Honolulu Airport Receives $2.7B Makeover, New Name

By Lori Tobias CEG CORRESPONDENT

Hawaii’s largest and most active airport was recently given a new name — an apt change, perhaps, to go along with the $2.7 billion modernization project that also will undoubtedly give it a new look.

The former Honolulu International Airport was rechristened earlier this year the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport as construction work continues on several major projects throughout the terminal.

The project, as described on a website dedicated to the Hawaii

Airports Modernization Program, “… consists of a multi-year effort to transform HNL into a distinctive, functional airport, worthy of a first-class visitor destination and to meet the growing needs of residents and visitors alike.”

The major components include a new concourse, terminal and car rental facility.”

“The challenge is we are landlocked,” said Ford Fuchigami, director of transportation for the Hawaii Department of Transportation. “There is no room to do expansion. Everything needs to be sequenced and needs to be see AIRPORT page 26

Mecalac Ramps Up Presence in U.S. Market When France-based construction equipment manufacturer Mecalac made its first impression in the United States market in mid-2016, it was through Lorusso Heavy Equipment, based in Walpole, Mass.

This allowed Mecalac to introduce its unique equipment line to

the New England construction market with the assistance of Lorusso, which also was responsible for helping set up a nationwide distribution network for the manufacturer.

A lot has happened since then.

In December 2016, Mecalac see MECALAC page 20

Black Butte Copper Project Achieves Major Milestone Tintina Resources Inc. announces that it has received notification from the Montana Department of Environmental Quality that the Black Butte Copper Mine Operating Permit is now considered to be complete and compliant in accordance with all state rules and regulations relating to the operating plan of its proposed underground copper mine in Meagher County, Mont.

The permitting process now moves to the development of a comprehensive environmental impact study (EIS). The selection of an independent and third party EIS contractor and issuance of a draft mine operating permit are in the final stages and the EIS is expected to commence within the next 30 days.

The EIS process, scheduled to take approximately twelve months, will include public input through a public comment process and will be a comprehensive analysis of project alternatives as required under the Montana Environmental Policy Act. In addition, the company is required to obtain other state operating permits including a Montana Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit, an Air Quality permit and a Public Water Supply permit. The company also will complete a Hard Rock Mining Impact Plan as required by Montana statute. A Federal Clean Water Act 404 permit also is currently in process. Upon completion, the company’s goal is that the EIS will result in a Final Record of Decision allowing construction and development of this underground mine on private ranch land in Meagher County.

A summary of the MOP can be found on our website blackbuttecopper.com along with a 3D animation of the planned project showing what the site will look like before

and during mining operations as well as after reclamation.

The proposed underground mine, located 15 mi. north of White Sulphur Springs, is designed to provide economic opportunity to central Montana while fully protecting the Smith River Watershed: • All designed openings and entry points to the underground mine are located well above the water table.

• Surface irrigation rights have been leased for instream flow to ensure there is no change to the water levels in Sheep Creek.

• A reverse osmosis water treatment plant will treat water on site from construction through reclamation, and will return clean water back to the same ground water system through a buried infiltration system. The water treatment plant will remain active as long as needed to ensure all water involved in the operation meets Montana’s strict non-degradation water standards through reclamation and closure.

• The company’s mining plan fills all underground mined areas in the copper deposit with paste backfill ensuring that only a small percentage of the underground mine is open at any given time and that no large open spaces are left underground.

• Mill tailings that are not returned underground (approx.

55%) have cement added to them and will be placed in a double-lined facility. This innovative use of existing mine technology eliminates windblown dust and prevents acid runoff. Any un-milled rock brought to surface will be stored here. During reclamation, the cemented tailings facility will be sealed with another liner, covered with several feet of cover and original top soil and returned to grazing.

• The company’s reclamation plan returns the entire site to agricultural and cattle grazing with no treatment of water in perpetuity necessary.

John Shanahan, CEO stated, “This has been a long and involved process, and we now can clearly demonstrate that the development and operation of this state-of-the-art project meets and exceeds all state rules and regulations. Our objective is very clear; to responsibly develop this project and provide both economic opportunity and complete protection of the environment. The ongoing support and vision of our major shareholder, Sandfire Resources, along with the unwavering support of White Sulphur Springs and surrounding communities has made this all possible. We also gratefully thank the Montana DEQ for their thorough and exacting review.”

Jerry Zieg, VP of Exploration closed by stating, “This is a real milestone for Tintina, the Black Butte Copper Project, and the residents of Meagher County and surrounding counties. Everyone has worked diligently for years, both managing and carrying out extensive supporting studies, and communicating their constant and strong support for the project.

The Tintina team, both staff and third-party contractors, are leading the world in showing how to build a mine which will exceed regulations at all levels in true comprehensive environmental protection while providing a much-needed economic boon to the state of Montana. All of us can be very proud of this accomplishment.”

Historic San Juan River Bridge to Be Decommissioned SHIPROCK, NM (AP) An historic bridge that spans the San Juan River in northwestern New Mexico is slated to be decommissioned now that it has been deemed structurally deficient.

The New Mexico Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration held a meeting on Sept. 27 to update community members on the status of the U.S. 64 San Juan Bridge Crossing Project.

Eric Froberg, project manager for the engineering firm T.Y. Lin International Group, said the historic westbound bridge is scheduled to be decommissioned and possibly be used as a bridge for bicycle and pedestrian traffic, The Farmington Daily Times reported.

Built in 1936, the San Juan River Bridge has been labeled a historic highway bridge and is on the National Register of Historic Places, according to the National Park Service.

A steel-beam bridge was built in 1975 south of the historical bridge to handle eastbound traffic. The

Built in 1936, the San Juan River Bridge has been labeled a historic highway bridge and is on the National Register of Historic Places, according to the National Park Service.

average lifespan of a bridge is about 75 years, Froberg said.

