B.C. Businesses Embrace Clean Car Infrastructure British Columbia businesses, non-profit groups and local governments are saying yes to clean transportation by investing in another 145 electric-vehicle charging stations throughout the province. The B.C. government is assisting with a second round of funding to help organizations purchase and install Level 2 (240-volt) charging stations in various communities.

The newly funded stations will be distributed throughout the province in communities like Kamloops, Prince George, Houston, Fernie and Richmond. More than 60 per cent of the charging stations in this round are being installed by businesses, an indicator that electric vehicles are moving into the mainstream, and B.C. companies recognize the value in providing their customers with the ability to charge their cars.

The 145 new stations are being installed by 41 different organizations.

For example, Gibsons Recycling Depot is receiving funding for two Level

2 charging stations. As a small business centrally located in Upper Gibsons, the company will be making the stations available to the public seven days a week. Gibsons Recycling Depot is also adding electric vehicles to its fleet to service its community curbside recycling and collection program.

The funding is part of the $2.7-million Community Charging Infrastructure (CCI) Fund announced in April by Environment Minister Terry Lake. As with the previous round of CCI funding announced in September, approval is for 75 per cent of the cost of purchasing and installing charging stations, up to $4,000 per station. Combined with the chargingstation funding previously announced, this brings the total number of CCI Fund-supported charging stations in the province to 418.

The locations of up to an additional 152 charging stations will be made available later this month – bringing the total number of stations being installed under the CCI Fund to 570. These charg-

ing stations are part of a planning grant process in which 12 local and regional governments were awarded funding to allow them to prioritize and plan for charging-station deployments in their respective jurisdictions.

The CCI Fund is managed, administered and promoted by the Fraser Basin Council. The purpose of the fund is to support a network of charging stations province wide.

All stations must be installed by March 31, 2013.

The Community Charging Infrastructure Fund is part of the B.C. government’s $14.3-million Clean Energy Vehicle Program, which includes the CEVforBC Point of Sale Incentive Program and the LiveSmart BC Residential Charging Point Rebate Program.

The CEVforBC program provides B.C. residents with up to $5,000 off the pre-tax sticker price for qualifying new battery electric, fuel-cell electric, plug-in hybrid electric and compressed natural gas vehicles until March 31, 2013.

The LiveSmart BC Residential Charging Point Rebate Program provides rebates of up to $500 per unit for residential electric charging stations that meet identified eligibility requirements until March 31, 2013. b

Bobcat Announces Non-DPF Tier 4 Engine Offering Bobcat Company has announced a plan for Tier 4 solutions that include a Doosan-built engine added to some of its equipment lineup for 2014. Development of the new Tier 4-compliant engine was a collaboration between Bobcat, Doosan, and some of the world’s top engineering consultants and engine design firms — Ricardo, FEV and others.

“These new Tier 4 solutions combine Doosan’s 50 years of engine-building experience with Bobcat’s 50 years of compact equipment leadership,” said Rich Goldsbury, Bobcat President.

“Add to that the combined experience of our other partners, and you have more than 200 years of experience in engine design and development and compact equipment expertise.”

The Doosan-built engine is a non-DPF (diesel particulate filter) engine.

Bobcat engineers have worked together with Doosan and the engineering consultants and engine design firms to develop these engines that offer non-DPF Tier 4 technology.

“With these additional engines, Bobcat will be a market leader in non-DPF Tier 4 technology,” Golds-

bury said. “Our customers and dealers prefer it, and it minimizes long-term Tier 4 parts and maintenance expenses.”

Doosan — Bobcat’s parent company — started building engines in 1958, and since then has developed engines across several industries for construction and industrial equipment, power plants, ships and automobiles.

The new Tier 4 Doosan engines will be available in Bobcat machines that meet Tier 4 horsepower requirement ranges sometime in early 2014.

Over the next 18 months, Bobcat plans to release more details on the Bobcat Tier 4 machines and their engines, along with additional and features and solutions that will benefit customers. b

Terex Utilities Takes Top Honours in Humantech’s Find It-Fix It Challenge Humantech, Inc. announced Terex Utilities, a division of Terex Aerial Work Platforms (AWP) as the winner of its sixth annual Find It – Fix It Challenge during a live webinar Friday. The Find It – Fix It Challenge recognizes and rewards simple and effective workplace solutions that increase productivity, improve worker morale, and reduce workplace injuries and illnesses.

Honourable mentions for the Challenge were given to the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, located in San Angelo, Texas, and to Senior Aerospace Metal Bellows, located in Sharon, Mass. The contest was derived from Humantech’s RAPID Team Events, which are based on the concept of making quick, simple, visible changes to improve ergonomic issues in the workplace. From over 150 entries received, representing 24 companies, one winner was selected and two honorable mentions were recognized.

Terex Utilities in Huron, S.D., took top honors with its Pedestal Weld Station entry. The improvement focused on improving the posture and comfort of the worker responsible for welding a vertical gusset and top plate to the metal

shell of a pedestal. The pedestal connects a boom to a truck chassis and also houses the bearing that enables the boom to rotate while in operation. From digger derrick units used to set power poles to aerial devices with working heights of 125 feet, Terex fabricates large to small pedestals for its full line of utility equipment.

Prior to improving the task at the pedestal weld station, the worker had to climb in and out of a metal shell up to eight times per unit. While lying in a horizontal position, with legs dangling outside the pedestal, the worker had to weld parts of the pedestal together. When one section was complete, the welder would get out of the pedestal, rotate the pedestal to the next weld position, climb back into the unit, and weld the next section.

Due to high air temperatures inside the pedestal, the welder had to lie on blankets for extra protection in addition to wearing welding leathers. A total of eight pedestals were fabricated each day using this process.

Because of the high temperatures and contact stress on the legs, the team knew it had to change the job. The improvement idea came from Jereme Kempf.

“We had strong internal support from the entire team. This was a good example of designing for safety and manufacturability,” said Bethany Kovash, Industrial Engineer.

Within a few weeks, the idea to improve the job, and the funds required to make the necessary modifications, were approved. With a $300 budget, the team engineered and fabricated a steel welding table to hold the pedestal in a vertical position. The team member can now perform the work in a seated position, eliminating what Humantech calls “Butts Up” postures and contact stress.

The cycle time was also reduced by 20 minutes. In addition, the design engineering department redesigned the pedestal to eliminate the vertical gusset weld to a plug weld on the outside of the pedestal.

“Everyone likes the improved task, and the pro-

January 2013 duction team member’s involvement was crucial to its success,” said Matt Klein, Manufacturing Engineer. The compliance of all team members tasked with this job proves its success.

The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company received an honorable mention with its Outdoor Resiliometer (ODR) Controls entry.

Prior to the improvement, the operator had to bend down to floor level to check or adjust the ODR controls. By simply raising the height of the ODR control panel, operators are now able to stand in a neutral posture to read the controls. The BEST assessment score was reduced from a medium job hazard score of 22.4 to a low job hazard score of 8. The improvement cost only $300.

Senior Aerospace Metal Bellows division also received an honorable mention with its Hand Welding Workstation entry. Initially, the operator had to move a 150-pound chuck turntable from a cart to the floor and then push the turntable across the floor to another location. When properly placed, the operator loaded a work piece into the chuck turntable.

The recommended weight limit for this task, per the NIOSH Lifting Equation, is 39.1 pounds, with a Lifting Index of 3.84. Reengineering the work bench to accommodate a permanently mounted chuck turntable underneath it not only eliminated the bent neck, flexed back, and squatting postures required to move the fixture, but also eliminated all lifting, pushing, and pulling movements from the task, resulting in a Lifting Index of 0. b

PEMEX E&P And BP Announce Well Cap Agreement

PULVERIZE it in 2013

with Van-Ed’s line of Crushers & Shears

Petroleos Mexicanos Exploration and Production (PEMEX E&P) and BP recently announced an agreement for BP to share the technical information it used to build its global deepwater well-capping equipment.

Under the Technology License Agreement, BP will make available technical information that PEMEX E&P, one of four subsidiaries of PEMEX, can use, in addition to PEMEX E&P initiatives already in place, if it decides to build and maintain its own well capping system for use in Mexican waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

In addition, BP has agreed to conduct workshops in Houston to brief PEMEX E&P on the technical information and operational aspects of the system, as well as to introduce PEMEX E&P specialists to key vendors and fabricators that BP used to develop its global deepwater well cap and tooling package.

“The agreement marks another step forward in PEMEX E&P’s ongoing efforts to help protect the rich Gulf of Mexico environment in which we operate, as well as to apply state-of-the-art technology as we develop

Mexico’s deepwater oil and natural gas resources,” said Carlos Morales, President of PEMEX Exploration and Production.

Richard Morrison, BP’s Head of Global Deepwater Response, said the agreement underscores BP’s commitment to sharing lessons learned during and following the 2010 Deepwater Horizon accident and response.

“Today’s announcement builds on our commitment and the work we have done — and continue to do — to help advance global deepwater response capabilities around the world,” he said.

“We are pleased to provide PEMEX E&P with access to our recent technological innovation and information so that operators in both the USA and Mexico areas of the Gulf of Mexico can be equipped to respond to a subsea well control incident in the Gulf of Mexico.”

BP’s global deepwater well cap is a 100-ton stack of valves that can be lowered onto a leaking well to halt the flow. The system can operate in 10,000 feet of water and is rated to pressures of 15,000 pounds per square inch. Stored in

Houston, it can be sent by heavy-lift aircraft to any country where BP operates in a matter of days.

Under the Technology License Agreement, BP will share at no cost to PEMEX E&P technical information on BP’s capping stack, and PEMEX E&P has agreed to make any future advancements to this well-capping technology available at no cost to BP. BP will retain intellectual property rights, so it can continue to share the plans with others.

BP, which has had a presence in Mexico for around 50 years, has collaborated with PEMEX E&P through a variety of non-commercial technology, scientific and training mutual cooperation agreements over the last decade.

Those have resulted in hundreds of workshops, seminars and exchanges to share best practices and technological expertise. b

CCA’s New Federal Skilled Trades Program The Canadian Construction Association was pleased to hear the recent announcement that the new Federal Skilled Trades Program is being launched on January 2, 2013. This new program will build the foundation to address labour shortages in the Canadian construction industry, while supporting increased growth for the Canadian economy.

“The introduction of a dedicated and streamlined program for skilled trades addresses many of the shortcomings from the current Federal Skilled Worker Program,” said Michael Atkinson, president of the Canadian Construction Association. “The new program ensures greater consideration is given to the needs of industry when processing eligible immigration applications.”

The current Federal Skilled Worker Program is not well oriented to the

UNBEATABLE PERFORMANCE. UNBEATABLE PRICE.

needs of trades and industry, placing significant emphasis on post-secondary education, and high proficiency levels in Canada’s official languages. Under the new program, the old 100-point system is being scrapped in favour of four basic criteria, which give much more weight to practical training, work experience, basic proficiency in English or French, and the level of demand for a specific trade.

Current projections from the Construction Sector Council indicate that the Canadian construction industry will need 320,000 new workers by 2020.

This, coupled with projected growth for the Canadian construction industry, is putting increased strain on industry.

While skilled training in Canada has remained very important, the domestic population growth will not provide an adequate supply

of labour to fulfill industry needs. The Canadian Construction Association has long supported the need for a flexible immigration system as a means to address these labour shortages, and help support overall economic competitiveness.

The announcement is another example in a series of positive steps undertaken by Citizenship and Immigration Canada to build a more efficient immigration system; a system that meets the needs of not just the Canadian construction industry, but the needs of Canada as it relates to a healthy and vibrant Canadian economy.

“These new measures, together with earlier announced changes, including the move to an Expression of Interest system by 2014 for the immigration process, promise to make Canada’s permanent immigration system much more responsive to the needs of Canadian employers,” Atkinson continued. “We look forward to continuing to work with the Government of Canada as it builds a fast, flexible, and efficient immigration system to support the Canadian economy.” b

KaMin Announces Price Increase For Kaolin Clays KaMin LLC recently announced that it will increase prices for kaolin clay products for the global paper industry 4-6% effective January 1, 2013, or as contracts allow.

"This price increase is necessary in order to recover cost increases we have experienced in transportation as well as manufacturing, where we have seen escalation in mining, packaging and chemicals," stated Warren McPhillips, Vice President of Commercial.

“KaMin continues to work diligently on productivity projects and to manage our cost base to offset these in-

flationary pressures. However, these increases are necessary to recover these additional costs, and to enable us to meet our commitment to create the greatest long term value for our paper customers through continued investments in people and technology.

KaMin LLC also announces that its 2013 energy surcharge policy, effective January 1, 2013 will remain unchanged from the KaMin 2012 energy surcharge policy. The threshold of $6/MMBTU and incremental surcharges by product type will re-

main the same. This policy applies to all slurry, spraydried hydrous and calcined kaolin grades sold to the paper industry globally.

KaMin LLC is a manufacturer of high quality hydrous and calcined kaolin. With more than 70 years of experience, KaMin's reserves and proprietary processing technologies produce high quality kaolins for a variety of applications.

KaMin mines and produces its kaolin exclusively in the US and sells its products to all regions of the world. KaMin operates three kaolin plants -- Macon, Sandersville and Wrens -- and has been recognized not only as a leader in product quality but also in its safe mining practices for many consecutive years. b

Sustainable Recycled Water Source Secured For Milestone Potash Project Western Potash Corp.

(WPX: TSX) (FSE: AHE) (“the Company”) is pleased to announce that, further to its press release dated June 26, 2012, a Definitive Agreement with the City of Regina was signed on November 26th securing the long term, economical and reliable source of process water for the Milestone Potash Project (“the Project”). Under the agreement, the Company will have access to 60,000 cubic metres per day of treated effluent for the first 6 years, and 42,240 cubic metres for the remaining 39 years. This amount is sufficient to satisfy the requirements for the solution mining process during the entire life of the mine.

As part of the execution of the Agreement, Western paid the City of Regina a $500,000.00 Commitment Fee. Annual payments to the City of Regina will be worth more than $200 million throughout the Agreement’s term. The Company will fund the construction of the pipeline and associated infrastructure to deliv-

er the effluent to the mine site located approximately 30km southeast of Regina.

The diversion of effluent from southern Saskatchewan’s watershed will produce a net environmental benefit, while creating economic growth for the Province, making this partnership a true “win-win” for both parties.

“This mutually beneficial agreement is another step towards Regina’s vision of a sustainable community,” said Regina Mayor Michael Fougere.

“The City of Regina will be compensated for treating a waste product while helping facilitate economic growth in one of Saskatchewan’s key sectors – potash development. In addition, downstream negative effects such as increased algae will also be alleviated, making this is a prime example how creative thinking and partnerships can yield a more promising future for everyone.”

“Executing the Definitive Agreement with the City of Regina is a critical

deliverable in progressing the Milestone Project,” says Western Potash Corp.

President and CEO Patricio Varas. “Securing a long term, reliable water supply is a key component of the Feasibility Study and crucial to advancing the project on schedule.”

The Milestone Feasibility Study is now drawing to a close. In addition, Western Potash Corp. remains involved in ongoing negotiations with numerous parties, any of which could lead to equity and debt financings, joint ventures, takeovers or other types of merger transactions to advance the development of the Milestone project. b

Holcim Canada Celebrates Over 3500 Acts Of Employee Volunteerism Holcim (Canada) Inc., a leading supplier of building materials and construction services, celebrates the success of its Together for Communities (TFC) employee volunteer initiative through a series of special photo exhibition events documenting the year-long initiative. As part of a larger global movement in honour of parent company Holcim Ltd’s centennial in 2012, the initiative encouraged all 3000 Holcim Canada employees to give back to the communities where they live and work.

Throughout the year, employees captured images of their volunteer acts, the engaging results of which form the content of the photo exhibitions, culminating in a special event to coincide with International Volunteer Day 2012.

Recently, in Montreal, Quebec, employees from Holcim Canada operations in Quebec and the Atlantic Provinces, including Demix Agrégats, Demix Béton and Demix Construction, attend-

ed a private reception at La TOHU Performance Centre.

On display were images taken by Holcim Canada employees of their experiences participating in the Together for Communities initiative. The internationallyacclaimed Voxapella Choir - volunteers themselves – also gave a performance.

In addition to community stakeholders, the event was attended by executive and senior Holcim Canada management, as they honoured employees of the company that contributed to the initiative. Over the course of the year, Holcim’s Quebec and Atlantic region engaged with over 90 different organizations, which benefited from the TFC initiative.

