The Powered Reaming Head (PRH) upsizing kit for its Guided

Boring Machine (GBM) system was released. This GBM accessory

allows owners to bore multiple pipe diameters with just one

set of 11” OD (279 mm) thrust casings and augers. The base

14” (356 mm) OD PRH unit features 16” (406 mm) and 20” (508

mm) OD increaser kits and corresponding pipe adapter rings to

accommodate up to 20” (508 mm) OD pipe. All PRH components

rest on a customized rack for ease of transport and orderliness

on the job site. The PRH front and rear sections can be launched

separately to accommodate minimal diameter shafts. The PRH

kit performs well with all Akkerman power packs and jacking

frames.

The P150Q Power Pack provides hydraulic power to the GBM

jacking frame and Powered Cutter Head for smooth and efficient

operation. The P150Q houses a 154 HP (115 kw) diesel engine.

Its three load-sensing variable displacement axial piston pumps

independently operate the jacking, rotation and PCH. It also

features a 100 gal (378 L) fuel tank and 50 gal (189 L) hydraulic

oil reservoir.

The Jetting and Lubrication pump underwent a design

reconfiguration for enhanced compactness. It features

independent hydrostatic flow connections, bulkhead

connections for pressure and return lines and an easily

serviceable open/close valve on the tank outlet. Customers may choose the 3,000 rpm, 30 HP (7 kW)

diesel engine or 1,750 rpm, 30 HP (7 kW) electric motor. Each 325 gal (1,230 L) tank is positioned sideby-

side on a pallet-like base. The 2,500 psi (17,237 kPa) high-pressure jetting pump assists the GBM

system’s excavation process by lubricating cutter bits and spoils. An in-line suction filter protects the

pump from contaminants in the water. The 150 maximum psi (1,034 kPa) lubrication pump flows at 4

gpm (15 L/min) and features an agitator which mixes the lubrication quickly and keeps it consistent

throughout production.

For more information on these and other GBM products, please contact our friendly sales staff or an

international representative.

Komatsu America Corp. Introduces the WA1200-6 Wheel Loader

Fisher Capital News Update: Keep updated on recent events, press releases and latest machineries to avoid scam.

FISHER CAPITAL CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT - Construction Machineries, Suppliers Directory and Others. Meets EPA Tier 2 Emissions Regulation With More Horse Power, Reliability, Durability, Lower Fuel Consumption, Increased Productivity, Enhanced Operator Cab and Easier Maintenance, 1892 Gross HP (SAE J1995), 1765 Net HP (SAE J1349) @ 1800 rpm, Engine RPM control system with auto deceleration New variable transmission cut-off system, New dual-mode active working hydraulic system, Additional torque converter cooler, Increased hydraulic cooling capacity, Extended service intervals

Rolling Meadows, IL, September 8, 2010 — Komatsu America Corp. (KAC) today introduced its new WA1200-6 Wheel Loader for use in mining applications. Based on extensive customer input and feedback, the new loader includes environmental, technological and ergonomic enhancements for even greater productivity, while lowering operating costs.

The new WA1200-6 is powered by a highly-efficient Komatsu SAADA16V160E-2 engine that delivers 1892 Gross HP at 1800 RPM. With an operating weight of 477,100 lbs., the new loader offers increased fuel efficiency, while meeting all EPA Tier 2 emissions requirements.

Special features of the WA1200-6 include:

Productivity Performance

The engine net output of the WA1200-6 has been increased by 132 HP to 1765 HP at 1800 RPM. The use of an electronic governor results in low fuel consumption, with quick throttle response to match the machine’s powerful tractive effort and fast hydraulic response.

The new dual-mode active working hydraulic system allows the operator to select between normal and powerful loading, while the optimum oil flow in the working system increases efficiency and reduces cycle times. Increased engine output and the optimized hydraulic system provide outstanding production and performance.

Operator Enhancements

The engine RPM control system with auto deceleration allows the operator to set the engine RPM at the optimum work performance level and control speed smoothly with the accelerator. The variable transmission cut-off system for the left brake pedal is adjustable by a switch at the operator’s seat. When loading, the low setting reduces brake impact to prevent spillage, while the high setting can be used for traveling.

Improved Reliability and Durability

An additional torque converter cooler was added as standard equipment to reduce oil temperature and increase cooling capacity. For hydraulic cooling, a new pump with increased oil capacity was added and the circulation was revised to lower oil temperature. Two additional air cleaners were added and the size of the elements increased to 15 inches for more capacity.

LBX and Sumitomo Sumitomo (S.H.I.) Construction Co., Ltd. Acquires

Fisher Capital News Update: Keep updated on recent events, press releases and latest machineries to avoid scam.

FISHER CAPITAL CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT - Construction Machineries, Suppliers Directory and Others --100% Ownership of LBX Company.

Sumitomo (S.H.I.) Construction Machinery Co., Ltd. (SCM), a leading manufacturer of hydraulic crawler excavators headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, announced today that effective as of April 30, 2010 it has acquired full ownership of LBX Company (LBX) headquartered in Lexington, KY.

LBX was originally formed as part of a global alliance between SCM and Case Corporation, and holds the manufacturing rights to SCM's excavator products in North and Latin America. LBX has been marketing and selling Sumitomo excavators, forestry, material handling and demolition products under the Link-Belt excavator brand name since the company's formation.

"This acquisition underscores SCM's dedication to LBX and the Link-Belt® excavator brand, and will contribute greatly to our success and expansion throughout North, South and Central America," stated Robert Harvell, CEO of LBX Company. "Over the years, our long-term relationship with SCM has been built on a solid foundation of providing superior product quality, innovative designs, and dedicated commitment to our dealer network and customers."

"We believe that this acquisition will allow both LBX and SCM to achieve our common long-term global growth strategies," said Kensuke Shimizu, President of Sumitomo Construction Machinery.

Since its formation, LBX has passed several growth milestones, including the creation of a corporate campus in Lexington, KY that includes a world-wide parts distribution center, product testing grounds, training facilities and testing and service bays. Additionally, the Link-Belt® excavator products have evolved to meet the needs of today's marketplace, including the introduction of new models such as the Link-Belt® 360 X2 Rubber Tire material handling excavator, which was unveiled at the ISRI Convention last week in San Diego, CA.

"We look forward to working very closely with SCM in the development of future products and our dealer network to further expand our position in the marketplace," Harvell said.

The management team of LBX will remain in place.
