Farewell to haul trucks!

by Jon M. Casey

A haul truck brings material to the processing plant while the overland conveyor is in its final days of installation. The dragline crane that mines the sand and gravel is located to the left of the conveyor on the left of this photo.

“We are refurbishing a gyratory crusher that we acquired, and we are reconditioning it from top to bottom,” he said. “When that is complete, we will install it here. We plan to have that done before winter.”

As material will drop into the new crusher, it will go across a Deister triple deck screen where the material is washed with the clean aggregate going to a secondary cone crusher and the sand passing through an classifier tank and twin 36-inch dewatering screws before being stockpiled as concrete or asphalt sand. At this location, the site produces a ratio of about 70 percent rock with 30 percent as sand.

“Much of the material from this plant is used as sub base or drainage aggregate, but a portion of it goes as decorative stone,” he says. “We recently sold one of our larger, more colorful stones as a lawn ornament for a customer in the local area. He had heard about how we have them lining our driveway here at the plant and he stopped in to see what they looked like. He liked what he saw and our plant superintendant, Rodger Brocklehurst sold it to him.

On a price per ton basis, that was an excellent sale!”

Hoobler says that as they move from one mining site to the next, they have an extensive reclamation program in place, one that involves the establishing of wetlands and habitat for waterfowl and other inhabitants of marshy areas in the region.

“Unlike a surface mine, where the excavated site can be reclaimed and reseeded as grasslands, much of what is left in a sand and gravel plant like those in northwestern, Pennsylvania, require the establishing of natural wetlands,” he says. “We have done a great job here at our first site. We completed mining this a few years ago, and since then, we have enjoyed several species of birds including nests of Eagles, a welcomed sight in this area. We also enjoy other creatures such as muskrats, frogs and turtles of various kinds.

Areas of the Slippery Rock Materials facility that have completed mining are reclaimed as wetlands like this. The reclaimed sites attract wild and domestic water fowl like the swan, the Blue Heron and the Canada Geese shown in the insets.

Moving material overland is a profitable idea!

It is haul trucks like these that Hoobler is looking to replace with the overland conveyor being installed.

by Jon M. Casey If you could choose between six conveyors with 290 electrical horsepower and no operators or four haul trucks with 1,320 diesel horsepower and four operators, why of course you would choose the Supreme Manufacturing, Inc. Overland Conveyor System.

With the installation of Slippery Rock Materials’ new Supreme Overland Conveyor System nearly complete, Dave Sapala, Marketing and Sales consultant for Supreme Manufacturing, Inc. says that moving material overland via conveyor is becoming more profitable and a more effective than ever before.

“With the increasing costs of fuel and equipment, especially rolling stock like haul trucks and other heavy equipment, the thought of lengthy, overland conveyor systems is a cost effective solution to materials handling in today’s aggregates and mining industry,” said Sapala. “We can see conveyor systems like this one taking the place of haul trucks with increasing regularity. The return on investment can be quicker than you might realize.”

Wherever it is feasible, a conveyor system is the logical choice. In this case, the pit does not need to be next to the processing plant as it is in many of the rock quarries. The mining can take place a good distance away with the processing plant remaining where it is currently located.”

You can call Supreme Manufacturing, Inc. at 724376-4110 or visit their Web site at www.suprememfg.net to see how they can help your company be more profitable.

For those of you that have followed the improvement journey of Shortfall Mining Company, you know that they have been trying to overcome improvement challenges and barriers found in most mining companies — departments that do not work well together, sabotage from within as some supervisors and employees found reasons to not support the program, department managers and superintendents that had different agendas or conflicting goals… we could go on.

The last time we checked the progress of the management team, they were about the conduct an all day culture session with their supervisors. After several months of attempting to build trust within and between operations and maintenance, the team was still struggling with inconsistent execution and unresolved trust issues that interfered with the ability of supervisors to work together effectively during a shift. Recently, several supervisors failed to follow through in several different areas (safety, planning, parts availability, training and communications).

Superintendents of operations and maintenance understood the importance of good follow through. They also knew that poor follow

through creates mixed messages that could sabotage the trust that had been built within the team and with the workforce up to this point. They decided to schedule an all day session to resolve these issues; a consultant that specialized in culture change helped put the agenda together, led exercises and helped facilitate the day.

Some supervisors had worked at Shortfall their entire careers and carried grudges about unresolved conflicts with other supervisors from many years ago.