Nancy Gagnon, Manager of Maison Jacques Ferron, a shelter for people with serious mental health difficulties, said, “We are very lucky and spoiled to benefit from the extraordinary generosity and precious help of Holcim Canada’s employees. With the Together for

Communities initiative this year, Holcim Canada employees have volunteered for more than 1000 hours to help us renovate the center.

We are really thankful.”

Holcim Canada and its Ontario divisions, Dufferin Aggregates, Dufferin Concrete and Dufferin Construction, along with employees, local business partners, elected officials and other community stakeholders attended a special reception at the Holcim Gallery, Milton Centre for the Arts, on November 29. The event was the culmination of a three day public photo exhibit held in honour of contributions from employees, their family and friends to the Together for Communities initiative that featured scenes from over 3500 Holcim Canada employee volunteer acts. In attendance were several of the community organizations and municipalities that supported and benefited from the TFC initiative.

“It is extremely important

to have committed partners in the community—the kind that you can count on to pitch in for a local Habitat for Humanity build, join volunteer committees, support local families in need,” said Stewart Hardacre, President and CEO, Habitat for Humanity Canada. “By adding volunteerism to their corporate giving program, Holcim Canada is providing its employees and partners in the Together for Communities initiative a very personal experience - a chance to see first-hand the value of their contributions and the difference it can make.”

“I am extremely proud of the efforts of our employees, to give of their time, and for being committed to giving back to the communities where we operate. I want to thank our various partners in the community who supported this initiative and helped us achieve such great things this year and look forward to continuing to work with them for many years to come, to find even more ways that we can contribute to building healthy, vibrant and liveable communities,” said Paul Ostrander, President & CEO, Holcim Canada. b

JDN Hoists Provide 200 Ton Handling Capacity On Offshore Rig Four J D Neuhaus type EH50 air operated monorail hoists have been supplied and mounted by Westcon Løfteteknikk AS of Bergen to the Maersk offshore rig Guardian. These products have been specified for the synchronized lifting and handling of an 18.3/4” 15,000psi BOP unit before and after drilling operations. Two hoists are each mounted on twin parallel overhead rails, with each hoist providing 50 ton load and 20 meter lift capacities for between deck operations. Removable connector bars have also been supplied for fitting between paired hoists on the individual rails to maintain a fixed working distance of 4060mm between the load hook centers. With the two sets of hoists operating together, a combined lift capacity of 200 tons is made available. The minimum horizontal travel distance of the trolleys with the connector bars fitted is 14.81 meters. The maxi-

mum available free travel without the connector bars in place is 18 meters, with the travel distance limited by pneumatic end switches mounted on the hoist trolleys.

Synchronized operation of all linear movement and lifting operations of individual, paired or all the four hoists when used in conjunction, is provided with the F type multifunction pendant controllers also supplied by JDN. These tough, ergonomically designed controllers are suitable for the outdoor, heavy-duty operations that can be experienced offshore. A main air emergency stop together with load monitoring device is incorporated in the controllers.

The two overhead beams are 23 meters in length and also carry twin energy chain power supplies, with each power chain comprising two x 1” diameter air supply hoses.

A complete offshore documentation package

was supplied together with all hoists having JDN’s full protection kit for offshore corrosion protection which includes: • Exposed components including valves, valve heads and all bolts and nuts smaller than 12mm are manufactured from stainless steel, • Trolley wheel bearings and threaded bolt ends and nuts fitted with grease packed covers, • Hoists fitted with specialdesign galvanized chain containers with stainless steel suspension chains,

• Hoists finished with a JDN four layer marine paint, top coat in traffic yellow RAL1023, providing a total dry thickness of minimum 280 microns.

The hoists provided are part of a range of wellproven JDN monorail hoists with individual lift capacities from 10 to 115 tons. All these products are fully ATEX rated and have been designed for BOP handling operations, providing reliable, robust and efficient performance on land as well as on jack-up and semi-submersible drill-

ing platforms. They feature a compact design with low installation heights with ultra-low headroom options also available. They are ideally suited for working in hazardous areas and the drives are hermetically sealed-off from the environment. They incorporate integrated overload protection with a fully enclosed, robust gear motors and extremely low noise emissions and with optional air or hydraulic hoist operation.

Optional features in the range include:

• Rack and pinion drives, • Delta-P overload protection, • Load monitoring, • Air, hydraulic, radio or electrical remote controls, • Articulated trolley for limited side pulling, • Cryogenic version for temperatures down to -45°C, • Custom designs available to suit special requirements.

Comansa Jie Succeeds In Shanghai This year’s Bauma China, Asia’s most important trade show for construction machinery, has been the most successful edition so far. Not only the organizers, but most of the exhibitors, are very satisfied with the large amount and quality of the visitors that arrived to Shanghai, and Linden Comansa Chinese subsidiary COMANSA JIE is not an exception.

The best example of such success is the large number of orders that received COMANSA JIE, to a total amount of 8 million US dollars (around 6 million Euro). Dealers from India, Australia, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines and other nearby countries visited COMANSA JIE’s booth. So did distributors from Russia, Panama, Turkey or Egypt, which proves the growing strength of this trade show out of the influence area. COMANSA JIE also proved itself when it received many visitors from other Southeast Asian

countries approaching for new agency.

COMANSA JIE exhibited one 21 CJ 400 FlatTop tower crane with maximum load capacity of 18 tonnes. It was erected with its maximum jib length (80 meters) and freestanding height of 65.8 meters, which allowed it to be seen from all the outdoor exhibition area. This tower crane can load up to 3,000 kilos at the jib end and 18,000 kilos at 16.6 meters.

The modularity of mast sections allows this crane to achieve freestanding heights of up to 95 meters. It can be erected with DJ23 mast sections, which are 2-meter-wide and especially useful for congested jobsites at standard heights and when internal climbing is needed. And it can also use SJ35 mast sections, which are half a meter wider, and more recommended for high rise construction and jobsites where external climbing is

January 2013 necessary.

But what really captivated all visitors was the 110 kW winch exhibited at the booth, which can reach maximum speeds of 178 meters per minute.

Its’ spectacular drum, with capacity for 1450 meters of wire, drew everybody’s attention. This winch is available as an option for the 21 CJ 550 24t, COMANSA JIE’s biggest tower crane to date, and is very useful for high rise construction due to both speed and wire capacity. b

AC16: Tigercat Develops Articulating Loader Carrier Observing a void in the marketplace as equipment manufacturers have for the most part stopped producing and supporting steering axle equipped self-propelled loaders for mill yard applications, Tigercat has stepped up with the newly designed AC16 articulating carrier. The AC16 can be mated to a Tigercat 234 or 250 series knuckleboom loader.

The prototype unit was purchased by Verso Paper Corp and is operating in a wood yard in Dover-Foxcroft, Maine. Verso produces high quality coated papers and specialty products with operations in Maine and Michigan.

Yard Supervisor Kent Burden explains that Verso bought the AC16 carrier along with the 250C loader to replace Tanguay and Prentice self-propelled loaders with front axle steering. “They are extremely expensive and parts are becoming difficult to find to keep the machines in service,” says

plications.

The new DS800SL-3 is a fully digital design; it features a built-in I2C serial bus interface and uses the industrystandard PMBus™ communications protocol.

Developed primarily for systems employing distributed power architectures, the power supply has a wide input voltage range of 90 to 264 Vac and is rated for 800 watts output power. The main 12 Vdc payload output is programmable by plus/ minus 10 percent, and can deliver up to 65.7 A continuously. An auxiliary ‘always on’ 5 Vdc output, rated at 2.4 A, is also provided for powering server management circuits. Both outputs are tightly regulated, have no minimum load requirement, and offer remote sensing – the 12 Vdc output can compensate for a load bus drop of up to 200 mV. Opposite-end ac input and dc outputs facilitate fast replacement in the field, and the dc output card edge connector is compatible with the Intel® standard for high availability power supplies for the al-

ways-on enterprise market.

The power supply features built-in Oring and active load sharing facilities, and supports hot swap operation for fault tolerant and N+1 redundancy applications, allowing as many as six power supplies to be connected in parallel. Up to four DS800SL-3 power supplies can be programmed to share current from their 12 Vdc outputs; if each power supply is delivering 40-50 percent of its rated output to the load, current will be shared to an accuracy of 5 percent, simplifying users’ implementation of high availability power schemes significantly.

The power supplies have an operating temperature range of -10 to 50 degrees Celsius with no derating, and feature a built-in

cooling fan with automatic speed control; forward and reversed airflow versions are available to simplify integration with the rack’s cooling layout.

The power supplies are comprehensively protected against fault conditions, including input undervoltage, output short-circuit, overload and overvoltage.

The power factor correction and output converter stages are both monitored for overtemperature conditions, and correct operation of the fan is also checked.

DS800SL-3 power supplies have a demonstrated mean time between failure (MTBF) of 100,000 hours, running at full load and 25 degrees Celsius ambient, and are backed by a comprehensive two year warranty. b

Case Partners 50th Annual Snowmobile Championship Case Construction Equipment recently said that it will again be a sponsor of the AMSOIL World Championship Snowmobile Derby in Eagle River, Wis., which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. The annual event is scheduled for Jan. 17 – 20, 2013. As part of the sponsorship, Case will provide skid steers, compact track loaders and a wheel loader to support the derby and facility in various chores, such as building the snow course, cleaning the ice course between races and moving equipment and materials.

“Case is excited to sponsor this important snowmobile competition for the second time,” said Russ Wadzinski, General Manager of the Case Tomahawk Customer Center in Tomahawk, Wis. “We are especially pleased to be supporting this legendary championship in its 50th anniversary year. Case celebrated 170 years in busi-

ness in 2012, so we feel a special appreciation for the track’s heritage and associating our brand with the very best in snowmobile racing.”

The Case Tomahawk Customer Center provides personalized equipment training, state-of-the-art product demonstrations and hands-on equipment operation to help Case customers make informed buying, operating and maintenance decisions.

More than 2,000 guests visit the center each year.

“As part of our sponsorship, Case customers visiting the Tomahawk Customer Center have a unique opportunity to visit the snowmobile capital of the world in Eagle River during their stay in the North Woods,” said Wadzinski, who is an Eagle River-class champion racer himself.

Case equipment deployed to the event will include a Case 721F wheel loader with a 3.5 yd3 bucket, Case TV380 and TV320

Page 23

compact track loaders with snow brooms, Case SV300 and SR220 skid steers equipped with snow brooms, and a Case SR175 skid steer with bucket and pallet forks.

AUC Approves Western Alberta Transmission Line Alberta’s independent utilities regulator has approved the Western Alberta Transmission Line (WATL), with several route or tower options chosen to minimize landowner and agricultural impacts. In addition, more than 60 per cent of the approved route parallels existing lines, minimizing the project’s visual and environmental effects and disturbance of land.

In Decision 2012-327, released recently, the Alberta Utilities Commission approved the application from AltaLink Management Ltd. for the proposed 500-kilovolt, direct-current transmission line with associated converter stations and equipment that would extend approximately 350 km from Genesee, west of Edmonton to the Langdon area east of Calgary.

The need for the line was specified by the Alberta government as critical transmission infrastruc-

ture in 2009 in the Electric Statutes Amendment Act. The capital cost of the project was estimated

by AltaLink to be approximately $1.5 billion.

The AUC approved portions of the WATL route preferred by the applicant and in several cases alternatives developed from landowner suggestions and then submitted by the applicant. Overall, based on land use, social, cost and environmental considerations the route approved by the AUC was found to be both in the public interest and superior to other potential routes.

Among the most substantial deviations from the applicant’s preferred routing the AUC approved is a 37-km stretch known as the Crossfield Tie option. “The Commission finds the agricultural and visual impacts favour the Crossfield Tie option and the environmental and cost considerations slight-

ly favour the Crossfield Tie option,“ the AUC stated in its decision. “The Commission ...finds that the Crossfield Tie option is preferable to the preferred route.”

The AUC has also directed the applicant to use less obtrusive monopole structures in a 12-km stretch east of Gleniffer Reservoir, make a minor adjustment to the route near where it would cross Hwy. 2 north of Crossfield and has directed AltaLink to investigate a further routing adjustment over a 3.2-km stretch in that area. A further refinement to the approved route where it crosses Hwy. 2 could also occur.

As is evident in Section 5 of the written decision, in this proceeding the AUC spent substantial time and energy considering in depth a motion brought before it arguing that the proposed WATL project represented an interprovincial or international work or undertaking and should therefore be outside the jurisdiction of the AUC. The motion was dismissed, with the AUC stating within its

January 2013 analysis that “seeing that its start and end points are in Alberta and that the proposed transmission line, if approved, will be part of the Alberta Interconnected Electric System, the Commission finds that the proposed Western Alberta Transmission Line is a local work...The Commission is of the view that the proposed Western Alberta Transmission Line and associated substations are works entirely within Alberta and are prima facie within provincial jurisdiction.”

In the course of this proceeding the AUC held nine information sessions in multiple communities along the preferred and alternate routes, and conducted 24 days of public oral hearing in Red Deer beginning June 11, 2012, along with five community hearing sessions in communities that included Red Deer, Rimbey, Didsbury and Indus. The result was an open and transparent review that maximized the amount of preparation time for all participants. The application was originally received on March 1, 2011. b

What On Earth Are Bioplastics?

The term “bioplastics” seems to cause almost as much confusion as the term “biodegradable”.

What exactly does the “bio” in bioplastics refer to?

Bio … bio … hmmm. The history of plastics? No. Biotechnology? No. It actually has more to do with that oft-dreaded high school class, biology. You know: having to do with life, living organisms, biological systems and the like.

OK … biological organisms and plastics. Well, since oil and natural gas originate from biological organisms, does that mean plastics derived from oil and natural gas are bioplastics?

Well, not really – at least that’s not how the term is commonly used. So just what on Earth are bioplastics?

Let’s step back in time for a bit of perspective. The very first plastics were (and still are) made by plants through their very own internal chemical synthesis.

Rubber from a rubber tree, for example, is actually a plastic. Early synthetic or “manmade” plastics were largely an attempt to replicate existing materials, such as rubber, ivory, or tortoise shells.

One of the first synthetic plastics was made from cellulose, a substance made by plants and trees. In today’s vernacular, this plastic is deemed a bioplastic. That means its primary raw materials (feedstocks) originate from “biomass”: living or recently living and renewable bio-organisms. Biomass… bio-organisms … thus the term: bioplastics.

Early bioplastics were largely eclipsed by more efficient plastics. The raw materials for today’s plastics come from many places (some even use salt), but most plastics can be made from the hydrocarbons that are readily available in natural gas, oil and coal. Even though these resources are derived from living organisms, they are not alive, recently alive or renewable (biomass). So plastics made from natural gas, oil or coal are not considered bioplastics.

Interest in bioplastics and other “bio” products has been growing (get it?) due to concern about the use of finite resources, primarily natural gas and oil.

Bioplastics are reemerging today as scientists develop more efficient ways to produce the necessary quantities of biomass, most often sugarcane, wheat and corn.

Many people believe – incorrectly – that if something is derived from biomass then it must also be biodegradable. However, the use of “bio” feedstocks does not necessarily mean that the finished product, a plastic or otherwise, will be biodegradable.

For example, a bioplastic called polylactic acid (PLA) is made with plant feedstocks and is considered biodegradable in a commercial composting facility. But PET bioplastic made with plant feedstocks is not biodegradable. In other words, the “bio” in bioplastics does not mean biodegradable.

PET bioplastic is, however, recyclable just like PET made from natural gas and oil feedstocks – they are chemically the same.

This brings up another point of general confusion – the comparison between a molecule derived from

January 2013 natural gas/oil/coal and the same molecule derived from a “bio” source. Many people believe these two molecules surely must have different properties and behave differently in the environment.

Well … In reality, identical chemical structures behave the same.

Here’s an example for plastics. One of the primary feedstocks for plastics is ethylene, produced in North America primarily from natural gas. (Ethylene derived plastics are used for all sorts of everyday products, from milk jugs to carpeting to fleece jackets.)

Ethylene also is created naturally by plants. Ever wonder why a banana ripens faster in a paper bag?

The banana actually creates and emits ethylene gas, which helps speed the ripening process – placing the banana in the bag traps more ethylene gas.

Does the “bio” ethylene have different properties than the ethylene derived from natural gas? No. Ethylene is ethylene, regardless the source. Ethylene’s structure (C2H4) is always exactly the same… just like good old water’s structure (H20) is always the same.

Will plastics derived from different ethylene sources have different properties? No. The original source of the ethylene is irrelevant to plastics (and to bananas).

But doesn’t “bio” mean: better for the environment?

That’s the subject of much discussion and debate today – as well as considerable research and development.