About 14,000 vehicles cross the bridges each day, he said.

The project is still in the early phases of design, and holding the meeting was a way to get public

input on the proposals. “We’re making sure what we put in fits in the community,” Froberg said during the meeting.

Two of the proposed designs call for constructing a new fourlane bridge to the north or south of

the historic bridge. Those bridges would handle eastbound and westbound traffic.

Another option calls for expanding the existing south bridge from two lanes to four lanes of traffic to handle traffic running both ways.

Three options also were proposed to renovate the San Francisco Peak Boulevard and Hesperus Peak Boulevard intersections, including building a roundabout at both intersections and building more turn lanes.

One woman said she was concerned about the proposed roundabout option for the intersections.

She believes the amount and type of vehicle traffic would make it unsafe.

Froberg said he believes construction could start in spring 2021 at the earliest, but added that date could change.

The construction cost for a new bridge could start between $15 million and $20 million, and may increase, he said. The cost of the project could vary greatly, depending on the alignment of the bridge, the type of bridge that is built and the type of intersection improvements that are selected, Froberg said.

Contractors Have Hard Time Finding Qualified Craft Workers Seventy percent of construction firms report they are having a hard time filling hourly craft positions that represent the bulk of the construction workforce, according to the results of an industry-wide survey released by Autodesk and the Associated General Contractors of America.

Association officials said that many firms are changing the way they operate, recruit and compensate, but cautioned that chronic labor shortages could have significant economic impacts absent greater investments in career and technical education.

“In the short-term, fewer firms will be able to bid on construction projects if they are concerned they will not have enough workers to meet demand,” said Stephen Sandherr, chief executive officer of the Associated General Contractors. “Over the long-term, either construction firms will find a way to do more with fewer workers or public officials will take steps to encourage more people to pursue careers in construction.”

Of the more than 1,600 survey respondents, 70 percent said they are having difficulty filling hourly craft positions, Sandherr noted. Craft worker shortages are the most severe in the West, where 75 percent of contractors are having a hard time filling those

positions, followed by the “The ongoing labor Midwest where 72 percent drought continues to put are having a hard time find- “In the short-term, fewer firms will be pressure on the already ing craft workers, 70 perhigh-risk, low-margin concent in the South and 63 able to bid on construction projects if struction industry,” said percent in the Northeast.

Midwest Energy Association’s National Nevada AGC, NBA Gas Rodeo Announces 2017 Winners Host 2nd Annual Career Day in Reno The 2017 National Gas Rodeo, held at the Jefferson County Fairgrounds in Denver, Colo., and sponsored by Case Construction Equipment, announced the winners for the two- and four-person team events.

Organized by the Midwest Energy Association, the National Gas Rodeo draws teams from utility companies across the United States, and has grown to include 54 teams (29 two-person teams and 25 four-person teams) and more than 320 spectators attending the event.

The two- and four-person teams compete in various skill tests focused on safe, time-efficient performance using construction equipment and other tools of the trade.

The 2017 overall Rodeo champion in the two-person team category was Lil’ Gas House Gang (Steve Bouse and Barry Hicks) from Laclede Gas Company in Spire-Laclede, Mo. This is the Laclede Gas House Gang’s third back-to-back win — the first two being in the four-person category.

The four-person team winner for 2017 was Intense Ignition (Korey Ross, Dylan Middleton, Jeff Smith and Justin Wald) from Missouri Gas Energy of Kansas City, Mo. “Case has sponsored the National Gas Rodeo for many years, and along with Titan Equipment we have supplied all of the heavy equipment that they use for the qualifying and relay events,” said Ed Brenton, brand marketing manager, Case Construction Equipment.

“This is an important event to us, and we are

happy to see all the hard-working men and women of the gas industry out here with their families and friends, competing against one another and having a good time.”

Qualifying events include a timed meter set, service installation, pipe cut and wild card event, which is different each year. The final relay is a sequence of six events: a truck and trailer back up, an egg pickup with a backhoe bucket, pipe squeeze, a mini-excavator event, regulator bypass and water cooler. The team with the best overall relay time wins.

The Intense Ignition team — Korey Ross, Dylan Middleton, Jeff Smith, Justin Wald and James Johnson (alternate) — from Missouri Gas Energy of Kansas City, Mo., prevailed in the 2017 National Gas Rodeo.

Organized by the Midwest Energy Association, the National Gas Rodeo draws teams from utility companies across the United States.

The final relay is a sequence of six events: a truck and trailer back up, an egg pickup with a backhoe bucket, pipe squeeze, a mini-excavator event, regulator bypass and water cooler. The team with the best overall relay time wins.

More than 750 middle and high school students from around the region gathered to kick off Careers in Construction Month at the 2nd annual Northern Nevada Construction Career Day at the Reno-Sparks Convention Center Sept. 28.

Gov. Sandoval has issued a proclamation declaring October as Careers in Construction Month in Nevada, citing construction as the “fastest growing industry in the Silver State in terms of percentage of growth and stands as Nevada’s sixth largest sector in total employment with more than 85,700 jobs.”

Qualifying events include a timed meter set, service installation, pipe cut and wild card event, which is different each year.

Construction Career Day featured more than 50 exhibitors in all facets of the construction industry presenting hands-on, interactive displays to educate students and counselors about the unlimited potential of construction-related careers.

BuildNV.org and Construction Career Day is a collaborative industry effort between Nevada Builders Alliance, The Nevada Chapter of the Associated General Contractors, and the Northern Nevada Apprenticeship Coordinators Association. BuildNV has partnered with the Washoe County School District and Signature Academies and Career and Technical Education to present Construction Career Day. “We’re looking to re-define success in education,” Aaron West, chief executive officer of Nevada Builders Alliance, said. “[Due] to in-house on-the-job-training from employers and apprenticeships available through the trade associations, students have options other than university attendance in which to find careers with high pay and benefits. Many of these programs put students to work earning money while they are going to school.”

