Welcome to Issue #8: Oil and Gas and Loaders.

It is the season of acqui-sit ion a n nou ncement s. Ritchie Bros. has announced the finalization of the acqui-sition of IronPlanet; Federal Signal has announced their acquisition of Truck Bodies & Equipment International Inc. (TBEI); Manitou an-nou nced t he release of their first backhoe, which is a result of the company’s acquisition of Terex’s back-hoe division in India; and John Deere has announced their intent to acquire the Wirtgen Group.

In the John Deere-Wirt-gen Group transaction, the purchase price for the equity is EUR 4.357 billion in an all-cash transaction. The total transaction value is approximately EUR 4.6 bil-lion (USD 5.2 billion based on current exchange rates), including the assumption of net debt and other consider-ation. The Wirtgen Group

had sales of EUR 2.6 billion in the year ending December 31, 2016. Deere expects the transaction to be accretive to earnings per share and currently expects to fund the acquisition from a com-bination of cash and new equipment operations debt financing.

The Wirtgen Group is an internationally operating group of companies in the construction machiner y sector incorporating the traditional product brands: Wirtgen, Vögele, Hamm, Kleemann, Benninghoven, and Ciber.

T he acquisit ion g ives John Deere better access to transportation construction, which is seeing large invest-ments by governments as of late and is less cyclical than agriculture. This acquisition would decrease the percent-age of agriculture as a total of John Deere’s portfolio from 79% to 70%.

In anticipation of Can-

ada’s 150-year celebration, we are featuring even more Canadian content than in previous issues. Check out our centre spread on Can-ada’s North, which features the top 10 infrastructure projects (by federal fund-ing) and an article on the difficulties of building in the North from Kevin Lar-mondin, Hatch Associate and Gahcho Kue diamond mine (Northwest Territories) Site Manager.

I n la nd Kenwor t h re-c e n t l y c e l e b r a t e d t h e grand opening of its new, 100,000-square-foot, full- service dealership in Prince George, B.C.

The grand opening, which was open to the public, featured food and refresh-ments, vendor booths, and the appearance of company officials and local dignitaries during a brief ribbon-cutting ceremony at the new facility.

“Our new facility reflects record-setting growth in the economy of Prince George, considered as the ‘northern capital’ of British Columbia,” said Bill Currie, President and Chief Operating Officer of Inland Kenworth. “The new Prince George location will provide customers with an excellent facility to view Kenworth new and used trucks, receive outstand-ing service support with fast diagnostic response, while also keeping f leets, con-tractors, and government agencies well-stocked with truck parts.”

Currie noted the dealer-ship outgrew its former Quinn Street location, which served the needs of local customers, truck fleets, and operators for nearly 60 years.

The new location is about 11 kilometres southeast of its previous site.

Inland Kenworth – Prince George features 36 truck, equipment, and body shop bays, as well as a large parts inventory to meet custom-er parts and service needs. Specialty equipment and service offerings include a wheel alignment bay, a body shop with a down-draft drive-thru paint booth, diesel particulate filter (DPF) cleaning machine, flywheel resurfacing machine, frame straightening bay, overhead cranes for service of heavy

components, two-hour truck diagnosis through Kenworth PremierCare ExpressLane dedicated express lube bays, and a large driver’s lounge with flat screen TVs, micro-waves and recliners.

The new facility is part of a Kenworth dealer network of more than 380 locations in Canada and t he U.S. Inland Kenworth, which is a member of the Inland Group, operates 15 Ken-worth dealerships (and one TRP store) in Canada, and eight Kenworth dealerships (and one TRP store) in the US.

Inland Kenworth Celebrates Prince George Location Grand Opening

More than 30 years ago, Gaétan Jeannotte of Mont-real was in the process of creating his own business plan. The idea for a star-tup business was sparked by the fact nobody in the area had an excavator or could provide the services an excavator could. After looking around and dem-oing machines, Jeannotte landed on a Takeuchi TB14 compact excavator.

Jea n not te pu rc ha sed the Takeuchi excavator in October 1986, four months before his company Excav-ation G Jeannotte Fils was established. The purchase was not only a wise choice, but it served to be the build-ing block of his company. So much so, that the TB14 is still a part of the contract-or’s lineup three decades later.

To d a y, t he Ta k e uc h i TB14 has worked nearly 12,500 hours during its lifespan. That durability kept Jea nnot te st ick ing with Takeuchi. The TB14 was their lifeline until they made another purchase in 1994 with the addition of the TB070 compact excav-ator. This was followed by a TB125 in 2004 and TB175 in 2005. The three machines have a combined total of

nearly 28,000 hours of oper-ation over the years.

“It is really unique to still utilize a machine that was so instrumental in helping shape our company over three decades ago,” says Mathieu Jeannotte, Vice President of Excavation G Jeannotte. “The TB14 con-tinues to inspire our family business between my broth-er Jonathan and I.”

Excavation G Jeannotte Fils now has nine different Takeuchi machines, with the latest being a TB290. All but one of their machines are Takeuchi excavators with the only outlier being a Ta keuchi TL130 t rack loader. For their equipment

needs, Excavation G Jean-notte works closely with their dealer, Top Lift En-terprises.

“T he du rabi l it y, rel i-ability, performance, and ergonomics of the Takeuchi

machines are outstanding,” says Jeannotte. “Couple that with the service offered by

Top Lift Enterprises, and it continues to make Takeuchi our first choice of compact

machines for our commer-cial and residential needs.”

In just six years, Sennebo-gen material handlers have carved out their place at Evraz North America’s giant Regina Steel Division Yard. They are not only integral to current operations, but as future solutions in po-tential yard configurations that would add more of the machines in different tasks, says Kris Vancha, Site Main-tenance Superintendent.

Ev ra z Nor t h A mer ica currently has several Sen-nebogen 850 M machines working at the giant Regina steel mill, which employs about 1,200 people in total. The first 850 Ms were pur-chased new in late 2010 and were put into active duty in early 2011. Each of those units has about 21,000 hours of service so far. One of the company’s original Senne-bogen units is equipped with a grapple, while the other units have magnets.

“It is all scrap transfer. If it’s an offloading situation, t hese machines w i l l be emptying outgoing railroad cars and putting the scrap into the inventory piles,” says Vancha’s associate, Kevin Hicks, Area Manager of Yard Operations. “And, when it is time to fill the railcars going to the melt shop, it’ll be com-ing from the piles and loaded

by these same machines into our internal fleet of railcars.”

Wit h its four rotat ing crews, Evraz North Amer-ica’s Regina yard operates 24/7. However, different days of the week pose different demands for each of the rubber-tired Sennebogen material handlers, explains Hicks. During the day shift Monday through Friday, when tractor-trailers are constantly moving in and out of the yard, the material handlers work safely in close proximity to one another. When an opportunity pre-

sents itself at other times of the day or night, they can then be quickly moved and spread throughout the yard to maximize production.

NOT YOUR FATHER’S MATERIAL HANDLER

Having spent time in the past as an in-yard operator himself, Hicks understands full well when his Sennebo-gen operators tell him of the comfort, ease of operation and productivity they are enjoying today.

“We used to run rail-track mobile cranes, and we would

have to load one railcar at a time and then put it away and go grab another empty railcar,” he recalls. “With the Sennebogens, now we can set up 10, 15, 20, 25 railcars—as many as we need—and load them all without having to move them. Being able to set a string of empty railcars up at three, four, or five dif-ferent piles of scrap and then be able to access all of those cars in succession is huge for us, not only in terms of time, but it’s way better for overall production.”

The elevated-cab design is a key factor in the material handlers keeping up with the Regina yard’s busy de-mands, as well as operator

safety, says Hicks. “Back in the old days with the cable cranes, when you were of-floading a railcar, you would have to get out of your crane, walk over and climb up on the car to make sure that the car was empty,” he recalls. “Now with the Sennebo-gens, being able to position yourself at the middle of a car, elevate the cab and see what’s left inside the car is huge.”

FLEET MANAGEMENTWith the Regina facility’s

rebuilt Sennebogen 850 M now operating, it is time to begin cycling the original three units through a re-furbishment program, says

Vancha. Having received numerous pallets of parts shipped from Sennebogen, he was just about to take “#1” offline for a month and send it offsite for a major overhaul, including a new engine and hydraulics.

For re g u la r m ac h i ne maintenance, “With four yard mechanics, we do as much as we can in-house,” says Vancha who, like Hicks, has been working at the Re-gina yard for about 20 years. In the future, Vancha an-ticipates reaching out to aut horized Sennebogen dealer Redhead Equipment for major machine support, as well as other sales and service opportunities.

Ir v ing Equipment has taken delivery of a custom-ized National Crane NBT45 to strengthen its product offering and provide un-precedented reach a nd efficiency to its customers in Canada’s Maritime prov-inces.

T he S a i nt Joh n, Ne w Br u ns w ick-based com-pany acquired the 45-ton boom truck in September of 2016. Since that time, Irv-ing has used the crane on a variety of jobs that would have otherwise called for a hydraulic, truck-mounted crane.

Victor Murty, Operations Manager for Irving Equip-ment, said the NBT45 has enabled the company to offer an alternative lifting option to its customers.

“When we took a close look at our fleet, we realized

we had a service gap that we needed to fill,” he said. “A lot of the jobs we do involve high-reach, low-capacity lifts. We would usually use a hydraulic, truck-mounted crane or an all-terrain crane for these jobs, both of which require a separate truck to haul extra counterweight. The NBT45 gives us t he reach we need along with added mobility to get more work done for our customers in less time.”

Equipped with 142-foot of ma i n boom, Ir v i ng ’s custom-built NBT45 is cur-rently the longest-reaching crane on a commercial truck chassis working in Canada’s Maritime provinces, says National Crane. The config-uration, build and delivery of the crane resulted from a collaboration between Irv-ing Equipment; Manitowoc

Cranes; Manchester, Con-necticut-based Shawmut Equipment; and Universal Truck and Trailer, an affili-ate of J.D. Irving based in Dieppe, New Brunswick. All four companies worked together to deliver an innov-ative lifting solution that would work in compliance with Transport Canada.