Plastics already are derived from corn, wheat, sugarcane … even orange peels. Using biomass – particularly food plant sources – raises complex questions about the potential impacts on water use, recyclability, the effects of farming, greenhouse gas emissions, food supply, the cost of food and others important issues.

Today’s intelligent plastics are vital to the modern world. These materials enhance our lifestyles, our economy and the environment.

New Millermatic 350P Aluminum MIG Welder Miller Electric Mfg. Co. has introduced the new Millermatic 350P Aluminum MIG welder, the first dedicated aluminum welding power source with a new true torque push-pull design, electronic wire spool brake, Trigger Schedule Select and synergic capabilities in both MIG and Pulsed MIG weld settings. This makes it one of the most versatile products for welding aluminum, by giving the operator the ability to tailor the arc to the weld by adjusting machine performance to the weld at the point-of-use — eliminating trips back and forth to the machines and concerns over wire feed consistency.

Consistent aluminum wire delivery is the hallmark of the Millermatic 350P Aluminum thanks to the enhanced wire delivery design. The Torque motor and the electronic brake work to-

gether to provide hours of continuous and productive wire delivery.

The new true torque push-pull feed motor provides positive and accurate wire feeding between the torque motor and gun and the electronic brake allows the wire spool to free spool providing drag-free wire delivery. The all-in-one Millermatic 350P Aluminum’s programs, speed, wire feed consistency and flexibility are perfect for builders of aluminum watercraft, trucks, trailers, aluminum signs and others products.

“We recognized that people making a living welding aluminum wanted more consistent wire feeding and more productivity,” said Chris Roehl, Product Manager, Miller Electric. Mfg. Co. “The true torque drive motor delivers a continuous push while the gun controls the speed, providing

accurate and trouble-free feeding. Welding aluminum requires the ability to have exacting control over your arc to adjust to changing joint profiles and positions, and this system provides that.”

The Millermatic 350P Aluminum synergic welding system gives the operator the first of its kind flexibility with synergic “one knob” control in both Pulsed MIG and MIG operation. The synergic connection means the Millermatic 350P Aluminum automatically adjusts voltage and amperage when the operator adjusts wire speed. This saves time and improves quality because the welder can react in real time to changing joint profiles and positions without having to stop welding and go back to the machine, while the Pulsed MIG process provides sufficient fusion, yet controls the heat input to prevent warping or burn-through.

The machine is equipped with easy-touse operator controls, including the new “Trigger Schedule Select,” which permits the user to preprogram two weld set-

Page 29

tings that they can quickly toggle between. This allows for quick changes between weld settings or from Pulsed MIG to MIG welding. This also prevents costly stop-and-go welding — just select the preset setting and keep welding.

The new Trigger Hold feature is like cruise control for the welder. Simply press the trigger down and after a few seconds the gun holds, giving the welder better comfort while working on long weldments. The wire jog feature is a convenient and safe way for the operator to feed wire at the machine without energizing the weld output.

The 350P provides superior aluminum performance when matched with the XR-Aluma-Pro, or the new XR AlumaPro Lite or XR Pistol Pro aircooled push-pull guns.

The Millermatic 350P Aluminum’s Hot Start eliminates fusion issues by ensuring correct heat from the beginning of the weld. Sharparc gives control of the arc cone shape, puddle fluidity and bead profile while in the Pulse MIG mode. b

ered units aren’t vulnerable to utility service interruptions such as the emergency shut-off of natural gas pipelines that are common safety procedures in natural disasters.

“Airport Radar and telecommunications systems have their own back-up power systems and the majority depends on diesel emergency generators to maintain passenger safety and security during stormrelated power interruptions of a few seconds or a few days,” Schaeffer said.

Diesel-powered generators have proven to be the most reliable, durable, and economical source of emergency power. In almost all instances, diesel generators are the only source of power generation that meets federal and state requirements of 10-second start-up and electrical loadcarrying capacity. Diesel powered units are typically much larger than the portable gasoline powered generators available at local home supply stores.

Tips and Advice for Diesel Generator Use To help businesses and cities protect critical facilities during a power outage,

January 2013

the Diesel Technology Forum has outlined several ways to ensure backup power in a crisis: Assess the risk: Identifying your facility’s critical loads is an important first step. Assign a cost to the risks associated with utility power interruptions, production losses and downtime. Frequent outages of a few seconds, a few minutes or more can often disrupt production lines and have significant cost implications to businesses. While other back-up electrical supply alternatives may exist, they can often take longer to engage and have shorter supply capabilities, have higher costs, lower reliability or no reasonable refueling options during an event.

Determine Needs, Properly permit, locate and Install a standby generator: Work with qualified diesel engine and equipment and generator dealers to properly spec, locate and install a unit.

Be sure that the units are properly sized to handle vital loads and installed by certified electricians and power experts and in accordance with all state and local fire and

environmental operating codes.

Have sufficient fuel storage: Diesel fuel’s energy density and the engine’s high efficiency allow for smaller fuel storage facilities compared to other fuels, which provides a cost savings to owners. Still, it is important to make sure that you have sufficient fuel storage capacity onsite for an extended outage of several days, and contingencies for refueling during a serious weather or other event in the event of extended outages.

Assure Proper Use, Readiness and Maintenance: As required by electrical and safety codes, standby generators should be “exercised” periodically (typically on a weekly basis) to ensure they will operate as designed in the event of an emergency.

Proper maintenance and servicing are key to reliability.

Contract rental power: If installing your own standby generation is not feasible for your business, you might consider contracting with a reliable firm to reserve rental generator power for use in the event of an extended outage. b

primoceler unveils new Glass welding machine Primoceler Inc., a microfabrication company specializing in glass welding and laser scribing, has announced its development of a new laser-based welding machine for microelectromechanical systems. Primoceler’s new machine produces an extremely small heat-affected zone during the hermetic sealing of sensitive components, improving manufacturing processes and expanding the potential for packaging sensitive components under or inside glass.

A major challenge facing manufacturers has been producing packages that do not mechanically stress their MEMS while providing electrical (and also fluidic or optical) interconnects, protecting micromechanical elements and allowing for the system to interact with external environments as planned. Conventional bonding methods such as fusion bonding and anodic bonding generate large amounts of heat, which can cause damage

with sensitive components.

“Our new technology is unique. No other machine can give the same results in the same fashion,” stated Ville Hevonkorpi, Primoceler’s Managing Director.

“Our laser micro welding methodology makes it possible to bond silicon and glass hermetically without adhesives or heat. Since the technology produces an extremely small HAZ (heataffected zone), there is no risk of breaking sensitive or organic components. As a result, this laser-assisted micro welding process presents manufacturers with an array of new possibilities for the production of electronic, engineering, medical and scientific research devices such as chips and sensors.

“Packaging has always been an important element of MEMS design and the environment inside the package is vital to its efficacy,” said Hevonkorpi.

“Primoceler’s unique sealing solution allows the use

of more fragile and sensitive components than ever before.” The machine does not require adhesive material in its operation, so the welding process is a fast one-step process. “We are able to produce welding seams with first-rate mechanical properties and those seams retain their quality over time. Any glue loses its strength in time so in fact, the lack of adhesives materials has led to a seam that is stronger and permanent.”

The machine includes a patent-pending autofocusing system that ensures reliability and quality by keeping the distance to wafer within micrometer accuracy. That high precision, in turn, enables high processing speeds of 50 mm/s or more.

The machine is easy to use with a 19-inch touchscreen, intuitive software and a standardized user interface for the machine, laser and viewing camera.

Additionally, clients have the options of integrating the technology with their production systems, including a vision system for alignment and viewing and full remote access for service and assistance via secure remote connection. b

AEM Hall Of Fame Announces 2012 Inductees The Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) announced the 2012 inductees into the AEM Hall of Fame, which recognizes and celebrates outstanding individuals in the off-road equipment industry, and their legacy of innovation, service and leadership.

Their vision and hard work have been critical to advancing global economic and social prosperity; their legacy strengthens continued industry contributions to improving our quality of life, and serves as an inspiration for tomorrow’s leaders.

The 2012 inductees into the AEM Hall of Fame are: • John Deere (Deere & Company) • Pierre Bataille (Poclain) • Wood Brothers - Keith, Leonard and Mervel (Woods Equipment Company) AEM Hall of Fame inductees have been evaluated by an independent

panel of industry experts on five criteria that are vital to the health of the off-road equipment manufacturing industry: (1) innovation, (2) industry contributions, (3) leadership, (4) corporate citizenship/social responsibility and (5) sustainability.

For more information on the AEM Hall of Fame and all its inductees, go online to the AEM Hall of Fame section of the AEM website - www.aem.org/ HallofFame.

About the 2012 Hall of Fame inductees Below are summaries for each of the 2012 honourees with some of the reasons they were selected for induction.

John Deere (Deere & Company) John Deere was a leader in his day in vision, innovation, and improving the quality of life for his fellow citizens. The company marks its 175th

anniversary in 2012, recognizing the significant influence Deere has had for almost two centuries in equipment manufacturing – an impact the Illinois blacksmith could not have imagined when he was first compelled to create tools that have evolved into machinery that helps build and feed the world.

“John Deere” has been synonymous with equipment almost since John Deere moved from New England to Grand Detour, Ill., where his skills as a blacksmith were immediately in demand. Deere ultimately took his business to Moline, Ill., which had access to better transportation routes and essential energy sources.

If Deere could have seen the future in 1837 when he created his innovative selfscouring plow for Midwestern farmers, he would have been amazed and proud to see that his namesake

company would become a world leader in machinery manufacturing.

Deere built a global company on the core values of integrity, quality, commitment and innovation - one that produces machinery with a myriad of applications in agriculture, construction, forestry and turf care. John Deere made an everlasting mark and earned his place in the AEM Hall of Fame through the development of equipment manufacturing to its status today as a key contributor to our economic well-being and quality of life.

Pierre Bataille (Poclain) Pierre Bataille was an industry innovator and a responsible leader, contributing to economic development in France while improving quality of life for his workforce and the industry.

The technology he helped develop, high pressure hydraulics, played a part in the huge increase in productivity for agricultural works, handling operations and earthmoving. He was a pioneer in development of the hydraulic excavator. He was the instigator to use production assembly

Page 39

lines for excavators in the early 1960s, increasing production and reliability; his concept of the swing drive and boom remain a standard today.

A leader in social responsibility, Bataille offered interest-free loans to his employees, a majority of whom were former farmers living in poor conditions who then more easily became homeowners.

He developed a technical training center to provide workers and excavator operators with job training.

Bataille established one of the first staffed company cafeterias for his employees and a network of buses to safely transport them to and from work; while not a widespread practice in the 1960s, Bataille instituted noise-reduction measures in the plant and on excavators.

Bataille’s civic service included leadership of French standardization and business development organizations, and he also served as president of the Committee for European Construction Equipment.

In 1990, Bataille was awarded the rank of Officer of the Legion of Honor by the French government in

recognition of his entrepreneurial leadership.

Wood Brothers – Keith, Leonard and Mervel (Woods Equipment Company) Keith, Leonard and Mervel Wood were problem solvers, risk takers and entrepreneurs who used these skills to fuel their drive for inventing and manufacturing. As pioneers in the development of rotary cutters and mowers, the Wood brothers helped create a prevalent product category for the short line industry.

One invention that dramatically affected the agricultural industry is the company’s iconic Batwing rotary cutter, known generically as the flex-wing rotary cutter, first shipped in 1963. Other key inventions include the patented single V-belt drive system, used on virtually all residential and commercial mowers in use today, and the single attachment pin blade retention system, a design still used on most Woods cutters today.

The brothers sought to adapt their equipment to all types, sizes and models of tractors, including two Continued on page 40

sutton services purchases the new QJ241 From sandvik For the last 20 years Glenn Sutton and Sutton Services Ltd have been providing a high quality demolition and dismantling service in East Anglia. Due to an increasing work load, and in order to improve efficiency, Glenn Sutton decided it was time for the company to upgrade their crusher.

East Anglia based Sutton Services Ltd is a leading demolition contractor and general building dismantlers that have rapidly expanded in recent years.

This has been achieved by drawing on a wealth of experience in the demolition industry, but at the same time proudly minimizing environmental impact. Directors and staff possess a vast working knowledge of the industry; it's ever evolving nature, with a key feature of their success being the emphasis placed on regular liaison with the relevant authorities. This

has enabled the company to keep abreast of changes to working practices, thus aiding in implementation on site.

In order to ensure operational efficiency, minimal environmental impact, and compliance with changing regulations, Glenn Sutton, Managing Director of Sutton Services, realized that in the company’s 20th year a new crushing solution would be needed if they were to maintain competitive advantage. As Glenn explains, “When you are in business you can’t sit back and rest on your laurels. Over the last 20 years we have developed a loyal and expanding customer base who expects the very best in service. Although I’ve tried to ensure that our equipment is the best out there it was becoming obvious that we needed a more modern and compact crushing solution.”

With this need identified

Glenn sought out the best value machine on the market, and looked at various crushers from differing manufacturers before settling on the new QJ241 from Sandvik Construction. As Glenn continues – “The QJ241 is meant to be the best out there, and my customers deserve the best.”

The QJ241 is Sandvik’s smallest mobile jaw crusher; of dimensions suitable for low loader trailers, and weighing just over 34 tons, it lends itself perfectly to varied operations at construction sites. The singletoggle crusher has a feed opening of 1000 x 650mm facilitating production of up to 225 tons per hour depending on the material and the required final material size. In Sutton’s recycling operation 120 to 150 tph may be achieved when producing a 0/70mm end product. Furthermore the reversible jaw crusher accepts a maximum feed

2005 133x115 Reverse Discharge Impact Crusher $POR

size of 500mm, and the fitment of a hydraulic wedge adjustment allows a CSS (closed side setting) range of 50 to 150 mm.

A major reason for Glenn Sutton’s decision to go with Sandvik is that the QJ241 has proved an ideal tool for efficient long-term use at construction sites, recycling facilities and small quarries. One of its main assets in these operations is the extensive steel pipe work used in the hydraulics, which provides superior heat dissipation and a maintenance free sealing solution. Additionally the displays, controls and service points are close to ground level, or easily accessible via platforms.

The machine also possesses several practical features including a standard fitted hydraulically driven cooling fan, with auto reverse, to back-flush dust from the radiator or the central auto lube on the jaw. Furthermore, and depending on operator requirements, the crusher can be operated remotely by wireless control or via umbilical cord.

The use of a modern PLC system on the QJ241 controls both the level sensor at the crusher in-feed, and

the RPM of the main conveyor. The hydraulically driven feeder with grizzly allows automatic control of the feed rate from the large hopper. Additional use of hydraulics sees a hydraulic raise and lower facility on the 800mm wide tail conveyor, which provides clearance for the overband magnet thereby guaranteeing smooth and continuous discharge.

A key feature of all Sandvik mobile crushers, and the QJ241 in particular, has been the minimization of operating costs.

This has been achieved via load optimized control of the hydraulics, and the use of a modern 168-kW CAT C7.1 Acert engine that is compliant with EU Stage IIIb emissions. These developments have led to a significant decrease in fuel consumption even in high-capacity operations.

The benefits have already proved evident for Glenn Sutton as he states that after 150hrs of operation - “Compared with previous crushers we have used the QJ241 now achieves in all applications 25% more output and consumes 30% less fuel.”

Sutton Services and Glenn Sutton represent the new breed of demolition contractors who not only aim to complete projects to

the highest standard possible, but also aim to do so by using the very latest equipment, thereby maximizing on site health and safety, whilst minimizing their environmental footprint.

The new Sandvik QJ241, the first in East Anglia, represents new standards of performance geared to both end material quality and project profitability, and its purchase by Glenn Sutton marks the 20th year of Sutton Services Limited perfectly. b

‘Super’ 726E Tigercat brings back the 726E feller buncher with a high horsepower twist.

Jim Ard, owner of Jim Ard Timber Inc, a Mississippi logger and B&G Equipment customer, strolled into the B&G Magnolia branch one day with a brilliant idea. Ard, who primarily contracts to Weyerhaeuser, generally works in mature pine and the terrain typically tends to be broken up by some steep ground that constrains the deck areas and taxes the feller buncher. “We’ve got these ridges,” says Jim. “Very rarely do we have the room to put two loaders on the same deck. We usually can’t even get the loaders close enough together to be fed by a single skidder. It’s almost like two little jobs in one.”

The day Jim popped into the Magnolia store, president W.J. Bates as well as branch manager Red Williamson happened to be there. Jim came right

out with it, asking the two men to fi gure out a way to sell him a 300 hp 726E feller buncher. “For us the 724E doesn’t quite do the job,” Jim explains.

