Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wis., home of the Green BayPackers, and where the $140 million expansion project iscurrently under way. The primary function of the day wasintroducing the new Trailblazer welder generators, whichwere tested and used extensively at the Lambeau expansionsite. Miller staff were on hand showcasing how differentwelding technologies are used in the construction industry,specifically structural steel construction. Miller and Hobart Brothers have been named the “Official
Welding Equipment Provider of the Lambeau FieldExpansion” and have partnered with the Neenah, Wis.-basedMiron Construction to provide the construction team andironworkers with the latest in welding and heating technolo-gies, consumables, weld fume extraction equipment andwelding safety gear for the new Lambeau Field expansionproject.The expansion will be completed in 2013 and involves
substantial new construction to both end zones, including6,600 new seats in the south end zone and new high-defini-tion video boards in both end zones. Both video boards anda new viewing terrace in the north end zone will be opera-tional for the 2012 season.“People in our community, and all throughout the state of
Wisconsin, take great pride in their work and in Green BayPackers football,” said Mike Weller, president, Miller.“Working with other local companies such as MironConstruction to further build and shape one of Wisconsin’sgreatest landmarks is something we do with honor. We’reproud to be working with the Packers, Miron Construction,the ironworkers, and all of the partners involved in theLambeau Field expansion. As fans, we’re undeniably excit-ed to see the new features added to the best stadium in theNational Football League.” Miller and Hobart Brothers have worked extensively with

Innovation Demonstrated at Caterpillar Press EventCaterpillar introduced several new tech-
nologies to national and international mediaon Oct. 15 to 17 at its facilities in Peoria, Ill.These technologies included a new morefuel-efficient wheel loader, a hybrid excava-tor and Tier IV Final.The event included a tour of the new
Caterpillar Visitor Center. Caterpillar invest-ed more than $52 million into the 50,000 sq.ft. facility and the new Peoria RiverfrontMuseum projects, which achieved LEEDGold status.The new visitor’s center allows for self-
guided journeys of Caterpillar’s products,history, achievements and opportunitiesthrough interactive displays and exhibits.Visitors have the power to unleash theirinner engineer and design their very own Catmachine, or hop onto a simulator and seefirst-hand what it’s like to operate aCaterpillar excavator, dozer or loader. A her-itage gallery displays a Caterpillar D8 tractorand informs of the company’s milestones,while the Caterpillar Jobsite Theater pro-motes job opportunities at the company. The new center also features the 797F
Mining Truck Theatre, which is a 62-seattheater that was converted from a working24 ft.-tall (7.3 m), 400-ton (362.9 t) Cat 797Fmining truck. The 797F is approximately thesize of a two-and-a-half-story house, cover-ing more than 4,500 sq. ft. (418 sq m).Caterpillar had to create new wheels for thetruck-converted theater, since the tires on the797F weighed too much (11,680 lbs [5,298kg]).The Next Generation Is Here, the title
Caterpillar gave to the event, refers to theidea that Caterpillar is bringing the future tothe present.
Cat 966 K XEThe Cat 966K XE wheel loader; is pow-
ered by a Cat C9.3 Acert diesel engine,delivering a peak net rating of (290 hp) 220kW. It incorporates a high-pressure commonrail injection system for a clean, efficientburn. The Cat clean emissions module,which incorporates a diesel oxidation cata-lyst, a diesel particulate filter and the Catregeneration system, functions automatical-ly without interrupting the machine’s work-ing cycle.The engine can be controlled to operate
more efficiently over a wide range of condi-tions. During deceleration, machine momen-tum can be recovered as free energy topower implements or the cooling fan, whilesignificantly lower working engine speedsresult in reduced soot build-up for longerregeneration intervals, cutting fuel use fur-ther.The 966K XE is equipped with an
advanced powertrain system, which deliversup to a 25 percent fuel efficiency, according
to the company. The 966K XE has beenengineered to deliver efficiency by utilizingan integrated Cat continuously variabletransmission system. A hydraulic pump andmotor (variator unit), allows for a smoothand continuous gear ratio change betweenengine speed and machine speed. The varia-tor provides this ratio flexibility while reduc-ing the heat load generated by the drive trainwhen the machine is digging, pushing andclimbing under heavy load. The continuous-ly variable gear ratio of the variator alsoenables the engine to run at a more efficientoperating range independent of machineground speed.Power is transmitted through the variator
unit (versatile gear ratio) as well as a parallelmechanical gear path (highest efficiency).Power through the variator and mechanicalpaths are combined through a series of plan-etary gear sets in order to maximize thetransmission efficiency over a wide range ofoperating conditions. Media demoed this machine in
Caterpillar’s two-acre indoor provingground.
Cat 336E H The Cat 336E H uses a new hydraulic
hybrid technology developed by Caterpillar. “A hybrid is independent of any particular
technology; it doesn’t have to be electric,”said Ken Gray, global product manager oflarge hydraulic excavators of Caterpillar’sexcavation division. “Caterpillar has developed, built, and test-
ed electric hybrid excavators, but, until now,
we had not found a hybrid approach thatwould actually lower our customers’ owningand operating costs. Large excavators oper-ate in high-production applications in whichfuel is a very significant operating cost forour customers. So, the 336E H, the hybridversion of our workhorse 336E, is ideal for
The Cat 336E H uses a method of storingenergy for later use. The company chosea hydraulic hybrid over an electricalone since the technology decreasedoverall operating costs.
One member of the media tries the virtual 336E H in “The Cave.”

Belle Isle Takes ‘Race-Track Approach’ to Paving Roadbeen used, so when water got in the jointsand went through Michigan’s freeze-thawcycles, the concrete cracked at different ele-vations. Because the cracks were longitudi-nal, cars were racing on them for extendedperiods, heating up the sealer and making itpliable. When the sealer became flexible, itpulled on the concrete, tearing it out all theway down to the next layer where it wascracked.
Repairing Racing DamageRepaving the roadways on Belle Isle was
not on the city’s agenda, but repairs werenecessitated because of the damage done bythe race cars. Belle Isle is a 982-acre islandpark in the Detroit River between the UnitedStates mainland and Canada, connected tothe rest of Detroit by the MacArthur Bridge.Although the island generates a lot of traf-
fic during the summer – as many as 6 millionvehicles – a city park was not a priority foran economically troubled city. But becauselegendary team owner Roger Penske wasresponsible for bringing the series back tothe Motor City, repairs were going to bedone right. The $1.2-1.3 million budget evenincludes contingency money. “We had a base number going in, but we
expected surprises so we had ‘surprisemoney’ built in,” Baise said. “Roger wantedit to look good, so we extended the concretein some areas just for aesthetics.”They took a “race track approach” to
paving, Baise said. “We have to. The specsare higher, more refined, and the tolerancesare closer.” To achieve the desired toler-ances, they brought in Wolverine Engineersand Surveyors, out of Mason, OH. It mayseem like a long way to go for an engineer,said Baise, but having used them atMichigan International Speedway in the1980s through the 1990s, he knew they hadexpertise with race tracks.Their input may be even more critical
because, in addition to paving work, the cir-cuit for the 2013 Chevrolet Detroit Belle IsleGrand Prix is being modified to enhancecompetition. The course will be extendedone-quarter mi. to 2.346 mi., the track lengthutilized from 1997-2001, by adding a half-mile straightaway through the tree-lined cen-ter of the island. “We’re taking one turn out and making a
longer straight for more passing opportuni-ties, due to complaints about the lack ofpassing,” Baise said.Drivers on hand for a press conference
during construction were pleased with thechanges. “It will be a more suitable racetrackfor us, with more passing opportunities,”said Sebastien Bourdais, an IndyCar regular. “It’s going to be a lot faster and a lot
smoother,” said Oriol Servia, another
IndyCar veteran. “The Chevrolet Detroit Belle Isle Grand
Prix team is enhancing Belle Isle to make ita more challenging, world-class road coursefor all the great series competing on theisland,” said General Motors North AmericaPresident Mark Reuss.“It will definitely give us another place to
pass,” said series veteran Tony Kanaan.“That’s a good thing on this track, and itshould make things more exciting for thefans.”Despite the emphasis on preparing the
surface for racing, this roadway serves thepublic 51 weeks a year. “We always have to
remember that we aren’t only building a rac-ing surface; we’re building something thathas to survive as a public road during aMichigan winter,” Baise said.“That’s the reason this was such an expen-
sive project,” said Bud Denker, chairman ofthe Board of Detroit Belle Isle. “We’ve doneengineering studies far beyond anything thathas been done for this track or this islandbefore.”
Under the SurfaceLocal contractors M&B Contracting,
from Metamora, Ill., and Pollard ConcreteServices, both of whom have done work on
the island before, partnered on this project.The first step was to have a small demoli-
tion crew of three operators and 3-4 trucksremove deteriorated concrete areas of theracing surface. Broken concrete was chippedout in preparation for hot rubber sealer to fillthe void.The core samples tell them if the cracks
are isolated or deep. Where there’s only asuperficial top layer problem, crews “bustout” the damaged sections and apply a skimcoat. If they’re deep, they then have todecide how to patch: remove large blocks ofconcrete or apply crack sealer. “We’re doing
The project was complicated in some areas because crews had to warp the road pitch at the crown to meet the turns, but stillensure that drainage goes to the catch basins, not into an off-camber collection area.