Depending on the shift rotation schedule, sometimes the friction was so bad that Shortfall felt more like a soap opera than a mining operation. This “baggage” was a barrier to forming a strong team, so raising awareness about the damage that baggage can do to teamwork and culture was a key deliverable of the day. The same baggage affects the ability of supervisors to make consistent choices — choices that prevent problems instead of create them AND choices that form the culture (good or bad, proactive or reactive). If management choices are inconsistent with company priorities, values or expectations, crews begin to mistrust the management team and don’t believe that good choic-

es and consistent behavior are not really that important.

After some interactive exercises and honest discussions/confessions about the consequences of inconsistent choices, the air was cleared. People understood the impact of their choices on the entire team’s success. It did not take long to test what they learned from the session. The very next day, two supervisors with unresolved conflict from the past disagreed about the strategy for the day.

Suddenly they realized that they were “doing what they just learned not to do.” They decided to let go of the past and reached agreement so they could have a successful shift. In that moment, they apologized to each other and found common ground to work as a team in the future.

This session did not resolve all the problems at Shortfall, but it did make it ok to discuss and evaluate everyone’s progress in letting go of the past so they could meet today’s and tomorrow’s performance goals. It also allowed them to make a giant leap towards a proactive culture, which was a long term goal of their improvement program.

Working with less conflict and confusion was a new experience for the Shortfall team. In future weeks and months,

The People Side of Improvement

by Kay Sever Shortfall continued to reinforce their cultural foundation so they could sustain performance improvements.

Thought for the month: When supervisors and superintendents make reactive choices about taking responsibility, communications, execution and other supervisor responsibilities, the culture will be reactive.

Making different choices and letting go of “baggage” will move the culture from reactive to proactive.

Management teams at corporate and sites often lack knowledge or personal experience with this kind of work.

If your management teams cannot consistently meet production goals, if they have trouble reaching consensus, if managers say they want culture change but behave as if they don’t, or if you have come to the conclusion that culture change is the secret to your operation’s success, you would benefit from calling Kay. She has 30 years of mining experience and handson experience working with mines and plants to improve performance and change mining culture. She can help your people be more effective in planning, communications, tapping into excess equipment capacity, preventing prob-

lems and “managing change like you manage operations.” Kay troubleshoots management systems to find and fix poorly designed processes and coaches management teams through the change process. She also implements improvement programs for mining and downstream processing facilities. See MiningOpportunity.com for details on her services and contact information.

U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood announces $417.3 million in grants for state highway projects Funds to create jobs by expanding highway repairs and roadway safety WASHINGTON — U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood today announced $417.3 million in grants to fund an array of efforts ranging from interstate maintenance to research into innovative bridge materials and construction methods.

“Transportation investments like these will create jobs, increase mobility, improve quality of life for all Americans and strengthen our national economy,” said Secretary LaHood. “The demand from the states for these funds shows just how critical the need is for infrastructure investment.”

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) invited states to apply in June for federal funding from 14 grant programs.

Requests poured in from every state, Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C. —

more than 1,800 applications, totaling nearly $13 billion, which is more than 30 times the funds available.

“At a time when states are facing serious budgetary constraints, these grants will help fill a critical need,” said Federal Highway Administrator Victor Mendez. “Investments like these are immediate and long lasting and will help create jobs.”

Among the grant recipients, North Carolina received $3.75 million to improve the I-40/I-77 interchange near Statesville. The project is the North Carolina Dept. of Transportation’s top priority, and when completed, will reduce traffic congestion and improve safety.

When the current interchange was built in the late 1960s, it was expected to handle only 5,000 vehicles each day.

Currently, the ramps carry about 70,000 vehicles per day.

Colorado received

$3.76 million to help with accelerated bridge construction techniques that will speed completion of its replacement of the Pecos Street Bridge over I-70. These techniques will allow the bridge to be put in place all at one time, over a 50 hour period, instead of disrupting traffic over 12 months.

“The list of state highway projects in need of financial help grows almost daily,” added Administrator Mendez. “We are glad to see these funds put to use but recognize there is still much to do to meet America’s transportation needs.”

Congress created the discretionary grant programs to give FHWA the latitude to support projects that maintain the nation’s roads and bridges, improve roadway safety and make communities more livable. In previous years, Congress designated some of this grant money for specific projects

and FHWA awarded the remainder through a competitive process. Because the FY11 budget passed by Congress last

April directed that all such funds be discretionary, FHWA awarded these funds through a competitive process.