“This boom truck is not a typical design compared with other models found in this area,” Murty explained. “It’s a tandem steer with three axles in the back as opposed to a single steer with a cluster in the back—the pusher axle is in the front of the rear axle instead of behind, as is usually the case in other provinces or states. We purchased the chassis f rom Un iversa l Truck and Trailer and sent it to Manitowoc for the cus-

tom assembly. It was a lot of time and effort, but well worth it to be able to give our customers such an in-novative, cost-effective lift solution.”

W it h t he add it ion of its newest NBT45, Irving Equipment now owns 14 Na-tional Cranes, all of which are serviced by Shawmut Equipment, a crane deal-er t hat has ser ved New England and the Atlantic provinces of Canada since 1957. The Manchester, Con-necticut-based company is one of Manitowoc’s leading distributors in the North-east and a third-generation, family-ow ned business, earning consistently high marks in independent cus-tomer surveys.

Ir v ing Equipment has been offering heavy lifting, specialized transportation,

pile driv ing and project management services to At-lantic Canada for more than 50 years. From its head-quarters in Saint John, New

Brunswick, the company also services the Northeast-ern US and the Ohio River Valley with a fleet of more than 115 cranes.

You’ve probably noticed the touch screen revolu-tion is upon society in full force. What may have been the vision of a 1950’s sci-ence fiction writer is now commonplace across so ma ny i nter faces today : smart phones, automobile consoles, modern inter-active visual art pieces—a few finger taps can reveal everything from the weather forecast to a short video clip, often on devices that can fit in one’s jacket pocket. It’s incredible.

Now, touch technology ha s reached t he heav y equipment field thanks to Volvo’s Load Assist. De-signed and implemented w it h some of t he most comprehensive features for operator assistance, Load

Assist has been created to be that screen in the cab that keeps loading professionals up-to-speed on the import-ant facets of the vehicle they work with daily.

“The Load Assist is an op-tional feature on the Volvo L110H to L250H large wheel loader models,” says Eric Yeoma ns, Volvo’s Con-struction Equipment GPPE Product Manager. “The fea-tures are identical on all of those models as well.”

R e l e a s e d i n E u r o p e in April 2016 and North America at a Pennsylvania unvei l ing in September 2016, the Load Assist is a real-time, payload data-based equipment analysis technology piece. It’s incor-porated into the tablet-sized Co-Pilot interface that is fit-ted right onto the operator’s dashboard. Once set-up, the operator can work the Co-Pi-lot’s screen functions to get instant information for the loader.

The information rendered

by Load Assist is precise. The loader’s tonnage measure-ments can be shown to an accuracy of ±2% and gives off alerts to the driver if there is overweight in the loading bucket, thus making sure that the loader won’t be overloaded. Progress bars indicate how far along the job is to being completed. Like many automobiles on the road today, the Load As-sist also provides operators with a rear-view camera when backing up.

But what distinguishes the Load Assist is its ability to be programmed by the operator according to the specifics of the job that needs to be com-pleted. It allows for setting necessary limits for bucket weight and also displays the angles at which the buck-

et manoeuvres are, so the operator can observe oper-ations graphically during loading and dumping so both are done properly. This yields increased efficiency for projects that have cer-tain restrictions and require exact information in order to be completed on time and under budget. Moreover, the information logged into the Load Assist can be re-corded onto an information cloud where Volvo’s telem-atics system, CareTrack, can track certain functions of the loader itself, including the vehicle’s gas consump-tion and designated load weights.

“The operator can track progress in real-time as the job is underway,” Yeomans said. “It also provides docu-mentation of work orders for owners and customers.”

And don’t think Load As-sist is going to be limited to loaders. Yeomans suggested that Volvo is taking steps to introduce the program into

other equipment models in the near future, with the Co-Pilot interface becoming a recognizable and regular feature on Volvo’s heav y equipment vehicles down the road.

Touch for Assistance

Ooooooh...The Future!

Volvo’s latest line of wheel loaders feature Co-Pilot, a system that aids the operator by providing critical machine data in real time.

By: Willy Schlacks, President and co-founder of EquipmentShare

Canada is no stranger to automation. We’re seeing manufacturers in Ontario and Quebec usher in auto-mated machinery to improve productivity and boost safety standards. And mech-anical engineers develop fully automatic machinery, like Toronto-based industrial equipment supplier Viryl Technologies.

While it’s clear automation has positively impacted in-dustries like manufacturing and engineering, it’s harder to tell what effect it will have on construction—an indus-try that’s traditionally been tech-averse. But as telem-atics technology continues to drive big data aggregation and artificial intelligence among construction equipment, automation is on the horizon.

Here’s a look at how auto-mation is making its way into the construction industry, and what this new technology will provide for contractors, equipment manufacturers, and operators.

WHERE TELEMATICS STANDS TODAY

Nearly half of all f leet managers have adopted telematics—and for good

reason. Telematics gives c ont r ac tor s a nd heav y equipment owners the lux-ury of managing dozens (or even hundreds) of pieces of equipment all in one place. Not to mention, telematics increases productivity, re-duces costs, and provides the opportunity to take a proactive approach to main-tenance.

Better yet, equipment data collected by telematics has started to lay the foun-dation for automation. By aggregating large amounts of equipment data, over long periods of time, telematics solutions help power arti-ficial intelligence and the predictive analytics required for automation.

Even though telematics has a stronghold in the in-dustry, data consumption and processing still needs to be kicked up a notch in order bring automation to its great-est potential; predictions for large-scale automation are still more than 10 years out.

OPPORTUNITIES FOR GROWTH

Characterized by a lack of environmental and physical obstacles, mining, agricul-ture and highway are a few spaces within construction most suited for automation.

Whether transporting ma-ter ia ls, digg ing rout ine t renches, or exec ut i ng simple tasks like paving, controlled work environ-ments provide the space, repetition and freedom to operate seamlessly.

Automat ion increases safety and boosts project efficiency by taking on both the heavy lifting and menial tasks. Not to mention, auto-mation reduces the risk of human error that may lead to future issues with a project. Take Canadian oil company Suncor Energy’s autonomous hauler trucks, as an example. These 400-ton trucks make around 20 self-guided trips per day—increasing pro-ductivity and efficiency by optimizing routes and ag-gregate loads.

However, when it comes to other areas of the con-

struction industry, don’t expect to see full automation anytime soon. Changing environments along with the element of surprise can pose quite a challenge for AI. Automating repetitive movements may help com-bat a constantly changing environment, but until AI can react to new situations as fast as humans, workers will continue to serve as a guiding presence on the con-struction site.

A BRIGHT FUTUREAccording to a study from

a think tank at the Univer-sity of Toronto, automation could cost Canada up to 7.5 million jobs over the next 10 to 15 years. But it’s not all doom and gloom. Ma-chine-learning and robotics advancements also bring bot h g reater safet y and

security to construction job-sites, which have long been plagued by unnecessary risk. Rather than putting work-ers in harm’s way, machines can take on tasks that are deemed too difficult or dan-gerous.

Additionally, automated machinery will continue to br i ng ef f iciencies to construction long-term. W henever human work-ers head home for the day, self-operated equipment will step in to continue digging, laying pavement, or moving materials around clock. The more productivity, the high-er profits will climb.

Slowly but surely, telem-atics is cracking the door

open for automat ion in the construction industry. Continued aggregation and analysis of machine data will pave the way for even safer and smarter jobsites than ever before.

Willy Schlacks is Presi-dent and co-founder of EquipmentShare, a con-s t r u c t i o n t e c h n o l o g y company d e di c at e d to helping contractors and heavy equipment owners increase the utilization of their assets. Driven by ES Track, the company’s pro-prietary telematics solution, EquipmentShare enables contractors to see critical equipment data such as asset health and utilization.

How Telematics Will Shape the Future of Construction Automation

The John Deere 700K dozer is equipped with telematics. Telematics and automation are gaining popularity on Canada’s jobsites.



Construction poses engin-eering, logistics, and safety challenges, but building in Canada’s north is even more challenging. At a Canadian Institute of Mining (CIM) GTA West lu nch, Kev in Larmondin, Hatch Asso-ciate and Gahcho Kue Site Manager talked about the challenges that his team faced when building the diamond mine.

The construction involved building a crusher circuit designed to crush 10,000 tons per day, a processing plant, a five-bay mine truck shop, a warehouse, and an explosive storage facility.

Hatch also persuaded the mine to let Hatch build a landing strip, which made it a lot easier for the company to transport workers to and from the site.

There is a lot more risk of personal injury. “Regular boots don’t work; the rub-ber just gets too hard. You need cleats. Even with cleats, several people slipped just walking. One broke their hand and another got a con-cussion,” says Larmondin.

You also only have about 60 days to transport all the materials that you need for the year, because materials are being transported by ice road. Most ice roads are over water; the travel route that Hatch used had about 25 portages. Trucks are lim-ited to driving 40 km/h (25 mph). “You can’t travel at the speeds that trucks on Ice Road Truckers seem to travel. And, if you see any wildlife in the vicinity, you have to come to a full stop,” says Larmondin.

“One of our biggest chal-lenges was to get off-site labour,” says Larmondin. “Make sure you send the r ight people; t hey must enjoy working for extended periods of time in a cold cli-mate and being away from their family and community. Once you f ly someone in, house them and feed them, you are looking at a wage cost of $200 per hour.

Weather is even more of a factor. Hatch installed a truss at night after high winds prevented construc-tion work for six days.

F i n a l l y, L a r m o n d i n suggests putting radio fre-quency identity (RFID) tags on everything. “It is a lot cheaper than paying your labour to scour through the snow to find material that got buried.”