Rake Attachments Simplify Landscaping Challenges
By Mike McSorleySPECIAL TO CEG
Deciding how to tackle the landscaping jobs ahead of you,no matter what time of year, can be tough. Several types ofrake attachments are available and, depending on your jobrequirements, each offers specific benefits. Finding the rightrake attachment for your needs can increase your productiv-
ity, allowing you to move on to your next job quicker — ulti-mately increasing your profit.
Site CleanupWhen starting a landscape project, you first need to create
manageable soil if it isn’t already present. Grader rakeattachments feature strong, evenly spaced tines designed toseparate debris for site cleanup and scarify and level com-
pacted soils. Grader rakes are best for applications that require the
clearing of coarse materials such as sticks, bricks, rocks androots on a job site. It is not recommended for preparing soilfor grass seeding because its tines create long striations thatallow seed to fall too far into the ground, creating stripes ina lawn, a landscaping faux pas.
Grader rakes can typically be adjusted to better suit spe-cific tasks. For instance, using the attachment for rough lev-eling or scarification may require a different rake angle orattachment to the wheel arm than if you are using it to pushlarge quantities of loose material. Read your operator’s man-ual for the proper positioning for each task.
Soil PreparationOnce you’ve cleared away excess debris from your job
site and have it leveled to the appropriate grade, you canbegin preparing your soil for seeding. Auto rakes utilize abucket with either a rake chain or a bar with teeth on it toremove smaller rocks and debris from loose soil and sift thesurface layer of the soil to effectively groom and finish it forseed or sod. Unlike the grader rake, an auto rake can collect,transport and dump debris quickly and easily.
Before using an auto rake attachment, be sure that the areais free of all boulders larger than roughly 6 in. in diameter,logs and large tree branches, wire, lumber and any other itemthat is too large for the bucket or could get wrapped aroundthe rake chain. It also is important to make sure that the soilis relatively loose and that any compacted areas have beentilled with another piece of equipment to a depth of 2 in. ordeeper. Attempting to pick up large debris with an auto rakeattachment or using it to till compacted soil is not recom-mended and could severely damage the attachment.
The Triple Threat A preparator rake attachment can be your best friend in
soil preparation. This one attachment combines the cleanup,rock removal and soil preparation capabilities of the graderrake and auto rake into one easy-to-maneuver rake attach-ment. Its rotating bi-directional drum carries rocks and debrisinto the perforated bucket, which efficiently sifts dirt to till
The FFC grader rake’s tines scarify and level hard-packed soil when grading.The Harley power seeder, combined with the Harley power box rake, is ideal forseeding grasses and lawn mixtures over large areas with precise control.

Proper Attachments Up Productivity,Profitability for Landscaping Workand fluff the ground as it grooms the soil. Use a preparator rake for the following tasks without
switching between attachments:• Rock Collection — Collect large rocks and debris rest-
ing on the soil surface.• Foliage Removal — Uproot and collect foliage that is
growing or has been growing on the soil surface. • Soil Tillage — Till the soil to create a looser soil condi-
tion. • Roughing — Rake rocks, debris and foliage, scarify and
fill depressions in tilled or untilled soil.Each time your soil conditions or the task you are per-
forming changes, you may need to reposition your prepara-tor rake’s skid shoes to achieve the best results. For foliagecollection and work on very loose soil, rotor teeth should bepositioned just above the skid shoes. When using the attach-ment to uproot foliage or till hard soil, rotor teeth should bepositioned about 2 in. below the skid shoes. Consult youroperator’s manual for exact placement of skid shoes.
Most Versatile Rake Attachment AroundIf you’re in charge of a landscaping project from start to
finish, a power rake attachment can help you increase pro-ductivity and profitability. Power rakes combine four attach-ments into one, allowing you to grade, level, rake, removedebris and prepare bare ground for seed or sod. Power rakesalso can be used to dethatch and remove old lawns andweeds for lawn renovations. Power rake attachments are equipped with rollers that
have a specially shaped carbide tooth design and pattern thatreleases the optimal amount of moisture from the soil, creat-ing the perfect seedbed. Its rugged barrier adjusts so the oper-ator can choose the amount of material left in the seedbeddepending on the soil moisture conditions — allowing forfaster drying in wet and muddy conditions. The barrier’sflexibility makes it possible for material such as roots andlarge tree limbs to pass through the attachment without com-promising or stressing the attachment. The combination ofthis barrier and the attachment’s end plates lets you control,deflect and direct materials similar to how a plow movessnow. Dual, independently self-adjusting gauge wheels con-tour to the ground and provide added flexibility for an evencut on drainage grades and small slopes. Power rakes are versatile enough that they can accomplish
the following tasks and more, all without ever switchingbetween attachments:• Condition wet, weedy soil• Mill material for dense backfill• Smooth out infields at ballparks• Renovate existing turf• Remove rocks, tree limbs, weeds and other debris• Prepare bare ground for sod or seed• Make drainage grades• Maintain dirt and gravel roads • Dethatch tired lawnsFor added convenience, many power rakes have the abil-
ity to work with a power seeder to sow seed in the ground asit is being prepared. For example, Harley offers its powerseeder and power box rake attachments as complementarylandscaping tools for tractors. The Harley power seeder
attaches behind the power box rake to accurately distributeseed onto the prepared soil.Choosing the right rake attachment can be the difference
between a landscaping nightmare and a dream come true.Whether you’re solely responsible for the clearing of a siteor have the task of seeing a landscaping project through to itscompletion, there is a rake attachment that can increase yourproductivity. Evaluate your job requirements and soil condi-tions to determine which is best for your needs.