West said the state faces a shortfall of thousands of construction workers and said Construction Career Day is about young people being exposed to the wide variety of jobs leading to lucrative careers in construction.

“It’s especially important to reach middle school students as they head into high school and can begin to select Career and Technical Education classes, which give them a head start,” he said. “High school students in CTE programs gain employable skills and nationally recognized certifications that qualify them for placement in programs where they can earn living wages while learning on the job.”

Southern Nevada’s Construction Career Day takes place in late October.

ADOT&PF Ends Seasonal Maintenance in October The Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities (ADOT&PF) will end seasonal maintenance, including snow and ice removal, on the Denali Highway, Taylor Highway, McCarthy Road, Tofty/Tanana Road and the Eureka/Rampart Road, in October.

ADOT&PF does not maintain these highways through the winter. The department encourages drivers to remember that travel on a non-maintained highway during the winter is extremely risky.

Denali Highway: Runs from the Cantwell junction on the Parks Highway to the Paxson Lodge on the Richardson Highway. Maintenance ends Oct. 15.

Crews will begin opening the 135-mi.

Denali Highway in late April. Eight personnel will work about three weeks to open the road from both sides; the road is usually open by May 15.

Taylor Highway: Runs from the Tetlin Junction on the Alaska Highway to Eagle. Maintenance ends Oct. 15 and will resume in early April. In April, a five-person maintenance crew will begin plowing snow and ice to re-open the 160-mi. road over about a four-week McCarthy Road.

period. The border crossing on the Top of The World Highway closed earlier this fall and will remain closed until next May. McCarthy Road: Runs from the Edgerton Highway in Chitina to McCarthy. Regular maintenance ends Oct. 15 and will resume in the spring.

The McCarthy Road may be plowed periodically through the winter so crews can clear the McCarthy runway.

Tofty/Tanana Road: Runs from Manley to the banks of the Yukon River near Tanana. Maintenance ended Oct. 1.

The road will be opened in early spring in coordination with the city of Tanana’s Yukon ice road construction efforts, enabling freight to be transported across the river to Tanana.

Eureka/Rampart Road: Runs from the Elliott Highway to Rampart.

Maintenance ended Oct. 1. The road will be opened in early spring in coordination with the city of Rampart, enabling freight to be transported to Rampart while the road is still frozen.

The new MT9 microtrencher attachment, designed to improve productivity and to reduce the cost-per-foot on small fiber job sites, is developed to work in tandem with the Ditch Witch line of miniskid steers.

Ditch Witch MT9 Cuts Costs, Improves ROI The Ditch Witch organization, a Charles Machine Works Company, introduced the MT9 microtrencher attachment, designed to improve productivity and to reduce the cost-per-foot on small fiber job sites.

Developed to work in tandem with the Ditch Witch line of mini-skid steers, the system is an ideal solution for tight and confined residential areas, such as street crossings, according to the manufacturer.

To reduce ground disruption, the MT9 creates clean, shallow trenches up to 9 in. (22.8 cm) deep and 0.375 to 1.5 in. (.9 to 3.8 cm) wide. A blade plunge provides infinite variable depth control while the machine is in operation. Additionally, the microtrencher works with the FX65 vacuum excavator to further create a clean trench in one pass by effectively removing spoils.

“Traditional fiber-installation methods lack the speed and efficiency to be cost-effective for contractors in many residential areas,” said Steve Seabolt, Ditch Witch product manager, heavy duty tractors. “Our new MT9 minimizes the space required to operate, avoiding hurdles found in confined, tight and urban job sites.

Designed specifically for street crossings, an ability to push or pull the microtrencher keeps the saw in the ground for more efficient and accurate cuts. By eliminating the need to realign during a cut, operators are able to complete the cut faster and produce a better-looking finish.

The MT9 works with the Ditch Witch PDC Fiberblade that contains diamond embedded carbide. The durable, maintenance-free design of the Fiberblade is proven to last up to 20 times longer than standard blades, enhancing jobsite performance and improving ROI.

Ditch Witch, Utilicor Team Up to Advance Keyhole Technology Public works managers across the nation have welcomed the use of keyhole coring: a less-costly, safer and less-disruptive approach to underground roadway and sidewalk utility repairs than traditional, large excavation techniques. Today, Ditch Witch, a Charles Machine Works Company, announced its partnership with Utilicor Technologies Inc. to bring the benefits of advanced keyhole technology and reinstatement to contractors, municipalities and utilities globally.

Utility contractors need not bring heavy and physically demanding equipment like jackhammers and backhoes for every utility maintenance project that requires asphalt or concrete repairs. Instead, they can operate a nimble, construction-grade Ditch Witch mini-skid steer fitted with the new Utilicor MTC100 coring attachment to perform repairs, without rerouting traffic or exposing large areas of open excavation.

“Our partnership with coring technology leader, Utilicor, gives our organization a strong point of entry into the coring market,” said Randy Rupp, Ditch Witch vice president of product strategy. “The new MTC100 coring attachment will complement our portfolio of mini-skid steers and vacuum excavation equipment for work under paved surfaces, and it gives cities and utilities a quick, money-saving advantage.”

“Utilicor is pleased to partner with the industry-leading Ditch Witch organization, allowing us to expand the reach of our coring and reinstatement technology through their highly-respected, global Ditch Witch dealer network,” said Marshall Pollock, president and CEO, Utilicor Technologies

Inc. “Both of our companies have spent years developing customer confidence in our brands, and we’re fully committed to providing exceptional support and service to our customers. This agreement reaffirms that commitment.”