Moder n publ ic i n f ra-structure is key to supporting the unique needs of northern communities. Investing in green infrastructure pro-tects the environment and supports local economic opportunities, which goes hand in hand with improving family income, job oppor-tunities, and quality of life for those living and working in the North.

The Honourable Amarjeet Sohi, Minister of Inf ra-structure and Communities, was in Nunavut last month to meet with territorial and community leaders to dis-cuss their infrastructure priorit ies. Minister Sohi joi ned t he Honou rable Joe Savikataaq, Nunavut Minister of Community and

Government Services, to announce more than $230 million in joint funding for n ine projects across 19 communities to upgrade solid waste management, and water and wastewater systems t hroughout t he territory.

This investment will sup-port important projects such as expanding storage cap-acity and enhancing water treatment and distribution i n A r v iat , C hester f ield Inlet, and Sanikiluaq. In Kugaaruk and Kimmirut, funding will support the design and construction of upgraded wastewater infrastructure. And in com-munities like Grise Fiord, Gjoa Haven and Igloolik, existing landfills will be

upgraded to improve waste management and recycling services. A full list of the communities and funded projects is available in the associated backgrounder.

T h e G o v e r n m e n t o f

Canada is providing up to $30,948,435 through the Clean Water and Waste-water Fund (CW WF) and $141,574,759 through the Small Communities Fund (SCF) towards these projects. The Government of Nunavut will provide the remaining

$57,708,587. These projects are in addition to the CWWF projects announced in Sep-tember 2016, as part of the bilateral agreement signing between Canada and Nuna-vut, and the SCF projects

announced in February 2016 and in February 2017.

Once complete, t hese projects will improve the quality and reliability of drinking water, and better protect the environment by bringing wastewater treat-ment systems up to modern

health and regulatory stan-dards, and improving the capacity to manage solid waste and recyclables.

“ T he G ov er n ment of Canada is committed to safeguarding public health and the environment while paving the way for economic growth through job creation. That is why I am proud to partner with the Government of Nunavut on investments that result in more mod-ern and ef f icient water, waste management, and wastewater infrastructure. Together we will create the right conditions for growth, a healthy environment, and high quality of life for all of those living and working in the North,” says Sohi.

“This f unding is sup-

porting healthy communities in Nunavut and we look for-ward to working with the Government of Canada in the delivery of the next phase of federal infrastructure funding. Our primary focus is to work with Canada to ensure that investments are made to benefit Nunavum-miut,” says the Honourable Joe Savikataaq, Nunavut Minister of Communit y and Government Services.

T h e G o v e r n m e n t o f Canada will provide more than $180 billion in infra-structure funding over 12 years for public transit, green infrastructure, social infra-structure, transportation that supports trade, and Canada’s rural and northern communities.

Infrastructure Projects Benefit 19 Communities in Nunavut

Budget 2017 proposes federal funding to build and improve infrastructure in Indigenous communities through an investment of $4 billion.

Bruce Rhude had been working as an underground miner for years in Sud-bury, Ontario. One day, a friend asked him to blast his basement. His friend then referred him to some-one he knew that needed similar work done. A nd that referral led to another referral, which led to an-other referral, which led to another referral…. It didn’t take Bruce long to figure out that he could turn this into something.

So, in 2004, he established Rhude Drilling & Blasting Inc. to rock drilling and blasting. He expanded from basements and foundations to include subdivisions and roadways, as well as rock faces and quarries.

Today, the company is responsible for 90% of all drilling in Sudbury, claims Ben R hude, t he s on of Bruce, who took over the company from his father in 2015. “We aren’t scared to try new and difficult work,” he says. “We got into solar work, well dri l l ing, and close proximity blasting.”

A nd to get t hat work done, the company relies on Breakers/Drills North America Inc., also based out of Sudbury.

Rhude Drilling owns four

Junjin JD800E full cab, with rod changer and upgraded to jet 9 drifters and one Jun-jin JD1000E non-cab, with rod changer and upgraded to jet 9 drifter.

“The drills perform well, are low-cost, and easy to fix,” says Ben. The company is removing rock to make space for an auto park. The project is expected to take six months. “Drills break down more than most other equipment. You can’t drill for si x mont hs w it hout something going wrong, so being able to get the drill up and going again real fast is important to us. Drills supplied by Breakers/Drills have no complicated parts, such as sensors; they are all mechanical, so it is easy for us to fix it in house, which is good for us financially.

The company also points out that their drills, though perform well, are on the smaller size, which saves on fuel. “Also, the cab drill is a bonus for winter drilling; it is better for the operators, and they tend to get more production out of it, espe-cially in the winter,” says Ben.

Breakers/Dril ls Nort h America Inc is an original manufacturer of B/D sta-tionar y pedestal booms,

combined w it h B/D hy-draulic rock breakers, and is a key supplier of drilling equipment since 1990, in-cluding the Soosan/Junjin Hydraulic Crawler Drills and a new line of Down-The-Hole Drills.

Rhude Drilling & Blasting Inc. has been servicing the province of Ontario with rock drilling and blasting. The variety of production dri l ls in its f leet a l lows its workforce to provide a wide range of services to all types of clientele. Since its inception, Rhude Drilling & Blasting Inc. has utilized its well-experienced em-ployees to complete a wide variety of projects.

Dig We Do Ltd. specializes in landscape and snow removal in the Kanata area in Ottawa. They also now offer equipment rentals. Although their company was incorporated 3 years ago, together both partners, Scott Senske and Rob Thomas have over 15 years experience.

“I have operated several machines over the years but Bobcat® machines can push through all materials where other brands stall out. I love the hydraulic package on Bobcat machines,” states Scott.

“In the beginning, we had leased large excavators, skid-steer loaders and several attachments through Bobcat of Ottawa and they were always fair with the rental prices. We may get one job that requires a special attachment and this way I can rent without having to purchase it or at least try it before we buy if the work demands for one.”

“We bought the Toolcat 5600 utility work machine a year ago for snow removal. It’s nice and compact enough to fit through residential areas. The snow blower

attachment is the perfect size for blowing sidewalks. We also use it to push through heavy, wet gravel and it can lift very big rocks without any problems. We also have a soil conditioner attachment for seeding as well. It’s one powerful machine.”

After the home show Dig We Do recently attended, they have had had a high demand for excavating. “We are excited to soon be receiving our newly purchased Bobcat 418 compact excavator and we already have jobs lined up for using this machine. Made

sense to purchase instead of rent as we use it a lot! It can compact up to 28” width so I can even get it inside buildings. Great for loading wheel barrows. 8-10 yards of river rock would not be fun to do by hand shovel. What I also love about this machine is when you sit in the comfy chair your controls are right at your hand rests. No bending over and hurting your back anymore. Also, it has easy access to routine maintenance which means no downtime.”

“Luc Depelteau, General Manager for

Bobcat of Ottawa and staff, have always treated me very well. Their service department is excellent too. If I have any issues with my Toolcat 5600 utility work machine, I drive right up to their bay doors and they open up and take me right away.”

Thanks Scott.

Scott Senske, one of the partners from Dig We Do, is congratulated by Luc Depelteau, General Manager for Bobcat of Ottawa, on the purchase of his new Bobcat 418 compact excavator.

The newest generation of VEI on-board weighing technology for excavators will ensure that each bucket of material is weighed and that resulting truck loads

are legal. For managers overseei ng excavat ion, stockpiling, and loading operations, this is of critic-al importance given that excavators often work in

remote locations far away from truck scales.

LOAD OUT OPERATIONSAvailable in North Amer-

ica from RMT Equipment,

the new VEI Helper XE sys-tem uses inclination sensors positioned in strategic lo-cations on the hydraulic excavator, including the boom, stick, bucket, and

tracks. The system is further maximized by two pressure sensors mounted on the lift cylinder.

A rm, bucket, and ma-chine inclination functions a r e c o n t r o l l e d b y t h e sensors without the need for mechanical moving parts that can be easily damaged during regular machine operation. This eliminates a potential risk for machine downtime.

The specially-designed system is a lso idea l for feeding crushers and load-ing t r uck s while ta k ing the guesswork out of the process and maximizing material, time, and prof-itability.

EASY OPERATION FROM THE EXCAVATOR CAB

Inside the cab, the excav-ator operator monitors the high-definition VEI Helper XE display screen, which provides better visibility even under the brightest of lighting conditions. Re-gardless of excavator make or model, the hardware is easily mounted and pos-itioned in the cab using a flexible bracket.

The display screen has a user-friendly interface, nav igated by a large yet simple four-direct iona l press tool located to the im-mediate right of the backlit keyboard. The keyboard it sel f feat u res fa m i l ia r phone-type buttons for easy data entry by the excavator operator.

With the many settings possible, the system’s soft-ware allows the position of the loading tool to be followed in real time. This facilitates precise weight monitoring, and necessary adjustments can be made on the fly.

QUICKLY TURN DATA INTO REVENUE

For an industry still reliant on tickets, the VEI Helper XE on-board weighing system provides a range of detailed printouts via Vprint. Print-outs available include truck load, truck load history, and production by date, as well as management and configura-tion data. Due to its compact design, the printer can be co-located with the monitor anywhere in the cab.

Easily facilitating the data management process, wireless data transmission is possible via TrackWeight Mobile, a 3G cellular modem that provides Internet access from anywhere.

For further system usage, a standard built-in USB port located in the front of the in-cab display screen provides easy transfer of data using a standard memory stick. This allows users, when returning to their personal computers, to download the data in basic spreadsheet programs such as Excel, and import or ex-port that data as needed. The loading data is saved by date and time, so no overwriting will occur on the USB sticks.

Whether using the wireless or USB data transfer, the pay-load information goes into a single database, from where it can be exported to billing software. Different types of reports can be generated and exported to Excel, including inventory, sales analysis, and machine productivity.

The VEI payload mon-itoring system, ipotweb is available on a three-month free trial basis by simply registering at the website. Additionally, the download-able ipotweb app allows system users to receive daily reports on their smartphones.

