Specialised attachments reduce standby equipment need

24th August 2007

  

Font size: - +

Specialised attachments save time and costs on site and also reduce the need to keep rarely used machinery in readiness, reports press officer for Messe München Henrike Burmeister.

He adds that matching quick-coupling systems makes fast work of the job of switching over attachments on the hydraulic excavators, whatever the attachment, screener crusher, recycler, milling attachment, or compactor attachment. Fitted with attachments like a drill mount, paver laying clamp, concrete pulveriser or hydraulic hammer, an excavator can become a valuable universal tool. When equipped with caterpillar tracks, it becomes an all-terrain all-rounder.

The new generation of compactor attachments is designed for fully hydraulic quick-coupling systems and can be attached extremely quickly. The driver of the excavator does not even have to leave the air-conditioned cab, and can carry out compactor or trenching work even in places that normal equipment cannot reach.

The high-performance milling attachments are not only essential in tunnelling work or in breaking up concrete. They are also being used more and more in road building and trenching operations.

The manufacturers of excavating machines favour highly flexible solutions. They also supply the hydraulic motors specially adapted for the different carriers and variable cutting widths. Exchangeable cutting head configurations give flexibility for a wide range of applications.

Modern milling machines have low vibration and generate less noise. The high-torque hydraulic motors, which supply the necessary power and special cutting heads, ensure steady progress. The cutting technique benefits from the experience of specialist suppliers with self-propelled pavement breakers and surface miners.