A state by state list of the FY11 grants is available at www.fhwa.dot.gov/pres sroom/fhwa1137.

“We can lick gravity, but sometimes the paperwork is overwhelming.”

- Werner von Braun

by Randy E. Newcomer, CMSP COHC Returning to MSHA’s list of Rules to Live By I’m forced to confront the difference between talking about safety and talking about compliance. The last column we discussed common sense and I have to admit it probably applies more often to safety than it does compliance.

Of course I’m talking about safety as attending to issues that will keep you from getting injured or killed and compliance as dealing with things that keep you from getting a citation from an inspector. In a perfect world the two would be the same if the purpose of rules and regulations accurately is to keep workers safe. Needless to say we don’t live in that perfect world.

CAPITAL EQUIPMENT COMPANY 9714 Ensley Lane Leawood, KS 66206 John Mabry 816-830-6421

It seems a simple thing to park a vehicle or piece of equipment. Even the regulation, at first glance seems fairly simple.

It says: 30 CFR § 56.14207 Parking procedures for unattended equipment.

Mobile equipment shall not be left unattended unless the controls are placed in the park position and the parking brake, if provided, is set. When parked on a grade, the wheels or tracks of mobile equipment shall be either chocked or turned into a bank.

There are three different actions here: 1. Placing the vehicle in park, 2. Setting the parking brake and 3. Chocking the wheels or turning them into a bank. For the most part, people commonly do the first and 99.9 percent or more of the time it’s sufficient. I mean I don’t commonly walk around parking lots afraid that parked vehicles are going to suddenly begin rolling toward me even when there’s a substantial grade.

From a quick survey of mostly guys at least the parking brake seems to be an option they wouldn’t need on their vehicle

because it’s rarely used. Now maybe I have a circle of friends and acquaintances that is radically anti-parking brake, but it seems that most people are satisfied their vehicle will stay put with just the first option. I don’t know anyone who carries a chock around and uses it when forced to park where it’s not perfectly level.

On a mine site failing to use the parking brake, even on the level is a violation. That’s beyond argument. Whether it’s a serious one or not may depend upon the situation, but it’s still a violation. I’m not sure more needs said than that. If you don’t use it it’s a violation even if you can convince me that your vehicle isn’t going anywhere. It’s at the very least a compliance issue. I’ll agree it’s unlikely, but I’d have to say there’s some chance at least of it being a safety issue as well.

I know I could spend several articles on chocking. Many facilities enforce a rule of always chocking whether on a grade or not and even though the rules only require it on a grade it can also be a compliance issue with

the inspector who does not agree with your idea of what constitutes a grade sufficient to require chocking. I’m not a fan of it from the aspect that it’s overkill and people will tend to think it and therefore all other safety rules are stupid and only to be followed when someone’s watching.

On the other hand I’ve been to Gravity Hill in Pennsylvania.

There are phenomena like these around the world. I found the one near Bedford as advertised on billboards along the PA Turnpike. I did as instructed and pulled up the hill and stopped on the line painted across the road. I took my car out of gear, released the brake, and was still surprised when my car began to roll forward UP the hill! Now I know there was nothing supernatural involved and the only thing going on was that my perception was being tricked by the lay of the land. Still, it’s a good lesson to tell us that it’s difficult for us to truly know what is level and where our vehicle needs extra help to stay put.

On this point I’ll argue that it

may seem like overkill, but I’ll shoot for compliance anyway.

After all, enough miners thought their equipment would stay put and wound up getting run over to put this on the Rules to Live By list.

Just a Minute: Whether you’re on mine property or not next time you park use the parking brake. Then use it the next time. Can it become a habit for you? What’s the true cost of using it? Avoid the surprise of a grade where you think it’s level. There’s one way to truly be certain. Follow the rules.

Cement maker goes green with AEGIS IPRO Bearing Protection Rings

Monarch Cement Company's plant in Humboldt, Kansas It seemed as though nothing could stop the squealing.

Not that the Monarch Cement Company’s huge ball mill wasn’t already loud. Powered by a 5,000 hp motor, it pulverizes 100 tons of clinker (a burned mixture of limestone and shale) per hour. But the squealing was not what Randy Riebel wanted to hear.

As electrical supervisor at Monarch’s plant in Humboldt, KS, he knew the noise meant the motor’s bearings were going — again.