The 220 hp 724E is very capable in almost any wheel feller buncher clear fell application yet its size and wheelbase still lends itself to thinning jobs when required, especially when equipped with the 5500 saw which combines big timber control with small stem bunching ability. The versatility and performance of the 724E had completely displaced sales of the 726E over the last few years, and Tigercat had quietly discontinued production of the model, as a feller buncher, that is.

Tigercat has been busy selling a 300 hp mulcher version called the M726E which always has had an optional multi-function hydraulic system and quickattach boom adapter so that the machine could be

chine with aggressive cleat 66x43-25 tires providing an optimal combination of traction, low ground pressure and side stability. “We run the 43 tires all year round so that the machine can work side slopes but also covers my flotation in the winter.”

Jim is overjoyed with the performance of his new machine. “The extra horsepower is most noticeable when backing uphill loaded — which in turn helps the skidders.” The 726E has an additional 127 mm (5 in) of wheelbase and is 230 mm (9 in) longer overall which augments stability and traction on slopes when the 5702 saw is clutching a big tree. Operator David Craven routinely cuts 25 loads daily.

Howard Means, owner of R.H. Logging, purchased the second and third of the initial three machine run

changed to a feller buncher in a pinch if a land clearing contractor wanted to fell merchantable timber.

That said, granting Jim’s request wasn’t as simple as slapping a sawhead on the mulcher carrier. There was some work involved to optimize the hydraulics for a feller buncher application. The mulcher version has a very large attachment pump and a different drive circuit so Tigercat agreed to do the required back-end work and put the machine into production if B&G would make a larger commitment to three machines.

Feeling confident about the idea, they agreed and now, a few short months later, Tigercat has shipped ten machines and demand for the industry’s newest, largest and most powerful feller buncher is expanding into other regions with big K-Tec Earthmovers Inc. has timber and tough terrain.

Jim equipped his ma- signed on Access Import Services to become the authorized dealer of K-Tec construction scrapers in Australia.

from B&G Iuka. Working summers in Chickasaw State Park in southern Tennessee, Howard’s machines are felling a steady diet of 60 year old pine growing in very fertile soil. The 35 m (120 ft) tall trees average 510-585 mm (20-23 in) diameter at the stump, weighing 1,8-2,7 tonne (4,000-6,000 lb). In addition, the hilly Tennessee country can bring slopes up to 30%. “We like the extra weight in the back end,” says Howard. The state forest also has quite a bit of oversize, top heavy hardwood. In fact, the famous Tennessee whisky, Jack Daniels, is aged in white oak barrels made from timber that comes out of the region.

Operator, Eddie Nunnley is also impressed with the machine, adding, “That’s probably the best cutter ever made and easy

K-Tec Earthmovers stands by an impressive 3-Year structural warranty on new scrapers, which bolsters the quality equipment that Access Import Services provides to their clients.

K-Tec Earthmovers started shipping scrapers via sea-container to Australia in 2007,with an ideal

The new machine with the low 1,900 rpm engine speed really has an effect on fuel consumption,” he says. “You take 400 rpm off and I think this is really going to affect engine life as well. It still pulls down but not nearly as much as the old machine. My fuel consumption has dropped from 34 L/h (9 gph) to 28 L/h (7.5 gph).”

oil sands investment to Generate Benefit all parts of canada Nearly one-third of the economic benefits of oil sands investment between 2012 and 2035 will occur in provinces other than Alberta, according to a Conference Board of Canada report assessing the impact of an estimated $364 billion investment on Canada’s regions and industry sectors.

Much of the economic benefits outside Alberta will be in Ontario and British Columbia.

“The development of Canada’s oil sands deposits constitutes one of the largest development projects in the country’s history. It is so large that it will rival massive public works projects in scale, such as the building of the Interstate Highway System in the United States,” said Michael Burt, Director, Industrial Economic Trends.

This report, Fuel for Thought: The Economic Benefit of Oil Sands Investment for Canada’s Regions, was recently presented at the National Buyer Seller

Forum in Edmonton.

In the past decade, the cumulative investment in Canada’s oil sands has surpassed $100 billion.

The Conference Board estimates that nearly four times that amount, $364 billion in price-adjusted investment, is expected to take place over the next 25 years. This level of investment is forecast to support 3.2 million person years of employment over the term of the investment, or 8,800 person years for every $1 billion in investment. One person year of employment is the equivalent of one fulltime job for one year.

In addition to the direct effects associated with spending on new projects, as well as spending on improvements, maintenance, and repairs to capital assets, this study considers supply chain effects – employment associated with the use of interme-

diate inputs or other support services that are part of oil sands investment.

The research also includes income effects, which occur when the wages that employees earn from the direct and supply chain effects are spent.

The study breaks this employment impact down as: • direct effects in the construction industry of 880,000 person-years of employment; • supply chain effects of 1.45 million personyears of employment in a variety of industries, but predominately in oilfield services, professional services, manufacturing, wholesale trade, financial services, and transportation; and • income effects of 880,000 person-years of employment resulting from the spending of wages and salaries, estimated at $172 billion.

12 Ways To Make Roads Safer For Pedestrians Walking is inexpensive, emission-free, uses no fossil fuel, offers important health benefits and, for those without substantially impaired mobility, is accessible regardless of income.

Walking is the most fundamental form of mobility.

But walking can often also be challenging. Pedestrians are particularly vulnerable in traffic crashes.

The number of pedestrians killed on roads is estimated at above 400 000 per year, i.e. around a third of annual road fatalities around the globe.

Pedestrian Safety will be the focus of the United Nations Road Safety Week from 6-13 May 2013. A report released by the International Transport Forum (ITF) at the OECD highlights the role of national governments in improving pedestrian mobility and proposes 12 sets of measures to create safer walk-

ing environments.

“We need to learn again how to walk. And that means learning how to organise the space for walking” said José Viegas, SecretaryGeneral of ITF, on the occasion of the report’s launch.

“Urban environments are often making it difficult to enjoy this most fundamental form of moving. This report will help governments to take the right steps towards better mobility and more liveable cities.”

ITF road safety expert Véronique Feypell de la Beaumelle added: “Pedestrians are amongst the road users most vulnerable to traffic injury. It has become highly challenging, especially for older people and children, to cope with the complex, sometimes hostile, traffic conditions that characterise today’s cities and towns.”

The study, entitled “Pedestrian Safety, Urban

Space and Health”, was prepared by a Working Group of transport experts and urban planners from 19 countries and the World Health Organization under the leadership of the ITF. Key facts on walking from the report: • Walking represents up to 50% of trips in urban areas. The vitality of a city is closely linked to people being out and about on foot for many purposes.

• An 80% drop in pedestrian risk of death is achievable by traffic speed reductions from 50 km/h to 30 km/h. Lowering motorised traffic speeds is a key to improving pedestrian safety.

• Around 30% of pedestrians have impaired mobility at any given time – from mothers negotiating traffic with young children to walkers carrying heavy items

to older pedestrians with physical handicaps.

• Up to 75% of pedestrian injuries result from walkers falling in public spaces. This hazard is in part related to maintenance and design of public spaces, not to a collision with a vehicle. It is underrated and frequently ignored.

• Pedestrians suffer severe trauma from road accidents. The magnitude of the consequences is known to be underestimated.

Key recommendations of the report: 1. Integrate the needs of pedestrians at the earliest stages of urban planning projects and transport investments.

2. Establish clear administrative responsibilities at all levels of government for coordination of initiatives to promote walking.

3. Improve knowledge about walking: Create a standardised methodology for measuring, reporting and monitoring pedestrian mobility. Create national pedestrian observatories and encourage international comparisons.

4. Treat public transport services as an integrated part of the development of new urban areas. This can support a shift towards higher-density, mixed-use walking and transit-oriented urban environments.

5. Give more space to non-motorised traffic in city centres: Provide easy, safe, well-maintained pedestrian access to public

transport and city centre destinations. Develop carfree areas, discourage overuse of cars in city centres, and prevent parking on pavements and pedestrian crossings.

6. Develop national pedestrian planning guidance for local administrations.

Plans should routinely consider the impact of projects on pedestrians and cyclists.

They should also include targets for future levels of walking.

7. Encourage employers to create incentives for employees to walk and cycle to work.

8. Adopt a “safe system” approach for the design of walking environments.

Atlas Copco has released an exciting new version of its standard LBV16 angle drill designated the LBV16M. The M stands for “modularity” since the drill has interchangeable heads.

This will make it particularly valuable for the aerospace industry and other applications where accessibility is a common issue in production.

Fast changing of angle heads The LBV16M is designed to enable fast changing of angle heads.

The user clearly feels when the quick change

mechanism engages and can thus be confident that the angle head is securely attached.

The drill is ergonomically designed for maximum operator comfort. The handle gives a comfortable grip without any sharp edges and is well insulated to protect the user from changes in temperature.

The LBV16M features the same powerful motor, high quality angle head and light and compact design as the LBV16, and will be a reliable partner for a wide range of drilling applications. b

ditions, but a number of factors could affect the level of investment over the next 25 years. These include: capacity constraints in the oil sands region, the possibility for

global oil supply or demand to behave differently than expected, and the need to mitigate risks associated with the environmental footprint of the oil sands. b

fects include: ornamental and architectural metal products; construction machinery; navigational, measuring, medical, and control instruments; and tire manufacturing.

Beyond the employment impacts, oil sands-related investment is expected to generate government revenues of $79.4 billion ($45.3 billion in federal revenues and $34.1 for provinces) between 2012 and 2035, on an inflation-adjusted basis.

This includes the effects of personal income taxes, corporate profit taxes, and indirect taxes (such as sales taxes and taxes on fuel).

Allstate Canada’s Urban Safe Driving Challenge After two months without professional hockey, loyal fans may be itching to find new ways to keep their “friendly” city rivalries alive, so Allstate Insurance Company of Canada offers the Urban Safe Driving Challenge: a head-tohead look at auto collision claims from Allstate Canada customers between July 1, 2010, to June 30, 2012, in five NHL cities (Edmonton, Calgary, Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal).

In the Urban Safe Driving Challenge Western Conference, Calgary beat out its Edmonton rivals, in a result similar to their team’s 2011-12 season record. Calgary drivers reported fewer collisions per 100 cars, a collision rate of 5.63 per cent, compared to Edmonton’s 6.02 per cent collision rate. Over in the Eastern Conference, not only did Montreal end last season behind both the Leafs and the Senators, according to Allstate Canada claims data, the city finished last to its bitter rivals in collisions frequency: 8.54 per cent for Montreal, 6.12 per cent for Toronto and 6.10 per cent for Ot-

tawa.

Three of the urban centres saw their collision rate decrease between 2008-2010 and 2010--2012.

Calgary’s rate dropped by 5.63 per cent; Edmonton’s reduced by 4.87 per cent and Toronto’s collision rate decreased by 4.76 per cent.

Allstate Canada created the Urban Safe Driving Challenge to generate discussion about driving behaviour in Canada and to help keep roads and communities safer for everyone by emphasizing the importance of safe driving. “We’re pleased to see fewer collisions in three of our Challenge cities.

Whether this is because of an increased awareness of the dangers of hand-held devices starting to take effect, drivers reducing their speed, increased police activity or other influences we don’t yet know, we hope to see this trend continue,” says Saskia Matheson of Allstate Canada.

When analyzing the data for the Urban Safe Driving Challenge, Allstate Canada noted a worrying trend about when collisions take place and the severity

While Montreal had of injuries that are a result the highest collision rate of these crashes. “Drivers in the study, according to may be surprised to learn the service de police de la that our claims data and studies have shown that more fatal collisions happen when conditions are clear and roads are dry,” says Matheson. “Speed is often the issue.”

new Bandit revolution stump Grinder cutter wheel use, and they’ll also find it does a far better job of containing chips than anything else on the market.”

The key to the Bandit Revolution’s performance is the spiral configuration of the teeth, combined with low-profile pockets that receive minimal wear while also minimizing chip spread. The lead teeth on the wheel are set at 57 and 20 degrees to complete the spiral of the side teeth up and over the wheel’s edge, allowing for a more aggressive cut that also helps move material away from the stump. A variety of carbide teeth are available to best suit grinding conditions and machine horsepower, and their counter-sunk mounting in the pockets make them virtually unbreakable.

A LONG-SHORT lead tooth allows the cutting to take place further from the wheel, reducing wear. For high horsepower machines, a SHORTSHORT carbide is used to reduce leverage and keep the cutting action closer to the pocket. The SaberTooth maximizes the cutting efficiency on lower

The pockets run all the way to the edge of the wheel and are reversible, allowing for double the normal pocket life while protecting the wheel from premature wear. The teeth serve as the mounting bolts for the pockets, eliminating the expense of additional hardware. And because all teeth are the same size, field service is very easy.

This combines to create a stump grinding wheel and tooth system that delivers superior cutting power with impressive chip containment, all while reducing wear and maintenance needs.

“We’re very excited to be working with New River Equipment to bring this wheel to the forefront of the stump grinding market, and companies are already talking about just how good it works,” said DiSalvo. “The Bandit Revolution is a perfect match for Bandit’s new stump grinders, but we’re also very pleased to have this system available for professionals using other equipment as well.

Whatever you’re using to go after stumps, Bandit can help you see more profit at the end of the day.” b

IMT Introduces New Articulating Crane Models Iowa Mold Tooling Co., Inc. (IMT), an Oshkosh Corporation company (NYSE:OSK), is pleased to introduce new 40 tm and 50 tm models to its lineup of truck-mounted articulating cranes. Featuring excellent lift-to-weight ratios, long-reach capabilities and minimized space requirements, the cranes provide customers with powerful, flexible new options to meet their specific application needs.

The 40/275 crane provides a maximum lifting capacity of 19,026 pounds (8,630 kilograms), while the 50/345 model delivers a maximum lifting capacity of 22,840 pounds (10,360 kilograms). The 40/275 and 50/345 models can be equipped with up to eight hydraulic extensions for maximum horizontal reaches of 69 feet 11 inches (21.3 meters) and 70 feet 3 inches (21.4 meters), respectively. The minimized

dimensions and lower weight of these cranes allow for additional truck configuration possibilities and increased payload.

“IMT is dedicated to offering a spectrum of crane options to match unique customer needs,” said John Field, product manager of material handling at IMT. “The new 40 tm and 50 tm articulating crane models meet customer demand for particular lift and reach capabilities, minimized space requirements, robust safety features, ease of maintenance and low maintenance costs.”

The 40/275 and 50/345 models feature ultra-high tensile steel that provides lower weight, high lift capacity at long reaches and increased payload capabilities. The mounting space required has been reduced to 3 feet 9 inches (1148 millimeters) and 3 feet 11 inches (1198 millimeters), respectively, expanding

truck configuration possibilities.

The 40/275 and 50/345 cranes feature a dual power plus link arm system (DL), which is well suited for long reaches and lifting in high positions with demanding equipment (such as fly-jib and winch).

In addition, the DL system provides precise and regular movements in the entire working area while offering the best lifting capacities under almost any working conditions.

Another feature of the 40/275 and 50/345 models is “over-bending,” which means the working area between the main boom and the outer boom is no less than 195 degrees.

Over-bending offers greater flexibility when working through narrow passages and under overhead obstructions, the ability to lift maximum loads in all boom positions, and a lower total height when

the crane is stowed on the truck body.

A key safety feature standard on all IMT articulating crane models is the RCL (rated capacity limiter) 5300. The RCL system monitors the crane’s load moment, operation and function. In an overload situation, the system warns the operator and interrupts the distribution of oil for crane functions, while allowing functions that reduce load moment to remain operational. The RCL 5300 cooperates with the user and compensates when the RCL senses a situation requiring intervention. The system not only monitors safety during crane operation, but also crane position during transport (stabilizers and boom position).

Additional features of the new articulating crane models include: • A radio remote control equipped with an information center that controls stabilizer functions and feedback of loader operation conditions.

• Continuous rotation.

• An internal hose routing system.

• Optional stabilizer solu-

tions for each side.

• An innovative, flexible stow bracket design that secures boom for transportation but does not allow bracket damage.

Additional features of all IMT articulating cranes include: • A strong hexagonal profile.

• Load-holding valves on all load-bearing cylinders.

• An extension system equipped with a regeneration valve to increase working speed.

• High resale value.

The 40/275 and 50/345 cranes join the other IMT articulating crane models, which are designed to offer a wide range of options in lifting capacity and reach.