Darren Jardine has been working in the forest indus-try for more than 20 years. The Chipman, New Bruns-wick resident had modest beginnings; starting out with little more than a chainsaw and a skidder.

About a year ago, he in-vested in a Landrich track har vester f rom A.L.P.A. Equipment Ltd. in nearby Balmoral. It was a big deci-sion and significant financial commitment for Jardine, but he has absolutely no regrets. He says it’s the best and most comfortable piece of equip-ment he’s ever operated.

“The factory where the equipment is built is only a couple hours away is im-portant to me if I need parts or service,’’ he says. “I’ve had a couple of small issues but other than that, I’m extreme-ly impressed with the overall operation.’’

He currently clear cuts for J.D. Irving Ltd. and admits to being pretty fussy when it comes to the equipment he uses. One of the features he likes best about the Lan-drich is its head which has a six foot longer reach than similar equipment he has used in the past.

‘’But it’s also easy on fuel and does the job so easy,’’ he goes on to say of the Landrich, which is the first purpose-built track har-vester optimized for the cut-to-length method of mechanized logging.

Another great feature is its roomier cab which allows him to bring along passen-gers, including his son Tyson who has learned the tricks of the trade on the machine.

“It’s the Cadillac of har-vesters a nd t he best of everything all in one,’’ he boasts of the Landrich which has made a world-class im-pact on the industry.

A.L.P.A. Equipment Ltd. offers a variety of forestry and construction equip-ment, as well as a full-scale parts and service depart-ment with good after-sales support. Jardine has been doing business with the company for the past six years and even though his

first machine was a com-petitor’s product, he was a good parts customer, and purchased oils, hydraulic components, hoses, and fittings.

“They’ve treated me very well, even with after war-ranty issues and their shop rate is much lower. The mechanics at A.L.P.A. are A-1. It’s the best company I’ve dealt with yet. They even deliver to the door,’’ he says of the company which has its head office in Balmoral and additional branches in Fredericton, Edmundston and Truro, Nova Scotia.

Fredericton Branch Man-ager James Cooper says customers like Jardine are important because they share the same company values and appreciate the efforts of A.L.P.A. In fact, he says they often become am-bassadors for the company in their respective commun-ities.

“We run our business with this philosophy. Hav-ing quality products is also one of our main focuses as it reflects on our company. It is extremely important to provide our customers with a product that can make them successful long-term. Quality product with best-in-class service is the recipe for success.’’

Customers choose the Landrich product over other brands for many reasons,

including fuel economy, ease of serviceability, low main-tenance cost, high reliability, and most importantly, the A.L.P.A. team that stands behind it.

“ D a r r e n k n o w s t h a t A.L.P.A. considers our cus-tomers as par t ners and their success is our success. A.L.P.A. has a high level of repeat business due to the support we offer and the fact that our customers are treated as partners. Provid-ing best-in-class customer service is our number one focus and part of our cul-ture,’’ Cooper goes on to say.

The Landrich was de-signed by using the best proven components avail-able in industry. Its hydraulic system has been perfectly married to the Mercedes engine, making it the most fuel efficient, and purpose built harvester in the world.

In the design process, components were spec’d to ensure full load was not applied to t hem, which increases the life of that

component a nd g ives a lower operating cost. The computer system offered in the Landrich has the most accurate measuring system available, claims the com-

pany, and is able to truly optimize every stem har-vested. This in turn yields higher volume of product, making the customer more money.

The Government of Al-berta restored funding to Strategic Transportation

Infrastructure Program (STIP) as part of its $29.5-bil-lion, four-year Capital Plan. Alberta’s STIP will support 87 municipal road, bridge, and community airport projects in 50 communities across the province in 2017-18.

Budget 2017 includes $100 million in STIP funding over t hree years—w it h more than $37 million approved for projects in 2017-18—for municipal infrastructure, including local road bridges, resource roads, and com-munity airports in rural Alberta.

The 2017-18 investment is expected to support more than 200 jobs across the province.

Approved initiatives in-clude a repaving project at Slave Lake Airport, bridge and culvert replacements in Big Lakes County and in the Municipal District of Lesser Slave River and grading and other improvements on Cat-tle Ranch Road in the East Prairie Metis Settlement.

“Having both a forest-ry air tanker base and air medevac at the Slave Lake Airport, it is easy to see this airport is heavily used by the people of this region and

surrounding area. This infra-structure would not exist without provincial support, and after five years of lobby-ing we are excited to see the province investing again in regional airports,” says Tyler Warman, Mayor of Town of Slave Lake.

“Strong transportation networks are vital to making rural Alberta a great place to live, work and invest. The [Alberta Association of Municipal Districts and Counties] is pleased by the Government of Alberta’s commitment to restoring STIP funding, as it will play a large role in supporting rural municipalities in their continual work to maintain and improve local road bridges, resource roads and community airports. T he A A M DC look s for-ward to working with the Government of Alberta to ensure that STIP funding continues and reflects the st rong pa r t nersh ip be-tween the Government of Alberta, the AAMDC and Alberta’s rural municipal-ities,” says Carolyn Kolebaba, Vice-President, AAMDC and Deputy Reeve of Northern Sunrise County.

Strongco Corporation has announced that it has com-pleted a multi-unit Volvo wheel loader and product support deal with Highline Produce Limited, Canada’s

largest mushroom producer, with growing facilities in Leamington, Kingsville, and Wellington, Ontario as well as Western Canada.

Negotiated by Strongco

Product Support Specialist, Al Glover, Highline’s equip-ment purchase includes eight Volvo L90H and two L110H wheel loaders. In addition, Highline has en-

gaged Strongco’s Ontario Construction Equipment div ision to prov ide f u l l maintenance and repair to the machines for a three-year period.

Delivered in April of this year, the Volvo machines, considered the loader of choice globally in this par-t icular industr y, w ill be utilized in moving the raw compost base, as well as grading around the farm. With the arrival of the new machinery, Highline’s fleet of Volvo equipment will grow to 13 units.

“We’re extremely pleased with a number of unique fea-tures available in the Volvo suite, including the 360-de-gree camera monitor system, which allows multiple oper-ators to move materials on the same jobsite,“ said Joe Cartier, General Manager, Eastern Operations at High-line. “Perhaps the biggest differentiator for Highline is Volvo’s state-of-the-art lifting mechanism, known as torque parallel linkage, which provides high break-out force throughout the entire lifting cycle. This is a benefit to our type of work, as often our operators start their lift well above ground level, as well as at ground level, so they have the best of both worlds, along with parallel lift at all times.”

“Highline has been a val-

ued customer of Strongco for approximately 20 years, and has been at the forefront of many great technological advances in the North Amer-ican mushroom industry. We are proud to be able to build on our longstand-ing partnership, as they continue to grow their busi-

ness,” said Oliver Nachevski, Vice President, Construction Equipment at Strongco. “Our reputation for delivering sales, service and mainten-ance excellence, allows us to continue meeting custom-ers’ increasing demands for best-in-class equipment and product support.”

The Volvo machines, considered the loader of choice globally in the mushroom industry, will be utilized in moving the raw compost base.

Hub Equipment hosted an open house on May 25, at its Toronto location. The event provided a thank you to “valued partners” who contribute to Hub’s success including customers, vend-ors and employees. More than 80 attended.

Hub Equipment has spe-cialized in heavy equipment rentals and sales across Canada and beyond since 1946 w it h locat ions i n Toronto, Ontario, and Ed-monton, Alberta. They carry

a wide variety of makes and models Their fleet includes a range of models of doz-

ers, excavators, off highway trucks, air compressors, and more.

A t t he C a n ad i a n A s-sociat ion of Equipment Distributors (CAED) Ontario Woman in Construction Breakfast Meeting on May 30, 2017, several industry leaders shared how they affected change on their professional communities and what changes they want to see in the industry.

Martha George, the Presi-dent of the Grand Valley Construction Association has 35-years experience in const r uct ion (family masonry business). “I first applied to the Grand Valley Construction Association in 1985. At that time, no woman sat on the board. I was not going to give up. In the year 2000, I was not only on the board, but Presi-dent of the Board for Grand Valley Association.” She notes that in the industry about 10% are woman, but a goal of 15% by next year is achievable with help from corporations.

Jan Nybida, the Vice Presi-dent of Cynergy Mechanical works in mechanical servi-ces (plumbers, mechanics, etc.), which she describes as

a male-dominated industry. “I remember going to sit at my desk, and was told the coffee needed to be refilled. After I told him who I was, he was mortified. The next three weeks, he kept asking me if I needed coffee. We need to do more marketing to schools. I speak at George Brown College to students. I find most people go into the trades or construction as a last resort. People need to learn it’s a good career.”

Marlene Yakabuski, the Vice President of Corporate Affairs for Bot Construc-tion started her career in construction late after a ca-reer in politics. “Corporate leaders need to figure out how to bring more woman into the industry. Is there affordable childcare? Is the place of work accessible? Do hours work around family? Woman can ascend into higher rolls in companies.”

Lauralee Davidson, the Territor y Manager – En-vironmental and HDD for Vermeer Canada has been in the agricultural busi-ness since she was three years old. “My Dad owned

a cash crops farm in Lind-say. Whenever I heard the farm equipment coming, I ran out the door as soon as I was tall enough to unlatch the door. I want to thank my parents for allowing me to play with Tonka trucks, be in the shop, drive a dirt bike and motorcycle. My Dad—because he was heavy set—had me jump up into cabs at auctions to read the hours or underneath and he would say, ‘how does it look? Any wires hanging?’ Because of this I learned a lot.” Davidson took a one-year apprenticeship with Vermeer Canada. “Some-one putting you under their wings makes all the differ-ence. Because of this, I now take both woman and men under my w ings.” W hen Davidson became a Terri-tory Manager for Vermeer Canada, she was the first woman in Ontario to be-come a Territory Manager for Vermeer Canada and the second in North America. “I love my job. It’s a dream. And I am a proud to be an ambassador for Vermeer Equipment.