The MTC100 was developed in partnership with Utilicor as the first product entry into the coring market for the Ditch Witch organization. Designed to work exclusively with the SK-line of mini-skid steer units (the SK800, SK1050 and SK1550), the MTC100

Utilicor keyhole coring and reinstatement products offer solution to simplify utility repairs, saving contractors and municipalities time, money and disruption.

can quickly and accurately cut up to an 18in. (45.7 cm) diameter hole and 22-in. (55.8 cm) depth, minimizing surface disruption.

Vacuum systems are then used to excavate down to the utility for maintenance that can be performed from the road surface using special long-handled tools.

Once the underground work has been completed, the original core is bonded back into the pavement as a permanent pavement repair for minimal surface disruption — no patching or repaving required.

Coring techniques offer significant cost and time savings. Today, keyhole coring technologies are approximately 50 percent less costly than traditional excavation repairs and disposal removal. And, roads can be reopened to traffic within 30 minutes of repair completion.

“It comes down to using smaller, more precise tools and a more localized approach,” said Rupp. “The result is less disruption and faster repair.”

In addition to the MTC100 coring attachment, Utilicor provides Utilibond reinstatement material. Capable of supporting up to 50,000 lbs. (22,680 kg) in just 30 minutes, this specially engineered pavement-bonding compound, results in a permanent pavement repair that reduces public inconvenience, requires no additional paving materials and is field-proven to be effective for more than 10 years, according to the company.

Engcon Improves Automatic Coupling for Hydraulic Tools

Engcon, a 26-year-old $90 million Swedish firm, currently is updating its fully hydraulic EC-Oil solution, which makes the safe automatic connection of hydraulic tools possible from the operator’s seat. The latest EC-Oil is a newly developed blade-type electrical connector with increased contact surfaces. It’s been moved to the top of the hitch to protect it better from oil and dirt.

EC-Oil’s new electrical connector has 12 sturdy pins (6 + 6) that make it even more durable than its predecessor.

What’s more, the improved EC-Oil was rigorously tested during the winter of 2016-2017 with approximately 100,000 couplings in varied environments including dirt, saltwater and snow. The tests have made sure the improved EC-Oil can handle really tough working environments, according to the manufacturer.

“The test results have been nothing but positive,” said John Lundqvist, test manager at Engcon’s R&D department in Strömsund, Sweden.

Unique Wedge Shape Allows Maximum Contact The pins in the connector are wedge-shaped and, when connected, are inserted about .8 in. (20 mm) into the springloaded female half. This provides a cleaning effect with maximum contact in every position, which reduces the risk of the machine losing electrical contact with the tool, according to the manufacturer.

“We also want to emphasize just how robust EC-Oil hydraulic connections are,” said Lundqvist, explaining that each movable part of the connector (female + male) has an O-ring seal that is easy to access, making maintenance simple. It’s also the only O-ring on EC-Oil; the connectors are instead sealed through their smart conical shape.

“The simple, robust design also makes EC-Oil the market’s best value-for-money solution for fully hydraulic couplers,” added John Lundqvist.

Deliveries of the Improved EC-Oil Begin in June 2017 The improved EC-Oil will be built into Engcon’s Q-Safe quick coupler in the sizes QS45, QS50, QS60, QS70 and QS80 for excavators from 6.6 to 36 ton (6 to 33 t). The QS60 will be first with initial deliveries anticipated for the middle of June 2017; the other sizes will be introduced throughout the summer and autumn of 2017.

Mecalac’s U.S. Distribution Network Continues to Grow

The recent event in France was the first time that Mecalac’s dealer network saw the Terex TLB890 tractor loader backhoe in its Mecalac form.

MECALAC from page 1

acquired the Terex Group’s production plant for side dumpers, backhoe loaders and compactors in Coventry, Great Britain. Then, while initially launching in the New England market with its MCR Series (what Mecalac dubs a “crawler skid excavator”), the company recently unveiled its new MWR Series at ConExpo 2017, an interesting and highly productive combination of a wheel and crawler excavator.

Mecalac’s distribution network has grown, too, outside of the six-state New England region, with dealers now located in Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia.

Who (and What) Is Mecalac?

“Anticipating technological developments and changes to working practices is part of our DNA,” said Henri Marchetta, chairman, who founded the Mecalac Group in 1974. “Talking to our customers, drivers, site managers, fleet managers and mechanics helps us to understand people’s needs today and their expectations for the future.

That’s how we develop our technologies and produce our innovations.”

The MCR Series It started in the United States with the MCR Series, which combines the features of a skid steer loader, a compact excavator and a telehandler and integrates them with a unique, versatile

by Mecalac (boom with integrated offset, cylinder coupling, CONNECT quick coupler, central control selector, and speed control function).

The MWR boasts an offset articulated arm (which fits into the machine’s profile perfectly) and forms a positive mass and a natural counterweight, thus optimizing its lifting power and ensuring greater freedom to handle and turn with heavy loads.

The new MWRs transform worksite logistics due to its

incredible stability in any position and on any terrain.

Whatever the conditions, the machines stay balanced both when travelling in transfer operations between sites, as well as during work phases. This provides the machine with 360degree lifting performance.

The cab is 20 percent lower when compared with other similar products on the market and entering and exiting the vehicle requires much less effort; it is further eased by the addition of a step that has been perfectly incorporated into the machine’s design.

The Mecalac all-terrain skid excavator can mount a skid steer bucket, perform all of the functions of a skid steer/track loader and lift and load materials to a pile or truck as high as 16 ft. (5 m), due to Mecalac’s versatile boom with integrated high reach offset.

The MWR’s fuel tank is extremely easy to access because it is located in the undercarriage, level with the step that leads straight to the cab.