The IMT articulating crane lineup has a maximum reach ranging from 10 feet 2 inches to 70 feet 10 inches and offers lift capacities ranging from 1,740 pounds (790 kilograms) to 38,185 pounds (17,320 kilograms) maximum rating. The new cranes replace the 34 tm, 38 tm, 42 tm and 47 tm models in the IMT articulating crane lineup. b

Doosan’s New DX225LC And DX255LC Excavators From clearing land for initial site development, to excavating for utilities, to stabilizing foundations for pavement installations, the ability to tailor an excavator’s power to its projects can increase productivity and reduce fuel consumption for contractors. Upgrades in power and performance to the Doosan DX225LC-3 and the DX255LC-3 excavators, combined with interim Tier 4 (iT4) emission compliance updates, are designed to help customers work more efficiently.

Improvements to the machines include new selectable power modes and work modes that provide operators with the convenience of being able to customize their machine’s power delivery for specific tasks, in addition to adjusting the hydraulic flow to match attachment functions. A new electronic fan clutch reduces fuel consumption and noise levels, while providing cooling system efficiency improvements on the machines.

Power The DX225LC-3 and DX255LC-3 are each powered by a 6-cylinder Doosan DL06K water-cooled

diesel engine that has been designed for use with a cooled exhaust gas recirculation (CEGR) system, diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) and diesel particulate filter (DPF). The engines in this configuration are optimized to reduce nitrogen oxides and articulate matter to comply with iT4 emission regulations. The turbocharged 167 horsepower engine on the DX225LC-3 and the 185 horsepower engine on the DX255LC-3 feature a highpressure common-rail design with direct fuel injection and electronic control.

The versatile, mid-sized Doosan DX225LC-3 and DX255LC-3 crawler excavators feature an electronic power optimizing system (EPOS), which provides optimum power and fuel efficiency via four power modes, auto-idle and machine diagnostics. Operators can work more effectively with multiple work modes, easy-to-read display monitors and precise control levers. The new Power + mode provides improved performance and faster workgroup speeds for heavy duty work.

Performance

Four work modes — digging, breaker, shear and the new lifting mode — allow operators to get maximum efficiency and fuel economy in specific applications. In the lifting mode, the increased pump torque, low engine rpms and automatic power boost provide extra muscle when lifting materials like pipe or concrete barriers.

The 167 horsepower DX225LC-3 has an operating weight of 49,604 pounds with standard boom, arm and 1.20 cubic yard bucket. Bucket breakout force is 33,510 pounds, while arm breakout force is 23,810 pounds. Maximum digging reach is 31 feet 10 inches at ground level and maximum digging depth is 21 feet 7 inches. Dump height is 22 feet 5 inches.

The 185 horsepower DX255LC-3 has an operating weight of 56,659 pounds with standard boom, arm and 1.43 cubic yard bucket. Bucket breakout force is 39,463 pounds, while arm breakout force is 28,219 pounds. Maximum digging reach is 32 feet 10 inches at ground level and maximum digging depth is 22 feet 4 inches. Dump height is 23 feet 1 inches.

Options The DX225LC-3 and DX255LC-3 feature a new Intelligent Floating Boom option that allows the boom of the excavator to “float” up or down. With this feature, the operator can focus more on the task while decreasing the machine workload and increasing efficiency. The float mode lets the boom move freely up and down without hydraulic flow, while the breaker mode allows the boom to freely move down, only without hydraulic flow. A temporary reset button provides the ability to momentarily disengage the float modes, permitting hydraulic flow to activate the boom. Also offered is an air compressor, which is ideal for operators in remote and dusty locations to clean the cab.

A new straight travel option streamlines the travel and transport of the machines. This feature is ideal for the straight forwardand-backward travel common in trenching applications, as it provides a single foot pedal in the right front corner of the cab floor that operates both tracks.

Comfort Doosan continues to

focus on operator comfort with further enhancements to the Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS) cabin.

Both a seat-height lever and a tilting function for the seat cushion were added to the seat to allow the operator to find an optimum seating position. The cabin mounting mechanism has been improved with a thickened dampening plate, and an internal coil spring has been added to reduce cabin vibration 20 percent, allowing operators to work longer days with less fatigue.

The spacious cab features an adjustable suspension seat with headrest and adjustable armrest.

Joystick controls telescope up and down based on operator preference. A multifunction color LCD monitor panel displays a variety of machine information, including operation history, flow rate control and filter/ oil information.

Easy-to-operate joystick controls make precise machine movements easy, while supplementary buttons are available for control of additional equipment, such as grabs, crushers and grippers. In addi-

tion, the sound-suppressed cab keeps machine noise as low as possible to reduce operator fatigue.

Uptime Long maintenance intervals and easy access to service points increase machine uptime and productivity. Examples include centralized grease inlets, wide side access doors for cleaning radiators and oil coolers, boom pivot bushings with greasing intervals of 250 hours, bucket pins with greasing intervals of 50 hours and a large-capacity engine air precleaner that removes more than 99 percent of airborne particles and extends filter cartridge service life.

The DX225LC-3 and DX255LC-3 — like all new Doosan machines — are covered by an innovative 48 hour parts guarantee.

The program guarantees that if a “machine-debilitating” part is needed, Doosan will deliver it directly to the end user within two business days or Doosan will pay for a replacement machine rental. The 48 Hour Parts Guarantee is subject to carrier delivery restrictions and/or governmental agency delays. b

cleantech engine production moves to asia Cleantech engine supplier Power Solutions International, Inc. (“PSI”) (OTCBB:PSIX) recently announced a China-based joint venture with global manufacturer MAT Holdings, Inc. (“MAT”).

The partnership will allow the companies to support PSI’s existing customers in Asia and better serve that region’s growing market for natural gas-, propane-, and gasoline-fueled engines.

The joint venture will draw on relationships that both companies have already established in the region.

PSI sells a large number of engines to customers based in Asia, and the MAT family of companies manufactures in multiple worldwide locations including China, Vietnam, and India. The joint venture will utilize MAT’s extensive network of Asian vendors and contacts to establish a Chinese business based on PSI’s innovative cleantech engine line up.

PSI currently supplies engines to Chinese forklift manufacturers and other

material-handling equipment manufacturers from its US base of operations. According to Eric Cohen, PSI’s Chief Operating Officer, PSI’s customers collectively comprise more than 50% of China’s forklift market, having collected combined revenue of over $1.3 billion in 20111.

China accounts for over 70% of the Asian forklift market and is reported to be the largest forklift market in the world with sales exceeding 300,000 units per year2.

“PSI’s existing and prospective customers have requested that we establish operations in China,” Mr. Cohen said.

“Our customers see a wave of demand building in China for PSI’s state-of-the-art cleanfuel engines. Our JV partnership with MAT, utilizing MAT’s extensive operational capabilities in China, will allow us to set up and grow rapidly in China.”

PSI’s leadership believes that the company’s emphasis on leading-edge technologies and investments in personnel will give the

manitoba supports active transportation planning New Active Transportation funding is now available to help rural communities start projects and improve local infrastructure designed to encourage people to use alternatives to motor vehicle transportation.

Municipalities and northern communities with populations of fewer than 50,000 residents are eligible to apply to the Active Transportation Fund, made possible by a $1 million investment from the federal Gas Tax Fund.

“This program builds on the Small Communities Transit Fund launched in 2010, making $1 million in federal Gas Tax funding available to costshare active transportation projects with eligible municipalities over the next two years,” said the Honourable Ron Lemieux, Local Government Minister. “People are becoming more health and environmentally conscious and are switching to public transportation, bicycles and walking. As these activities increase, people will see improved health benefits, lower transportation costs and fewer cars and trucks on the road.

Reducing greenhouse-gas emissions is good for us

and for our environment.”

“Our Government is committed to supporting infrastructure projects in municipalities across Canada,” said the Honourable Steven Fletcher, Minister of State (Transport) and Member of Parliament for Charleswood-St. JamesAssiniboia.

“We are proud of our $1 million investment in this program which will help municipalities across Manitoba promote environmentally friendly transportation.

The Gas Tax fund is just one of the ways our Government is carrying out our promise to help create jobs and stimulate economic growth across the country.”

The program provides 50 per cent cost-shared funding for eligible projects up to a maximum of $50,000 per project. Eligible projects include: • Bike racks/lockers; • Bike paths; • Sidewalks and other pathways for pedestrian use; • Lighting and signage on trails, sidewalks and bike paths; and • Active transportation design/project plans that lead to future active transportation development.

“The benefits of active transportation for Manitoba communities are wide ranging,” said Association of Manitoba Municipalities President Doug Dobrowolski. “This initiative will reduce pressure on our overburdened municipal streets and roads. The health of our citizens is also important to local governments. That’s why active transportation options are a win-win – they reduce costs and improve our quality of life.”

The Manitoba government is launching a dedicated active transportation website to promote and support small communities in developing sustainable active transportation options. The website offers Manitoba success stories; resources and tools for municipalities, schools and community groups; information on safety; maps of trails and pathways around the province; and information on programs and agencies that support active transportation. The new provincial government web address is: www.gov. mb.ca/ia/at/index.html.

Together, all these tools and resources will help municipalities integrate active transportation planning, design and implementation with land use and transportation planning. The commitments are part of the Manitoba government’s three-year action plan to promote and improve active transportation across Manitoba. b

joint venture a significant advantage over competing Asian businesses. Along with its existing product line, PSI will contribute engineering resources, customer service tools, and key financing to the endeavor.

MAT and its subsidiaries utilize global manufacturing and logistics to supply highquality products in three main areas, including automotive hard parts, power equipment, and hardware.

The joint venture will begin by supplying 2.0 liter and 2.4 liter engines to PSI’s material-handling customers based in China.

The ultimate plan for the new company is to supply throughout Asia alternative-fuel engines and power systems suited to a wide variety of applications.

Current trends in the Asia market -- especially in China -- may favor business projects involving alternative fuels. According to the International Energy Agency’s June 2012 report3, China should more than double its natural gas consumption over the next five years. In addition, the country’s most recent Five-Year Plan calls for a 17% reduction in carbon emissions by 20154. b

vtt wins prize For Bio-oil production technique VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, along with the energy company Fortum, engineering company Metso and forestry company UPM, has developed a technique that enables the cogeneration of heating energy and biooil in the same power plant cost-effectively and sustainably. VTT’s technique is based on combining pyrolysis and fluidised bed technology.

Thanks to the new technique, bio-oil production volumes can be expected to increase considerably in the next few decades.

VTT received an innovation award for the new technology. The award was distributed in December by the European Association for Research and Technology Organizations EARTO. ”The innovation prize

brings up the long-term work that VTT has done in developing renewable energy sources.

EARTO wants to reward innovations that have significant societal and economic impact. The prize indicates that we have been successful in this work,” says AnneChristine Ritschkoff, Executive Vice President, Strategic Research, VTT. Bio-oil has for a long time been pegged as the successor of fossil fuels as our future source of energy. However, largescale commercial use of bio-oil in heat generation requires a cost-effective production technique.

The new technique patented by VTT enables a considerable cut in the production cost of bio-oil.

Fast pyrolysis involves heating biomass such as forest industry

the world’s most powerful test Bench For Hydraulic rod seals To support its customers in proving seals for critical applications, Trelleborg Sealing Solutions has invested in the world’s most powerful test bench for hydraulic rod seals.

This unique facility allows testing to be carried out that has previously never been possible, providing an unrivaled resource to seal specifiers globally.

Installed in a specially constructed well, the 18ton, 260 kW floating-mount rod seal test bench is located at Trelleborg’s research and development center in Stuttgart, Germany. It is capable of simulating, as realistically as possible, the patterns of movements

and stresses faced by hydraulic rod seals in some of the most demanding rod seal applications, such as aircraft landing gear, injection molding machines and mining excavators.

“Our seals are used all over the world and must be able to operate equally effectively in the cold of the Antarctic as in the heat of the Sahara Desert,” says Holger Jordan, Manager of Fluid Power Technology.

“Our substantial investment in this test rig allows us to offer our customers a unique facility to prove seals against ever-increasing development requirements.”

“The test bench is about simulating the real world

t! e g r o F ’t Don e Next Th ine is Ad Deadl , 2013 8 1 y r a u Jan 5:00 pm

as closely as possible in the laboratory,” says Eric Seeling, the engineer responsible for its design. “The rig can perform long-term endurance and development tests, reproducing the effect on hydraulic rod seals of, for example, 25,000 landings of an aircraft or a million upstrokes on a press. In particular, it excels in aerospace applications where it can check parameters such as braking or lateral forces on landing gear and even simulate life-like knocking caused by uneven runways; what might be called a bumpy landing.”

A resource for the Trelleborg Sealing Solutions international R&D network, over 35 years of testing experience went into the design of the test bench. The entire bench was installed in a concrete well so that vibrations can be isolated from the surrounding building. The drive unit was set up in a separate room so that energy otherwise lost through emissions can be used in an environmentally friendly manner to reheat the building.

The test bench is suitable for seals from 4 to 16 inches in diameter and can test a complete sealing configuration in a single test construction, replicating the pressure between the primary and secondary seals realistically. Travelling at speeds of up to 3.3 feet per second or frequencies up to 10 Hz, it can generate movements and pressure patterns

in sinus waves, trapezoidal forms and even freely modeled patterns.

One of the test bench’s more novel features is a lateral force cylinder mounted at the bottom of the bench.

Capable of exerting forces

Page 53

of up to 225 kN, it can place permanent radial loads on the seals, or, depending on the stroke, exert dynamic loads. Another special feature is the ability to simulate different atmospheric

temperatures between -76 degrees F and +194 degrees F. Results can be fully documented, allowing customers to provide their clients with proof of performance related to prescribed parameters. b

recent sommers appointments Sommers Motor Generator Sales Ltd. continues to build on its regional service capabilities with two recent appointments to its sales team.

Sommers General Manager Chris McGregor has introduced Pierre Gallant as Atlantic Region Branch Manager in Dieppe, New Brunswick, and Fred Lawrence as Regional Sales Representative for Southwestern Ontario.

Pierre Gallant Leads Dieppe Branch Gallant brings his extensive experience in generator sales and service to Sommers, including hands-on knowledge of the many Lister-Petter products featured in the Sommers line-up. Based in the Dieppe area since 1994, Gallant has travelled throughout the Maritimes to support prime power and standby systems for customers. “My focus for the next little while will be getting to know the rural communities we serve. These municipalities have shown a growing need and interest in emergency planning and in offering a better quality of life for their constituents. Sommers has been a real leader in helping local government in other parts of the country, so I’ll be working with our contractors and public works planners to put that experience to work here.”

Gallant says that he was well aware of Sommers’ reputation for

RAMSEY COMPANY INC.

customer service before joining the company. His expectations were confirmed through his recent training sessions at the Sommers head office.

“The service mentality is well founded at Sommers. You see it in everything they do at the head office – it’s central to the company culture.”

Gallant has wasted no time putting his imprint on Sommers sales in the Atlantic region. His first orders were recently delivered, providing two 250 kW systems to the Magdalen Islands.

Fred Lawrence Supports Southwestern Ontario Fred Lawrence has seen every side of Sommers through his 30 years as an electrical professional in Southwestern Ontario. As the owner and partner of several electrical contracting businesses in Goderich and Sarnia, and as a former Ontario Hydro Inspector, Lawrence has worked closely with Sommers staff and management through three generations.

From his current base in the town of Blenheim,

January 2013 Lawrence will be serving farm, residential and industrial customers “between the lakes” from London to Windsor. As a contractor, Lawrence says he has seen a shift in the needs of farmers in this highly agricultural area.

While many of the PTOdriven generators that he sold years ago are still operating, new farming technology now demands generators with more advanced controls to deliver cleaner, consistent power.

Lawrence has also noted growing interest in standby generators system from rural homeowners.

“People in small towns enjoy the same consumer technologies that big city people take for granted,” he says. “But with an aging utility grid, the reliability of our power lines can be a little suspect out here – especially with the ice storms that go with our mild climate!”

Chris McGregor welcomed these appointments as an important step in Sommers’ plans for continued growth.

“We’re known for custom building power solutions to fit the individual customer. Fred and Pierre will help us provide more of that local insight that lets us be proactive in delivering the products and services our customers need.” b

Minding Your Business by Kathryn Thorpe Klassen

Happy New Year!

W

elcome to 2013. If you are reading this it means that the world didn’t end on December

21st along with the Mayan work on our new year’s come up with a list of the calendar. We all get to keep resolutions. top things they’d like to say on trucking and we have I’ve asked around to to their dispatch. yet another 12 months to a number of drivers and If you’re a driver and you’ve never uttered something similar to the following phrases to your dispatch, you may either want to hug your dispatcher for being so fantastic or learn to speak your mind a little more.