Hartington Equipment hosted an open house on May 12 at its Perth, Ontario loca-tion. It follows an open house at the company’s Hartington, Ontario location earlier that month, and a demo day at each location in April. The well-attended event offered free food and equipment specials.

Hartington Equipment is a family-owned and -oper-ated company, serving the Kingston and surrounding area since 1958. The Perth location was opened in 1992. The company offers pick-up and delivery services, as well as mobile, on-site repairs.

The following is a letter from Chris Lorenc, President of the Manitoba Heavy Con-struction Association:

“Premier Brian Pallister spoke passionately at the

Manitoba Chamber of Com-merce breakfast meeting... about his objective to secure for Manitoba the reputation of ‘most-improved jurisdic-tion’ in his first term. The

premier went on to say that, by the end of a second term, Canadians would be talking about ‘the Manitoba mir-acle.’

“All Manitobans should

wish him success in these goals for our province’s econ-omy, for we succeed as well.

“Premier Pallister acknow-ledged those goals required tough decisions—balancing the need to protect critical services, with the need to rein in spending -- from a variety of departments and sectors that receive public funding. But, as he put it, they were ‘the right thing to do.’

“Continuing that theme, he said his government would base all its financial and fiscal decisions on evi-dence they were the right

thing to do for Manitoba, its people and its economy.

“And that, he noted, would g uide his government’s infrastructure investments which would be strategic, evidence-based investments made at the right time, and focused on the best econom-ic return.

“From a Manitoba taxpayer and industry perspective, I say ‘hallelujah.’ Long over-due.

“The Manitoba Heav y Construction Association (MHCA) has often sent the message that strategic invest-ment in core infrastructure

is one of the most certain ways the public sector can enable economic growth, spur investment, create jobs and, thereby, grow the rev-enues needed to sustain our quality-of-life programs.

“There is one yardstick, however, missing from the bank of information the public needs to be able to measure the progress of its government’s policies. And that is the size, scale, and scope of Manitoba’s core-infrastructure deficit.

The MHCA sought this information over the past administration’s 17 years in government, but it was never released. Yet it is key to measuring the progress of a key objective of Premier Pallister—making Manitoba Canada’s most-improved jurisdiction.

“Consistent with the Pre-

mier’s commitment to do the right thing, his govern-ment should provide an assessment of ‘Manitoba’s core infrastructure deficit,’ coupled with a ‘sustainabil-ity strategy’ flowing from it.

“Core infrastructure for provincial purposes is de-scribed as its highways, streets, water/waste water, bridges, flood-protection and land-drainage assets. The Premier used this definition heading into the provincial election and has repeated it since.

“The ‘infrastructure in-vest ment def icit ’ is t he

calculation of the invest-ment required to bring to good condit ion ex ist ing infrastructure assets, and to build the new infrastructure necessar y for a growing economy and population.

“Without knowing the dol-lar figure attached to that “deficit,” provincial core infrastructure budgets can-not be said to be addressing recovery, investment and growth-priority or sustain-abil it y object ive(s). Nor can they be ‘measured’ for progress and therefore be demonstrative of ‘most-im-proved jurisdiction.’

“In fact, ‘freezing’ cap-ital-program levels in each of the next four or five years effectively reduces investment levels due to inflationary pres-sures.

The Big Event Mining Show in Timmins, Ontario, May 31 - June 1, is much more than an exhibition; it also includes networking and technical

sessions, such as a course prospecting with optional field trip, the annual Miners’ Barbecue and Gala Dinners, Aboriginal and Investors

forums, an excavator rodeo and jackleg competition, the Walden Golf Invitational, and several demos.

One demonstration in-

volved showing the one and only “Overhauler” hydraulic truck rack for loading a boat or long items to be lifted onto the top of a truck. They also

showcased their popular portable barrel crusher for 45-gallon drums.

A tool demo showcase allowed attendees to try De-

Walt, Proto, and Powers tools and accessories, including the new Flexvolt line with additional Powers and Proto air tool demonstrations.

DISMANTLEDCURRENTLY WRECKING

Cooper Equipment Rent-als Ltd., a leading Canadian equipment rental company, announced it has closed a n ex pa nded C A D $150 million asset-based senior secured credit facility. Wells Fargo Capital Finance Cor-poration Canada serves as administrative agent and lead lender for the facility, and CIBC Asset Based Lend-ing serves as participating lender. The facility will be used to refinance existing indebtedness and support future growth.

Doug Dougherty, Presi-dent of Cooper, commented “This financing represents a significant step forward for Cooper. It allows us to consolidate and simplify our structure, and puts us in a great position to respond to grow th opportunities throughout Canada. We

are pleased to continue the business partnership we have with each of Wells Fargo and CIBC, and we look forward to our lenders’ continued support.”

Darr yl Cooper, CEO of Cooper, added: “We deliv-er a rental solution to our customers that is safe, re-liable and always on time. The financing arrangement that we announced today will allow us to continue providing premium service and the latest equipment to our established custom-ers. It will also support our geographic expansion to key markets across Canada, broadening the service that we can deliver to existing customers and allow ing us to offer our specialized renta l solut ions to new customers through a wider branch network.”

Cooper Equipment Rentals Closes $150 Million Asset-Based Senior Credit Facility

Timmins’ Big Event Mining Expo

Brad Major, Ian Phillips, and Dave Cooke pose for the camera at the Atlas Copco indoors booth. Atlas Copco has exhbited at the show for years, and is committed to supporting miners in Ontario with locations in Sudbury and Timmins, Ontario.

DJB Mining Products & Services Ltd., based out of Timmins, Ontario, has been servicing all of North Eastern Ontario, since the company opened its doors in 2010. The company aligns boring holes up to 24-inch, to portable milling ma-chines, to machining tapered holes up to 72 inches in diameter, and machining swing tables on excavators, as well as providing bucket refurbishments and manufacturing bucket lips and custom buckets.

Staff from ReadyQuip, based out of Timmins, Ontario, stand with some of their customers in front of this Terex Finlay J-1175 tracked mobile crusher. The machine incorporates a Terex Jaques JW42 jaw crusher and a heavy-duty vibrating grizzly feeder for optimum production in a range of applications. Its compact size, quick set up time, ease of transport, and simple maintenance make the machine ideal for quarrying, mining, demolition, and recycling applications.

Breaker Technology’s Mine Runner all-purpose mining vehicle is a modern day solution for a future focused mining operation, aimed at safety, lower emissions, and increased productivity. Not to be confused with a customized road vehicle or generic people carrier, the Mine Runner has Hydraulic Wheel Drive (HWD) motors, providing greater power, and extended maintenance and duty cycles. Standard on the all-purpose mining truck, Mine Runner is a rigorously tested and independently certified ROPS/FOPS operator cabin.

At the show, The Bucket Shop showed this new bucket—a prototype, two-yard bucket designed to be married to an Artisan 153 battery-powered scoop loader. Only two of these buckets are in existence—the above bucket and one that was sold to Kirkland Lake Gold, which is work at a mine near Timmins, Ontario.

The J&S SLX 4000 scissors lift features a heavy-duty frame construction providing a stable platform (1.83 metres by 3.05 metres (8 feet by 10 feet)), an integrated torque converter, four-wheel drive, articulated steering, and front and rear stabilizers. J&S Manufacturing, originally called J&S Schmitz Overhauling and Manufacturing, was founded in 1994 by Joe & Sylvie Schmitz. In 2008, the company was purchased by the Walden Group of Companies. Since then, J&S Schmitz has transitioned into J&S Manufacturing.

“The absence of this infor-mation, provincially, sits in stark contrast to Winnipeg’s budgetary planning. Winni-peg’s infrastructure deficit was publicly released in its 2011 Infrastructure Fund-ing Council (IFC) report: the deficit, expressed in 2009 dollars, was calculated to be $7.4 billion for existing

and projected new needs, half of which are transpor-tation-based.

“In part arising from the IFC Report, Winnipeg’s City Council launched in 2013, the Local and Regional Streets Renewal Program, funded by dedicated, annual 2% realty-tax increases—1% to regional, and 1% to local streets—along with civic cash-to-capital contributions

from general revenues, and contributions from other levels of government.

“That allowed for a plan for taking the dedicated revenue streams (along with other related allocations) over a number of years to an in-vestment level that would be “sustainable”, in other words, at a level where annual program funding would not be in deep deficit.

“That is a ‘sustainability strategy.’

“Such a ‘sustainability strategy’ allows the public to engage in an informed, constructive discussion about priorities and directions, aware of the extent of the challenge and the budget plans that are proposed to meet it.

“Public discussion around provincial core infrastructure investment strategies has to include reaching sustain-able levels of investment, based upon existing condi-tion, projected new demands and underpinned by overall investment strategies that focus investing first in those areas that grow the economy, provide the best return on public investment.

“Manitobans need this cru-cial “infrastructure deficit” yardstick, from their provin-cial government, in order to engage in that debate.

“Releasing a report on Ma n itoba’s c ore i n f ra-structure deficit is “the right thing to do.”

Pe Ben Chooses Sennebogen 825 M forSpecialized Pipe Yard Duty

According to Operations Manager Jimmy Gregory, the pipe yard for a current project in McKeesport, Pennsylvania presented specific challenges that led him to search for a wheeled pipe handling solution. The answer he found was a Sennebogen 825 M material handler.

“We typically use excavators with a vacuum attachment to move pipe to and from our trucks,” Gregory explains. “For this job, the owner of the pipe yard required us to use a wheeled machine, so we went searching for it. We checked the dealers for a couple differ-ent OEMs. The Sennebogen dealer had this machine available on their lot. We tested it out, liked it, so we put it to work.”

