New Articulated Dump Trucks From Doosan Doosan introduces two new articulated dump trucks (ADTs) for the 28and 40-metric-ton weight class, offering superior performance, improved fuel efficiency, and increased reliability, serviceability and operator comfort. Doosan DA30-5 and DA40-5 ADTs have Tier 4 com-

pliant diesel engines and feature improvements to the driveline, engine and cab for all-around operator ease of use.

The new 365-horsepower DA30-5 and 490-horsepower DA40-5 are powered by fuel-efficient Scania DC9 and DC13 diesel engines, respectively. The trucks

have been configured with a high-pressure commonrail (HPCR) fuel delivery system as well as cooled exhaust gas recirculation (CEGR). Tier 4 compliant Doosan ADTs combine selective catalyst reduction (SCR) with a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) to reduce engine emission

levels. Diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) is used with SCR technology and is stored in a DEF tank on the truck.

The DOC transforms particulate matter (PM) emissions into harmless water and carbon dioxide. DEF is injected into the exhaust system to transform the nitrogen oxides (NOx) produced during combustion into water and nitrogen.

New to the DA30-5 and DA40-5 is a mass airflow sensor and exhaust brake, working in tandem to reduce emissions. The mass airflow sensor allows the electronic control unit to improve the management of airflow provided by the variable geometry turbocharger, and to optimize fuel delivery to the combustion chamber based on air intake volume and rpm. The exhaust brake helps to maintain consistent engine temperatures at lower engine speeds to improve operating efficiency. Consistent engine temperatures reduce harmful emission levels in the exhaust when the

engine is running at lower rpms. Under normal operation, with high rpms, the exhaust brake is inactive.

Improved fuel efficiency Following extensive hot and cold weather ADT testing with customers, which took place in 2013, the DA40-5 recorded an average of only 4.49 gallons (17 liters) an hour. The DA30-5 recorded an average of only 3.96 gallons (15 liters) per hour. Note: these results are operator and site specific.

Driveline improvements Doosan strives to provide its ADT customers with the lowest and safest cost-per-ton transport rate.

For example, the DA405 has a new bolt-on rear differential. The DA40-5 has improved gear ratios that provide reduced axle speed, improved component life, reduced vibration and lowered fuel consumption. It will replace the current one-piece rear axle.

This design is a competitive advantage to further increase productivity and

1-877-255-9293 www.vanedequipment.com

As one of the most influential exhibitions in the construction machinery industry, bauma China has always been an important platform for construction equipment manufacturers to show new products, strategies and abilities. In this bauma China, LiuGong’s largest wheel loader, CLG8128H will debut to the world.

CLG8128H is mainly used for large projects.

It is developed according to LiuGong’s product planning and market demand, which is featured with 4,04m dumping

height, 7.0m3 rock bucket with movable blade and DANA-C9672 torque converter. With 12 ton rated load and 360KN breakout force, it only takes 7.4 seconds to raise for full loading, which improves work efficiency.

For years, LiuGong has been staying ahead of the industry in technology research and development, among which the wheel loader technology has been practiced and tested for more than half a century.

In 1966, LiuGong successfully developed the Z435, China’s first wheel loader

reliability, while reducing fuel consumption.

The new Doosan ADTs continue to feature a frontmounted turning ring, a sloping rear frame, tandem rear bogey and independent front suspension. The front-mounted turning ring helps keep all six wheels in permanent contact with the ground, even at a maximum turning angle. These ADTs are able to operate on very rough and soft terrain and are ideal for the mining and aggregate industry, commercial and residential site developments and infrastructure projects.