Price Slide Rail System Assists Price-Gregory InternationalBy Thomas A. MarciniakSPECIAL TO CEG
When you were younger, playing hideand seek was fun — when you are lookingfor a 36 in. (91.4 cm) pipe with a 42 in. (76.2cm) casting and a 30 in. (76.2 cm) pipe witha 36 in. (91.4 cm) casting that is causing ashort on active fuel lines at a depth of 20 ft.(6.1 m), it really isn’t that fun of a game.That is what Price-Gregory Internationalwas faced with on a site in Lisle, Ill.To meet this challenge, Price-Gregory
International met with Scott Gross and ToddLarsen of Lee Jensen Sales Company Inc.,Pro-Tec Equipment’s exclusive dealer in thegreater Chicago area, and two of Pro-TecEquipment’s Slide Rail staff, Josh Brownand Joshua Thorne. “Before we arrived at the site, my previ-
ous conversations with Price-GregoryInternational had us thinking that this jobwas going to be a multiple bore pit job or atight sheeting job,” said Gross. “When I got to the job-site, right away the
overhead power lines stuck out as a mainissue we had to take note of.” said JoshBrown, Pro-Tec Equipment Slide Rail siteconsultant. “It was decided right away thatfor Price-Gregory International to do this jobproperly, they couldn’t do it with tight sheet-ing, there just wasn’t enough vertical clear-ance to do so.”“Once the decision was to go with the
slide rail system, Joshua Thorne suggestedusing the Utility Panel Guide System. Thatsystem truly made the job a whole lot easierand faster” Gross said.With everything, there is a learning curve.
This applies to the Slide Rail System as well.Even though the system looks similar to atrench shield system, the installation andremoval are done differently, and requiremore precision.
The Pro-Tec Equipment Utility PanelGuide System is part of the Slide RailShoring System, which is a modular, dig andpush shoring system. The system is installedfrom the top down and removed from thebottom up, minimizing the size of excava-tions, soil disturbances, and restoration timeand cost. The installation is done with lowvibration, providing soil support for excava-tions, adjacent structures and existing utili-ties. The Utility Panel Guide System allowsthose existing utilities to enter and exit theexcavation site, and also provide a means forboring operations to take place in a safe andshored excavation.Using a Cat 345 and a Kobelco 350 exca-
vator to do the heavy lifting, the installationof the system proceeded slower than usualdue to the use of a hyrdo-vac truck and handdigging every couple feet to try and exposethe two active lines that were the cause of the
job. The system used on this job measured20 ft.-wide (6.1 m) by 40 ft.-long (12.2 m)and more than 20 ft. deep (6.1 m).“The next time we use a slide rail system,
I will be able to send out a smaller crew forthe install and removal,” said Buck Hines,job superintendent, Price-GregoryInternational. “With our learning curve, theinstallation process took a little while, but thenext one will be able to get done a lot quick-er.”With every excavation project, safety
should be the number one concern. Thisproject was no different. Along with the safe-ty of the crew that would be working insidethe Slide Rail System, concern had to bepaid to the proximity of the MortonArboretum and a nearby active highway.“When I was down in the hole, with the
Slide Rail System in place, I felt safe downthere,” said Hines. “We had all the local firedepartments and other safety people out tothe site, they were all pleased with the lookand the safety the Slide Rail System provid-ed.”When asked about his overall thoughts on
the Slide Rail System, Hines said, “with anydeep excavation, you are going to needsomething, whether it is slip-sheeting, tightsheeting or this Slide Rail System. Afterusing the Slide Rail System, I like it betterthan any of the other options. I would rec-ommend this system and plan on using itagain.”For more information, visit www.pro-

ASA Midwest Council Officials Receive Prestigious HonorsThe national American Subcontractors Association (ASA)
recently recognized ASA Midwest Council ExecutiveDirector Susan Winkelmann as the “New Executive Directorof the Year” and past ASA Midwest Council President A.J.Ford as “Chapter President of the Year” during a recentawards ceremony in Alexandria, Va. The event was held inconjunction with the ASA Champions Academy. The ASA Task Force on Chapter Services, composed of
ASA members and chapter executives from across the coun-try, selected Winkelmann and Ford for the honors.Winkelmann was given the prestigious award for demon-
strating outstanding performance in overall association man-agement during her first 12 months as an executive directorwith an ASA chapter. Hired by ASA in Sept. 2011, Winkelmann previously
served as a community volunteer for four years, three yearsas a business manager for Wink, Inc. in St. Louis and 11years for Reebok in Chicago, Ill., and St. Louis, Mo. “Our New Executive Director of the Year had the chal-
lenge of earning the respect and proving value in an era when
every member firm is evaluating every expense,” said ChipRohrbach, ASA task force on chapter services co-chairman,FA Rohrbach, Allentown, Pa.“According to the nominator, our winner ‘quickly gained
respect with her diligent work ethic and attitude.’ And, hesaid, through the transition, ‘we did not have a hiccup or ball
dropped, even with our aggressive schedule of meetings andnew programs.’”A.J. Ford is vice president of marketing and sales for
Budrovich Contracting, St. Louis’ largest crane rental com-pany. As ASA Midwest Council president 2011-2012, Fordwas recognized for his superior leadership efforts in moti-vating the chapter’s leaders and staff to achieve the associa-tion’s goals.“This includes more than just presiding over meetings,”
said Rohrbach, who presented the award. “It also includeshelping to establish goals that are a stretch and then guidingand cajoling chapter leaders to attain those goals.”Ford established clear goals for the ASA-Midwest
Council:• Help members be smarter business people.• Position the chapter as the voice of the subcontracting
community.• Provide networking opportunities for members to share
information and drive fair competition with general contrac-tors.• Provide regular communication with and meaningful
service to members.• “Our 2011-12 President of the Year achieved all of this
and more, all while working closely to transition to a newexecutive director,” Rohrbach said.

Sales of New Homes Remained Near Two-Year High in Aug.signs that the housing market is making asustained comeback. Sales of new homes remained near a two-
year high in August. And home prices rosenationwide in July compared with a year ear-lier, according to the Standard &Poor’s/Case-Shiller index. That was the sec-
ond straight year-over-year gain. Construction of single-family homes rose
in August to the fastest annual rate in morethan two years. Home sales have been boosted by ultra-
low mortgage rates. A limited supply ofhomes for sale also has helped drive pricesup.
Despite the positive strides, sales of newhomes and the pace of new constructionremain well short of levels consideredhealthy. And while many economists antici-pate the turnaround will continue gainingmomentum next year, the housing marketisn’t expected to recover fully until jobgrowth improves and the unemployment
rate, now at 7.8 percent, declines further. Though new homes represent less than 20
percent of the housing sales market, theyhave an outsize impact on the economy.Each home built creates an average of threejobs for a year and generates about $90,000in tax revenue, according to the NAHB’sdata.

Lokotrack LT106 Jaw Plant Features Increase Efficiency
The LT106 jaw plant has new features that deliver higher capacity and lower operating costs.
Feed hopper sides and locking mecha-nism are hydraulically operated.
Pages 55-71
Crushing, Screening & Recycling SectionMetso’s Lokotrack LT106 jaw plant has new
features designed to deliver higher productivityat lower cost per ton. The updated LT106 has arobust crusher drive and heavy-duty air filtra-tion system with pre-cleaner requiring lessmaintenance. High-inertia flywheels meanfewer power peaks, so the engine consistentlyoperates at optimum speed, lowering fuel con-sumption by as much as 25 to 30 percent,according to the manufacturer.
Improved PerformanceThe LT106 is built around Metso’s C106 jaw,
featuring a 42 by 28 in. (106 by 71 cm) crush-ing chamber for high output. The LT106 also isfitted with an aggressive vibrating feeder. Anadvanced Metso IC700 control and monitoringsystem with ultrasonic level sensor automati-cally adjusts feed rate for peak productivity.
A new hydraulic system, coupled with anenvironmentally friendly, low-emission CatC9.3 Tier IV or C9 Tier III engine and high-inertiaflywheels, offers fuel efficiency of 4 to 6gal. (17 to 22 L) per hour on average withoutcompromising process flexibility, safety ordurability of the hydraulic drive.
Setting Standards in MobilityThe Lokotrack LT106’s compact dimensions
and agility on tracks mean lower transport costsbetween and within crushing sites. The chassisdesign, with good clearance on both ends,enables safe and easy loading onto a trailer. Theunit is ready for crushing or transport withinminutes, due to the feed hopper with a safehydraulic securing system and radial side con-veyor.
Safe and Easy to OperateNew design features, such as engine and fly-
wheel composite covers, together with largeservice platforms and accessibility make dailyoperations safe and easy.
“There are so many things you can point tothat make this new Lokotrack LT106 betterthan the previous one,” said Tommi Lehtonen,Metso vice president, mobiles. “It is complete-ly re-engineered, design work was driven byour close relationship with our customers, andthe result is a more efficient, reliable and pro-ductive machine. Naturally, we made it thesafest machine to operate in the industry.”