Pipe handling differs from most material handling applications, requiring an ex-tra-long reach with the load capacity to safely manoeuvre long, heavy steel pipe. Tommy Haynes is the Project Superintendent on site. He points out that each joint can weigh from 2,722 to 4,082 kg (6,000 to 9,000 pounds) in lengths from 6.1 to 18.3 metres (20 to 60 feet). “The pipe in this yard is stacked on wooden stakes,” he continues, “so that extends the reach that the machine needs to pick a load.”

LESS WEIGHT, MORE CAPABILITYAt the height of the construction season, Pe

Ben has had as many as 22 excavators and 200 trucks operating in the field. However, Greg-ory admits he was surprised by the capability of the 825 metre. “I would have planned to have a 130,000-pound (58,967-kg) excavator to do this job. But the Sennebogen machine is less than half that size. The 825 M weighs in at less than 62,000 pounds (28,100 kg). But, as a purpose-built machine, it’s engin-eered to lift instead of dig. The Sennebogen’s geometry allows a much smaller machine to lift like a heavyweight. The compact size allows easier manoeuvring within the yard and also achieves a significant fuel saving.”

FAST CYCLINGThe purpose-built material handler is also

able to keep up with the cycle times for the Pe Ben trucks that service the jobsite. The fleet runs seven trucks in the cycle to and from the site of the pipeline, with each truck carrying 11 lengths of pipe. Haynes’ target is to complete the loading for each pipe length in one minute, and the elevating cab on the 825 M provides an excellent vantage point for seeing into the stack when picking the load.

MORE POTENTIALFrom this experience, Gregory says that

Pe Ben will consider material handlers more closely for future projects. He acknowledges that a tracked Sennebogen model would also be helpful for off loading his trucks at the construction site. The greater flotation and stability of the tracked undercarriage would be better suited to ground conditions there, but the Sennebogen’s long reach and high load capacity would allow operators to set up conveniently at the end of the truck, where they can pick and place the pipe efficiently and safely.



Barko’s 80XL and 80XLE back of cab knuckleboom loaders offer low installation weight with high payload capacity for a variety of ma-terial handling needs. Built with reliability in mind, the loaders are ideal for a wide array of industrial appli-cations, including logging, tree service and mainten-ance, storm cleanup, scrap pick-up, and construction.

Powered by the carrying

vehicle’s power take-off (PTO), the loaders feature a robust hydraulic system that provides exceptional functionality. A triple gear pump produces up to 235 litres per minute (62 gpm), with one section dedicat-ed to the planetary swing drive that allows simultan-eous operation of the boom and swing system without losing flow. A rotary mani-fold allows for 360-degree

continuous rotation and provides electrical and hy-draulic power to the lower frame. Sectional control type valves come with fold-ing mechanical joysticks.

The 80XL offers a stan-dard 6.7-metre (22-foot) straight boom and delivers a maximum lift capacity of 4,450 kg (9,880 pounds); an 8-metre (26-foot) straight b o om i s opt ion a l . T he 80XLE is equipped with a telescoping boom that ex-tends from 6.7 to 7.6 metres (22 to 25 feet) and provides lift capacity up to 4,700 kg (10,450 pounds).

T h e l o a d e r s ’ w i d e r, all-welded boom construc-tion with fabricated box type design includes sweeping curves to add strength and resist fatigue. Extra-large zinc-plated pins and bolts provide added durability in high-stress areas. Bolt-on cylinder glands simplif y

on-site service, while seal rings help extend product life. The cylinders are made of heavy-duty steel tubing, and heavy chrome cylinder rods are heat treated for en-hanced strength.

A comfortable operator platform includes a locking, fold-down seat with arm-rests. The rotating platform includes beneath-the-seat style valve mounting and a foot swing pedal. Other standard features include t e le s c opic s t a bi l i z e r s , mounting bolts and support plates, load securing posts, and dual ladders with non-slip treading.

Available options include a left-hand platform, oil cooler kit with 12-volt fan, and spacers to accommo-date various frame heights. Optional 55-watt halogen work lamps can also be mounted to the stick boom for improved visibility.

A rdco has announced t he relea se of t he nex t generat ion A r t iculat ing M u l t i - P u r p o s e T r u c k (AMT), featuring a mod-u la r back-end plat for m that offers the f lexibility to customize the vehicle to suit any work environment, from urban construction projects to extreme off-road jobsites.

T he A M T is desig ned to accept a wide array of standard and customizable attachments. Available con-figurations include a bare chassis, flatbed, water tank, fuel tank, dump bed, ser-vice and lube station, utility bed, personnel carrier, pipe trailer, drill, and custom solutions. End-users can easily change attachments, while rental companies can serve a variety of customer applications with a single machine.

Multiple tire choices (trac-tor, construction, terra, or sand) help further configure the machine to various work conditions in construction,

oil and gas, railroad, utility, forestry, and agriculture. The AMT can navigate diffi-cult terrain and work in any environment.

Powered by a 187-kW (250-hp) Cummins QSB6.7 Tier 4 Final diesel engine, the AMT 600 model fea-tures selectable four- or six-wheel-drive and offers a ma x i mu m payload of 20,000 kg (45,000 pounds). The AMT 400 model has a

150-kW (200-hp) Cummins Tier 4 engine, offers two- or four-wheel-drive, and provides a max payload of 12,600 kg (28,000 pounds) for hauling fuel, water, dirt, and more.

Top travel speed for each unit is 37 km/h (23 mph).

Prinoth is proud to an-nounce the Panther T16 is evolving to become the most versatile vehicle in its class, claims the manufacturer. The T16 is now available with new track and con-figuration options to suit varying customer needs. There is now a choice be-t ween meta l embedded solid rubber tracks (MERT) or the traditional D-dent track system.

Panther T16 customers have been requesting the rubber track option in order to allow more versatility when crossing or travelling on roads, as well as being gentler on shop floors when

up-fitting or maintaining the vehicles.

Moreover, the T16 is also now available with a dump box or flatbed options. This gives the Panther T16 the highest payload available on rubber tracks, claims the company, boasting 15,100 kg (33,500 pounds) of bulk load material payload while the gross vehicle weight rating is 33,750 kg (75,000 pounds). The dump box is able to re-ceive up to 11.5 cubic yards of material. The dump box is lined with Hardox steel, making it sturdy to get the job done. With a maximum speed of 13 km/h (8 mph), this Panther model is sure

to increase productivity, regardless of the project.

The T16 undercarriage was completely redesigned for the rubber track option to provide a sturdy under-carriage composed of five large wheels with both a tandem and a tridem sus-pension. Prinoth’s patented tridem allows uniform dis-tribution of the load over the rubber track while offering the same legendar y sus-pension travel typical to all Panther models. The under-carriage is optimized by the automatic, hydraulically controlled track tensioning system allowing to achieve the ideal track tension. This

prolongs the track’s life, and allows for less maintenance and down time.

T h e e n d l e s s r u b b e r track on the Panther T16 has the same unique zig-zag-patterned design which increases off-road mobil-ity, providing outstanding traction and side-hill grip. Furthermore, the vehicle, like all the Panther Series’ models, is equipped with an auto-brake feature, provid-ing increased safety across various working environ-ments.

All Printoh Panthers are powered by Caterpillar en-gines. The reliability that the CAT engine provides, as well as Caterpillar’s exceptional service are only two of the many reasons Prinoth chose them when the platform was engineered.

Additional standard fea-tures include a ROPS/FOPS certified cab designed for operator safety and comfort, a steering wheel and pedal combination for easier and more controlled operation of the vehicle in rough ter-

rain. The ergonomic steering column is telescopic and tiltable. An elevated engine position provides optimal fording depth of up to 1,300 mm (51 inches) allowing operators to travel through swamps, mud or any other types of difficult terrain.

Stability and floatability on the Prinoth Panther T16 are valuable assets when operating in challenging work environments such as mining, construction, oil and gas, and electric utility.

New Options Enhance Application Versatility for the Panther T16

The Prinoth Panther T16 now has rubber track options, as well as dump and flatbed options.

LOADERS

As a highly skilled operator, you know that wheel loaders are designed to efficiently scoop, lift, carry and load material for a var-iety of applications. But are you aware that you can choose between two transmission types to better match the wheel loader to the application?

The first type of transmission is called a conventional, automatic transmission with a torque converter. It is the most commonly used transmission type for wheel loaders. However, there are certain digging, loading and lifting applications where you may need continuous power and increased torque without shifting gears. Many manufacturers now produce a second type of transmission to fit those application needs in the small- to mid-size class called a hydrostatic trans-mission. Hydrostatic drive wheel loaders provide excellent means of power when variable output speed is required. With many models available today, you can tailor a machine to complete various tasks and also fit it with different attachments for other jobs in the future.

Before you use a wheel loader, you should match the performance features to the type of work you will be completing. According to Mike Stark, Doosan Wheel Loader Prod-uct Specialist, you should have a general understanding of a torque converter trans-mission-style and hydrostatic components, and how each transmission type can benefit your productivity. By asking the following seven questions, you can better utilize these powerful machines without sacrificing power and performance.

HOW ARE TORQUE CONVERTER & HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSIONS DIFFERENT?

Torque converter transmissions are a type of fluid coupling in which three or more rotors are used, one of which

may be able to be locked, so that output torque is augmented and output speed matches engine rpm. Manufacturers offer manual or automatic powershift trans-missions that allow the machine to move forward and backward and shift the ma-chine into neutral. According to Stark, this transmission type allows “wheel loaders to accelerate more quickly and provides the most available torque in digging ap-plications.”

A hydrostatic transmission consists of an entire hydraulic system: It contains a pump, motors and all the required controls. Power is generated and transmitted by fluid flowing through the specialized system.

“Instead of a transmission, the ma-chine is equipped with a constant velocity (mechanical) gearbox that consists of two hydraulic motors—a low speed and a high speed motor,” Stark says. “A variable dis-placement pump attaches directly to the engine and can push the hydraulic fluid forward to accelerate or decelerate the machine.”