A sloping rear frame lowers the centre of gravity for more equal weight distribution, and improved stability and safety when fully loaded. The sloping frame improves tractive effort, helps to minimize tire wear and lowers ground-bearing pressure. The independent front suspension improves operator comfort in rough terrain and assists in maintaining Continued on page 5

and in 1971, LiuGong successfully manufactured the first articulated wheel loader in China. This laid the foundation for the wheel loader’s development in modern China. In 2001, LiuGong produced the first plateau-type wheel loader in the world, which filled the worldwide gap and won the Second Prize of State Scientific and Technological Progress, the one and only prize that has been awarded in this industry so far. In 2007, LiuGong became the largest loader supplier in the world. The launch of CLG8128 wheel loader not only establishes the market position of LiuGong’s wheel loader, but also shows LiuGong’s capability in technology innovation. b

ground contact.

The tandem rear bogey delivers optimal traction with maximum ground contact in uneven terrain.

Due to the tandem design, fewer points of power transfer mean less power loss and a more efficient driveline. All of these features to make sure the ADT maintains maximum ground contact and the best transfer of power to all wheels, allowing for reduced maintenance costs.

Enhanced cooling DA30-5 and DA40-5 ADTs have an external engine intake air grille located on the truck hood’s righthand side, providing cooler air to the engine intake improving engine efficiency.

Plus, a new air vent helps prevent over pressurization in the engine compartment.

Increased cab comfort Numerous design elements in Doosan ADTs make them one of the best trucks for off-road hauling applications. It starts with visibility — an important characteristic of Doosan ADTs. To help promote good visibility from the cab, Doosan ADTs have a sloping hood style for an

excellent front view and superior side view with lateral sight lines. Rearview mirrors provide operators a view of the centre tires, while a rear camera — pictured on the colour LCD — assists operators in seeing behind the truck. Plus, standard heat and air conditioning, precise steering, ergonomic controls, high quality air-suspension seat, and the lowest noise levels in this ADT size class, increase comfort when operating a Doosan ADT. Two levers control the transmission gear selection and dumping of the body box. Also featured are the cushioned dumping cylinders which slow the dumping and lowering speeds.

A 7-inch LCD shows many machine parameters such as engine rpm, travel speed, differential locks and fuel consumption.

In addition, an operating input panel provides increased productivity with heated mirrors and seat, an interaxle lock, retarder activation and machine lights.

The new DA30-5 and DA40-5 now come standard with a gradient meter.

Two meter readings are visible on the LCD screen. Up/

downhill is shown as a percentage, and sideways tilt is shows as a degree value.

Simple service A tilting cab gives service technicians excellent access to all of the truck’s major components. The cab can be tilted back in less than five minutes to expedite routine maintenance and repairs. New DA30-5 and DA40-5 trucks have only three wear parts on the entire rear frame, and they are greased by the automatic lubrication system. It is managed by the vehicle control unit and greases the various sections of the truck only when required. If the grease reservoir is empty, the transmission is limited to first or second gear only to prevent damage to the major components such as the turning ring and the tandem bogeys.

Asset management Coming soon, Doosan will announce factory-fitted Doosan Telematics for its ADTs. With this valuable system, customers can check and receive daily reports on the productivity of their ADTs remotely including fuel efficiency, payload and cycle times. b

Six Practical Uses Of Machine Control Machine control on heavy equipment is often synonymous with road building and large site prep – but it’s not all about the long grade. Here are six machine control applications that can immediately help improve productivity and reduce rework in earthmoving applications.

1. Trenching at a specific depth using a 2D system: excavators, backhoes and compact excavators can all be outfitted with 2D and 3D machine control systems to assist in everything from mass excavation to precisely sloped trenches.

Sometimes, however, a trench only needs to be a certain depth below the contour of the land. An excavator with a 2D system in this application can benchmark against the ground it sits on. The operator can set the machine to cut at a depth of six feet, as an example, and the system will indicate to the

operator when the bucket has reached a depth of six feet. Then, the machine can back up, benchmark again against the new surface, and continue indicating to the operator when they’ve reached six feet in the new spot. The operator can repeat this for the entire length of the trench.

Advantage: easy to use and set up, consistent trench depth, eliminates time and energy associated with over-digging.