Powerscreen Warrior 1400XOffers Easier ServiceabilityPowerscreen, a provider of mobile crush-
ing and screening equipment, launched thenew Warrior 1400X screen.Damian Power, Powerscreen global
product director said: “The newPowerscreen Warrior 1400X offersimproved performance, lower operatingcosts and easier serviceability while build-ing on the reliable foundation of our class-leading Warrior 1400 scalper.”The 1400X has been designed with econ-
omy in mind. With reduced engine runningspeed and enhanced hydraulics, the 1400Xoffers a reduction in fuel consumption of upto 15 percent in comparison to its predeces-sor. This can translate into a substantialfinancial saving for customers over the life-time of the machine.Improved versatility and design specifi-
cations are other key achievements of theWarrior 1400X, with the screening anglerange widening of 13 to 19 degrees.Standard stockpiling capacity on all con-veyors has increased by up to 25 percent.With the chassis riser option and the tele-scopic side conveyor option, the fines andmid-grade stockpiling capacity is increasedto more than double that of a standard
Warrior 1400, according to the manufactur-er.Time required for set-up and shutdown is
faster than the previous model, which willbe of particular benefit to contractors.Serviceability features include a screen boxraise function and the ability to raise thecollection conveyor. Optimal chute designin conjunction with the new feeder under-tray slide-out feature will minimize anypotential spillage and reduce any harmfulmaterial build-up around the machine.The Warrior 1400X now boasts
improved mobility with a two speed track-ing system as standard. The high speedmode is further enhanced with automaticengine speed ramp-up making the 1400Xthe fastest tracked machine in its range,according to the manufacturer.The Warrior 1400X can be fitted with
either a Tier III/Stage 3A Caterpillar C4.4ATAAC — 4 cylinder diesel engine devel-oping 120 hp (90 kW) at 1800 rpm, or aTier IVi/Stage 3B Caterpillar C4.4 — 4cylinder diesel engine developing 110 hp(82 kW) at 1800 rpm.For more information, visit

W.S. Tyler Pro-Deck Vibrating ScreenOptimizes Maximum Productivity
W.S. Tyler’s Pro-Deck System is a new approach to max-imizing a screening system. The Pro-Deck approach imple-ments an analysis and modification strategy in processingoperations to maximize screen productivity and minimizewear by selecting the appropriate type of screen mediaaccording to the three phases of screening. This consultativeapproach results in a fully optimized screening process forgreater efficiency and productivity, as well as less unsched-uled maintenance and extended screen life, according to themanufacturer.The Pro-Deck is not based on a canned formula but rather
implements a customized approach for each plant’s specificneeds. It combines W.S. Tyler’s years of screening expertisewith an analytical approach to determine the best mix ofscreen media for each individual operation. Traditionally,processing operations tend to use the same screen media oneach deck of the vibrating screen. But after extensiveresearch and years of experience, W.S. Tyler concluded thata non-traditional approach of incorporating more than onescreen media serves to prevent lost efficiency and unsched-uled maintenance. Additionally, the Pro-Deck system helpsto eliminate common screening problems such as blinding,pegging, premature wear and unscheduled downtime.Material traveling over a screen undergoes three different
phases. W.S. Tyler calls these phases layered, basic and sharpscreening phase. With each phase of the screening function-ing differently, a customized screen media approach helpstailor the screen media to each phase accounting for the twomost important factors in screen media — open area andwear life.In addition to considering the phases of screening, the Pro-
Deck approach also evaluates material characteristics, thecurrent functioning of the plant and final output qualities toensure the best blending of screen media. Adjustments to thescreen media are made one section at a time and results areclosely monitored to ensure the highest quality output and
maximum productivity. With analysis of material character-istics and adapting the screen media to accommodate wet,dry or even abrasive materials, the Pro-Deck approachbecomes a scientific approach to screen media. The Tyler Pro-Deck approach begins with an onsite visit
to the vibrating screen. Using its self-developed vibrationanalysis tool available, W.S. Tyler’s screening experts ensurethat the machine is working within operational parametersthat cater to the application requirements of the material. Thescreening expert then determines the critical deck and sec-tion(s) within the screen. On the basis of screen performanceas well as the wear experienced on the section(s) and deck, arecommendation for screen media modification is made.Upon installation of the new screen media, the results aremeasured and documented and the focus is laid on the nextsection(s). This process continues until all recommendationsare implemented to the screen. This step by step approachensures that the customer’s product quality is only positive-ly enhanced and never negatively affected. In addition itallows the customer to verify the new performance and wearadvantages continuously.The Pro-Deck approach can be applied to any vibrating
screen unit in virtually any application. A large variety ofscreen media in combination with the vbration analysis per-formance tool make Pro-Deck a comprehensive and com-plete approach, according to the manufacturer. The W.S. Tyler screen media offering consists of a com-
plete package and includes a variety of products from wovenwire cloth and specialty Cobra Vibe to polyurethane panelsand the Ty-Wire hybrid screen. W.S. Tyler is a member of the wholly owned German-
based Haver & Tyler Processing Technology Alliance, and amanufacturer, systems provider and specialist in the screen-ing, washing and pelletizing industry. For more information, call 800/325-5993 or visit

Superior Industries Return Roll Extends Conveyor Belt LifeSuperior Industries’ Urathon Return Roll sheds sticky material, ensuring
smoother conveyor belt alignment and less belt damage, making it ideal foruse in the mining, aggregates and other bulk material handling industries.Constructed of heavy-duty 87A durometer urethane, Urathon return rollersoffer up to three times the life of rubber disc-style idlers, and are availablein standard and spiral disc options.The Urathon return roll’s non-stick properties prevent build-up of wet and
sticky material on the roller discs, leading to smoother operation, greaterproductivity and minimized belt damage, according to the manufacturer. Material build-up is the leading cause of conveyor belt mistracking and
damage. When excessive material accumulates, rollers can double in size,which can cause issues with belt alignment that lead to downtime. In severecases, the rollers become so weighed down by excess material that they stopworking altogether. As the belt continues to slide over the stalled rollers,expensive ripping and other damage can occur. The Urathon return roller also reduces downtime for changeouts and
excessive maintenance, minimizing overall costs. Both rolls are self-clean-ing, and the spiral style offers an added cleaning action on the underside ofthe belt to further reduce maintenance requirements caused by carrybackmaterial. The standard roll is available in a 5, 6, or 7-in. diameters (12.7, 15.2, 17.8
cm), while the spiral roll is offered in a 6-in. (15.2 cm) diameter. Both mod-els are compatible with conveyor belts ranging from 18 to 96 in. (45.7 to243.8 cm) in width, and CEMA load rated at E, D, C or B.Superior Industries manufactures stackers, transfer conveyors, stationary
systems, idlers, pulleys and accessories. Superior Industries, established in 1972, is headquartered in Morris,
Minn., and manufactures from two additional plants in Arizona andGeorgia. For more information, visit www.superior-ind.com.