If more torque is needed, especially in heavy digging applications, both the low- and high-speed motors will receive flow.

This prov ides low-speed, h ig h-torque output from the mo-tors, Stark says. When the demand for higher torque decreases and speed increas-es, he says

a clutch will transfer the flow to the high-speed motor. This provides higher speed output with lower torque for improved machine performance.

According to Stark, hydrostatic trans-missions have several benefits, including:

· Improved fuel efficiency, such as lower consumption, because of improved performance at lower engine rpms.

· Enhanced machine position control to increase productivity, especially when climbing a pile or hill to fill the wheel loader’s bucket.

· Low heat development in the digging range.

This type of transmission allows the operator to easily adjust the wheel load-er’s speed, torque and power as well as provide dynamic breaking capabilities. In addition, hydrostatic wheel loaders have fewer moving parts, which makes servicing the machine easier, according to Stark.

“They also have better fuel efficiency when travelling longer distances,” he says.

ARE THERE MULTIPLE POWER MODES?Both torque converter and hydrostatic

wheel loaders are equipped with selectable power modes that adjust the maximum en-gine rpm based on the operator’s preference and the application. However, unique to the hydrostatic drive system, the engine rpm is not directly correlated to the machine’s travel speed, so the maximum travel speed remains unaffected.

Typically, there are three power modes that can adjust the maximum engine rpm, including:

· Power: Provides superior power and performance for tough conditions and truck-loading tasks.

· Standard: Balances fuel consumption for everyday digging, grading and lift-ing tasks.

· Economy: Reduces fuel consumption for low-demand applications.

“An operator moving sand may want maximum power all the time, so the power

mode would work best for this application,” Stark says. “Similarly, if operators are pushing snow, they may want to select the economy mode. Wit h hydrostat ic wheel loaders, operators can gain the needed torque to push the material, but they also have the ability to reduce their travel speed.”

WHAT TRACTION MANAGE-MENT FEATURES ARE THERE?

A wheel loader needs the right amount of traction when digging, grading, or loading trucks. To easily manoeuvre in tough terrain, most torque converter transmission-style wheel loaders are equipped with limited-slip differen-tials, which allow the wheel

with the most traction to re-ceive the proper torque. The differentials provide better tractive effort, even in soft or wet ground conditions.

Hydrostatic wheel load-ers have a traction control management feature that can help reduce wheel slippage for more-efficient operation in digging, stockpiling, and loading applications.

The three modes may in-clude:

· Max: Provides maximum t r ac t ion forc e w hen working in digging and stockpiling applications.

· Traction control: Dis-p l a y s t h r e e l e v e l s of r e duc e d t r ac t ion forces—90%, 80%, and

70% torque—to match the jobsite.

· S-Mode: Helps when operating on slippery roadway conditions.

“The traction control mode works well in semi-slippery applications, helping wheels maintain better ground con-tact,” Stark says. “S-Mode also provides operators with 50% torque at the wheels, to easi ly ma noeuv re in slippery applications, such as waste transfer stations. Both modes help decrease wear on the tires, increase productivity, and can lead to more fuel savings on the jobsite.”

Some torque converter transmission-style wheel

loaders are equipped with a standard or optional lock-up clutch that physically links the impeller and turbine, re-sulting in little to no slippage and virtually no power loss.

CAN I MATCH SPEED TO THE APPLICATION?

Unlike torque converter transmission-style wheel loaders, hydrostatic drive models allow operators to fine-tune the travel speed, and can therefore obtain full engine rpm without the use of the acceleration pedal.

“This function is particu-larly useful for operators who need optimal lift arm or hydraulic attachment performance when pushing snow,” Stark says. “In appli-cations like these, operators need to control their speed, but also want higher engine rpm to get the job completed efficiently.”

ARE THERE DYNAMIC BRAKING CAPABILITIES?

Hydrostatic wheel load-ers have dynamic braking capabilities.

“Dynamic braking gives operators better control and reduces wear on the brakes,” Stark says.

With the dynamic brak-ing feature, the operator can simply ease off the ac-celeration pedal and the hydraulic pressure within the hydrostatic system will slowly bring the machine

to a stop, without applying the brakes.

A c c o r d i n g t o S t a r k , this feature is especially beneficial in stockpiling ap-plications or when travelling down a grade.

WHAT CAB OFFERINGS ARE THERE?

Manufacturers continue to increase cab space by increasing the cab size by reducing component size, thereby opening up the space without making the cab dimensions any larger. According to Stark, some manufacturers, such as Doo-san, have reduced the size of their adjustable steering columns to provide more legroom, better ease of oper-ation, and more floor space.

Since wheel loaders typ-ically work on busy jobsites, it is important that a wheel loader has helpful features such as a rearview camera, backup alarms, and good visibility outside of the cab. According to Stark, machine lighting is especially import-ant for contractors who work early in the morning and continue late into the night. Other wheel loader features to consider include heat-ed mirrors and emergency steering.

HOW VERSATILE IS THE WHEEL LOADER?

Machine versatility is im-portant when working in

digging, loading, and lifting applications to help main-tain machine productivity. Oftentimes, a wheel loader is used to support an excav-ator or an articulated dump truck, so it is important that the machines are a good working match.

A torque converter trans-mission or hydrostatic wheel loader should be able to use multiple attachments to reduce the amount of e q u i p m e nt ne e d e d on a jobsite. W heel loaders may be equipped with a hydraulic quick coupler to easily change non-hydraulic attachments such as buck-ets—general purpose or light material—and pallet forks. Some owners may choose a tool carrier iteration with a parallel-lift linkage ver-sus a Z-bar configuration. The parallel-lift style allows the attachment to stay level during a lift cycle, which is especially helpful when using pallet forks.

The best way to compare torque converter transmis-sion and hydrostatic wheel loaders is to demo them side by side, because not all wheel loaders perform the same way, Stark says. You should operate the two types of wheel loaders in real-life job applications, so you can better assess which of these machines will provide the most benefits.

The Doosan DlL220. A wheel loader needs the right amount of traction when digging, grading, or loading trucks.



Toromont Cat produces a podcast called In The Iron With Toromont Cat, where they discuss tips, tricks, and best practices. In Episode 12, “W heel Loader Best Practices”, Special Applica-tions Manager Jim Thornton explains how to run a wheel loader efficiently and strike the right balance between working smart and working hard.

ARE YOU SET UP CORRECTLY TO DO THE JOB?

Thornton lists common questions to ask yourself before beginning any job, stressing the importance of understanding your appli-cation and having the right bucket. However, accord-ing to Thornton, the most commonly overlooked but critical question one should ask before attempting any job is whether the air pres-sure is correct in your tires.

Air pressure levels can drastically affect the per-formance and feel of the loader and are not supposed to be the same. He empha-sizes that your front tires should have more air pres-sure than your rear tires, and further recommends that you contact your dealer or supplier to adjust your air pressure as necessary.

INSIDE THE CABThornton also stresses

safety tips such as setting up your seating and arm rest correctly. On average you may spend 10-12 hours in your machine on a given day. Proper seat and arm rest setup may allow you to prevent neck, back and shoulder strain. More to the point, Thornton rec-ommends ensuring your air seat is set up correctly. Incorrect setup can lead to ‘bouncing’ which overtime, along with sitting too high or too low can become in-furiating. He further goes on to discuss the import-ance of set t ing up your mirrors correctly. Typically,

you spend 50% of the time going backwards in a wheel loader, so having proper visibility is a must.

WHAT IS THE RIGHT WAY TO DIG?

Thornton explains the im-pact that ‘setting the front t ires’ can have towards helping you work smarter and not harder. This is done by ‘l i f t ing the boom up slightly,’ which helps your front tires gain traction and further allows you to drive into the face to better fill the bucket. Correctly setting the front tires also allows you move material much more efficiently as opposed to pushing through the pile.

Ot her helpf u l t ips in-clude, a i m i ng to spend approximately 12 seconds or less when in the face working the material.

This target range can help prevent overheating the drive-train and torque converter. It is also rec-ommended to f inish the loading cycle in lower prox-

imity to the ground as not to interfere with any payload scale weigh range.

WHAT ARE PROPER LOADING TECHNIQUES?

Whether you choose to ‘load and carry’ or load a truck, Thornton advises that it is good practice to keep your bucket low or at midpoint for safety reasons. When opting to ‘load and carry’ in reverse, he assures us this practice is perfect-ly acceptable and does not hurt the machine. While it is more a matter of personal preference, this practice is viewed as being more effi-cient as it results in one less turn within the cycle.

When loading a truck, if at all possible, Thornton ex-plains the benefit of having the truck set at a 45-degree angle.

By adjusting the angle of the truck, the loader is able to load its pile more efficiently and the tramming distance for the loader to go back and forth is reduced significantly.

CONSIDER THE MATERIAL BEING HANDLED

Thornton explains that aggregate material when coming off a stacker has a tendency to go through a process of segregation.

This is when bigger prod-uct can be found on the outside, and smaller product is focused more towards the middle.

However, by working the ends of the piles, segregation can be avoided to maintain the quality of the product.

In the Iron with Toromont CatWheel Loader Best Practices

The Cat 972M loading a Cat 740. According to Jim Thornton, Toromot Cat, when loading a truck, set the truck at a 45-degree angle. By adjusting the angle of the truck, the loader is able to load its pile more efficiently and the tramming distance for the loader to go back and forth is reduced significantly.

The all-new flagship of the Volvo wheel loader range—the L350H—features a 10% improvement in fuel efficiency and a host of other productiv-ity improvements as well as a striking new design.

The largest in the Volvo Con-struction Equipment wheel loader range comes with new powertrain, new hydraulics, new operator environment, and the toughest looking de-sign in the industry, claims the company.

Engineered for efficiency, the L350H is fitted with next-generation hydraulics and powered by a Tier 4 Final D16J engine for high torque at low rpm. The ideal part-ner for quarry production, the L350H now comes with a higher capacity 7.3 cubic metres (9.5 cubic yards) rock bucket for maximum performance.