2. Spot-bulldozing to better prepare a site for grading: picture an untouched jobsite marked with random hills, piles and other terrain abnormalities. The dozer is equipped with a 3D system, but those inconsistencies present a challenge for the machine: by sticking to the plan, there is a risk that the dozer can be overloaded as it pushes into the piles of excessive material.

The operator will also not

want to risk removing too much of the material by eyeballing it manually (at the risk of undercutting and having to fill it back in). With machine control, the operator can benchmark the blade path at a higher level than originally intended. This allows the operator to pass over these problem areas and create a clean starting point to more accurately grade the site to its intended plan.

Advantage: easier on the dozer and operator, able to grade the entire site at an expedient pace.

3. Eliminating undercutting: not so much an application as a benefit related to number 2, and machine control in general. Undercutting occurs when too much material is removed from the site. The rework associated with undercutting doesn’t just create double the work (bringing more material in to bring the site back up to the

original plan), it actually requires triple the work in some applications where compaction is then required to bring the material to spec. The goal is to only move material once. The greatest benefit of machine control: getting the job done right the first time.

Advantage: eliminating rework, saving time and cost (fuel, labor, etc.).

4. Mass excavation: contractors don’t often connect precision with mass excavation applications – they’re often focused on just moving as much dirt as quickly as possible, and then worrying about the finished grade at a later date. But a machine control system equipped on an excavator can allow that operator to dig with full speed and confidence, and never over-excavate. By getting the terrain as close to the final grade as possible, it’s going to eliminate having to haul in more material in the future.

Advantage: increased productivity and reduced finishing work.

5. Better contouring jobsite edges to the sur-

rounding land: 3D systems outfitted on both dozers or graders can help contractors seamlessly connect the project to the contour of the ground surrounding it. Without machine control, a contractor may just simply cut and fill to the plan so that it leaves an irregular edge to the project but doesn’t integrate to the surrounding property.

This can impact landscape, drainage, sight lines, etc.

The machine control system can be set to extend the project to the existing surface to seamlessly transition to the rolling hills or slope already present.

Advantage: Better appearance and flow with surrounding properties.

6. Skid steers and compact track loaders for final grade work around obstacles: machine control isn’t just for the big boys. If you think about final grading, especially as you get close to buildings and other obstacles, larger bulldozers and graders can’t often do that work. Compact track loaders particularly – which provide significantly lower ground pressure than other

Trade mission To China Highlights Canadian Forest Industry Technology The Canadian forest industry is poised to benefit from a trade mission to China that added momentum to a strategic push to promote Canadian technology and forest products companies.

FPInnovations and three other Quebecbased organizations have signed a memorandum of understanding to participate in a feasibility study for the construction of a six-storey wood-frame building and a 12- to 15-storey research and testing tower out of wood or hybrid systems, to be built in Shanghai, China.

The MOU was signed on October 26 in Shanghai with China’s Shanghai Research Institute of Building Sciences Group (SRIBS) and Quebecbased companies FPInnovations, GIGABASE, Quebec Wood Export Bureau (QWEB), and Coarchitecture.

FPInnovations will provide scientific and

technical support on the design of medium to tall wood structures and application of the Quebec building code in China.

FPInnovations has been leading the way in providing better understanding and knowledge related to the performance of wooden and hybrid structural components and systems under various loads and environmental conditions.

The accord was signed during the weeklong trade mission that started on October 25, led by the premiers of Quebec, Ontario and Prince Edward Island. Quebec Premier Philippe Couillard was present at the signing, along with Quebec’s Minister of Economy, Innovation and Exports, Jacques Daoust.

The planned building is envisioned to be designed and constructed to be carbon neutral, aiming towards carbon negativity. The feasibility study aims to analyze

January 2015 machines – can get next to buildings and operate over underground utilities, etc. without causing too much disturbance. The agility of these more compact machines compared to their larger counterparts also offers significant productivity and accuracy benefits in tight spaces.

Another unique application for a compact track loader or skid steer would be a small project such as sportsfield construction and maintenance.

Advantage: Greater agility, responsiveness and accuracy in relatively confined spaces.