Drivers Ready for Challenging, World-Class Road Coursethe bad sections,” Baise said, “by taking upall the [temporary] sealant and replacing itwith concrete sealant.”In addition to the core samples from
around the track, they videotaped sewer linesto look for damage and drainage obstruc-tions. “The pipe was crushed in some areas,”said Baise. “Tree roots that grew in had to bemachine-cut out.” Chunks of concrete were found under-
ground, 150 ft. from manholes, but due to alimited budget, they are unable to beaddressed for the time being. However, ifthere is a problem in the future, Baise saidthey know what needs to be done and“what’s under there.”Belle Isle is a “flat piece of ground that’s
hard to drain,” as Baise describes it. Thewater table is high on the island, complicat-ing drainage. Infrastructure that is 40 to 50years old hasn’t been able to withstand theweather or the wear and tear. Old catchbasins were not precast; they were poured inplace or created using cement block.Because of those factors, wherever crews
worked on the road, they also rebuilt under-neath: catch basins, new concrete pipes andnew edge drains to get rid of the water. Turn11 is one of the areas that has all new catchbasin and piping.
Paving the Way for a Better RaceNot all of the underground work involved
plumbing. Baise explains that the previouspromoter had to cover the track surfacebetween Turns 3 and 4 between races withdirt and grass. That now has to be removed.“We’re still cleaning, but the concrete buried
beneath it is in good shape,” he said.However, the shoulders will have to be re-graded for drainage.After the storm sewer work, curb work
was next on the chain of events. Crewsworked on elevations and baseline. Next,they did the flat work: forming for roadwayitself. It was complicated in some areasbecause they had to warp the road pitch atthe crown to meet the turns, but still ensurethat drainage goes to the catch basins, notinto an off-camber collection area. The job required 84,000 to 86,000 sq. ft.
(25603.2 to 26212.8 m) of concrete 9 in.thick with steel reinforcement for the roadand curb. Baise estimates that 40 to 50 guyswere on site for big pours. “We poured cen-ter-to-curb on both sides and tied in the mid-
dle with steel pins.”In addition to the 6-inch box curbs bor-
dering the track, red and white “racingcurbs” were poured with no breaks. Thesecurbs, roughly 24-30 in. wide, extend twofeet into the roadway to create chicanes thedrivers have to maneuver.The roadway still has seams. “They’re
necessary expansion joints for movementbecause of the freeze-thaw cycles,” Baisesaid. Approximately 3,000 sq. ft. (914.4 m)of asphalt is being installed in limited areas,such as the new straightway, which hasraised manholes. Fifty feet of the old Turn 3and 75-100 ft (22.9-30.5 m) of the new Turn3 are also getting asphalt in areas where theold asphalt came unraveled, according toBaise.
Although the asphalt mix used was “a lit-tle different” than the typical mix, “regular”concrete was used on the project. “We had tostay with products in city code,” Baise said.The Grand Prix may have funded the proj-ect, but the city had approval, so crews hadto build to city specifications.
Racing the ClockWork on the Belle Isle track began on
Sept. 11 and is expected to be completedsoon if rain doesn’t interfere with the sched-ule. Sidewalks, landscaping and seeding stillneed to be done. The six-week schedule isespecially impressive, considering therewere about six days when crews couldn’twork because they were waiting on testresults to determine if the concrete was
strong enough to drive on, said Baise.The compressed schedule – an attempt to
beat the weather – put pressure on the team,as did the need to maintain access during theproject. “We only closed certain sections,”Baise said. “One section was closed twoweeks, another five weeks – but peoplecould go around the island because we leftthe Strand open. It didn’t affect use of thepark.”The real test will come next June 1-2,
when the IZOD IndyCar series returns forthe “Dual in Detroit” – two 70-lap races, oneof which will introduce standing starts.“We’re so excited to host the first IndyCardoubleheader of the season,” Denker said,adding that his goal is to make the race a per-manent fixture on the schedule. “Our visionis to have this race here for a long time.”While the tight schedule may have added
extra pressure, knowing that the 2013IndyCar event is the series’ first double-header doesn’t. “We want it to be rightbecause it needs to be,” said Baise. CEG
Work on the Belle Isle track began on Sept. 11 and is expected to be completed soon if rain doesn’t interfere with the schedule.
Local contractors M&B Contracting, from Metamora, Ill., andPollard Concrete Services, both of whom have done work on theisland before, partnered on this project.
The job required 84,000 to 86,000 sq. ft. (25603.2 to26212.8 m) of concrete 9 in. thick with steel reinforce-ment for the road and curb.

Caterpillar Unveils First Hybrid Excavator, Cat 336E HCaterpillar Inc. unveiled the first model in its new line of
hybrid excavators, the Cat 336E H, at its Mossville IndustrialDesign Center on Oct. 16 at a special trade press event, “TheNext Generation is Here.” The new 336E H will be sold andserviced exclusively through the global Cat dealer networkfollowing the machine’s official launch at bauma 2013 inMunich, Germany. The order board for the Cat 336E Hopens in Feb. 2013, with factory shipments begin-ning in March 2013.The Cat 336E H uses a new hydraulic hybrid
technology developed by Caterpillar. “A hybrid is independent of any particular tech-
nology — it doesn’t have to be electric,” said KenGray, global product manager of large hydraulicexcavators for Caterpillar’s excavation division.“There are many ways to store and reuse energy,including our patented hydraulic hybrid system fea-tured on the Cat 336E H.“Caterpillar has developed, built, and tested elec-
tric hybrid excavators, but—until now—we had notfound a hybrid approach that would actually lowerour customers’ owning and operating costs,” Graysaid. “Large excavators operate in high-productionapplications in which fuel is a very significant oper-ating cost for our customers. So, the 336E H, thehybrid version of our workhorse 336E, is ideal forintroducing our new hydraulic hybrid technology,with its more than 300 filed patents.“We can’t wait to see the reaction of our cus-
tomers to the 336E H,” said Gray. “We’re confident they willbe delighted. No other commercially available technologyhas higher power density than hydraulics, and that’s why weselected a hydraulic solution to help our customers achievesubstantial fuel savings. The 336E H also meets stringentTier IV Interim/Stage IIIB emission standards. It is extraor-dinarily quiet, too. So it’s a socially responsible machine forour customers to own, and they will sacrifice nothing interms of performance, power, force, speed or production.Once more, the owning and operating costs for the 336E Hare actually lower than the standard machine. That’s thevalue customers expect from Cat excavators.”“The 336E H is a game-changer — the most revolution-
ary excavator to come to market in decades,” said GaryStampanato, vice president of Caterpillar’s excavation divi-sion. “Customers aren’t going to choose the 336E H simplybecause it is sustainable. They will select it because it actu-ally lowers their owning and operating costs, and maintainsthe performance of our industry leader, the 336E. Caterpillarhas the most productive and fuel-efficient excavator productline in the industry, and our customers are supported by thebest dealers in the world. The 336E H extends our leader-ship, is the right thing to do for our customers and is a signof great things to come.”
Technology“Caterpillar’s corporate technology strategy centers on
research and development in advancing technology to meetcustomers’ needs today, which is what the 336E H does,”said Tana Utley, Caterpillar’s chief technology officer andvice president of the product development and global tech-nology division. “We’re also continuously working on inno-vations that we anticipate will meet their future needs. That’swhy we’re continuing our research and development in elec-tric hybrid technology too, which actually began our hybriddevelopment path several years ago.”
“Caterpillar has an extraordinary team of people workingon hybrid technology solutions for the next generation of Cathydraulic excavators,” added Gray. “They are from everycorner of the world, are among the very best and brightestminds, and they are listening very closely to our customers.It’s exciting for me to see their enthusiasm for this projectand the quality product they have developed in the 336E H,
and we’re just getting started.”“I am absolutely confident our engineers will continue to
discover and develop the best hybrid approaches forCaterpillar’s extensive line of equipment and applications,whether that’s some form of hydraulic or electric hybrid sys-tem or something as of yet unknown,” Utley added. “AtCaterpillar, we don’t simply engage in creating new tech-nologies like the hydraulic hybrid system just for technolo-gy’s sake, or simply to prove that we can. Our technologystrategy’s focus never loses sight of what our research anddevelopment efforts can mean to our customers’ success —today and in the future.” Since the introduction of the 300 Series in 1994, the fam-
ily of excavators has become an industry standard in a largevariety of general, quarry and heavy construction applica-tions. Caterpillar introduced the standard 336E in 2010 as adirect replacement for the 336D. The 336E was introducedprimarily to meet Tier IV Interim/Stage IIIB emissions stan-
dards, and like any new Cat machine, the 336E includes sev-eral enhancements over its predecessor, including morehorsepower with greater fuel efficiency, more lift capability,higher digging force and automatic aftertreatment regenera-tion, according to the manufacturer.The 336E H has all of the same powerful advantages of
the 336E with the biggest difference between the two mod-els being even greater fuel efficiency. To achieveadded fuel savings, the design of the 336E H usesthree building block technologies that: • Conserve fuel with engine power management
via the Cat electronic standardized programmable(ESP) pump, which smoothly transitions betweenthe hydraulic hybrid power sources, engine andaccumulator. • Optimize performance using restriction manage-
ment via the Cat adaptive control system (ACS)valve, which intelligently manages restrictions andflows to seamlessly control machine motion with noloss of power, and to ensure operators experience nodifference in control, hydraulic power or lift capabil-ity. • Reuse energy via the hydraulic hybrid swing sys-
tem, which captures the excavator’s upper structureswing brake energy in accumulators, and then releas-es the energy during swing acceleration.
Fuel SavingsThe 336E H delivers up to 50 percent greater fuel
efficiency, which is measured in tons per liter, over the 336D.Customers can expect the 336E H to use up to 25 percentless fuel compared to a standard 336E, and up to 33 percentless fuel than the 330/336D. All three of the technologybuilding blocks, conserve, optimize and reuse, are integratedtogether to maximize fuel savings in a variety of applica-tions. Even in low-intensity swing applications, customerswill still experience significant fuel savings because of theconserve and optimize technologies, according to the manu-facturer.
Return on Hybrid InvestmentBecause the 336E H burns less fuel and reduces regulated
engine emissions, owning and operating costs will be dra-matically lower compared to the standard machine, and itscarbon footprint will be smaller, as well. Precisely when cus-tomers will recoup their initial investment in a 336E Hdepends on fuel prices and their applications. Assumingtoday’s fuel prices and a high-production application for a336E H, Caterpillar estimates customers can realisticallyexpect to see a return on their investment for the hybrid exca-vator model in as little as one year.

