ROLAND MACHINERY, KOMATSU TEAM UP TO INTRODUCE IMC 2.0

By Katherine Petrik

CEG EDITORIAL ASSISTANT

Roland Machinery invited customers to an information session of the latest technology available on Komatsu machines. The workshop took place March 2 at the Operators Training Center of ASIP-Local 150 in Wilmington, Ill. Representatives of Komatsu and Roland Machinery were on hand to demonstrate how Komatsu’s intelligent Machine Control 2.0 (iMC 2.0) works. Equipment available for demonstration were a PC290LCi excavator, a D39PXi dozer and a D61PXi dozer, all with iMC 2.0.

“We want to spend time with operators, go through the basics of iMC 2.0 and then start to introduce them to what we call Smart Construction, which includes some of the tools that can be added to intelligent Machine Control 2.0 to make it more cost-efficient and more productive," said Jenkins Davis of Komatsu North America. “We also want to show how to use the machines.”

As part of Komatsu’s Smart Construction suite, iMC 2.0 offers new features for productivityenhancing automation. iMC 2.0 is available on the company’s mid- to large-size excavators. According to Komatsu, iMC 2.0 is an added tool that helps minimize over-excavation and allows operators to dig straight to grade quickly and accurately.

On dozers, iMC 2.0 measures the terrain it tracks over and uses the data to plan the next pass. The steering control automatically tilts the blade, maintaining straight travel, even over rough terrain. It also allows operators to press a button to spread fill material automatically, according to the company.

“This is really a workshop dedicated to educating contractors on the concept of iMC 2.0,” said Davis. “The technology is new and requires a better understanding of how it works and how it operates. We’ll give a classroom session for a couple of hours and then take them out in the field and let them operate the machines so they can really experience it firsthand.”

Reuben Cuevas of Lake County Grading attended the event to learn more about the machines and the iMC 2.0 system.

“I’m interested in looking at the Komatsu excavator today with its GPS setup," he said. “Based on what we’ve seen so far, it looks interesting. It looks like it improves efficiency.”

Cuevas’ opinion was reinforced after trying the machine.

Operator Jesiah Lee of C. Lee Construction Services in Gary, Ind., goes over some instructions with Roland Machinery’s Zac Lucas, technology solutions expert.

Jenkins Davis of Komatsu North America addresses customers at the Roland Machinery workshop on iMC 2.0.

“It was very intuitive. It would not let me over dig and was very customizable as far as the different layers of material you want to put down and slopes. I’m not an operator, but it made me look like I was one,” he said. “I can see this making our experienced operators as well as our operators with not as much experience a lot more efficient, accurate and safer. I liked the product.”

Kenn Ziese of Ziese and Sons Excavating in Crown Point, Ind., came to the workshop to test out more machines. He recently purchased D61PXi dozer with iMC 2.0.

“They’re really nice machines,” he said. “I can see the advantages of the intelligent Machine Control 2.0 and I don’t have to climb up on the blade every day. It’s a nice system. I’m looking forward to using it more and Roland Machinery Company is great to deal with.”

“I was glad of the turnout today,” said Zac Lucas, technology solutions expert of Roland Machinery. “We wanted to educate our customers on what the new iMC 2.0 technology is with Komatsu. We wanted to highlight our excavators and show the different applications such as pulling slopes of a pond, digging footings, or underground work. I think a lot of guys had their eyes open to that today.”

Jesiah Lee of C. Lee Construction Services in Gary, Ind., agreed with Lucas after trying the PC290LCi excavator.

“This is easily one of the coolest machines I’ve ever run; the coolest thing I’ve ever sat in," said Lee. “It’s smooth. It’s cool. It’s consistent. I want them — I want all of them. I love Roland Machinery Company.” About Roland

“A safe and quality water system is a vital part of Wichita's infrastructure, which serves up to 550,000 people across Wichita and surrounding communities,” said Bill Perkins, city of Wichita project manager. “Our current water treatment facility is 80 years old and needs replacement. The project also represents the final investment in diversifying the city’s water supply, providing flexibility to treat water from surface water, groundwater and aquifer storage and recovery sources, making the city more resilient to drought conditions.”

Described as a game changer, the new Wichita Northwest Water Facility will serve residents across Wichita and surrounding communities, including Andover, Bel Aire, Benton, Derby, Kechi, Park City, Rose Hill, Valley Center, as well as some rural water districts in both Sedgwick and Butler counties. The city received a federal loan to begin construction, with rate payers reportedly saving roughly $97 million in costs.

“Like any aging asset, it requires a high level of maintenance and attention,” said Perkins. “That said, a plan is in place to ensure reliable delivery of high-quality finished water to all our customers until the new plant comes online in 2024.”

While the project totals $556.8 million, the design and construction of the facility is $500.2M, $14 million under the city’s budget for this portion of the project. Officials entered into a contract with Wichita Water Partners, a joint venture of Alberici and Burns & McDonnell, to complete the first phase of the project, which included developing a 30 percent project design, finalizing the maximum price and preparing loan applications.

The second phase included design completion and two phases of construction. The first phase of work began in January 2020 with an early work package that included site clearing and dirt work. The final phase commenced in November 2020.

A ceremonial groundbreaking for the new facility took place in October 2020. Shovels broke ground at 21st Street and Hoover, the plant’s future home. Representatives of the city of Wichita, city of Derby, the Alberici/Burns & McDonnell JV Team, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency were among those who turned out for the event.

“A project this size and this critical would not be possible without our partners,” said Perkins. “We are so thankful to be working with such an outstanding team.”

Perkins noted the plant will draw from a diverse portfolio of raw water sources and rights that includes surface water, native groundwater and aquifer recharge credits received from the city’s Aquifer Storage and Recovery Project.

Early on, the city engaged Garver Engineering as an owner's representative. Garver is responsible for project oversight, which includes review of value engineering alternatives, cost and schedule reviews, design reviews and negotiation of certain aspects of the guaranteed maximum price and contract.

Perkins said the new plant will be the utility’s keystone in terms of drought protection.

“The plant’s unique combination of redundancy and flexibility will reduce the amount of investment that will be required to achieve the city’s drought protection goal of having the capability to sustain a one percent, ‘Dust Bowl type’ drought. With the new water treatment facility, the city expects to achieve this level of drought protection by the end of the current decade.”

The Wichita Northwest Water Facility is being built on an old sand pit quarry site.

According to Perkins, “It is very easy to dig; however, the size of the excavations become enormous due to the layback requirements. Once adjacent facilities begin construction, the excavations of the structures will begin to interfere with one another, and significant precautions will need to be taken to make sure that no structures are undermined. This same concern will permeate throughout the site as we begin to install an enormous number of underground utilities and process piping.”

The most complex structure on the project site is the filter building, which was the first to break ground. The chlorine contact basin (CCB), solids contact clarifiers (SCC) and a temporary construction warehouse also are under construction.

The team has dealt with ground bearing capacity issues on the major structures constructed.

“Once we complete the excavations and compact the subgrade, we thoroughly test the subgrade bearing capacity and, unfortunately, we’re not getting the capacities we need,” said Perkins. “This sand pit has its benefits, though, including an endless supply of well-graded sand. To improve the bearing capacity, all we needed to do was dig down a little deeper and start building our way back up with cement stabilization. Within a week, we were back on track.”

Tasks already completed include site clearing and excavation; SWPPP BMPs installed; construction roads and laydown areas developed; installation of tower cranes; a 15KV temporary power

The project includes 450,000 cu. yds. of earthwork, excavation and backfill.