Your mission: think outside the box. Machine control technologies are becoming easier to operate and integrate across fleets every day. And with that comes increased ROI and a greater ability to positively affect the work you do.

Don’t think of it as a technology that’s only suitable for large bulldozers and motor graders – think of it as a transformative technology that will help you get onto the next job faster and more profitable. b the strategies to achieve this goal. The building will be constructed on the SRIBS campus in Xinzhuang, a town located in Shanghai’s Minhang District.

FPInnovations has been active in China for the past decade, with its Advanced Building Systems group significantly contributing to the development of the Chinese Timber Structural Design Building Code in 2004. It also has a long history of collaborating with partner university networks in Canada and overseas, including China’s Nanjing Forestry University, Tongji University and the Chinese Academy of Forestry.

FPInnovations’ international collaboration on research, codes and standards and participation on technical committees help the Canadian industry maintain markets and develop new ones for Canadian wood products by ensuring that building standards are consistent with Canadian products and building approaches, as well as promoting the use of Canadian-designed wood construction systems in world markets. b

students Test Forestry Knowledge at The 2014 Tree Bee 120 students recently gathered at the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) for the annual Tree Bee, a fun and friendly competition in which students in grades 4-6 test their knowledge of Ontario’s native tree species and forests. Over the course of the day, students worked in teams of three to identify native tree species based on images of key features and answer a series of questions on forestry.

Testing was based on a series of learning resources developed by Forests Ontario to assist teachers in bringing forestry into the classroom. Resources included fact-sheets, quizzes, and slideshows designed to guide students in identifying native tree species by features such as bark, leaves, seeds, and buds and develop a basic understanding of forests and forest management.

Tree Bee dates back to 1952, when it was first introduced by the Ontario Forestry Association (OFA) with the goal of encouraging elementary-aged students to appreciate the beauty, diversity, and importance of Ontario’s forests. Following the OFA’s merger with Trees Ontario in 2014, the newly formed Forests Ontario has carried on the Tree Bee tradition.

“Students have had an incredible enthusiasm for Tree Bee since the very beginning,” said Rob Keen, Forests Ontario CEO. “We’ve had students

participate one year and volunteer to coach at their own schools the following year. When students can get excited about our forests, especially at such a young age, we’re laying the foundation for a future generation that will value and support the health of our ecosystem.”

Dave Ireland, Managing Director of Biodiversity at the ROM, echoed Keen’s sentiments. “If we don’t teach children to value the world around them early on, they may never start.

That’s exactly what I love about Tree Bee,” Ireland remarked. “The ROM was more than happy to provide the winning teams with ROM memberships as a reward for their efforts and in hopes that students will join us at the ROM and continue nurturing their interest in the natural world.”

Forests Ontario would like to extend our gratitude to the ROM for hosting the 2014 Tree Bee and for their generosity in providing museum memberships to the winning Tree Bee team. We also wish to thank Toronto Field Naturalists for their support in making this year’s program possible. Finally, Forests Ontario wishes to thank and congratulate all the students who worked hard in the lead-up to the 2014 Tree Bee and brought such high levels of enthusiasm to this year’s competition. b

Atlas Copco Completes New Soil Roller Line Atlas Copco has introduced its CA1300 and CA1500 single-drum soil rollers for high maneuverability and visibility on parking lot, road, utility pipe and street projects.

The new CA1500 roller features Atlas Copco’s exclusive Active Bouncing Control (ABC), a crossmounted Tier 4 Interim or Tier 4 Final engine and steel blades that improve compaction, safety and visibility.

The engines on the CA1300 and CA1500 are cross-mounted, or placed perpendicular to the frames, which is an industry first. The rollers’

hydraulic pumps are also in line with the engine.

This allows users to reach all the necessary components on the engines and hydraulic pumps for fast and easy service and maintenance. And because the engines are cross-mounted rather than parallel to the frame, they provide optimal weight distribution and contribute to the units’ minimal footprint.