New Design Unveiled for Capitol Christmas Tree HaulMack Trucks unveiled the custom-deco-
rated MACK Pinnacle model, which will bedriven by former U.S. Sen. Ben NighthorseCampbell as he hauls the 2012 CapitolChristmas Tree from Colorado toWashington, D.C. The theme of the design is “From One
National Treasure to Another,” pointing toMack’s 112-year legacy. The truck featuresMack the Bulldog hauling a massive treethrough the snow, with large mountains inthe background. “The Capitol Christmas Tree is a great tra-
dition in the United States, and Mack isproud to once again participate in the proj-ect,” said John Walsh, Mack vice presidentof marketing. “The design for this year’sPinnacle model captures Mack’s legendarydurability and reliability in a unique and funway. ” Campbell, who represented Colorado
from 1993-2005, also helped transport theCapitol Christmas Tree in 2000.
“It is a privilege to drive the tree for theU.S. Capitol from Colorado this year,” saidCampbell. “It’s just as exciting, though, toget behind the wheel of a Mack truck again.I know I can count on a great ride and auniquely American holiday experience.”Choose Outdoors, a national nonprofit
coalition for outdoor recreation, is coordinat-ing the 2012 Capitol Christmas Tree tourwith the White River National Forest. The Capitol Christmas Tree tour officially
began Nov. 3 in Meeker, Colo., where thetree will be harvested from the 2.3 million-acre White River National Forest, located inthe heart of the Rocky Mountains.Following a celebration in Meeker, the treewill be wrapped and embark on its route tothe nation’s capital, stopping at numerouscities and towns throughout Colorado,Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri, North Carolina,Pennsylvania and Virginia. The SmartWay-certified Pinnacle Axle
Back model sleeper is equipped with a trail-er, donated by Hale Trailer Brake and Wheelof Allentown, Pa. The trailer will be fittedwith a custom-built cradle to support thetree’s branches. The tree will find its holidayhome on the Capitol lawn shortly afterThanksgiving, when it will be decoratedwith ornaments made by Colorado youthand lit with 10,000 low-energy LED lights in
a ceremony led by Speaker of the HouseJohn Boehner (R-OH). Mack most recently provided a truck for
the Capitol Christmas Tree Project in 2011,when the tree traveled cross country fromStanislaus National Forest in California’sSierra Nevada Mountains. Since 1964, U.S.national forests rotate the responsibility ofproviding a tree for the Capitol.

The new AD60, with a rated payload capacity of 66 tons(60 t), is now the largest model in the Cat range of under-ground articulated trucks, providing a 9 percent capacityincrease over the AD55B. The new truck incorporatesadvanced heat-shielding and cooling technology, significantrefinement of its Cat C27 ACERT engine, enhanced ridecharacteristics, and now-standard monitoring systems,including the Cat VIMS guardian and truck payload man-agement systems. Premium standard features include achoice of integrated body styles, electronic retarding, cli-mate-controlled cab and ground level servicing.
Engine and CoolingThe Cat C27 engine, rated at 776 to 805 gross hp (579 to
600 kW), has been significantly refined for the AD60,including new pistons and high temperature fuel injectors,more durable rocker arm assemblies, a redesigned crankshaftlubrication system, a high efficiency engine oil cooler and ahigher capacity fuel cooler. The sum of these refinements isadded durability, reliability and cooling efficiency for theC27.
New for the AD60 is a remote-mount-ed transmission oil cooler that ensuresoptimum operating temperature for theseven-speed Cat planetary powershifttransmission, which features a lock-uptorque converter for efficient, fuel-savingoperation, as well as an electronically con-trolled retarding system for optimum safe-ty and productivity. The new coolerlessens the heat load on the engine oilcooler, allowing the engine cooler to func-tion more efficiently.
The new heat-shielding system isolatesheat from the exhaust manifolds, tur-bocharger impeller, and exhaust piping toreduce engine compartment temperaturesand to provide a cooler environment forsurrounding components. In addition tobeing more effective, the heat shield alsois easier to install and remove. New venti-
lated hoods and covers allow effective heat dissipation andassist in passive cooling of component compartments.
Operator Environment and SuspensionThe spacious, comfortable, well protected operator station
is now equipped with a standard air-ride seat, the CatComfort TLV2, which features electric adjustment of firm-ness and a design that minimizes vertical and lateral motionimparted to the operator. Updates to the front suspension sys-tem contribute to ride stability and operator comfort.
Value-Adding Features Premium features in the AD60 design include electronic
integration of the engine and drive train, providing con-trolled-throttle shifting, overspeed protection, and body-upshift inhibitor. The now standard truck payload managementsystem calculates payload data, and the VIMS guardian sys-tem provides operators, service technicians and managerswith machine health information to ensure high mechanicalavailability.
The choice of a dump or ejector body allows tailoring the
AD60 to different applications, andthe single-stage hoist cylinderspeeds cycle times. The framedesign features box-section con-struction with materials and weld-ing techniques that optimize struc-tural life, and the articulation/oscil-lation hitch promotes stability andmaneuverability in all types ofground conditions.
Four-wheel, oil-cooled, multipledisc brakes provide reliable, non-fade stopping power, adding to theAD60 safety features, whichinclude an integral ROPS/FOPScab, ground-level shut-downswitch, operator presence system,anti-skid deck surfaces, and push-out safety glass.