In fact, the sound of chronic bearing damage was all too familiar at the plant, which has the capacity to produce 1,300,000 tons of cement a year. Since 2001,

when the ball mill was new, its motor bearings had been replaced three times.

“We kept greasing those bearings, but they kept on squealing,” Riebel recalls. “We knew that if we waited too long, the bearing race walls would become fluted like they had in the past, and we weren’t looking forward to another replacement because of all the expense and downtime. It takes at least 10 days to pull that motor — it’s a major production. Sometimes we have to hire help, rent a hoist to put it on a truck, and take it away to be rebuilt. So this time (summer of 2009) I decided to try something else.”

The “something else” was the AEGIS™ iPRO

Following the success of the AEGIS iPRO Bearing Protection Ring on its ball mill, Monarch Cement Company installed the ring on this baghouse fan motor (blue) that had also required frequent bearing replacements.

Bearing Protection Ring, manufactured by Maine based Electro Static Technology (EST). By safely channeling harmful electrical currents away from bearings to ground, the iPRO extends the lives of medium voltage motors and generators, thus improving the reliability of entire systems in which they are used. It is available in a range of sizes to accommodate generator/motor shafts up to 30-inches in diameter.

Mitigating electrical bearing damage If not diverted, shaft voltages can discharge through bearings, pitting the balls and race walls.

Without long term bearing protection, concentrated pitting at regular intervals along a race wall can cause washboard-like ridges called fluting, a source of noise and vibration. The eventual result is motor failure.

Ironically, some products designed to protect bearings, such as conventional spring loaded grounding brushes, require extensive maintenance themselves.

Others, such as insulation and ceramic bearings, can shift damage to connected equipment.

A nagging, widespread problem...

Contractors and retail home improvement stores in six Midwestern states depend on the Monarch plant, which sends cement by truck and train to its terminals in Des Moines, Iowa and Dodge City, KS. The terminals distribute the cement to 13 Monarch subsidiaries, which sell it in their respective areas. Some of the cement is sold in bulk, some in bags. And some of it is further processed by the subsidiaries, which fabricate building products or add stone and sand to produce ready mix concrete.

When Monarch was founded in 1908, chunks of blasted limestone (“shot rock”) up to four feet across were loaded by hand into mule drawn carts. Now this limestone is moved by huge front end loaders, 50 ton dump trucks and conveyors to be processed by a series of computer controlled crushers, kilns and mills until it is as fine as face powder.

Most of the processing machinery is powered by electric motors, and the problem of chronic bearing

damage is by no means limited to the plant’s ball mills. Many of the motors are controlled by variable frequency drives (VFDs), which induce additional high frequency currents on motor shafts. A fan or pump motor tends to use less power if the input is modulated by a VFD, but the benefits of improved efficiency are lost if the motor keeps breaking down.

Such breakdowns were recurring headaches for Riebel, but because the two AEGIS™ iPRO rings installed in 2009 appear to be protecting the bearings of the ball mill motor, he has since had IEMCO install the iPRO on nine more motors that had to be removed from service.

A case in point is a VFD controlled cooler vent fan where the 300 hp motor had to be replaced frequently for almost eight years. Every time, the kiln had to be shut down for at least a day. The old motor was removed and the rebuilt spare motor had to be aligned and coupled.

“We’d send the pulled motor out to be rebuilt, but then three to six months later we’d have to do the same thing all over again,” says Riebel. “For the cooler vent fan motor we tried insulation on both bearings. With the insulation, the motor lasted two years between breakdowns. The shunted electricity might have hurt the bearings in the fan itself.

Insulation just pushes the problem on down the line.

The electricity has got to go somewhere if it’s not grounded. The iPRO has given this fan a fresh start.”

“We didn’t really realize what the problem was,” Riebel reflects. “There wasn’t much information available about electrical bearing damage. We just knew that bearings would fail and the motor would overheat, but we were not looking to see why. Again and again, we just sent the motor out, got it rebuilt, and put it back in service. We didn’t know the root cause....” ... Solved by an innovative, Green Technology It is now Monarch policy to have IEMCO add the iPRO ring in the shop whenever a VFD controlled Monarch fan motor is overhauled. Another such installation was on the 2,250 hp motor for an ID (induced draft) fan that pulls kiln heated air through a roller mill to dry the limestone and shale during the raw grinding process. Other motors that now have iPROs include four at the plant’s kilns, where air is forced in and out: two 2,000 hp ID fan motors and two 1,000 hp baghouse (dust collecting) fan motors.