The CA1300 features a Tier 4 Final, 75-horsepower Kubota diesel engine, and the CA1500 uses a Tier IV Interim, 100-horsepower Cummins diesel engine.

vents that combine with the ejector exhaust outlet to minimize engine noise and prevent dust from being sucked into the engine compartment, which is a common occurrence on soil compaction sites.

The rollers’ high static linear loads make them ideal for compacting a range of materials, from clay to rock fill. The CA1300 features a static linear load of 73 pounds per linear inch (PLI), and the CA1500 has 112 PLI. The compaction power is transferred through the rollers’ drums to efficiently compact soil with minimal passes.

The CA1300’s 54-inch drum and the CA1500’s 66-inch drum give operators optimal visibility and allow them to maneuver into tight workspaces, such as pipe trenches or road shoulders. “With high visibility, operators can monitor the drums and keep an eye out for nearby workers,” said Vijayakumar Palanisamy, Atlas Copco Dynapac Product Marketing Manager. “This means operators don’t need to sacrifice productivity or safety when working on cramped worksites.”

Atlas Copco’s ABC system, an optional feature for the CA1500 through CA6500 models, prevents operators from over-compacting the soil, which can damage the rollers.

Once soil reaches its maximum density, further vibrations from the roller begin to travel back into the machines. This double jumping can crack drums and cause premature fatigue damage to the rollers’ frame, hitch and other structural components, which are expensive and time consuming to replace.

The optional ABC system helps protect the frame and drum by detecting double jumping as soon as it begins to occur and shutting off the roller’ vibration.

“We created our exclusive ABC system specifically to help contractors get the most life from their compactors by minimizing a main cause for roller repairs,” Palanisamy said.

“Without double jumping,

the equipment stays in the field longer; compaction is more efficient; and the ROIs are greater.”

The service alert systems and easy-access engines allow contractors to service and maintain the rollers on the worksite without taking them to a shop. The service interval alert in the instrumentation display indicates when and what type of maintenance is required.

Optional strike-off blades help the rollers’ consistency by removing oversized rocks and obstacles in front of the thick drum shells. The blades have an innovative, divided profile that efficiently pushes out rocks, which can break up compacted soils. All Atlas Copco pad foot rollers are fitted with heavy-duty drum scrapers to keep the drums clear of clay and mud to ensure consistent compaction.

For environmentally sensitive worksites, the rollers feature Atlas Copco’s ECO Mode, an rpmmanagement system. The system reduces fuel consumption as much as 20 percent by delivering to the rollers only the amount of power that is necessary to operate at any given time. It is standard on the CA1300 and is also included with the Antispin/ECO Traction Systems for the CA1500 through CA6500 models.

Atlas Copco’s speed limiter makes it easy for the operator to reach consistent speeds in the CA1500 through CA6500 models.

With a speed limiter setting, the operator sets the desired speed in the controls and pushes the joystick completely forward to quickly and accurately achieve the same compaction speed every time. b

mining Industry applauds New Extractive sector Trade strategy The Mining Association of Canada (MAC) commends the federal government on the recent announcement of the new Extractive Sector Trade Strategy to support Canadian mining companies operating abroad.

The announcement complements the release of the renewed Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Strategy, Doing Business the Canadian Way, announced by Minister Fast on November 14.

“Taken together, these two strategies send a welcome signal that Canada supports and promotes a strong and vibrant Canadian mining sector both at home and abroad. The Government of Canada is also setting a high bar for corporate responsibility performance, which our members embrace,” said Pierre Gratton, MAC’s President and CEO. The extractive sector strategy focuses on removing trade barriers through the negotiation of trade agreements, increasing the knowledge of the trade commissioner network to better connect Canadian companies with opportunities in other countries and more broadly positioning Canada as a partner of choice for Canadian direct investment abroad. The industry has supported the government’s efforts to increase trade commis-

sioners’ understanding of high-priority sectors, like mining, by embedding dedicated trade commissioners into industry associations. “As mining is both a complex and global sector, MAC has seen the benefits of this program as it provides a platform for trade commissioners to learn more about our industry and align government efforts to further enhance Canada’s strength in mining overseas,” said Gratton.