Without needing to move, the machine is always ideally positioned with high precision in cramped or sensitive construction sites. Even when behind an obstacle, such as a nearby wall running parallel to the vehicle, it can still dig downwards and lift loads up to half its weight to a height of approximately 10 ft. with an exceptional economy of movesee MECALAC page 44

The MCR can fully rotate while carrying a load up to 40 percent of its own weight.

CEG Exclusive: Tour of Mecalac’s French Factory as It

E

The Mecalac factory is located in the French Alps in the beautiful and historic city of Annecy, France.

At Mecalac’s event, members of the press and dealers from around the world were given their first opportunity to view the Mecalac MRW (MWR) series wheel loaders.

arlier this year, France-based manufacturer Mecalac held a dealer meeting and press event to introduce to its more than 200 dealers worldwide the new MRW (MWR) series compact wheeled excavator.

The press conference and dealer introduction was held at the Arcadium concert and meeting hall facility in Annecy, France. Annecy also is home to Mecalac’s world headquarters.

There, Construction Equipment Guide was given an exclusive opportunity to tour the Mecalac factory and experience first-hand the company’s manufacturing processes, elaborate parts support and distribution network, and the rigorous testing process that each machine is put through before delivery.

In addition to introducing the MWR series excavators (a hybrid compact excavator that combines the advantages of a crawler excavator and wheeled excavator that is specifically designed for the urban market), Mecalac also had on display its full line of compact construction equipment, including its new tractor loader backhoes, side-dump trucks and doubledrum asphalt rollers.

Following the event, Mecalac hosted a reception at the Plage De L’Imperial — an elegant facility located on the shore of Lake Annecy offering a breathtaking view of the French Alps. While there, Mecalac dealers and the press were provided with an oppor-

Every Mecalac machine has all features and aspects of its structure personally inspected at the end of the assembly process. From there, each machine is tested for four hours to check for any manufacturing flaws. According to A.J. Lorusso of Lorusso Heavy Equipment in Mass., “When we deliver a new machine, some customers are thrown off by the fact that every machine has at least four hours on it.”

Skilled Mecalac technicians install the boom on a Mecalac model 12MTX.

Frederic LaBorde of Mecalac USA shows the actual order form created by the dealer and the customer. This form provides specifics of exactly how each machine will be configured; this form stays with the machine and is referenced throughout the entire assembly process.

Frederic LaBorde, business manager, Mecalac USA, points out this turret for a Mecalac model 12MTX. Upon the completion of the manufacturing of this turret, it was dedicated to the assembly of a specific machine. This process allows Mecalac to identify any problems in its manufacturing process in the event of a machine failure once it is put into the field.

Mecalac’s advanced manufacturing capabilities and engineering staff are often called upon to create unique applications for their machines, such as this Mecalac excavator equipped for working on Europe’s extensive rail system.

The Mecalac employees have an obvious enthusiasm for what they do. Mecalac’s factory is extremely clean and well organized. Employees presented themselves professionally and were willing to take whatever time necessary to assure that the CEG staff and other guests were given a thorough factory tour experience.

A.J. Lorusso, the first U.S. dealer of the Mecalac product, received a warm welcome at the reception following the introduction of the MRW (MWR) series wheeled excavators.

The environmentally safe Mecalac paint area.

With a touch of French elegance, a quartet of stringed instruments provided background music at the reception.

As this rack containing a boom assembly leaves the paint area, it is immediately identified with exactly what carrier it will be installed on.

Mecalac has invested in one of the most advanced robotic parts inventory and storage systems, which assists the company in maintaining a very high percentage of next day parts fulfillment.

Every machine on the Mecalac assembly line is customized for the needs of each end-user. In Europe, it is the practice that every machine is custom-ordered for each customer. Unlike the U.S. market, where options are typically bundled together, at Mecalac customers receive a list of all options and features available and select each one that meets their needs. This photo shows a cylinder set entering the production line. It has already been determined what machine these cylinders will be put on, as is the case with every part that enters the line.

The Plage De L’Imperial was a spectacular venue for Mecalac’s reception.

Sennebogen 718 Earns Praise From Tree Service Company When it comes to tree service equipment, Dan Mayer says he feels like he has seen everything there is.

“It is hard to impress me,” he said.

As a self-described YouTube enthusiast, Mayer is constantly on the look out for machinery anywhere in the world that can benefit his busy Mayer Tree Service operation in the Boston area. When a trip to a job site in Switzerland brought him face-to-face with a mobile Sennebogen 718 material handler equipped with a saw head, he knew that this is what he had been looking for.

“I saw what the machine did over there for a tree company of similar size to our company here in the U.S.,” said Mayer, “and that’s what made me pull the trigger. We actually brought the first one into North America.”

And now? Working in tandem with the self-powered Albach Diamant 2000 mobile chipper, the Sennebogen 718 “blows me away every day,” Mayer said.

“The combination is just deadly. It wouldn’t be the same without the Sennebogen. This has been a game changer with just how many trees the Sennebogen takes down, precuts and stacks safely and efficiently. With everything laid out just so, the Albach can come in behind and process them in a fraction of the time.”

He estimates the two pieces together outpace his local competition by a 10:1 clip, “but it’s probably actually greater than that, because there is no operator fatigue. With this purpose-built equipment, you’re just not beating up on your people.”

Always Seeking a Better Way Taking a bold step in a normally modest and traditional industry is nothing new for Mayer, who started his Boston North tree pruning and tree removal business in 1995.

With the constant search to stay ahead, “to reinvent myself again,” Mayer said he could not have asked for a better fit when the versatile Sennebogen 718 rolled into his view during his trip to Switzerland.

Equally impressive were the subsequent meetings with various company representatives, from Chairman and Managing Director Erich Sennebogen in Germany to Sennebogen LLC President Constantino Lannes and other members of the company’s North American team.

“These people are very flexible,” said Mayer, “and are completely interested in feedback and knowing what would work best for us here in Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire.”