Also, because a cement plant is a very dusty place and many motors are outdoors, Monarch has begun to specify that some of its new motors must come equipped with the AEGIS™ Severe Duty SGR Bearing Isolator Shaft Grounding Ring, another Electro Static Technology product. As in the iPRO, the secured conductive microfibers of the AEGIS™ Severe Duty SGR completely surround the motor shaft for efficient grounding, but this model has a built-in IP56 noncontact isolation seal to provide extra protection from dust, water and other contaminants.

Monarch’s Maintenance Manager Mark Pily authorized the purchase of the plant’s first motor with a factory installed Severe Duty SGR, after consulting IEMCO’s Wilkins. As of this writing, a 200 hp

air compressor motor is the only such motor in operation at the plant.

“We want to keep the bearings clean because we push that motor really hard,” Riebel explains. “We usually lose that motor because of winding failure. I think most of that is caused by the bearings starting to fail, which causes the motor to overload.”

An ounce of prevention Using a voltage probe and oscilloscope, Riebel periodically takes shaft voltage readings on all the plant’s motors with grounding rings. He is pleased with the results because the readings are low, indicating that the rings have reduced potentially damaging shaft voltages.

Riebel also gives a high grade to the service the plant has received from IEMCO: “In my opinion they are by far the best shop we’ve worked with, and we’ve

worked with most every shop in the area. Scott (Wilkins) is really involved. He’s really a ‘get it right the first time’ kind of person.”

Time will tell exactly how much money the rings will save Monarch overall, but Riebel is convinced the AEGIS™ iPRO provides effective, long term bearing protection that reduces the costs of downtime and motor maintenance.

“So far, so good,” he says. “On the 5,000 hp, since the last set of bearings only lasted a year, chances are we would have noticed problems by now, but we haven’t had any — no squealing.”

The ball mill where the first two grounding rings were installed at the Monarch Cement Company plant. The bearings of the mill's 5,000 hp motor failed regularly until damaging voltages were diverted by an AEGIS iPRO Bearing Protection Ring (inset) at each end of the motor. These on site retrofits were accomplished without the need to decouple the motor from the mill, thanks to the use of a split ring version of the iPRO.

iPRO split ring bearings give producers a new option in motor and equipment repair

by Jon M. Casey For producers who are looking for a way to reduce or eliminate bearing replacement, the maintenance free AEGIS™ iPRO is ideal for medium voltage motors that drive pumps, compressors, mixers, shredders, conveyors and other machinery used in mining, food processing, wastewater treatment, petrochemical refining and other high current applications. The iPRO also protects the bearings of generators in both utility and on site power generation systems.

When Monarch Cement began discussing electrical bearing damage with Scott Wilkins, manager of Motor Shop Operations for Independent Electric Machinery Company (IEMCO), a motor and equipment repair shop, Wilkins recommended the iPRO as a replacement bearing. That was when Riebel had IEMCO install two of them on the ball mill motor.

While for most large motors EST recommends installing an iPRO in the drive end and insulation on the non-drive end, for some large motors — especially those that do

not have insulation designed into them or where insulation cannot be easily installed — EST recommends installing iPRO rings at both the drive end and the nondrive end of the motor.

Riebel and Wilkins chose the iPRO split ring model, which is designed to facilitate field retrofits. The mating halves of each iPRO were installed around the motor shaft without the need to decouple the motor from the mill.

Because they deal with large motors routinely, IEMCO’s personnel are well aware of the severe damage shaft currents can cause to motor bearings. They recommend iPRO replacements as a way to boost the electron transfer rate. The iPRO’s entire inner circumference is lined with multiple rows of conductive microfibers that are locked securely in the ring’s patented AEGIS™ FiberLock™ channel.

These microfibers completely surround the motor shaft, providing millions of discharge points for harmful shaft currents and creating the path of least resistance that effectively diverts these

currents away from bearings to ground.

The microfibers themselves are specially engineered for exceptional flexibility to prevent breakage and ensure that the ring will last for the life of the motor.

Because it prolongs the life of bearings, motors and motor driven systems, the iPRO qualifies as sustainable technology under the Federal Energy Management Program.

IEMCO is a family owned business that was founded in 1906.

They sell, service, repair and tests motors, generators, hoists, welders and electrical distribution switchgear. IEMCO’s main office in Kansas City, KS, where they have a fully equipped machine shop. The company also has five other service centers in the region.