“The Harper government has negotiated and concluded free trade and foreign investment protection agreements at an unprecedented rate over the past eight years, positioning Canada’s globally-leading mining sector for success. The new strategy will add distinction to Canada’s mining brand and should send a clear signal to other mining countries to take note,” added Gratton.

When taken with the CSR strategy that sets expectations of companies to adhere to international standards regarding social and environmental practices and strengthens Canada’s international dispute resolution mechanisms such as the Extractive Sector CSR Counsellor and the OECD National Contact Point, Canada is wellpositioned as a global leader in the extractive sector. b

Front Page Story

Tier 4 And More John Deere Final Tier 4 Construction Class Dozers Boast More Power, Increased Fuel Efficiency, and New Electro-Hydraulic System The John Deere 750K and 850K Crawler Dozers not only meet Final Tier 4 emissions standards, but also incorporate valueenhancing features such as EcoMode and an updated Electro-Hydraulic (EH) control system. The K-Series crawlers provide contractors a Final Tier 4 product that affords higher productivity, increased uptime and lower daily operating costs in earth moving, waste, and grading applications.

“The new 750K and 850K crawlers are built on the success of their iT4 predecessors,” said Mark Oliver, Crawler Dozers Product Marketing Manager, John Deere Construction & Forestry. “While making updates to the engine, we also added some new features customers will appreciate. The electro-hydraulic system has been updated and the control logic of that system is brand new from John Deere. When the optional EH system is ordered, customer driven

features such as blade shake for PAT (PowerAngle-Tilt) configurations, improved blade response and rear auxiliary configurable settings will help customers become more productive. EH controls are now available for OSD (Outside Dozer) configurations which also enable the new optional Power Pitch feature.”

The 750K and 850K incorporate a PowerTech 6.8L Final Tier 4 diesel engine with 165 hp and 205 hp respectively. The 850K is the first John Deere dozer to feature EcoMode. EcoMode optimizes fuel economy while maintaining ground speed by automatically adjusting engine speed and transmission settings based on load. This new feature has the potential to save customers upwards of 20 percent in fuel with no loss in productivity in many applications.

Operators don’t have to worry about diesel particulate filter (DPF) cleaning as it still occurs automatically

with no impact to machine operation. Extensive testing allowed John Deere’s DPF to go up to 15,000 hours before ash removal.

Additionally, all models feature excellent total fluid economy (diesel fuel and DEF).

The new crawler models continue to utilize hydrostatic transmissions, a feature John Deere pioneered in crawler dozers in North America in 1976.

Updates were made to the electronic control system for improved response and controllability, increasing productivity and enhancing the operator experience.

Machine hydraulics were updated for improved performance and responses as well as offering optional electro-hydraulic controls for both the Power-AngleTilt and Outside Dozer blade configurations. A high flow hydraulic pump is now available for both pilot controls and the updated electro-hydraulic system. The EH system is more responsive to opera-

tor inputs and the machine will significantly grade better when equipped with a grade control system.

Another new feature that comes along with the new electro-hydraulic control system is a new color LCD display monitor. This new monitor provides enhanced onboard diagnostics with real time values for every temperature, pressure, and speed sensor on the machine. The crawler dozers constantly monitor transmission temperature to avoid damage to the hydrostat system.

When the 750K and 850K are ordered with the new electro-hydraulic controls, they are grade control ready to accept the grade control system of the customer’s choice. John Deere’s “open-architecture” design lets customers easily employ their favorite brand of grade-control system – Trimble, Topcon, or Leica. For Topcon customers, both models can be factory-installed with a Topcon 3D-MC2 grade control system for faster availability and the ability to finance the system with the dozer purchaser.