Sennebogen 718 Proves the Right Fit As a purpose-built material handler, the wheeled Sennebogen 718 is more efficient and nimble than other carriers, be they modified excavators, cranes, or the forestry machines used on larger tree removal projects, Mayer said.

Mayer Tree Service’s Sennebogen 718 teams up with its Albach 2000.

One cuts, stacks and organizes while the other chips.

The 718 is ideal for “urbanized applications” such as residential, roadside, parks and golf courses, the core of the Mayer Tree Service business.

The low ground pressure makes this 48,000 lb. (21,772 kg) material handler particularly efficient on sensitive lands, such as golf courses. In one of Mayer’s first revelations with the machine, the 718 equipped with a 43 ft. (13 m) reach including telescoping stick brought down and carried out trees between a roadway and a riverbank while cycling three swamp mats to create the necessary path.

“I was blown away by how our operator was able to use just three mats, hopscotch them, cut the trees, and then come back to the road with everything.”

Once at the roadside, the trees were then chipped by the mobile Albach wood chipper, which had in the meantime been driven in from another job.

“Erich Sennebogen said it perfectly — The excavator is the ideal machine for digging a hole. There’s no better design out there for digging into the ground and below. But when you are talking about picking things off the ground and putting them up high, or picking them up high and putting them down on the ground, then it’s the Sennebogen,” Mayer said.

Without the excess size, weight and engine power, the Sennebogen 718 is able to have its energy placed entirely on the task at hand.

“All we’re doing is trees,” said Mayer, “and that’s where we want the energy to be. Once the tree gets on the ground, once we take the vertical and make it horizontal, then the

Albach can take it from there.”

A Welcome Addition to a Busy Operation While always looking for the next great equipment solution, Mayer Tree Service was built “by doing our work safely and efficiently.”

Equipped with a Hultdins hydraulic tree saw, the Sennebogen 718 has proven a good addition on both fronts.

“If we didn’t have it, we would be so overbooked,” said Mayer, who employs 60 to 70 people. “It really helps keep our backlog under control. We would have to pass on some of these jobs, because we just wouldn’t be able to get them done in time.”

“This 718 has enabled me to grow without having to add any extra people, which is really huge for us, because in this industry, good people are hard to find,” he said. “We have more equipment than people, which I think is a good model.”

The company’s waste wood management and biomass division, ProBark, turns the trees into bark mulch and fuel chips. The group’s fleet also includes an assortment of large equipment, including horizontal grinders and wheel loaders.

With its elevated maXcab, the Sennebogen 718 offers visibility and operational advantages for the Mayer Tree Service operators, who are now able to look more directly into the trees when cutting, rather than straight up. see SENNEBOGEN page 36

Model ZT1844...

Bandit’s New Stump Grinder Features Wide Swing Arc

The Model ZT1844 is equipped with an 18 in. (45.7 cm) diameter Bandit cutterwheel featuring Green Teeth.

Bandit Industries’ Model ZT1844 stump grinder features all the power and performance of every Bandit stump grinder, but with features that make it an ideal machine for rental companies or dedicated stump grinding professionals, according to the manufacturer.

The ZT1844 has a wide swing arc to cover more area when grinding at the stump and taller grinding height and deeper grinding depth to tackle larger stumps and chase the roots deeper into the ground, according to Bandit Sales Manager Jason Morey.

“And intuitive controls make grinding stumps easy, no matter if you’re a seasoned professional or a rental customer,” Morey said.

The Model ZT1844 is equipped with an 18 in. (45.7 cm) diameter Bandit cutterwheel

featuring Green Teeth. Electronic engagement means it’s as simple as flipping a switch to engage the cutterwheel. And the rubber track undercarriage means this machine can travel through uneven and rough terrain while still taking it easy on delicate lawns, according to the manufacturer.

“We have two engine options available on the ZT1844,” Morey said. “Customers can get a standard 26 horsepower Kohler gasoline engine, or opt for a 38 horsepower Kohler engine. Both engines feature electronic fuel injection, so these units are easy to start, even on cold morning.”

“And it is so quiet. The only sound you really hear is when the hydraulic saw comes out of the tree,” said Mayer, who gives a big thumbs-up to the combination of reach, versatility, mobility and fuel efficiency.

“Three or four days into a project and it will still be on its first tank of fuel,” he said. “Some of our other machines need a fuel truck strapped to them. You need to fill them every day.”

In Mayer’s view, “the engineering is where it’s at. The Sennebogen doesn’t do everything,” he said “but when it is doing its thing, you can’t touch it. It is off the charts.”

Describing the machine as a “complete disruptor” in his sector, he is naturally glad he was able to have it first.

“We’ve been doing this for a long time without this particular equipment,” said Mayer. “It’s like when you have been copying everything by hand and then somebody shows up one day with a photocopier. It’s that big of a difference.”

Lokotrack® ST2.8™ exceeds expectations in making a clean cement additive That’s how we make the big difference, the Metso Way.

A Lokotrack ST2.8 mobile scalping screen is helping a cement plant produce a clean additive for its production process, resulting in significant cost savings. The operator is saving up to $20 a ton by producing the additive using the ST2.8, rather than buying it from an outside source.

The Lokotrack ST2.8 has a larger throw than most machines in its size class, which allows it to produce a cleaner end product. The unit’s powerful Caterpillar C4.4 diesel engine meets the latest emissions standards, and a new hydraulic system helps to reduce fuel consumption.

Ritchie, IronPlanet Strive to Deliver Choices, Solutions to Its Customers After years of competing, Ritchie Bros. and IronPlanet realized it was best to work together to provide a unified set of solutions allowing customers to buy, sell and list equipment when, where and how they want — whether onsite or online.