The Senate voted 926 to send President Barack Obama a measure extending authorization at current funding levels for federal highway and transit programs until March 31 and for federal aviation programs until Jan. 31. Action came one day before aviation programs and revenue collection authority were scheduled to lapse and 15 days before surface transportation programs and revenue collection authority were scheduled to expire.

Representatives passed the bill by voice vote Tuesday after a short debate in which no member spoke against it. The Senate reached a unanimous consent agreement Thursday afternoon to call up the bill, debate two amendments for 10 minutes, and then vote on the amendments and final passage. Both amendments failed.

The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials issued a statement commending Congress for approving the bill (HR 2887) to extend both the nation’s surface transportation and aviation programs.

“The six month extension of federal highway and transit programs approved by Congress today ensures the continuation of thousands of job creating infrastructure projects in every state,” said AASHTO Executive Director John Horsley.

“We congratulate the House and Senate leadership on both sides of the aisle for their tireless hard work to bring about this positive result. We encourage the president to quickly sign the legislation.

AASHTO is prepared to work with Congress and the administration

over the next six months to pass a robust, multiyear surface transportation reauthorization bill.”

When signed into law by the president, this would be the eighth short term extension of the 2005 surface transportation authorization law known as “SAFETEA-LU,” which originally expired Sept.

30, 2009. And it would be the 22nd extension of FAA’s authorization, which expired Sept. 30, 2007.

Congress has not acted on a new six year highway and transit package during the past two years because of differences on funding levels and how to pay for a comprehensive investment program. Likewise, Congress has been unable to agree to a multiyear FAA reauthorization due to policy disputes.

As a supplement to maintaining existing current funding levels, Obama sent to Congress on Monday a bill, the American Jobs Act, to pump $50 billion into transportation projects next fiscal year and allocate $10 billion to establish a national infrastructure bank.

Two amendments to cut spending voted down Senators went on the record supporting maintaining existing transportation funding levels, voting overwhelmingly to reject two amendments that would have trimmed spending.

Both amendments were offered by Sen. Rand Paul, R-Kentucky. The first amendment would have allowed the Highway Trust Fund to spend no more than it collected next fiscal year in gasoline, diesel fuel, and

other user fees. Paul said this would cut an estimated $9 billion from highway and transit programs in Fiscal Year 2012. The amendment failed 84-14.

The second Paul amendment would have cut Federal Aviation Administration appropriations to Fiscal Year

2008 levels. Paul said the provision would have sliced $700 million out of FAA’s budget during the 4.5 month duration of the extension. The amendment failed 61-36.

Senate Environment and Public Works Committee Chairwoman Barbara Boxer, D-CA, issued a statement after Thursday’s votes.

“Today was a crucial moment for the 1.8 million workers and the thousands of businesses who depend on a strong transportation bill,” Boxer said. “There were needless delays, but in the end the Senate showed it was willing to do the right thing. By turning back an amendment that was intended to cut surface transportation by one-third, it puts us in a good position as we move forward on our

two year (reauthorization) bill.”

Boxer spoke on the Senate floor earlier Thursday regarding objections to the extension that had been raised by Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Oklahoma.

Coburn held up consideration of the transportation extensions Wednesday and most of Thursday while arguing the requirement that states spend a certain percentage of their highway funds for “enhancement projects” such as bicycle and pedestrian paths should be eliminated.

Video of Boxer’s 29 minute long floor remarks is available at www.youtube.com/epwchairmanboxer.

House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman John Mica, R-FL, also released a statement

applauding the Senate’s passage of the bill.

“It is a positive step for the country that the Congress has passed this historic combination of extensions, which is important for job creation and our nation’s infrastructure,” Mica said. “With the FAA bill delayed four years and a two year delay on the highway measure, Congress must now act responsibly to enact long-term reauthorizations that will put Americans back to work and build our nation’s infrastructure. I challenge House and Senate leaders to continue to work toward long overdue solutions that address our transportation needs.”

ClearSpan™ Fabric Structures provides design-build solutions for on site facilities including equipment storage, maintenance and wash down buildings and more. ClearSpan Hercules Truss Arch buildings feature high clearances and spacious interiors without support posts. These fabric buildings are outfitted with frames constructed from USA made, triple galvanized structural steel that will hold up strong in corrosive environments. Rip-stop polyeth-

ylene covers let natural light shine through, eliminating the need for daytime artificial lighting and lowering energy costs.