If you’re a driver and you’ve said each and every one of these to your current management team, then maybe you will want to resolve to speak your mind a little bit less, or find a new job and/or dispatcher…

Finally, if you are a dispatcher and you’ve had any more than a couple of the following thrown at you by a frustrated driver, you may want to consider a ride along to see what life is really like behind the wheel.

If you think you can do better, why don’t you get behind the wheel and deliver this load yourself?

You’ve obviously never sat in a traffic jam on the 401 before have you?

Give me some sort of clue what I’m doing after my unload so that I’m not sitting around waiting for you to get around to it while I could be making miles, and therefore making money.

January 2013 Just because the highway reopened doesn’t mean that the three feet of snow that fell overnight has been cleared from the trailer deck, the truck stop parking lot or the side streets needed to get to said highway. If I say I can’t get out yet, I can’t. I want to make money as much as you want me to make it and I’ll go when I can.

Don’t ask me more than once a year to deadhead anywhere to rescue that trailer that you forgot about after it broke down, because it isn’t going to pay well and I have bills too.

Don’t whine to me about how you have to get out of the office on time tonight due to your social life and obligations when I’m sitting a thousand miles away waiting for an answer from you. I’m on the road 25 days out of every month. I don’t have a social life.

Don’t ask me to run over my hours. If I choose to do so that’s fine. It’s my butt on the line, not yours.

You’re supposed to be the one looking out for my best interests.

Don’t try to skimp on my paycheque. I have plenty of time in my bunk each night to calculate how many miles I’ve driven, what layover pay I’m owed and still keep my eye out for a better job.

Don’t act like I tried to blow the turbo in my truck on purpose. Sitting around the dealership for two days over the weekend waiting for the part when I’m 2000 miles from home with a

hot load on the deck isn’t exactly my ideal way to spend a weekend either.

Why do you act surprised when I call in from time off and wonder what my load plans are? I told you I’d be back on the 1st of the month. Did you not believe me? I’m sorry I didn’t spend my entire holiday texting you to make sure you remembered who I am and that I work for you.

When I said it wasn’t safe to travel I really did mean it. Now I’m in the ditch thanks to black ice and your precious load is gonna be even later than it would have been had I waited for the sand trucks to go by and the sun to come out.

I just ran four long days to get this load delivered.

I need sleep now. Please avoid calling me for the next eight hours. Unless you have a really great load for me that pays a bundle.

Then by all means call.

The truck and the driver both require refuelling to keep going. This may involve stopping for more than five minutes. Deal with it.

I’m not a customs official, but I do have to deal with them. It would be fantastic if you could inform your customers that they do need to have paperwork for me if they expect me to move their freight across the line.

Don’t forget, truckers talk, and I know all your company’s dirty little secrets. I could probably get you in more trouble than you could ever get me in! b

Kenworth Offers Advice On Spec’ing For Mixers In Canada A mixer is a highly specialized piece of equipment, which is expected to put in a number of years of service. To ensure efficiency over the life of the vehicle, it’s important to spec wisely.

A key consideration to spec’ing is the local length and weight regulations since these will dictate the axle spacing needed to maximize payload. Individual provinces require compliance with their specific weight laws. This has a big influence on how the axles are set up and spaced.

“For example, the intent of SPIF (Safe Productive Infrastructure-Friendly) law in Ontario is to spread the weight evenly over the wheelbase, which defines where the steer axle goes and has a direct impact on frame dimensions,” says Alan Fennimore, vocational marketing manager for Kenworth Truck Company in Kirkland, Wash.

“In most cases, a set-back steer axle or a twin steer is a common mixer spec.

The Kenworth T800 is an example of a chassis designed specifically to meet the needs of mixer customers with its set-back and twin steer front axle options.” The Kenworth T800 twin steer model,

which may be more suitable for certain provincial weight requirements, is based off the set-back axle T800 with the second steer axle located 72 inches rear of the front steer axle. The maximum front GAWR is 40,000 pounds.

In some provinces, mixer trucks can be specified shorter and lighter with a setback axle to make them more maneuverable on jobsites. The Kenworth T800 short hood and the Kenworth T440 are examples of trucks that work well for these mixer applications.

“You may need to spec lift and or steering axles to distribute more weight of the mixer over more axles to operate them in provinces that have limits on the amount of weight each axle or each wheel may carry,” notes Fennimore.

Depending on the weight carried by the steer axle and your provincial laws, you may also need to spec wide-based front tires. “This would require a 425/65R22.5 tire size to get to the 20,000-pound rating on the front axle,” says Fennimore.

Kenworth dealers, Fennimore adds, work with customers to develop specifications that not only meet provincial regulations, but

also enhance productivity taking into consideration specific operating conditions. Here are some brief examples: In Alberta and British Columbia, to maximize the payload, dealers recommend mixers specified with, among other things, twin steer axles, tandem drive axles, and a booster axle with a maximum wheelbase of 278 inches, a front axle spread of 72 inches and a rear-axle spread of 60 inches.

In Manitoba, to maximize payload, dealers recommend twin steerable 20,000-pound steer axles and 46,000-pound drive axles. However, provincial regulations prohibit booster axles.

In Ontario, because the SPIF law requires several considerations for a mixer operator – dealers suggest choosing automated transmissions; rear-engine power takeoff (REPTO); back-of-cab exhaust to maximize frame space for chutes and water tanks; a minimum wheelbase of 6 meters; a front axle spread of 72 inches minimum or 106 inches maximum; and a rear-axle spread of 72 inches maximum.

In the Atlantic provinces of New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island, dealers recommend a rear-engine power takeoff (REPTO); twin steerable 20,000-pound steer axles and 46,000-pound drive axles; right-hand, back-ofcab 100-gallon fuel tank to maximize frame rail space; a maximum wheelbase of 278 inches; a front axle spread of 72 inches maximum; and a rear-axle spread of 60 inches.

In Quebec, they suggest twin steerable 16,000-pound steer axles and two 23,000-pound drive axles, in order to meet a provincial regulation requiring the additional axle to be attached to the steering wheel.

In Saskatchewan, dealers suggest using 445/65R22.5 size tires on a single or twin steerable 20,000-pound steer axle for maximum flotation.

“Of course, other provincial restrictions may apply to your operation, and your operating conditions may require different considerations,” Fennimore adds. “Then there’s the fact that provincial regulations often list limits using metric system measurements, while manufacturers may list the measurements of the truck and its key parts using the English measurement system. That’s why you should visit a local Kenworth dealer for a more complete review of provincial regulations and your operating conditions.”

2010 Engines – Making Room for SCR It’s especially important to understand how the 2010 federal engine emissions standards may require some changes to be made when spec’ing for new truck purchases compared to your current mixer spec, which may include a 2007 emission-compliant or older engine.

Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) mixes a reductant – most commonly a solution of urea and deionized water known as diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) – with the oxides of nitrogen (NOx) in exhaust

Page T-3 gases. The exhaust then passes through a catalyst, where the DEF reacts with the NOx to convert it into nitrogen and water.

According to Fennimore, it is important for operators to consider DEF tank capacity and placement. “To support SCR system integration, Kenworth provides a range of exhaust and DEF tank sizes and locations designed for mixers. This helps mixer operators maintain their wheelbase and body configuration when spec’ing Kenworth trucks with 2010 EPA-compliant engines,” Fennimore says.

“For mixers where truck frame space is often critical, Kenworth provides a 5.6-gallon DEF tank with a clear back of cab option unique to the industry. The tank provides a range of 800 to 1,200 miles between refilling with the range dependent on duty-cycle and fuel economy. When combined with an in-cab battery box and a Kenworth SCR and DPF package located under the cab access step, there’s essentially no impact to the customer as far as valuable frame space compared to a pre-2010 emissions truck,” he said.

Not all SCR technology engines are the same, however. “An aftertreatment catalyst using copper zeolite is more efficient than one with iron zeolite at reducing NOx at normal engine operating temperatures,” says Fennimore.

“That’s why engines using copper zeolite may offer better fuel economy than engines using iron zeolite.” PACCAR engines and Cummins engines both use copper zeolite.

A Green Option: Natural Gas A green option is natural gas. While it does not have the high energy density of diesel fuel, CNG does provide a cleaner burning fuel without the need for complex emission reduction technology.

Natural gas is domestically produced, so it reduces reliance on foreign oil. The drawback can be a higher initial engine and fuel storage system cost. However, an estimated $2-plus savings per gallon on natural gas compared to diesel makes the ROI very attractive, Fennimore says.

Some provinces may offer grant programs to help offset the additional cost of Continued on page T-4

the alternative fuel engine technology and fueling stations. Plus, by deleting the additional weight associated with the SCR emission control systems, a CNGpowered mixer may be able to carry more payload over a comparable dieselpowered unit. But that depends on the distance the mixer must travel each day and your choice of fuel.

Some operations may require specifying CNGpowered trucks with additional fuel tanks, which could offset any weight savings realized with the deletion of the emission control systems. Plus, if you choose liquefied natural gas over CNG fuel because of its higher energy density, the LNG-powered engine employs a compression ignited system, which uses 5 percent diesel as the pilot ignition. And this requires the use of SCR technology and a diesel particulate filter (DPF).

If the mixer must carry additional fuel to extend its range or its operating time between fuelings, some provinces, like British Columbia, do offer greater weight allowances on some natural-gas powered trucks, which would offset any weight penalties caused by the additional fuel tanks.

Natural gas-powered engines, such as the Cummins Westport ISL G and the ISX12 G engines, are available for heavy duty

Your Truck & Trailer Connection, Since 1971 Class 8 trucks, including the T660, T800, T800 short hood, W900S, and the T440.

The ISL G, which runs on compressed natural gas, is rated at 320 hp and 1,000 lb-ft of torque. It uses a maintenance-free, threeway catalyst and is 2010 EPA- and CARB-compliant without the use of SCR technology or a DPF. The ISL G is available with an Allison 3000 or 4000 series transmission.

The ISX12 G, which can run on CNG or LNG, comes with a range of ratings to 400 hp and 1,450 ft-lbs of torque, optional engine brake and manual and automatic transmission capability to meet customer needs. (The ISX12 G was introduced earlier in 2012 and should be ready for order and delivery in early 2013.)

It’s important to work with your truck salesperson and mixer body builder to assess which fuel storage system – CNG or LNG – will work best for you.

“Your decision may be determined by the availability of CNG or LNG fuel in your area,” Fennimore says.

“Currently, CNG is the preferred fuel storage system for mixer applications.”

The Drivetrain Whether operators choose natural gas- or diesel fuel-powered engines, big horsepower is generally not a requirement for mixer applications. “You should get just enough

horsepower to do the job,” says Kenworth’s Fennimore. “Engines with 320 to 350 hp should be plenty for most applications. Extra horsepower just uses more fuel, puts more strain on the rest of the drivetrain, costs more and adds weight.”

Truck models with the versatility to span class 7 and class 8 ratings, such as the set-back axle Kenworth T440 and T470, can offer operators the widest array of choices to build mixers that will meet their operational needs, Fennimore says.

“With the Kenworth T440, for example, operators have a choice of front axle ratings from 12,000 to 22,000 pounds, rear axles from 21,000-pound single to 46,000-pound dual drives and three frame rail sizes to match strength and weight requirements,” he adds. “Plus, the T440 can be spec’d with the PACCAR PX-8, which offers a range of power choices from 260 to 350 hp and from 600 to 1,000 lb-ft of torque.”

In cases where additional power and payload is required, the Cummins ISL9 is available with ratings up to 380 hp and 1,300 lb-ft of torque. When additional power is required for a larger mixing drum, or where weight is not as much an issue, a PACCAR MX 12.9-liter or Cummins ISX11.9 engine offers excellent performance. In addition, the larger engines will

last longer. These medium displacement engines are available in the set-forward W900S and the set-back T800 short hood.

According to Fennimore, the rear axle ratios should be evenly matched with the transmission so that engine speed is around 1,600 rpm at highway speeds. “You should also be able to go as slow as 1.5 mph at 1,400 or more rpm,” he says. “A 4.30:1 ratio with 11R22.5 tires and the -9ALL transmission works well. With a 6-speed automatic transmission, use a 4.88:1 or lower ratio.”

Automatic or Manual Transmission The transmission you put behind the engine needs a wide ratio range to have good startability and gradability around jobsites and on the highway.

“The Eaton 9ALL is a common transmission spec for mixers. It has a really low ratio for crawling while pouring curbs or other continuous pours. But there’s also a high enough top end for traveling at highway speeds,” he says.

In addition to the standard manual transmission, Eaton offers the vocational series of UltraShift(R) Plus available specifically designed for mixer usage.

This automated manual includes the following vocational specific features: Hill Hold and Creep Modes.

CSA Changes Take Effect The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration recently said that, effective immediately, it has activated previously announced changes to its Safety Measurement System ratings program, including adoption of its controversial proposal to step up hazardous materials compliance and elimination of a perceived enforcement bias against flatbed carriers.

In a recent teleconference call, FMCSA administrator Anne Ferro said the agency’s website now reflects a total of 11 changes to Compliance, Safety, Accountability program, including creation of a standalone hazardous materials compliance carrier rating category and rolling cargoSecurement violations into the vehicle maintenance category.

FMCSA said when it first unveiled the changes in August that the CSA tweaks would only cause “modest” changes to carriers’ safety-rating scores, but that that would be “enough to sharpen our focus on the carriers that need our focus.”

“These safety measurement system enhancements reflect FMCSA’s commitment to listening to our stakeholders and researching and analyzing enhancements in the name of safety,” Ferro said. “By strengthening our cornerstone enforcement program, we are continuing to raise the bar for truck and bus safety.”

Other changes included changing the name of the Fatigued Driving Behavior Analysis and Safety Improvement Category, or BASIC, to the hours-ofservice (HOS) Compliance BASIC, removing 1-to-5 mile-per-hour speeding violations from carrier and driver safety scores, and assigning the same CSA severity weights to paper logs and electronic logging device violations.

The changes are being applied to FMCSA’s monthly update of carriers’ SMS scores. The agency generally updates carriers’ scores on or about the 21st of each month, but chose to update the December scores early using the newly uploaded changes. b

Letter To OTA: Many Courteous Truckers Give Peace Of Mind The following is a letter to OTA sent by a cyclist visiting Ontario, who wishes to thank the many courteous and friendly truck drivers he encountered during his journeys: I recently spent two months holidaying near Montreal River Harbour [highway 17 north of Sault Ste Marie]. While there, I was cycling almost daily on the section of highway between Mica Bay and Montreal River Harbour.

The purpose of this communication is to express my thanks (through you and your organization) to the transport drivers who regularly frequent that section of highway (and) for the courtesy almost all of the drivers showed to me as a cyclist on the open road. I have carried with

me in my mind, images of drivers pulling out (whenever possible) to give me more air space as they passed me. As my time in that area passed, the courtesy shown by most drivers gave me as a cyclist peace of mind as I shared the road with some very big rigs.

Also, the acknowledgement of me on the road when some drivers gave me a friendly ‘toot toot’ with their horns, was an acknowledgement that they were aware of me and that we all are part of the travel / transport scene on a highway.

So, again, I (hope) you somehow share my gratitude with those drivers for their courtesy which contributed to me more fully enjoy my holiday in northern Ontario.

Cheers, Bill Allcock b

PSI & Spartan Chassis Launch New Concept Chassis at RVIA Tradeshow Power Solutions International, Inc. (“PSI”) (OTCBB:PSIX) and Spartan Motors, Inc.(Nasdaq:SPAR) recently announced the launch of a new Class A Front Engine Gas (FEG) concept chassis featuring PSI’s newly designed 8.8-liter engine. The new chassis, code named the Extol, is designed to meet increased demand in the RV market for greater power performance and for gas powered engines. Both companies showcased these products at the RVIA National RV Trade Show, which took place November 27--29 in Louisville, Kentucky.

“PSI is excited about presenting our newly developed on-highway applications through this collaboration with Spartan Chassis, a leader in the specialty vehicle category,” said Jeremy Lessaris, Director of Marketing at PSI. Recreational vehicle OEMs have been frustrated with their engine options, which until now have been underpowered. Because of the considerable weight, RVs require significant torque for

pickup and to avoid chugging or spitting on hills. As a result, power compromises are problematic.

Powered by a PSI 8.8-liter engine that provides 430 HP and 512 lb.-ft of torque (@ 3400 RPM), the Extol chassis offers the power performance that end-users seek in a package developed to capitalize on the growth of smaller Class A recreational vehicles (22K to 28K GVWR). The newly designed and engineered engine offers 20% acrossthe-board improvements in power and 15% better fuel-efficiency over its predecessor, General Motors 8.1-liter.