Ritchie Bros. has been a leader in the auction business for decades, starting its operation in Canada in 1958 and expanding around the world. The company sells more than $4 billion of equipment each year.

IronPlanet launched in 1999 and since its inception was determined to find areas of the market it believed Ritchie Bros. wasn’t serving effectively, as its basis for competing with the category leader. This quest led IronPlanet to focus more on sale frequency with its flagship weekly online auctions, in addition to offering reserved and sector-specific marketplaces.

“Ritchie Bros. was a formidable competitor, we had to be nimble and look for ways to compete creatively,” said Jeff Jeter, former president of IronPlanet, now president of Ritchie Bros.’ U.S. sales team.

“We had tremendous respect for Ritchie Bros.’ onsite unreserved auctions and what the company had done to bring credibility and trust to the auction channel. We had to find the white space and go compete.”

At IronPlanet, its online auctions supported customers that didn’t want to transport equipment to sell it, and the frequency of its weekly events meant customers didn’t have to wait for the next live auction. IronPlanet also offered a controlled price marketplace and entered into new sectors with dedicated marketplaces like GovPlanet. It found its niche and was a tough competitor for Ritchie Bros. for years.

“We thought about the market opportunity similarly to Ritchie Bros., but developed different solutions,” said Jeter.

Understanding the complementary value IronPlanet was providing customers and an innovative vision of new ways they could join to help customers, Ritchie Bros.’ CEO Ravi Saligram approached IronPlanet CEO Greg Owens, outlining how the two companies would be best together. Led by Saligram, Ritchie Bros. completed the historic acquisition of IronPlanet in May of this year.

“During integration planning we discovered how much we truly had in common with Ritchie Bros. — we had a shared vision of driving value for customers, regardless of channel,” said Jeter. “If you look at the used equipment market, auctions are a small portion of the transactions happening around the world each year. Together we are constantly thinking about ‘how do we drive value for customers in a broader asset management and disposition model?’”

For Jeter, the number of platforms available with the combined company, including onsite unreserved auctions; weekly online featured auctions; and a reserve price marketplace, equates to a total selling solution for customers.

“Now we are acting as a trusted advisor, with a much more consultative approach to selling,” said Jeter.

“Previously, I would have probed and asked a customer about his or her needs and what motivated them, but at the end of the day, at IronPlanet, I didn’t have the total toolset.

Regardless of what the customer said, I was going to serve up what I had. Today, that’s very different — we have a solution for every equipment disposition need.”

“Our goal now as trusted advisors is to maximize recovery

for our customers on the assets they are selling, regardless of channel. If I have a client that comes to me tomorrow in Atlanta, they’ve missed that onsite event and they need to sell it quickly, OK, let’s start inspecting the equipment. I can sell it in two weeks on the IronPlanet weekly featured auction and I can turn that asset into cash in four or five weeks versus having to wait another couple of months for the next Atlanta sale. We are now able to be a trusted advisor and consultant to clients.”

This type of consultative selling is already helping customers across the country.

“We already have many customers trying new sales channels they never had before, often splitting a package of equipment across multiple Ritchie Bros. platforms. They may be selling some equipment in an onsite auction happening tomorrow, some assets that sold online a few weeks ago through our weekly featured auction and even a couple items they want more price control on selling in our Daily Marketplace. It really comes down to the needs of the customer and what is the best way to maximize returns for their assets.”

Simultaneously, Jeter and the Ritchie Bros. team are innovating to help make the buying process easier for customers.

“We are constantly looking at ways to make finding and buying equipment easier. One of the first things we are working on is combining all available assets into one searchable platform because at the end of the day, bidders are looking to purchase an asset independent of channel. Some may like auctions, others might like ‘Buy Now’ or a fixed price, but when you start shopping for something you really are just shopping for an asset for a need. Now, regardless of what marketplace we have an asset in, you get visibility in your search for those assets, regardless of channel. This is a huge benefit to buyers when they are trying to find equipment. It’s effectively making us one of the largest stores in the world for shopping for construction, transportation, oil and gas, mining, agriculture, and other industrial assets.”

At any given time, the newly combined company may have tens of thousands of items available for purchase.

“We sell hundreds of thousands of assets across many different sectors each year, including additional oil & gas assets being sold through Kruse Energy Auctioneers, government surplus assets through GovPlanet and thousands of trucks through TruckPlanet. Thinking about the future, we see these other asset classes including government equipment, trucks, oil and gas and agriculture as another vector of growth for us outside the core construction that both companies have been in for many years.”

So, what’s next for the combined company? Jeter says customers should start thinking about the company differently as they work to become a true trusted advisor, helping customers make decisions based on data-driven insights.

“We need to get our customers comfortable with our total solution set across our online and onsite auction platforms, including how data can help inform their equipment disposition decisions such as which selling channel to use when. We aspire to be their trusted advisor for all things related to used equipment disposition.”

Mecalac Addresses Market Needs With Terex Coventry Deal MECALAC from page 24

ment. The unique kinematics provides its articulated arm with a range of up to nearly 30 ft. in a single operation.

The MWR Series features 7MWR, 9MWR and 11MWR models, and a 15MWR model with an option for a Mecalac boom or a traditional excavator boom.

The MWR’s spacious cab is 20 percent lower when compared with other similar products on the market and entering and exiting the vehicle requires much less effort.

An Important Acquisition “Right from the start of the business, it’s always been important to us to listen to our customers both nationally and internationally, and to listen to their needs, which are not only economic but structural and cultural, too,” said Marchetta of the Terex Coventry plant purchase.

“Our machines have evolved in line with their expectations, and the expansion and complexity of urban construction sites. Our core business is now in compact, versatile, easy-to-handle, ergonomic machines, like the new MWR range. Machines that can dig, load and transport.”

Marchetta added that Mecalac responded to that demand for transport by bringing dumpers into the range.