Fabric structures are low in cost per square foot, for a smaller initial investment over traditional wood or steel structures.

ClearSpan structures also allow users to save on construction costs because installation timelines are often shorter than a week. Since these buildings have minimal foundation requirements,

costly concrete foundations are not necessary and they are also easy to re-locate from site to site once a job is finished.

Every ClearSpan Hercules Truss Arch Building is custom engineered to fit the requirements of the specific location, such as snow load or foundation type. Made in the USA, they can be built to any length and up to 300-feet wide.

Local service is key to Maine Drilling & Blasting’s celebration of 45 years GARDINER, ME — Maine Drilling & Blasting celebrates the importance of local service to its own success over the past 45 years by sharing its resources and wealth with various organizations which serve local community needs throughout the Northeast and across the country.

For Maine Drilling & Blasting, it all started with service. Hard work, honesty and quality service were the bedrock upon which Ted Purington, Sr. and his wife, Judy, founded the company in Gardiner, ME, back in 1966. Throughout the years that followed, and the expansion of the company’s footprint from Maine to New England, then on through the Northeast, from Pennsylvania to Virginia, these principles remained constant, along with a deliberate focus on local service.

“We’ve always worked to grow regional markets with local people,” explains company president and CEO, Bill Purington. “That means local employees and resources for supply and distribution. We’ve made it a point to commit to a local presence wherever we go. That’s how we started; that’s how we

operate today.”

In keeping with the spirit of that local service, Maine Drilling & Blasting has chosen to celebrate its 45th Anniversary by stepping up its Corporate Giving Portfolio to include donations to an increased number of organizations serving the needs of local communities and people.

In addition to repeat recipients such as The United Ways, Big Brothers Big Sisters and MaineGeneral Hospital, The Unity House of Troy, NY, received for the first time from MD&B, a major monetary contribution to help that 40 year old service agency continue to make life better for those struggling in NY’s Capital Region. Not neglecting hands-on, ‘boots on the ground’ aid, MD&B also contributed labor, equipment and finances to the Kids’ Kove revitalization project, to help rebuild that Merrimack NH community playground.

Among the additional organizations that MD&B is supporting for the first time this year are Bucksport Community Concerns, Bucksport, ME, The Upstate Northeastern New York Chapter of the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation

of America, Connecticut Northern Lights Girls Sports, Inc., the Vermont Chapter of the March of Dimes, Camp Men-OLan, Quakertown, PA, Nativity School, New Bedford, MA, and Mothers Kitchen USA of the MA Center, CA. From helping girls establish a strong foundation on which to build their lives, to funding research and education to save babies’ lives … from graduating low income young men and preparing them for further education to helping fund a cure for Crohn’s disease … from feeding the hungry to caring for local residents who are hurt-

ing or struggling, these organizations and human service agencies do yeoman’s work.

“We’re very pleased this year to be able to support more organizations, the causes they further, and the lives they change,” says Purington.

“Being local means connecting with local customers and communities to make a difference That’s what it’s all about in our business, too. That’s how we succeed, with local knowledge and local skill we bring to bear on our customers’ projects.”

When it comes to service, Maine Drilling & Blasting is committed to

being the organization of choice. Earlier in the year, the company canvassed a cross section of its customer base to elicit feedback on the quality of the services being provided. “We weren’t after candy coating,” notes Purington. “We wanted to know what’s important to our customers.

The thoughtful and honest input we received will be invaluable to our managers and superintendents in the field, and in developing our business plan for sustainability into the future.”

He continues, “As part of our inquiry, we also asked them to identify community needs, and local service organizations important to them.

I’m happy to say their recommendations formed the basis for the

majority of the new 45th Anniversary donations we’re making.”

RACINE, WI — New Holland Construction today announced that in North America it will refocus on its strengths: the compact product lines for the landscaping, utility, residential construction and agriculture industries, among others.

As a result, starting in

2012 New Holland Construction will begin withdrawing from the North American market its crawler dozers, motor graders, more than 80 horsepower wheel loaders, six ton plus excavators and telescopic handlers. New Holland Construction will continue to

offer compact products and associated attachments, including the successful skid steer loaders, compact track loaders, tractor loaders, loader backhoes, compact wheel loaders and compact excavators.

This announcement only concerns the North

American market, as New Holland Construction will continue to sell the heavy equipment product lines in all other world markets.