To keep operators up and running, both the 750K and 850K come equipped with John Deere’s exclusive V-Cool package. This system incorporates a cool on demand hydraulically driven fan that isolates coolers from dust and engine heat for increased efficiency and durability. In addition, the V-Cool is po-

EcoMode optimizes fuel economy while maintaining ground speed by automatically adjusting engine speed and transmission settings based on load. sitioned behind the heavyduty grille and fan, making the coolers less vulnerable to the rigors of the jobsite.

The coolers are also easily accessible for ground level service.

Operators looking to get the most out of their 750K/850K can rely on Ultimate Uptime featuring John Deere WorkSight.

With Ultimate Uptime, operators receive pre-delivery and follow-up inspections; three years of JD Link telematics, machine heath prognostics, and remote diagnostics and programming capability; and the ability to add additional dealer-provided uptime solutions to customize the package to individual needs.

New Doosan Wheel loaders Feature remote monitoring Doosan has introduced its first Tier 4-compliant wheel loaders — the DL300-5, DL350-5, DL4205, DL450-5 and DL550-5 — with a horsepower range of 271 hp in the DL300-5 to 379 hp in the DL550-5.

Improvements in fuel efficiency, operator comfort, serviceability, reliability and remote monitoring with Doosan Telematics are all features that make the new Doosan wheel loaders stand out from other brands.

Tier 4 solution The five new Doosan wheel loader models replace the previous interim Tier 4 (iT4) models and are powered by Scania diesel engines. The engines are optimized for use with a high-pressure common-rail (HPCR) fuel delivery system and a cooled exhaust gas recirculation (CEGR) system. They utilize a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) to reduce particulate matter (PM) and selective catalyst reduction (SCR) aftertreatment to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx) — the same technology used to achieve iT4 compliance in this size class. Additionally, the wheel loaders use a variety of aftertreatment systems as part of the Tier 4 compliance, such as diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), which is used with SCR technology and stored in a DEF tank.

Doosan added a mass airflow sensor and exhaust brake to its existing diesel technologies to help meet Tier 4 emission standards.

The mass airflow sensor allows the electronic control unit (ECU) to improve the management of airflow from the variable geometry turbocharger (VGT), and to optimize fuel delivery to the combustion chamber based on engine air intake volume and rpm. The VGT is utilized to enhance boost pressure throughout a wide rpm range of the engine, resulting in improved fuel efficiency at lower rpms.

This also generates higher torque levels and faster engine response even at low rpm. The exhaust brake helps to maintain consistent engine temperatures at lower engine speeds to improve operating efficiency.

Consistent engine temperatures reduce harmful emission levels in the exhaust when the engine is running at lower rpms. Under normal operation, with high rpms, the exhaust brake is inactive.

New wheel loader features New Doosan wheel loaders feature cab enhancements including an improved adjustable steering column to provide more leg room, ease of operation and more floor space. Also inside the cab, a new fuel consumption gauge informs operators how much fuel the machine is using in real time. Updates to the keypad on the dashboard make it easier for operators to review, adjust settings and to clean and maintain it. Overall, visibility within the cab and around the machine has been improved

! t e g r o F Don’t e Next Th ne is i l d a e D Ad 015 Jan. 16, 2 5:00 pm

too.

All five new Doosan wheel loaders have an auto-shutdown system to help reduce fuel consumption when the machine is sitting idle. Operators can configure the idle time from 3 to 60 minutes. When enabled, the feature will shut down the excavator’s engine when the preset idle time is met. This is particularly helpful in California where state regulations require idling for only 5 minutes for off-highway machines.

Rear LED lamps provide better visibility, especially when working on a jobsite at night. Limited slip differentials are also included and allow the machines to have more traction when working.

Updates to improve serviceability include a new air cleaner with longer replacement intervals. Additional oil sampling ports improve predictive maintenance procedures and various fluid pressures are now viewable via the dash panel, allowing monitoring from the cab. Available as a factory-installed option, an auto-greasing system replaces daily greasing and helps to extend bearing bushing life. The optional auto-greasing system will grease the correct amount and when it’s needed to avoid over-greasing and under-greasing, which represents a considerable time savings for fleet owners and rental companies.