The Extol also provides superior handling and superior ride quality, achieved through Spartan’s proprietary suspension and new Compression Fluid Strut. Spartan Chassis has been known for decades as a leader in the Class A diesel market. This Extol concept chassis is an excellent brand extension which should expand our product portfolio and fill what we

perceive as a gap in the RV chassis market,” said Tom Gorman, Chief Operating Officer of Spartan Motors.

“This new chassis development illustrates both our long-term commitment to the RV business and, more importantly, our interest to continually find new business growth opportunities for our OEM partners in the RV industry.”

PSI’s high-performance 8.8-liter “big block” replacement was launched at the 2011 RVIA Expo. The new engine is capable of fulfilling power, efficiency, emissions and fuel-flexibility needs across a wide range of applications beyond RVs, including school buses, waste-hauling trucks and light-duty uses.

The heavy-duty, durable block includes the following design features: • A significantly stronger crankcase and a forged and induction hardened crankshaft that enable delivery of 1,000 ft-lb of torque.

• An intake manifold that incorporates a tuned, long-runner to increase torque • High-flow, fast-burn cylinder heads that ensure a full burn to reduce. b

automatic and automated manual transmissions being spec’d for mixer use,” Fennimore notes. “With the electronic controls on the newer automatics, the shifting is very smooth and responsive. They’re easier on drivers and reduce stress on the drivetrain, and the truck can keep up in traffic much easier.”

Operators may also want to consider a transmission that can automatically select between econ-

omy and performance shift schedules based on the vehicle’s actual payload and its operating grade “The addition of Allison’s load-based shift scheduling (LBSS) can allow the mode button on the transmission’s shift selector to be programmed for controlling other vehicle functions, such as body builder functions or power takeoff (PTO) operation,” Fennimore says. “The economy mode is used when the truck travels on

level terrain with an empty or diminishing load. The performance mode is used when the vehicle is heavily loaded or on a grade.”

Operators can choose LBSS on select Allison transmissions, such as the company’s 3000 and 4000 series. The Allison 3000 series is limited to a GVW of 60,000 pounds, and is available on the Kenworth T440 and W900S mixers only with the PACCAR PX-8 or Cummins ISL9 engines.

One additional Allison transmission gaining popularity in mixer applications is the 4700 RDS, which offers a 7.63 to 1 low first gear and optional second reverse. This helps give drivers extra control while pouring curb or backing down that steep incline to pour a footing. Another 4700 RDS feature is a converter lockup mode in first gear, which reduces excess heat being returned to the cooling system from a slipping torque converter without this feature.

Front Engine or Rear Engine PTO The PTO must come directly from the engine in order to provide enough power for the mixer system. Whether you use front engine or a rear engine PTO depends on the chassis configuration. Fennimore recommends a rear engine PTO any time you can make it fit.

But in those areas where the front pedestal must be mounted immediately back of cab, a front engine PTO is the only alternative. “A front-mounted PTO makes sense in provinces like Ontario, where the weight laws give you an incentive to get more load on the steer axle,” he says. The Kenworth T470 – with its full parent rails front frame configuration – is an excellent model for FEPTO applications.

“With 2010 engines rejecting more heat, a larger radiator is needed to cool

January 2013 the same horsepower. In cases where high horsepower is required, both the Kenworth T800 FEPTO and the Kenworth C500 models offer great cooling capacity,” Fennimore says.

“If you spec an automatic transmission, you’ll definitely want a rear-engine PTO because it will provide 30 percent higher output speed due to the gearing at the flywheel,” he says. “This allows much less slip in the torque converter when you are crawling along and want to keep the drum speed up to pour the concrete. Too much slip in the torque converter can lead to overheating the transmission or the engine’s cooling system.”

For high PTO torque requirements, the PACCAR MX offers 612 lb-ft of output torque from the rear engine PTO. “Kenworth customers in Canada have been reporting that the Paccar MX with a REPTO has been a real winning combination for low fuel consumption, reliability and quiet operation,” Fennimore says.

Location Issues Mixer specifications are also influenced by the type of delivery locations for the concrete. The heavier the load and the rougher the terrain, the more the chassis and suspension need to be beefed up.

“If your mixer chassis needs to get into some pretty rough jobsites,” says Fennimore, “be sure to spec a suspension with a lot of articulation.” Good examples are the Chalmers 854 series and the Hendrickson HAULMAAX(R) tandem suspensions, which both offer good off-road articulation and durability.

The frame rail specs are impacted by the type

of mixer barrel used. “If the barrel has a subframe welded to the chassis rails that is approved by the OEM, a single 11-5/8-inch frame is fine,” says Fennimore. “You’ll want bolted to the frame at back of the cab a transition plate, which goes as far forward as possible. This help ease stresses on the rails.

“But if the mixer pedestals are mounted directly to the frame rails, you’ll need an inserted frame of at least 10-3/4 inches,” he says. “Remember, it’s not just strength you’re looking for, but stiffness, too.

And, if you have more than one pusher axle, an inserted rail is recommended to help withstand the higher side loads.”

Some of Kenworth’s mixer-specific options from the factory are fully huckbolted frames, factory installation of up to three pushers, and pre-punched holes in the frame rails to assist body builders with installation, among other options.

Another thing to remember about the frame: mixer manufacturers often request crossmembers in specific locations. It’s a good idea to check with them before the truck is built. Kenworth offers a custom frame layout option that keep specific areas of the back of cab clear for customer-installed options.

The type of construction sites typically visited by your mixers will affect the amount of traction required. “I always recommend side-to-side differential locks in both rear axles for traction off the pavement,” says Fennimore. “In areas with sandy soil, we’ve seen operators spec’ing a 6x4 configuraContinued on page T-7

tion with active tire-pressure control systems (such as Eaton’s central tire inflation system or CTIS), which allow the driver to reduce tire pressure when off-road to obtain the needed traction in the sand.”

The 2010-compliant emissions engines used in the U.S. mixer market typically use an engine-mounted air cleaner, which does not require a pre-cleaner.

But in dusty conditions, a Filter Minder® air restriction gauge mounted on the air cleaner should be ordered and checked on a regular basis. Another option is to order the optional Filter Minder gauge in the dash to monitor the air cleaner performance from inside the cab. Kenworth is standard with a pop-up gauge on the air cleaner under the hood.

Weight Watching Weight is an issue with mixers, but you have to save a lot to be able to haul an extra half yard of concrete, or about 2,000 pounds. The cost of lightweight components has to be considered.

You can slim down by spec’ing components – such as wheels, air tanks, and clutch housings – in aluminum rather than steel. “Use the smallest fuel tank you can get away with,” Fennimore adds.

“Most mixer applications burn about 4 to 4-1/2 gallons per hour. So, a 56- to 75-gallon tank is usually plenty of fuel for one shift.”

Fennimore suggests engines such as the Cummins ISL9 to save up to 800 pounds compared with a 13-liter block in areas that do not require long runs away from the batch plant or have minimal steep grades. “With 350 horsepower and 1,250 lb-ft of torque, these 9-liter engines offer the power most operators will need.” Also,

We’re working on our next issue!

AD DEADLINE: January 18, 2013 5:00 pm

Your Truck & Trailer Connection, Since 1971 the ISL engines can be mated to the Allison 3000 series automatic transmissions, which will save an additional 250 pounds over the Allison 4000 series transmissions. One of the limitations of the 3000 series is reduced payload capacity of up to 62,000 pounds GVW in a mixer application.

Another option for saving additional weight, though more expensive, is spec’ing disc brakes on the steer and drive axles. This option can reduce another 100-150 pounds off the chassis weight as well as dramatically reducing stopping distances and annual maintenance costs compared to drum brakes.

Going with an in-cab battery box, which Kenworth offers, and a deleted passenger seat can eliminate between 90 and 150 pounds, depending on selecting either a 2- or 3-battery option. The 3-battery option is recommended in colder climates.

Valuable pounds can also be saved in your suspension selection. “The difference can be as high as 400 pounds,” Fennimore says of the different suspension options. “You can leave shock absorbers off the rear because the weight of the mixer means you will never be running light.”

Using wide-base “super single” tires instead of duals on the rear can save hundreds of pounds in wheel and tire weight.

“The trade-off is that you get a narrower track if you stick with standard track axles,” he says. “You can go with a wider track axle, but then you may not have the option to go back to duals later because the dual configuration will now be over width.”

Driver Performance Items With more trucking companies vying for good drivers, operators can’t afford to neglect driver comfort and driver performance-related items, Fennimore says.

When it comes to visibility, Fennimore says try to spec as many windows as possible. “In addition to the standard Kenworth DayLite(R) doors, consider rear corner windows behind the doors,” he says.

“It’s a good idea to mount the tailpipe behind the cab rather than at the side to keep out of the way of the corner windows.

“I suggest picking lowreplacement cost windshields when they’re available,” he adds. “Most mixer fleets replace at least one windshield side per truck per year. Two-piece flat-glass windshields with roped-in seals can be replaced in half an hour for a typical total cost of under a hundred dollars. This can save thousands of dollars over the life of the truck.”

For a different look and more aerodynamics, select the two-piece curved glass option (one piece is also available).

To make mixers with lift axles easier to drive, it’s smart to get a six-channel ABS system. “Lift axles, especially steerable ones, are normally over-braked for the load,” Fennimore says.

“By including them in the ABS system, it’s much easier for the driver to avoid locking them up and flat spotting the tires.” The Bendix(R) ESP* (Electronic Stability Program) system is available with both the bridge formula mixer configuration and with the standard mixer bodies.

To offer drivers the best turn performance and road feel, Fennimore recommends dual steering gears, rather than a large single steering gear with a steering assist ram. The dual system usually requires less maintenance than a single system with assist.

Assist cylinders tend to be high maintenance and are typically more prone to leak or fail.

Two additional driver performance items that Fennimore recommends are the Kenworth Extended Day Cab and Kenworth QuietCab(R) package.

“The spacious Kenworth Extended Day Cab enhances driver comfort with an additional 6 inches of length and 5 inches of cab height compared to Kenworth’s traditional day cab. It also has 2 more inches behind the wheel, additional leg room, up to 21 degrees of driver’ seat recline, and 2 extra cubic feet of storage behind the driver’s seat,” he says.

“The Kenworth QuietCab option helps to significantly reduce in-cab noise by two decibels, or by almost 50 percent, compared to Kenworth’s standard cab.

These options may help to reduce driver fatigue, enhance productivity, and aid driver retention,” concludes Fennimore. b

Canada-US Safety Ratings: Reciprocity Cuts Both Ways The dictionary definition of reciprocity is the relation or policy in commercial dealings between countries by which corresponding advantages or privileges are granted by each country to the citizens of the other.

In plain English, and in relation to Canada-US trucking, for example, what reciprocity usually means is that we’ll accept what you do if you’ll accept what we do. It does not mean that everything needs to be harmonized, but it infers that at the end of the day while rules and mechanisms may be different, final outcomes are more or less the same. Where this is so and where reciprocal agreements between Canada and the United States can be worked out, it is usually a good thing. But things don’t always work out as planned.

Take Canada-US safety ratings reciprocity for example. Way back in 1994, Transport Canada and the USDOT signed a Memorandum of Understanding that each country would be responsible for monitoring a motor carrier’s compliance and safety performance in the carrier’s home jurisdic-

tion. The MOU also obliged both countries to endeavour to establish mutually compatible safety rating and audit programs. Fast forward to 2007 when an FMCSA “Canadian Issues” study concluded both countries share similar vision statements, missions and objectives to reduce truck collisions and recommended they work together to establish a safety ratings reciprocity agreement.

Under the agreement a Canadian carrier who operates throughout Canada and the United States would have its safety performance activity (collisions, inspections and convictions) in both countries collected, calculated and monitored by its home province. Under that scenario, a carrier would no longer need both a provincial and an FMCSA profile, or be subject to both provincial and FMCSA compliance reviews.

The administrative burden on both government and the industry would be reduced. Safety rating reciprocity was even identified as a deliverable under the Security and Prosperity Partnership initiative.

Work continued and in 2008 the FMCSA and CC-

MTA agreed in principle to reciprocally recognize each other’s safety ratings.

A bilateral working group on motor carrier data exchange – which is a key to the whole thing actually working -- was established.

A number of provinces dropped the requirement for US carriers to register in their jurisdiction and stopped keeping profiles of those carriers. They did, however, begin sending the data on the US carriers’ safety performance in their provinces to the FMCSA. Information also started flowing the other way as the provinces began to receive data from FMCSA on the US performance of Canadian carriers and using that data to populate the provincial carrier profiles.

But then the wheels started to come off. There were a number of technical issues that were difficult to resolve. Legal issues emerged which prevented FMCSA from using Canadian data to rate US carriers. But most important, it seems, was an apparent change of heart on the whole concept of reciprocity by the FMCSA which -- not incidentally -- coincided with the agency’s transition from Safestat to its Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) program. CSA differs from the Canadian profile systems in some important

areas – e.g., pointing all violations from roadside inspections (not just out of service violations as is the case in Canada) on the carrier profile; and, not accounting for fault on the carrier’s collision profile.

In the end, FMCSA would not give up its authority to monitor Canadian carriers and/or to conduct compliance reviews on Canadian soil.

The Canadian provinces moved forward on safety ratings reciprocity in good faith.

Anyone involved in the CCMTA process knows this. The provinces invested significant effort and resources in this process. While some may still cling to the hope that all is not lost and that an agreement can still be achieved, the reality is that the prospects for safety ratings reciprocity are

Page T-9 zilch. And, until that is acknowledged and resolved, an unleveled playing field exists between domestic and US carriers in eight of the ten provinces.

Currently, four provinces are using US inspection and collision data in their carrier profiles -British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. These provinces are (as they have done since 2007) still collecting and sending information on US carriers operating in their jurisdictions to FMCSA, even though FMCSA is not using the data to populate CSA profiles.

Only two provinces (Ontario and Quebec) require US carriers to register to operate in their jurisdictions. As a result, no one is monitoring and creat-

ing a history on US carriers’ activities while they are operating in the other eight provinces.

For CTA and the provincial associations this is not acceptable. With the failure to achieve a reciprocity agreement, US carriers should be required to register in all provinces they operate in, and all provinces should maintain carrier profiles of the US carriers that operate in their jurisdictions. Our motivation is nothing more than to address an inequity that has arisen as a result of the failure to achieve a reciprocal agreement on safety ratings. Reciprocity (and safety) now demands that US carriers be treated in Canada the same as Canadian carriers are treated in the United States. b

Mack Supports Disaster Relief In New York City Mack Trucks recently presented a $25,000 check to New York City Commissioner of Sanitation John J. Doherty, to support relief efforts following Hurricane Sandy.

The donation will go to the Mayor’s Fund to Advance New York City, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to community and economic improvement, and will be used to meet immediate needs for food, water and supplies, as well as long-term relief and restoration projects.

“New York City has long been an important refuse and heavy-duty truck customer for Mack Trucks,” said Kevin Flaherty, president of Mack Trucks North American Sales and Marketing.

“We value our relationship with New York, and we want to assist them as they deal with enormous demand for public services in the

aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.”

Mack’s relationship with New York City stretches back more than 100 years to 1900 when the Mack brothers incorporated the company and began manufacturing their first heavy-duty vehicle, a 20-passenger touring bus aptly named the “Manhattan,” in a Brooklyn factory. New York City was a customer of Mack Trucks as early as 1911, and the New York Departments of Sanitation and Transportation together have more than 6,000 MACK vehicles currently in service.

“On behalf of Mayor Bloomberg, I would like to thank Mack Trucks for their very generous donation to New York City’s Hurricane Sandy relief efforts,” Doherty said. “Our city was hit hard by the super storm and its incredible

surge. Entire communities were devastated.

Lives were lost. And many New Yorkers face years of rebuilding. But our DSNY workers were out citywide, many of them in Mack trucks, helping families recover and hauling more than 338,000 tons of storm debris to date. We really appreciate Mack’s continued support.”

As one of the most damaging storms ever to hit the northeastern U.S., Hurricane Sandy caused public and private losses of approximately $15 billion that will not be covered by private insurance, according to reports from New York City.

“New York is very important to our company and vital to the economic health of the entire nation,” Flaherty said. “For more than100 years, our trucks have been helping to build our country, and its Mack’s privilege to continue that tradition and support one of America’s greatest cities as they put the damage created by Sandy behind them.” b

Delphi Demo’s Latest Safety Connectors At Airbag 2012 Delphi Automotive (NYSE: DLPH) showcased its portfolio of connector technologies that enable occupant safety systems at the upcoming Airbag 2012, International Symposium & Exhibition on Sophisticated Car Occupant Safety Systems, on December 3-5 at the Karlsruhe Congress Center. Delphi displayed the latest technology focused on connecting safety restraint systems (SRS), including sealed squib connectors for pedestrian safety systems.