Mack Takes Integration Leadership to New LevelIn line with its commitment to maximiz-
ing customer value, Mack Trucks Inc. intro-duced two new offerings that build upon thecompany’s longstanding leadership in inte-grated products: the MACK SuperEconodyne powertrain and MACK PedigreeUptime Protection service and support pack-age.Integrated powertrains have been at the
heart of Mack since its inception in 1900.Today, every truck with a MACK PedigreePowertrain — proprietary engine, transmis-sion and axles — features a gold Bulldog onthe hood. The new MACK SuperEconodyne capitalizes upon the company’sPedigree Powertrain expertise to providecustomers with a 3.5 percent improvementin fuel economy, according to the manufac-turer. The new Mack Pedigree Uptime
Protection is an integrated package of after-market solutions ensuring customer satisfac-tion throughout the service, parts purchasingand asset protection experience. “Mack recognized more than 112 years
ago that components designed to worktogether provide superior performance,” said
John Walsh, Mack vice president, market-ing. “The new Super Econodyne powertrain
package we’re rolling out here at MATS is aperfect example of what we can accomplishwith a Mack Pedigree Powertrain. WithPedigree Uptime Protection, we’re extend-ing the concept of integration beyond theproduct — integrating the entire truck own-ership experience to deliver a total businesssolution that keeps our customers out in frontof their competition.”
Super Econodyne Increases Fuel Efficiency, Maximizes Performance
The Super Econodyne powertrain systemis designed with all-Mack proprietary com-ponents for a complete MACK PedigreePowertrain. The MACK MP8-445SEengine, MACK mDRIVE automated manu-al transmission, MACK C125 proprietarydrive axles and Mack’s custom software allcombine to offer a system designed for fuelefficiency without compromising power orperformance. The result is up to 3.5 percentbetter fuel efficiency compared to other sim-
ilarly spec’d vehicles, according to the man-ufacturer. Ideal for dry van, refrigerated, liquid and
dry bulk haul, and flatbed operations, SuperEconodyne is available on all MACKPinnacle models, a Class 8 commercial vehi-cle already known as a fuel-efficiency leaderamong on-highway trucks. With the additionof Super Econodyne, rated up to 88,000 lbs.GCWR, the aerodynamic Pinnacle offerseven greater operating benefits while main-taining driver satisfaction. Contributing to the fuel-efficiency
improvement is the Super Econodyne’s“down speed” feature. Super Econodyne isengineered to “down speed” more than 200rpm at a highway speed of 65 mph, cruisingat 1,160 rpm versus 1,380 rpm. This reducesfuel consumption by up to 2 percent com-pared with previous engine models, with acorresponding reduction in CO2 emissions.The Mack proprietary C125 drive axlesdeliver an additional 1.5 percent fuel econo-my improvement.“Super Econodyne builds upon our
roots,” said David McKenna, Mack directorof powertrain sales. “Mack pioneered thelow-speed Econodyne engines in the 1960s.Historically, we’ve insisted on gearing fast,running slow. Now, we’ve designed a com-pletely integrated system to run efficiently at450 rpm above idle speed when before itwas 700 to 800 rpm above idle speed.”The Mack MP8-445SE offers 445 hp
(332 kW) and up to 1,760 lb.-ft. of torque.The C125 axles have a 2.66:1 ratio. All pow-ertrain components communicate with eachother via Mack software.“It’s the ultimate in complete powertrain
integration,” McKenna said. “The engineseamlessly communicates with the transmis-sion, which seamlessly communicates withthe vehicle, resulting in instantaneous deci-sions. Add the Mack C125 drive axle, andwe’re talking about fuel-efficiency benefitsnever before realized in a powertrain sys-tem.” Key to the fuel efficiency delivered with
the Super Econodyne powertrain package isthe Mack mDRIVE transmission. The 12-speed automated manual has no clutchpedal, and the gearshift is operated by anintelligent shift pad module and managed bysophisticated electronics. mDRIVE continu-ously monitors changes in grade (both upand down), vehicle speed, throttle position,acceleration, torque demand and combinedvehicle weight. The mDRIVE transmissionfeatures Mack’s, two-speed reverse func-tionality that better controls road speed and
engine speed.
Pedigree Uptime Protection Enhances Ease of Use, Communication
Pedigree Uptime Protection is an integrat-ed package of aftermarket solutions withthree components: Bulldog ServiceManagement, Bulldog Parts Purchasing andBulldog Asset Protection. Bulldog ServiceManagement is powered by MVASIST andincludes MACK OneCall. MVASISTallows customers to improve communica-tions, manage costs, reduce downtime andincrease operating efficiency. Through anonline portal, customers are able to commu-nicate with the dealer, initiate repairs, accessa complete service history, approve andmonitor repair status and manage repairexpenses. Recently, the company announced that
MVASIST comes free-of-charge on any newMack truck delivered after Jan. 1, 2012.MACK OneCall is a full-service supportcenter that manages breakdown assistance,towing services, technical support and real-time online case tracking. Bulldog Parts Purchasing enables 24/7
parts purchasing online and offers onlineaccess to purchase and invoice history.Bulldog Asset Protection includes purchasedcoverage and provides preventive mainte-nance programs performed at any Mackdealer in the U.S. as well as inspectionsbased on CSA guidelines.“We listened to what our customers said
they needed from an aftermarket perspec-tive, and we developed an integrated all-encompassing solution tailored to theirneeds,” said Dave Albert, Mack director ofaftermarket solutions. “Customers said they wanted a solution
that would improve communication withdealers and service technicians. They saidthey wanted to get back on the road fasterand to have the ability to order parts around-the-clock. Pedigree Uptime Protection offersall of those benefits and more.”“The combination of our Super
Econodyne Pedigree Powertrain andPedigree Uptime Protection package estab-lishes a new industry standard in total busi-ness solutions,” Walsh said. “It really comesdown to having the customer’s back —delivering on the Mack promise of durabili-ty, reliability and application excellencethroughout the truck ownership experience.” For more information, visit www.mack-

East Introduces LowestAluminum Drop Deck Trailer
Designed for increased payload versatilityand better stability, East Manufacturingintroduced an all-aluminum drop deck trail-er with a low-slung 36 in. (91 cm) deckheight. “Specialty loads, particularly equipment
loads, keep getting taller and taller,” notedBill McKenzie, director of dealer develop-ment and flatbed products at East. “With thenew low-height East drop deck there is lessneed for partial dismantling of the load to getit below the 13 feet 6 inch maximum legalheight. So haulers have a lot more flexibility in
terms of the loads they can haul both effi-
ciently and profitably.”An added advantage of the 36 in. drop
deck height is its lower center of gravity.This provides the trailer with improved sta-bility, which increases in value the moreunusual the size and shape of the load,according to the manufacturer.Because the new East low-slung drop
deck is all-aluminum, it provides an idealbalance of strength and weight to allow evengreater payload optimization. It is availablein multi-axle configurations, in lengths up to53 ft. (16 m). For more information, call 888/405-3278