For applications in mining and infrastructure market segments, Doosan offers a high-lift configuration for all five new wheel loaders, providing additional dump height. Added dump height is particularly useful for operators who regularly load trucks and need additional lift height to efficiently dump material into the truck.

Options for the DL3005 through DL450-5 wheel loaders include the following: • Hydraulic locking front and conventional rear differential, • Axle oil cooler (DL420-5 and larger), • Emergency steer, • Electric joystick steering

Page 13 The five new Doosan wheel loader models replace the previous interim Tier 4 (iT4) models and are powered by Scania diesel engines.

• Rotating beacon • Rubber fender protectors and full fender with rubber protector The DL550-5 includes all the same options as the DL300-5 through DL4505, except for the hydraulic locking front and conventional rear differential, which are standard equipment.

Selectable work modes The DL300-5 through DL550-5 wheel loaders feature three selectable work modes — Economy, Standard and Power — to better balance fuel consumption and machine power to the working conditions.

Economy mode: reduces fuel consumption for low-demand applications and slows down machine movement for conditions that require extra precision Standard power mode: balances the wheel loader’s fuel consumption for everyday digging, grading and lifting tasks Power mode: provides superior power and performance for tough digging conditions and truck loading tasks Doosan Telematics Doosan wheel loaders come with a standard 3-year subscription to Doosan Telematics, which

allows equipment owners and fleet managers to remotely monitor machine location, hours, fuel usage, engine idle versus work time, error codes and engine as well as hydraulic temperatures.

Machines can be monitored via an online Doosan Telematics account. In addition, Doosan dealers can provide improved customer support using the system by responding to machine warning messages and alerts, by troubleshooting machine issues, and then sending a field service vehicle to help with repairs and the proper parts. b

Wacker Neuson Begins Loader Production In The U.S. The Wacker Neuson Group is building a production line for skid steer and compact track loaders at its U.S. facility in Menomonee Falls, Wisc. The facility will go on stream in the first quarter of 2015, initially manufacturing four models. The U.S. is the largest market for skid steer loaders. “Our strategy is ‘in the region for the region,’ so it makes sense for us to build skid steer loaders in the region where demand is strongest – North America,” explained Cem Peksaglam, CEO of Wacker Neuson SE. “We unveiled four loader models tailored to the needs of the North American market at the start of the year and received positive feedback from dealers and customers alike. Producing these products in North America will speed up time-to-market and enable us to adapt these high-quality, power-

DEERE CONSTRUCTION Parts & Components

ful machines more rapidly to the specific customer requirements of this core market.”

“We took feedback from contractors and users in the region who regularly work with these machines, and channeled these insights into the development of our new skid steer loaders. Our dealers and customers were quickly won over by the high-quality components as well as the new, even more user-friendly cab and powerful performance capabilities of our skid steer loaders,” said Christopher Barnard, regional president of Wacker Neuson in North America.

“The new skid steer loader series rounds off our portfolio of compact machines in North America, making us an even more attractive partner for dealers.”

The four models will initially only be distrib-

uted via the US and Canadian dealer network.

With a presence in the United States since 1957, the Wacker Neuson facility in Menomonee Falls near Milwaukee was built in 1986 and recently again expanded in 2012. Covering an area of 260,000 square meters, the site is home to the Wacker Neuson Corporation headquarters and its research and development departments. The company also produces trowels for the concrete technology business field here as well as rammers, rollers and trench rollers for the compaction business field and generators and pumps for the worksite technology field.

From 2015 on, Menomonee Falls will also be producing the skid steer loaders SW24 and SW28 with payloads of 2,400 and 2,800 pounds respectively (around 1.1 and 1.4 tons)

Concurrently, a local development team is working on further models to broaden the line.

Up until now, Wacker Neuson produced skid steer loaders at its Hörsching site in Austria. “Demand for our dumpers and excavators is growing worldwide. We will be using the free capacity at Hörsching from 2015 on to expand our dumper and excava-