MORE PRODUCTIONThe new load sensing

hydraulic system works in greater harmony with the drivetrain, increasing re-sponse times (and lifting and

lowering speed of the newly designed buckets) resulting in up to 5% faster cycle times. The hydraulic system and drive-train improvements, coupled with the latest Volvo engine technology, make the L350H up to 10% more fuel efficient in comparison to the L350F it replaces.

To boost the machine’s performance and reliabil-ity, this loader has increased clearance between the rear fenders and tires, allowing greater access when fitting tire chains, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the body of the machine.

EFFICIENCY The L350H is equipped with

the latest technology dedicated to reducing fuel consumption and engine emissions. Volvo’s Fully Automatic Power Shift (FAPS) system allows for ma-chine operation in the optimal, fuel efficient gear, according to speed, kick-down, and engine braking, thereby enhancing fuel efficiency. This is comple-mented by an eco-pedal, with a push-back mechanism that

engages when engine rpm is about to exceed the most eco-nomic operating range. Sensing the resistance, the operator can then reduce the pressure and continue within the fu-el-efficient range. However, if full engine speed is needed, the eco-pedal mechanism can be overridden.

A COMFORTABLE RIDENew from the inside out,

the L350H has been built with operator comfort in mind. The Volvo cab boasts excellent visibility, minimal noise and vibration levels, and

Automatic Climate Control (ACC), to ensure an always comfortable climate in the cab. Controls can also be configured to suit operator preferences, adding to the overall comfort of the operator.

The next generation Con-tronic monitoring system and digital display incorporate the latest improvements in intelligent Human Machine Interface (HMI). The system monitors operation and performance in real-time, providing the operator with all necessary machine infor-mation.

SAFETY AND SERVICEThe design of the engine

hood has been improved, al-lowing complete access to the engine compartment. Engine side hood panels and a platform around the cab also enables operators or technicians to move easily around the machine.

Safety is demonstrated in the new L350H with ergonomically spaced steps on entry to the cab and sturdy handrails, for easy entry and exit. A remote door opener, operated via a button located on the rear left cab post, facilitates easy ac-

cess to the cabin. In addition, LED lights, installed on the cab entrance, safely illuminate the area. When operating in the dark, long-life LED work lights and reflective stickers that follow the machine’s contours also help to increase machine visibility.

Operators can be sure of their surroundings with the optional rear-view camera, equipped with a new ad-justable mounting bracket. New side-view mirrors also make it easier for the operator to safely monitor operations from all angles.

Volvo Reveals Latest Technology in the L350H

To boost the performance and reliability on the Volvo L350H, it has increased clearance between the rear fenders and tires, allowing greater access when fitting tire chains, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the body of the machine.


The key innovations of the LiuGong Vertical Lift wheel loader are the ver-tical lift loader arms on an articulating frame and the mechanical self-levelling Z-bar bucket linkage on a vertical lift loader—both are industry firsts.

The vertical lift was de-veloped as an innovative way to increase customer value when purchasing a loader. Vertical lift vastly improves the wheel loader’s primary function: lifting and carrying a load, by pro-viding a heavier tipping load and a higher lift height and reach than conventional wheel loaders of the same power and weight.

Fuel costs are g reat ly lessened since the reduced operat ing weight of t he

vertical l i f t machine al-lows more material to be moved per horsepower than with a conventional radial lift machine. This allows customers to move more tons per hour for a lower in-itial investment, and lower owning and operating costs than would be required with conventional radial arm technology.

“The vertical lift loader will provide performance and value that no radial arm wheel loader can match,” said Edward Wagner, Dir-e c t or of L iuG on g Ne w Technology and Test, in-ventor and lead engineer of the technolog y. “This technology is universally applicable and it is espe-cia l ly advantageous for stockpiling and truck load-ing applications.”

Vertical Lift Loader Ideal for Stockpiling & Truck Loading

Vertical lift on Liugong’s Veritcal Lift wheel loader vastly improves the wheel loader’s primary function: lifting and carrying a load, by providing a heavier tipping load and a higher lift height and reach.

Argo is the go anywhere personnel carrier, which makes it ideal for this show. This eight-wheeled Argo is equipped with tracks and a winch.

CNRE Features Local Solutions & International Innovations “The Equipment to Get the Jobs Done”

was in focus at the third edition of the Canada North Resources Expo, taking place at the CN Centre in Prince George, B.C., May 26-27. The biennual show covers

four acres of indoor and outdoor exhibits with tons of big iron.

At the show, representatives from the Canada North Resources Expo and the Resources Expo Societ y presented a

cheque for $10,000 to the Northwest Community College, a recognized leader in Aboriginal education.

The Canada North Resources Expo is produced in partnership with the

Resources Expo Society, a not-for-prof-it organization whose mandate is to facilitate training and educational oppor-tunities in the central and northern B.C. resources sectors.

Featuring a pneumatic suspension system and good traction, the Quebec-manufactured Kaskoo-X04 comes equipped with a Peugeot 2.0-litre HDi turbo diesel engine and can carry four passengers in standard configuration.

This Liebherr LH150 is equipped with a third cylinder that is mounted mid-boom, which acts like a spring that allows the carrier to be more productive and/or decrease fuel efficiency. At the same productivity, fuel efficiency of 30% to 40% is gained.

Pierce Pacific GP grapple processor allows you to do log handling, shovel logging, loading, processing, and thinning. For log handling, activate the feed wheels and reposition long logs without releasing or rehandling. For shovel logging, use the feed wheels to shovel logs farther each turn so you take fewer turns to get there. For loading, the attachment is equipped with a heel rack, 360-degree rotation feed wheels, and unique two-tine arms with 53-inch opening. For pro-cessing, the attachment offers high output production as a primary landing processor or as a secondary or supplemental processor. For thinning, process your logs leaving the limbs in the brush. The GP allows you to bring fully merchandised logs to the landing, ready to be loaded, fully processed.

The ShearForce RDP 16 rotating demolition pulverizer from distributor-turned-manufacturer ShearForce Equipment is built with Hardox and Weldox steel, for lightweight, strong, and powerful operation. With a streamlined design and powerful rotation capabilities, the RDP 16 is a reliable and effective tool for primary demolition and recycling of reinforced concrete structures, as well as secondary demolition, size reduction, and separation of rebar from concrete.

A family checks out this Tigercat 632E skidder at the Inland Kenworth booth. The 632E can be equipped with the largest grapple offered on any four-wheel skidder on the market. The larger option has a tip-to-tip opening of 3.86 metres (152 inches). Complementing the higher horsepower and larger grapple, the hydraulic system and driveline have been extensively upgraded. Several components and structures have been upsized for improved durability. The new rear axle (specially designed for the 632E) provides 47% more torque capacity and nearly twice the life on all bearings, claims Tigercat. The new design transfers the force to the skidder chassis and can better handle the higher torque load of the new axle and uprated EHS drive.

The new HCL (horizontal cylinder and linkage) clam grapple from Weldo-Beales Mfg. is designed to handle high-volume cut-to-length wood in loading and unloading applications. It combines the performance and versatility of a basket style (bunching) grapple jaw arrangement with the efficiency of a power tilt/controlled head excavator grapple. Due to its wide stance frame that allows the load to easily be pencilled, the attachment features good retention and load balance.

At the show, Denis Cimaf and ShearForce Equipment an-nounced that Shearforce Equipment is now the Denis Cimaf dealer for Western Canada. Above, this Denis Cimaf DAH mulcher attachment for excavators features heat-treated, bolt-on forged knives that deliver good resistance to impact and abrasion, and that can be sharpened right on the unit.

This Eltec FB 317 L at the Woodland Equipment booth is a heavy-duty tracked feller-buncher that is designed and purpose-built to deliver the high productivity consistent with the demands of a 24-hour-a-day, 7-day-a-week final felling application. It is powered by a 240-kW (320-hp) Cummins diesel engine and an enhanced hydraulic system for forestry. Operator comfort and safety are key highlights of this feller buncher as it features the newly designed, operator friendly, Eltec Forestry Cab.

An attendee asks about this Quadco B Series felling head. This attachment is designed for heavy and tall timber, with four independent arms; the attachment’s “Arms Down” feature increases leverage and greater holding power in tall timber. Two cylinders per set of arms (instead of one cylinder with linkage) contributes to improved holding power.

There are only nine of these unique vehicle combinations in all of Canada, and one hauler owns them all. Elite Transport has recieved permits from the Province of British Columbia to use nine of these vehicle combinations. When transporting heavy commodities, such as hog fuel, the short trailer truck box doesn’t get used, but when hauling light commodities, such as saw dust, both the truck box and trailer get filled. The trailers are equipped with a walking floor to move the ma-terial out. A door at the rear of the truck box allows material to exit via the trailer. The trailers were provided by Tyrcrop Trailers located in Sardis, B.C., who exhibted the above truck and trailer at the show.

Big Bear Services, based out of Didsbury, Alberta, featured a Wille 465 with EGV 45 AHX winch. The 465 features a load-sensing hydraulic system with variable displacement pump and proportional control with an electric inching and accelerator pedal to make operating the work attachments easier. The EGV 45 AHX winch features electro hydraulic system for clutch and brake operation, 70 metres (230 feet) of wire rope, 9,900 pounds pulling force, and a place to store your handheld chainsaw and axe. According to Big Bear Ser-vices founder, David Patenaude, the combo of the winch and Willie is a good one for select harvesting, because with the Willie is so diverse from winching and loading logs to road maintenance, landscaping, and snow removal.

This excavator attachment performs digging, dozing, shovel loading, grabbing, and screening. It represents more than 20 years of testing, and recently became commercially avaiable. At the show, it was announced that Craig Mfg. will be manu-facturing the attachment, which the owners of Xhand say will decrease the price of this multipurpose, multifunctional tool.