“New Holland Construction’s heritage in North America is a great source of pride and we are pleased with the suc-

cess of our compact line.

We are committed to providing our New Holland Construction customers with the superior equipment performance they expect,” commented Jim Hasler, vice president of CNH Construction, North America.

tion in North America manufactures and markets a full line of skid steer loaders, compact track loaders, loader backhoes, tractor loaders, compact excavators and compact wheel loaders. More information is available at www.newholland.com.

New Sonic Horn improves operating efficiency and consistency NEPONSET, IL — One of the world leaders in bulk material flow technology has introduced a new addition to its family of flow aid products. The MARTIN® Sonic Horn is an acoustic cleaner that reduces system downtime, maintenance and operating costs, while improving performance and prolonging equipment life. In addition to the low cost of ownership, acoustic cleaning helps avoid structural fatigue or damage, prevents dry particulate buildup and increases system efficiency. Especially effective around pipes and behind obstacles, sonic energy de-bonds particulates with a 360 degree sweep, cleaning inaccessible parts.

Sonic horns work by

producing a low frequency, high pressure sound wave, which is created when compressed air flexes a titanium diaphragm in the sound generator.

This sound wave is then magnified as it is emitted through the cleaner’s bell. The sound pressure causes dry particulate deposits to resonate and become fluidized, allowing them to be removed by constant gas flow or gravity.

“Acoustic cleaning technology has been providing cost saving solutions for decades,” commented Jeff Shelton, Multiport Specialist, from Martin Engineering. “It’s a proven technology that can improve throughput and reduce blockages.”

There are two models of the sonic horn available.

MARTIN Model D-75 Sonic Horn has a fundamental frequency of 75 Hz and measures 92.07inches in length and weighs190-pounds. This model has a wavelength of 14.75-feet.

The MARTIN Model D230 Sonic Horn (230 Hz fundamental frequency) features a wavelength of 4.75-feet and is 27.5inches long. It weighs 54.27-pounds.

Sonic Horns comply with OSHA dB regulations for vessel interiors, helping manufacturing facilities to comply with emissions regulations.

MARTIN Sonic Horns are well suited for use in boilers, heat exchangers, economizers, bag houses, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) processes, ID fans, electrostatic precip-

itators (ESP), silos, hoppers, cyclones and air pre-heaters.

Used in combination with Martin Engineering’s BIG BLASTER® Air Cannon technology, MARTIN Sonic Horns provide a total cleaning and flow solution. Specific launch dates of this new product may vary slightly, depending on the country/region.

Founded in 1944, Martin Engineering is the world leader in making bulk materials handling cleaner, safer and more productive. The firm is headquartered in Neponset, IL, with global reach from operations in Brazil, China, France, Germany, Indonesia, Mexico, South Africa, Turkey, India and the UK. For more information, visit www.mar-

tin-eng.com or call 309852-2384. Exact dates of this product introduction may vary by region. Glob-

al representatives for Martin Engineering can be found at www.martineng.com/rep-finder.

5165LP TRACK UNIT

Lippmann’s 5165LP Track Unit is the perfect solution for primary recycle crushing of concrete, asphalt, and most aggregate applications where ease of mobility at the site, and the ability to move from job to job can dramatically increase opportunities for profit.

Lippmann’s large 5165LP Horizontal Impactor’s 40” x 66” feed opening accepts massive, abrasive material and features a robust 51” x 65” wide rotor that’s built tough - thick ribs, extra large backing beams, and four replaceable three flip hammers secured by heavy jacking bolts. The crusher offers a high ratio of reduction, easy adjustment, and produces a highly cubical product. Wear components provide long life due to advanced metallurgy.

Mounted on a proven tough, vibration, fatigue and torsional resistant module chassis, this track plant features a 10’ 6” variable speed, heavy-duty vibrating grizzly feeder with hydraulic folding hopper, teamed with an independent double deck 8’-2” grizzly scalper screen, ideal for producing multiple products.

A removable discharge conveyor has hydraulic raise and lower for operation and transport.

Magnetic separator is available.

Equipped with a 450 HP tier compliant diesel engine, the plant’s fuel efficient, triple power transmission is a proven direct crusher drive system that delivers optimum efficiency, with twin VDP pumps for hydraulic drives. IC700 Intelligent Control offers easy one touch screen, built-in fault diagnostics, with remote up to 300 yds.