and reliability enhancementsaccompany interim Tier IV (iT4)compliance on the Doosan DL550wheel loader, which replaces theDL500 loader model.Improvements ranging from moreengine horsepower to increaseddriving power and steering capabil-ities highlight the 7.5-cu.-yd. (5.7cu m) wheel loader.The DL550 is the largest wheel
loader in the Doosan line. With anoperating weight of 69,655 lbs.(31,595 kg), breakout force of58,450 lbs. and a full-turn tippingcapacity of 48,061 lbs. (21,800 kg),the DL550 is designed for largermaterial handling applications,such as quarries, mines and manu-facturing operations.
PowerThe DL550 horsepower has been
increased to 380 (283 kW) with a 6-cylinder diesel engine that has beenoptimized for use with selective cat-alyst reduction (SCR) and dieselexhaust fluid (DEF) to comply withiT4 emission regulations. Engineswith this configuration are opti-mized to reduce particulate matter(PM) by operating at higher com-bustion temperatures and to reducenitrogen oxides (NOX) withexhaust after-treatment using SCRtechnology. Additionally, SCR systems offerincreased fuel efficiency due to the engineoptimization, which improves fuel burn.The 775-cu.-in. (12.7 L) engine features a
high-pressure common-rail (HPCR) designwith direct fuel injection, electronic controland four valves per cylinder. The high-pres-sure common-rail system increases the effi-ciency of fuel delivery by increasing thepressure up to 34,000 psi. The increasedpressure allows the injector to inject a finermist into the engine, which results in a moreefficient combustion that in turn producesmore torque and improved fuel economy,less noise, lower operating costs and cleanerexhaust, according to the manufacturer.
PerformanceDesigned with improved lifting perform-
ance, the DL550 offers operators the abilityto set upper and lower limits for both the liftarm and bucket stop positions from insidethe cab. This provides improved control ofthe lift arm and bucket positions and is par-ticularly useful when setting return-to-digpositions for the lift arm and bucket, whichreduces cycle times in digging and loadingapplications. This feature allows the DL550to effectively move material overhead with a
dump height of 11 ft. 2 in. (3.4 m).The new automatic reversing cooling fan
can be set to run in reverse to assist in keep-ing the cooling system clean. The operatorcan select to reverse the fan via a switch, orit can be set to automatically reverse on apreset time frame. Each time the fan revers-es, it will run in reverse for few minutes toclean the cooling system. This helps in dirtyand dusty conditions to keep the machinerunning at optimal performance, using lesspower to cool the machine. This results inlonger working hours and shorter mainte-nance time to clean the cooling system.This wheel loader’s new auto-idle feature
provides additional noise reduction and fuelsavings by reducing the working idle of thewheel loader from 950 rpm to a standby idlesetting of 750 rpm when the machine is inac-tive for a short period of time.The upgraded DL550 features a hydraulic
locking differential available as an alterna-tive to the standard limited slip differential.The hydraulic locking differential comesstandard and provides increased drivingpower when one wheel spins or loses trac-tion, allowing the machine to navigate toughterrain. The differential may be locked man-ually or automatically, based on ground con-ditions.
Another common option for the DL550 isa torque converter lockup clutch. Thisenables the machine to climb grades easierand faster, increasing productivity as muchas 20 percent in certain stockpiling applica-tions. For those requiring additional dump-ing capabilities, the DL550 also is availablein a high- lift configuration.
ComfortThe DL550 is now equipped with option-
al electric steering to decrease operatorfatigue during repetitive cycle operations onthe job site. A joystick has been added to theleft armrest that allows the operator to con-trol the directional movement without hav-ing to use the steering wheel. A new doormakes getting in and out of Doosan wheelloaders — and cleaning the inside of the cab— much easier. The air suspension seat withheat is offered standard on the DL550.Interior cabin improvements also include
a number of multi-function display panelupgrades on a centralized monitor thatallows the operator to view comprehensivemachine system information. The central-ized monitor displays critical machine infor-mation — such as engine rpm, enginecoolant temperature, fuel level, DEF level,machine warnings, time and the transmis-
sion selected gear. A key exterior cabinimprovement is lowered front side glass,providing improved visibility of operations.
ReliabilityMore new options for Doosan wheel load-
ers include a diesel-powered coolant heaterto improve starting in cold weather or ablock heater that warms the engine coolantbefore engine startup with an electricalheater.Service intervals on the front lift arm pins
have increased from 50 to 250 hours, reduc-ing operating costs and downtime. Tilt cylin-der hydraulic hoses have been rerouted forimproved hose reliability, better hose move-ment and improved visibility to the attach-ment.The DL550 — like every new Doosan
machine — is covered by a 48 hour partsguarantee. The program guarantees that if a“machine-debilitating” part is needed,Doosan will deliver it directly to the end userwithin two business days or Doosan will payfor a replacement machine rental. The 48hour parts guarantee is subject to carrierdelivery restrictions and/or governmentalagency delays.For more information, visit

are first zproduction machines built for customer acceptancetesting, to validate fuel burn, controllability, reliability andperformance of the 336E H. In a formal production studycompleted in August 2012, results included greater fuel effi-ciency, and lower cab and spectator noise levels than the336E and 336D. Additionally, the ACS valve, which intelli-gently manages restrictions and flows to seamlessly controlmachine motion, has been in the field since 2008 withincreased performance and reliability. The ACS and hybridsystem also have proven to work well together to maximizeperformance and controllability of work tools, includinghammers, shears and grapples, according to the manufactur-er.
Product Support and Dealer ReadinessCustomer support for the 336E H is provided exclusively
by the on-the-ground support of Caterpillar’s worldwidedealer network. For decades, Cat dealers have made signifi-cant and substantial investments in facilities, people andexpertise to support Cat excavators, including the new 336EH. Cat dealers know and understand hydraulics, and are pre-pared to consult with customers to help determine which Catexcavator model, whether hybrid or standard, is the bestmatch for a customer. Dealers also are equipped with toolsdeveloped by Caterpillar that help them weigh factors intotheir recommendations, including a customer’s projected
equipment use, budget and anticipated years of ownership tohelp ensure the proper decision. The 336E H also can bebundled with extended warranties and service contracts.
Caterpillar Position on TechnologyAccording to Utley, it is the company’s vertical integra-
tion and broad technology portfolio, coupled with its widerange of application experience that enable Caterpillar toselect and develop the optimal technologies for each Catmachine and varied customer applications.
“Our commitment is to match technologies to customervalue,” she said. “That means Caterpillar will include hybridelements in machines where it is evident those elements arethe most efficient and effective means of improving value toour customers, which is definitely what we’ve done with the336E H.
“Hybrid technology is a key element of our customer-focused technology portfolio, and so are our next generationpowertrains, autonomy, alternative fuels, and engine emis-sions and efficiency,” Utley added. “The new hydraulichybrid technology Caterpillar developed for the 336E H isan outstanding example of the results we’re achieving fromour technology strategy. It provides a critical bridge as wecontinue to research, develop and build the technologies ofthe future — technologies that will help ensure our cus-tomers’ business success.”

and proven welding technologies for the construction indus-try. Every piece of welding equipment Miron Constructionused on the project was designed and manufactured byMiller. This includes the latest in engine-driven weldingtechnology, weld fume extraction equipment and weldingsafety gear. The companies also worked together to converttraditional processes over to new methods of improvingweld quality, productivity and safety, such as using Flux-Cored welding and induction heating technology in struc-tural steel applications.“Welding isn’t often the first thing people think of when
they think of the construction industry,” said Weller, “but itis one of the most critical elements of a heavy structural joblike this and provides us with the perfect opportunity toshowcase these technologies — and to do so on a local stagewith other Wisconsin-based companies. The Green BayPackers, Miller and Miron Construction all represent coreWisconsin values of hard work and integrity, and we thinkit’s a winning combination both on the field and off.” “Many of us dreamed of playing on this field as kids, and
having the ability to help extend this stadium’s legacy is, inmany ways, the fulfillment of that dream,” said David G.Voss, Jr., president and CEO of Miron Construction. “Andwe’re proud to do so in partnership with other greatWisconsin companies, showcasing the true strength of theregion’s construction and fabrication industries.”

agement via the Cat electronic standardizedprogrammable (ESP) pump, which smooth-ly transitions between the hydraulic hybridpower sources, engine, and accumulator. 2) Optimize performance using restriction
management via the patented Cat adaptivecontrol system (ACS) valve, which intelli-gently manages restrictions and flows toseamlessly control machine motion with noloss of power, and to ensure operators expe-rience no difference in control, hydraulicpower or lift capability. 3) Reuse energy via the hydraulic hybrid
swing system, which captures the excava-tor’s upper structure swing brake energy inaccumulators, and then releases the energyduring swing acceleration.Customers can expect the 336E H to use
up to 25 percent less fuel compared to a stan-dard 336E, and up to 33 percent less fuel
than the 330/336D, said Caterpillar. All threeof the technology building blocks, conserve,optimize and reuse, are integrated together tomaximize fuel savings in a variety of appli-cations. Press demoed the 336E H, not on a prov-
ing ground, but as a 3D hologram. Testingand building Cat products includes creating3D machines and environments, as well as asuite of other productivity-enhancing tech-nologies. The hologram is displayed in aroom, called “The Cave.” The 3D glasseseven monitor head movement, and adjust theimage accordingly.
Cat c9.3 AcertCaterpillar also introduced the next gener-
ation of the Cat C9.3 Acert industrial engine,which is designed to meet U.S. EPA Tier IVFinal/EU Stage IV emission standards. Thenew engine is a six-cylinder, 9.3 L platformthat produces power density with ratingsfrom 300-400 hp (224-298kW). It isequipped with a fully-integrated clean emis-sion module (CEM), which includes a dieseloxidation catalyst (DOC), diesel particulatefilter (DPF), and selective catalytic reduction(SCR) technology. “Utilizing a Cat common rail fuel system
and new aftertreatment technology, the Tier
IV Final/EU Stage IV C9.3 Acert improvesfuel consumption by up to four percent com-pared to the current Tier IV Interim/StageIIIB model,” said Mike Reinhart, industrialpower systems marketing manager.The Clean Emission Module simplifies
OEM aftertreatment installation with a flex-ible design that allows mounting in horizon-
tal or vertical configurations. This allowsCat’s existing customers to easily transitionfrom Tier IV Interim/Stage IIIB to Tier IVFinal/Stage IV.
