Since the beginning of 2014, LiuGong has carried out ‘small loan’ business, aimed at financing difficulties for the end customers and tailored to debt cycle of 24 months or 36 months. Subsequently, with regard to the machines’ “resale value”, LiuGong Europe introduced another new business. Customers who maintain their machines from LiuGong dealers or factories can trade LiuGong machines at a 50% price valuation after 3 years operation. They can either sell their machines to LiuGong or exchange for a new model. www.liugong.com EC 364

For the first time on an international stage, after being officially presented last autumn in Italy - the forSte 75TJJ lands on the French ground. It is the highest platform ever built by the company Socage and represents one of its greatest achievements: the biggest platform on a 32 tons truck, that means free circulation in almost all European countries, thanks to the low total weight and to its small dimensions - close to these numbers, but not still quite there, just a couple of European competitors. The telescopic forSte 75TJJ with four extensions and double jib, reaches 75 meters height and 40 meters outreach; the basket, with 300kg maximum load, can easily be replaced by a winch two ways of working with a single equipment. www.socage-platforms.com

The new sensor-controlled Dynamic Mast Control (DMC) operator-assist system for Linde Material Handling reach trucks provides highly effective support for the operator, providing a stress-free, and highly efficient working environment. Key to the system is a very precise electric linear actuator housed in the reach truck’s motor compartment.

The unique and innovative “Linde Electric Reach” automatically ensures smooth, simultaneous lift and reach movements for optimum productivity.

The Linde DMC system automatically compensates and minimizes mast oscillations and mast deflections through precise and seamless countermovements of the reach carriage.

It does this rapidly, precisely and efficiently. www.linde-mh.com

COMFORT AND EFFICIENCY The new generations of Bell B25E and B30E are now both powered by the 7.7-litre engine, OM936LA Stage IV, from Mercedes-Benz. The inline-6-cylinder is an EGR engine with minimal re-circulation of cooled exhaust gas into the combustion process. This, in

combination with the urea-based SCR after treatment system (Adblue/DEF), ensures efficient emission control without the need for diesel particulate filters (DPF).

At Intermat 2015, Bell Equipment introduce a development of the adaptive suspensions to give a Comfort Ride suspension option for its smaller B25E and B30E trucks as well. Testing has shown improvement of 29% when measuring ride comfort with accelerometers.

With a new damping concept for the center pole of the reversible vibratory plates, Wacker Neuson has managed to reduce the hand-arm vibrations to work without a time limitation and for more comfort and safety. Since the values are not only below the threshold for hand-arm vibrations of 5 m/s², but rather are also well below the trigger value of 2.5 m/s². The diesel-powered vibratory plates DPU 4545, DPU 5545 and DPU 6555 achieve values of less than 1.5 m/s². www.wackerneuson.com

The revolutionary solution Pit Stop Line by Trelleborg answers one of the industry’s most elusive and critical questions – how to know, with 100% certainty, when a forklift tire is worn out and needs replacing.

Incorporating an orange line which is embedded into the tire, the Pit Stop Line indicator is visible on the tire wall and is designed to reveal itself across the surface of the tire when the rubber has reached the end of its lifetime. With the Pit Stop Line appearing 100 hours or five to 15 working days before the tire needs replacing, operators are able to plan their tire changes in advance. www.trelleborg.com

Expandable Tracmec undercarriage is based on a male−female coupling, where the male element (sliding arm) is fastened to the boxes, and the female element (sliding seat) is embedded in its frame.This Tracmec type of carriage is characterized by two sliding seats every side. The cavity dimensions differentiate the sliding seats located on the right-hand side of the undercarriage from those located on the left side; the sliding arms fastened to the boxes will have different dimensions, to perfectly match their sliding seats. The

movement to widen or narrow the track is got by means of one oil-pressure cylinder each side. These cylinders are fastened both to the box and to the frame and are protected by steel sheet covers that preserve them when they are extended. If we compare an undercarriage with telescopic sliding arms to other types of undercarriages, we'll immediately notice its higher longitudinal compactness, due to the compenetration of the sliding seats. www.sottocarri.it

Natural Compressed Microfiber Iterfibra, developed and produced by the Italian company Iterchimica (Suisio, Bergamo), is a cellulose stabilizing microfiber used for the production of any type of mix, especially for open, semi-open and SMA ones.

The Iterchimica additive acts as a stabilizer, thickner and supporter for the bituminous binder to improve the characteristics and mechanical resistance of the mix in order to avoid a bitumen “dripping” from the aggregates.

Iterfibra must be added directly in the mixing plant, through a dosing system, avoiding a dispersion of dust in the air.

Among the last main applications, we can mention the asphalt mixes of the new motorway A35 BreBeMi (Brescia-

The Enerpac CLP-Series cylinder’s locknut mechanically supported the load while the bearings were replaced. The SyncLift System