“The historic markets that have driven our growth and the history of the brand continue to underpin Mecalac’s activities and are a source of inspiration for our research and development,” he said.

“But not all markets have the same expectations in terms of construction machinery and some are looking for different machines, which reflect a different view of urban construction sites. That’s where our new production plant, Mecalac Construction Equipment UK, will complement our overall offer.”

The acquisition of Terex Coventry came at a time when Mecalac was looking to extend and diversify its offer to respond to the demands of other types of markets than those in Northern and Southern Europe.

Henri Marchetta’s son, Alexandre Marchetta, who is vice chairman, added, “Our new global offer means we can now provide relevant solutions of the right size to meet expectations in the Ma- ghreb, Eastern Europe — including Russia, which is starting to approach us again — central Africa, the Middle East and new territories for us: Australia, North and South America. Mecalac Construction Equipment UK is therefore opening the doors to new markets for us, where there is a high demand for dumpers, backhoe loaders and compactors.”

People are central to Mecalac’s success and that isn’t going to change (and has not changed) as the result of acquiring a new business.

“Our network of current dealers is firmly attached to The new MWRs transform worksite logistics due to its incredible stability in any position and on any terrain. Whatever the conditions, the machines stay balanced both when travelling in transfer operations between sites, as well as during work phases.

The MWR’s fuel tank is extremely easy to access because it is located in the undercarriage, level with the step that leads straight to the cab.

the Mecalac brand and we have known them for a long time,” said Henri Marchetta. “They are loyal to us and we have developed a stable relationship with them, which we maintain on a daily basis. The new dealers from the distribution network for products made at our Coventry plant will now form part of that organization, based on the same values of stability, loyalty and professionalism. Because for the Mecalac group, collaboration without mutual trust is unthinkable. It’s one of our core characteristics and we see it as a strength: a value we share with our distributors.”

Alexandre Marchetta echoed his father’s view of trust.

“One of the things that attracted us in acquiring Terex Coventry was also the existence of a team, a network of distributors as much as customers and prospects, whom we can rely on,” he said. “It comes back to helping them share our values, corporate vision and brand messages, and supporting them in this new, shared adventure so that they become Mecalac ambassadors. Moreover, the professionalism of our historical dealers leaves us in no doubt about their ability to welcome new partners and an extended product range.

Every sale has always been and will remain a personal interaction, and our dealers are and will be trained in our products and our customers’ business sectors. Now made up of 200 dealers, our network is a highly dedicated group of skilled people and a real source of strength for the future of Mecalac.”

And just as important, they wanted trucks “Our drivers have been very satisfied with the Kenworth and after-the-sale support that they could depend to make onT880,” said Jerry Bunn, who manages the day-to-day oper- time deliveries of dirt, sand, gravel and rock for highway ations of both Bunn Hauling, the trucking firm started sever- projects and a variety of different commercial and residential al years ago by his wife, Cheryl, and Jerry T.

Since taking delivery of the first T880s, Bunn Hauling, “We chose the Kenworth T880 because of the value that along with Jerry T. Bunn Trucking have bought a total of 38, it offers, its popularity with our drivers and the sales and some equipped with 6-speed automatic Allison transmisservice support we’ve received from MHC Kenworth — sions.

Last year, Jerry T. Bunn Trucking took delivery of two “My father bought and ran several new and used six-axle Kenworth T880 dump trucks equipped with 46,000Kenworths. He was always happy with their performance lb. tandem suspensions and 54-in. axle spacings, plus two and the support of our Kenworth dealer.”

They are painted green — not Jerry T. Bunn Trucking’s typThe T880 also offers a great turning radius and excellent visibility, which is important when drivers are delivering products from local quarries to commercial and residential projects, particularly in urban areas, according to the company.

While some things have changed at Sims, N.C.-based Jerry T. Bunn Trucking since Jerry Bunn Sr. owned the aggregate hauler, others have not.

The company’s drivers, as in the past, still leave early in the morning and make as many as three dozen deliveries of dirt, gravel or rock in a single day. As a result of Jerry Bunn Sr.’s passing from kidney cancer in 2010, his wife Kaye now owns Jerry T. Bunn Trucking.

Bunn said his father’s desire to run an operation customers can rely on for ontime deliveries also carries over to Bunn Hauling.

The six-axle trucks will be particularly important, as trucks from both companies haul aggregate to North Carolina Department of Transportation’s four-lane 12.6-mi. extension from North Carolina 11 in Ayden north to Highway 264 and Stantonsburg Road in Greenville, N.C. That project, known as the Greenville Southwest Bypass Project, began in September and is expected to be completed in 2019.

By carrying women-owned business certification under the Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE) program with the U.S. Small Business Administration, and Historically Underutilized Business certification with the North Carolina DOT, both companies can bid on contracts that provide preferential treatment to women-owned businesses. While these certifications open up new opportunities, Bunn said attention to the needs of their customers has been the primary way Jerry T. Bunn Trucking and Bunn Hauling maintain strong relationships.

The after-the-sale support from Kenworth PremierCare Gold Certified dealer MHC Kenworth — Raleigh has helped both companies further cement their solid reputations. Gold Certified Kenworth dealers go above and beyond industry standards to help fleets and truck operators maximize uptime with a range of premium services, according to the company. This includes extended evening and weekend operating hours, rapid diagnosis of estimated repair time in two hours or less, dedicated technicians with training to use Kenworth TruckTech+ and service PACCAR engine.

“The extended hours support we receive from MHC Kenworth-Raleigh, which is open 24 hours, seven days a week, plus the on-site visits from the dealership’s technicians with the dealer’s mobile service unit, help us to keep drivers on the road making deliveries instead of taking their trucks into the shop for servicing,” Bunn said. “That can make a big difference in helping us stay on schedule.”
