Motor grader

Caterpillar

Motor grader for low- to medium-duty applications

Designed for low- to medium-duty applications, the Cat 120 GC motor grader delivers reliable, low-cost operation in a range of applications that include government and municipal work, road maintenance, and finish grading. Its powershift transmission and balanced machine design ensure appropriate drawbar power reaches the ground from the fuel-efficient Cat C4.4 engine. Adapting engine power and torque to application demands, the 120 GC features electronic throttle control to improve grading productivity. With precisely matched engine power ranges for the standard rear-wheel drive and optional all-wheel drive, standard Eco mode operation increases fuel economy up to five percent. The hydraulic cooling fan, with optional reversing fan for high debris applications, only runs when necessary to further reduce fuel consumption. The 120 GC is available with 3.0-, 3.7-, and 4.3-m (10-, 12-, and 14-foot) moldboard options.

SmartRock sensor

Giatec

SmartRock sensor with increased data collection distance

Giatec’s SmartRock and SmartHub concrete monitoring products now have long-range connectivity capabilities. Users can now collect concrete data directly with a wireless signal range improved from 60 feet (18 m) to 1,000 feet (300 m), a 16-fold increase, and access it anywhere in real-time on the Giatec 360 dashboard. SmartHub automatically collects concrete data recorded by SmartRock sensors and uploads it to the Giatec 360 cloud via LTE connection where it is synced to mobile devices with the SmartRock app. The Giatec 360 platform sends smart notifications to users’ mobile devices, letting them know when their concrete has reached specified temperature or strength thresholds.