With its recent acquisition of the FCI Group’s Motorized Vehicles Division, Delphi is the world leader for connecting wiring systems to airbags and other pyrotechnic devices used in vehicles and has the broadest range of SRS connectors available on the market.

Additionally, the company offers vehicle manufacturers the flexibility to meet specific configurations, from connector pigtails to jumper harnesses, as well as global engineering, manufacturing capability and product expertise.

“Airbags have become standard equipment on passenger vehicles and can meanwhile have more than 10 applications in a car and each of them

needs a specialized electrical architecture in order to keep the occupants safe,” said Liam Butterworth, President, Delphi Connection Systems. “Delphi is a key innovator in developing these mission critical safety components due to its engineering competency and has a global footprint to service the local market needs.”

First commercially available range of sealed squib connectors for a new generation of pedestrian safety systems In 2009, pedestrian safety became an integral part of the Euro NCAP rating scheme for new vehicles. As a result, a new generation of SRS systems is emerging, located beyond the vehicle cockpit. Such applications demand connectors that can reliably deliver, while withstanding extremes of temperature, humidity, vibration and the potential ingress of moisture and dust.

With a history of developing innovative connectors, Delphi has successfully introduced the first commercially available range of sealed squib connectors designed for use in challenging environments, such as pedestrian safety and battery cut-off systems within engine compartments. Delphi’s

sealed squib connectors are particularly suited to a range of pedestrian safety systems currently being developed and implemented by major OEMs. These include ‘hood lift’ applications, which are used in vehicles where hard structures such as the engine block are located in close proximity to the hood. In the event of pedestrian collision, the use of pyrotechnic devices on both sides of the hood allows a softer impact zone to be created, minimizing the risk of serious injury.

Delphi has also created the scoop-proof AK-2 standard, and the world’s first squib connector with an integrated grounding element, the AK-2+ ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) squib. Besides enhancing reliability and cutting assembly costs, the AK-2+ ESD squib eliminates potential misfiring caused by electro static discharge with completely integrated grounding, thus allowing safe traceability of grounding.

These sealed squib connectors offer the high standards of performance, durability and efficiency that have made Delphi a global leader in SRS interconnection.

Delphi is also a market leader in occupant sensing with over 10 years of proven field reliability.

Delphi’s occupant safety systems portfolio includes a wide range of occupant classification sensor systems which help reduce the potential for airbag induced injury. b

Improvements Begin At Windsor-Detroit Tunnel The Governments of Canada and Ontario recently announced the start of construction for upgrades to the WindsorDetroit Tunnel Canadian Plaza. This project will create approximately

150 jobs in the region and improve capacity for growth in vehicle traffic and cross-border trade through the Windsor-Detroit corridor.

“These upgrades are part of our strategy to en-

Ford Begins Production Of New Kuga Ford recently began volume production of the allnew Ford Kuga SUV at its assembly plant in Valencia, Spain, with deliveries to dealerships across Europe to follow soon.

New Kuga offers segment-first technology including hands-free tailgate; class-leading handling with Ford’s new global intelligent all-wheel drive system and enhanced Torque Vectoring Control; and introduces Ford EcoBoost petrol engine technology to the European SUV market.

We’re working on our next issue!

AD DEADLINE: January 18, 2013 5:00 pm

Ford has sold more than 300,000 Kugas since launching the first generation model in Europe in 2008. New Kuga heralds the start of Ford’s delivery of a comprehensive SUV lineup in Europe. It will be followed by the arrival of the modern and innovative EcoSport, Ford’s entry into the small SUV segment, and the Edge – a larger, more premium crossover that is a success in North America and other markets.

“The first-generation Kuga was a successful vehicle that customers really loved. The all-new, second-generation Kuga is a smarter, more fuel-efficient and even more fun to drive SUV,” said Roelant de Waard, vice president, Marketing, Sales & Service, Ford of Europe. “Ford has a deep heritage and expertise in SUVs that we plan to fully leverage in Europe starting with the all-new Kuga.”

Ford plans to leverage its historic leadership in SUVs in North America and other regions around the world to quickly expand its lineup in Europe; and has said it expects to sell more than one million SUVs in Europe in the next six years with

sure that modern and efficient infrastructure is in place at Windsor-Detroit – Canada’s most important trade corridor,” said Diane Finley, Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development, who SUVs accounting for 10 per cent of all Fords sold in the region by 2016.

New Kuga offers a choice of 150 PS and 180 PS 1.6-litre EcoBoost petrol engines, and 140 PS and 163 PS 2.0-litre TDCi Duratorq diesel engines.

AWD models are available with Ford’s PowerShift transmission; and all engine variants achieve CO2 emissions of less than 180 g/km*.

A range of driver assistance technologies including the parallel parking aid Active Park Assist, and sensor-based Blind Spot Information System, which indicates with a warning light in the door mirror that a potential hazard is in the driver’s blind spot, will also be available.

The all-new Kuga features 82-litres more bootspace than the current model, while the rear seats fold flat at the touch of a button.

The smart Kuga AWD system pre-emptively reassesses conditions 20 times faster than it takes to blink an eye, readjusting the AWD power split to give the driver the best blend of handling and traction. Dynamics and cornering control are improved by the introduction of the Torque Vectoring Control system first found on the new Focus.

Ford’s advanced voice control, device integration and connectivity interface, SYNC, also will be available from launch. It will include Emergency Assistance, which upon detecting airbag deployment or activation of the emergency fuel shut-off within the car, uses the on board GPS locator and Bluetoothpaired device to set up an emergency call and provide GPS co-ordinates, in the local language, for the emergency response. b

made the announcement on behalf of Denis Lebel, Minister of Transport, Infrastructure and Communities. “Tunnel plaza improvements will create jobs and economic growth and complement the construction of a new Windsor-Detroit Bridge, a top infrastructure priority for the Harper government.”

“These infrastructure projects are creating jobs now and building our economy for the future,” added Dwight Duncan, Ontario Minister of Finance and Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) for Windsor-Tecumseh. “Ontario’s significant investments in our border crossings are allowing people and goods to move between Ontario and Michigan more quickly, saving both time and money and encouraging economic growth.”

The project will address traffic congestion and improve operations at the plaza. Upgrades include new vehicle access lanes, new buildings for the Canada Border Services Agency and tunnel maintenance, new integrated primary inspection (IPIL) lanes for trucks, as

Page T-11 well as a reconfiguration of the duty-free parking area, municipal parking lots and existing intersections.

“Border infrastructure improvements facilitate trade and the efficient movement of goods and services between Canada and the United States,” said Dave Van Kesteren, Member of Parliament for Chatham-Kent—Essex.

“Strategic infrastructure investments like this are part of our plan to create jobs, economic growth and long-term prosperity for the people of Windsor and Essex County.”

“This project will be constructed by a local company, creating local jobs here in Windsor-Essex,” said Teresa Piruzza, MPP for Windsor West.

“These improvements will also help our downtown core businesses by reducing congestion on local streets and improving access to their locations.”

“I want to thank the Government of Canada and the Province of Ontario for following through on their commitment to improve the infrastructure at the Windsor-Detroit Tunnel,” said Eddie

Francis, Mayor of Windsor. “These upgrades will serve to alleviate congestion on city streets and improve efficiency at one of Canada’s most important economic gateways.”

Coco Paving (1990) Inc., the successful bidder on the $16.6-million contract, will begin Stage 1 work with sewer and water main installation, demolition of parking areas, and installation of temporary traffic signals.

Traffic on local streets will be maintained throughout the Stage 1 work with tunnel traffic accessing the plaza as usual. This work is expected to take approximately two construction seasons to complete.

This project is jointly funded by the Governments of Canada and Ontario under the Let’s Get Windsor-Essex Moving (LGWEM) strategy, a $300-million commitment for several transportation infrastructure projects to improve efficiency and reduce congestion in WindsorEssex. Funding for this strategy comes from the Canada-Ontario Border Infrastructure Fund. b

GM Leads In Energy Reduction Challenge General Motors now has 54 facilities meeting a voluntary energy reduction challenge set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency – more than any company worldwide. GM saves $90 million in energy costs as a result.

To meet the ENERGY STAR Challenge for Industry, U.S. EPA standards require facilities to reduce energy intensity by 10 percent within five years.

GM’s 54 facilities cut energy intensity by an average of 26 percent within just two to three years.

The resulting CO2 equivalent reduction of 1,256,000 metric tons is equal to the electricity needed to power more than 142,069 homes annually or provide electricity to a city about the size of New Orleans for one year.

New to the list are 22 GM International Operations sites, as well as two

facilities in North America. These join the 30 GM plants that met the Challenge last year.

To achieve the Challenge, GM employed tactics such as benchmarking energy use, upgrading to energy-efficient lighting, improving control of ventilation systems and automating the shut-down process of equipment that previously was shut down manually as well as process energy reductions.

“Energy efficiency reduces our emissions and improves our bottom line, so we are driven to make improvements wherever we can,” said Mike Robinson, GM vice president of sustainability and global regulatory affairs. “The EPA was right to recognize our global employees who work diligently to come up with new energy-saving ideas and implement efficiency measures every day. Their commitment

is helping leave a smaller carbon footprint.”

GM’s commitment to energy efficiency is ongoing.

In 2012, the agency named GM one of its ENERGY STAR Partners of the Year for energy management and the Lansing Customer Care and Aftersales parts distribution center earned ENERGY STAR building certification for performing in the top 25th percentile of similar facilities nationwide. Additionally, the GM Lansing Delta Township plant, which earned ENERGY STAR plant certification for superior energy efficiency last year, has retained its certification for 2012.

“Improving the energy efficiency of our nation’s industrial facilities is critical to protecting our environment,” said Jean Lupinacci, chief of the ENERGY STAR Commercial & Industrial Branch.

“From the plant floor to the boardroom, organizations like GM are leading the way by making their facilities more efficient.” b

Freightliner Launches Cascadia 113 NGV Demonstrator Program Recently, at the American Trucking Associations’ Summit on Natural Gas in Trucking, Freightliner Trucks announced that it is now offering a customer demonstrator program for its all new Freightliner Cascadia 113 natural gas day cab. Five customer demonstrator tractors will be available in the United States and Canada to provide customers direct experience with Freightliner’s newest alternative fuel product.

Equipped with the new Cummins Westport ISX12 G heavy-duty natural gas engine, the Allison 4000HS transmission, and 115 diesel gallon equivalent compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel tanks, the Cascadia 113 natural gas tractor is ideal for regional haul and less-than-truckload applications.

The 12-liter ISX12 G natural gas engine is

based on the Cummins ISX12 diesel heavy duty engine platform and will operate on either CNG or liquefied natural gas (LNG). It features ratings of 400 hp and 1,450 lb-ft torque, optional engine brake, and manual and automatic transmission capability.

“Natural gas products can result in significant fuel cost savings, making it a smart choice for increasing profitability while benefitting the environment,” said TJ Reed, director, product strategy for Freightliner Trucks.

“By providing our customers with the opportunity to test drive a Cascadia 113 natural gas, they’ll experience first-hand the performance and efficiency of an alternative fuel solution.”

The tractor is just one of Freightliner Trucks’ natural gas-powered vehicles, which also in-

cludes the Freightliner Business Class M2 112 and the 114SD. Parent company Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) leads the medium and heavy commercial vehicle market in the production of natural gas powered conventional vehicles with a combined sales figure of more than 4,600 natural gas vehicles across its brands.

Of those, Freightliner Trucks has sold more than 1,800 trucks and tractors since 2008.

DTNA’s commitment to green technologies is part of parent company Daimler AG’s global “Shaping Future Transportation” initiative. Launched in 2007, the initiative is focused on reducing criteria pollutants, carbon dioxide and fuel consumption through the utilization of clean, efficient drive systems and alternative fuels.

Full production on the Cascadia 113 natural gas begins in Q3 2013. To learn more about this demonstrator program, go to www.

Bendix Drives 92 Percent Waste Diversion Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems LLC, the North American leader in the development and manufacture of leading-edge active safety and braking system technologies, has achieved a 92 percent waste diversion rate through its ongoing company-wide emphasis on recycling and remanufacturing. With America Recycles Day serving as a reminder of the importance of reducing the environmental im-

pact of its facilities, Bendix continues to work toward its goal of “zero waste to landfill” operations.

America Recycles Day is held every Nov. 15 by the nonprofit Keep America Beautiful organization to promote and celebrate recycling in the United States.

“Less than one-twelfth of our waste now goes to landfills, and Bendix is pleased with the progress we’ve made in recent years toward reducing that frac-

Redi Milk Sees The Future With Allison Automatic Transmissions Redi Milk, which operates a fleet of medium-duty distribution trucks of various brands, has changed its vehicle purchasing policy as a result of the success of adding a new UD MK11 automatic. Until the Allison equipped UD was added to the Redi Milk fleet, the company had operated mostly manual and AMT equipped trucks.

According to Redi Milk’s fleet manager, Nigel Anson, dependence on automatic trucks is inevitable for food transport and distribution industries, due

to constant stop-start duty cycles and increasing traffic congestion.

“We purchased the UD MK11 automatic because it seemed the perfect truck for our operations, since drivers are stopping and starting all the time, delivering to numerous retail outlets,” Anson said. “Automatics are the way of the future, and really, the only choice was to move with the times or get stuck in the past.”

“The Allison automatic eliminates clutch wear, reduces the need for gearbox

tion to zero,” said Maria Gutierrez, Bendix health, safety, and environmental manager. “We feel we are very close to that goal. Every day, we strive to be environmentally conscious in our management decisions and business strategy. This makes sense for Bendix, because it’s the right thing to do and also has a positive financial impact. Just as important, it makes sense for the communities in which overhauls and drastically reduces maintenance costs and brake wear,” said Anson. “It also contributes to better safety by lowering levels of driver fatigue.

An automatic transmission allows drivers to concentrate on negotiating traffic or maneuvering the truck and not having to worry about clutch control and gear selection. Put simply, it allows the driver to focus on controlling the truck,” he said.

According to Anson, drivers love it because it is so easy to operate and manoeuver, particularly in frequent stop-start conditions and increasingly busy Melbourne roads.

“Our drivers visit up to 50 customers per day and are behind the wheel for This system will recognize truck suspension assembly numbers, trailer suspension model numbers, trailer suspension serial numbers and display parts or kits available for purchase through your local OEM dealer or distributor. PLUS also offers a cross reference tool for truck suspension part numbers to assist in servicing your Hendrickson suspension.

“PLUS provides us a platform to build from as we continue to provide innovative tools to help our valued Hendrickson suspension system users, distributors, and service providers with all of their serviceable parts and cross reference needs,” states David McCleave, director of sales and marketing for Hendrickson Truck Commercial Vehicle Systems. b

we operate and for the collective stewardship of the planet we share.”

All Bendix plants have instituted recycling of waste such as paper, cardboard, wood, plastic, and metal. In 2011, the company diverted more than 5,400 tons of waste and recycled more than 5,200 tons of material. This year, Bendix has diverted 92 percent of its waste that once would have gone into landfills.

In recent years, Bendix has also strengthened its remanufacturing efforts, launching a business unit focused on the practice in 2011, and expanding it in 2012 with serial production of remanufactured brake shoes at its new Bendix Brake Shoe Remanufactur-

ing Center in Huntington, Ind. With more than 35 years’ experience in remanufacturing compressors, air dryers, valves, and more, Bendix has long recognized the environmental benefits of recycling these parts.

Bendix reduces its environmental impact by dismantling products after their initial use, salvaging key components, and reassembling them with salvaged and new components to meet current specifications. This efficient form of recycling reduces the carbon footprint associated with the fabrication of new parts by 80 percent.

In 2011, Bendix remanufactured 300,000 units, recovering more than 70 per-

cent of the material in the original parts, and diverting more than 4,200 tons of material from landfills.

The company has found other recycling channels as well: Bendix sends discarded dessicant from its recycled air dryers to a company that reclaims the waste material for use in producing cement.

“Everyone is familiar with the practice of collecting bottles, cans, and newspapers for recycling,” Gutierrez said. “Seeking new and innovative ways to reuse materials is a key part of Bendix’s long-term sustainability strategy, and we hope that our practices can serve as examples of change that can be adopted across our industry and across the globe.” b

six to eight hours per shift, which equates to more than 1000 gear changes a day. Of course, in an automatic all of those shifts are managed by the transmission,” he added. “The automatic is more nimble, has better acceleration in city traffic and is more efficient and easier to use than manual trucks.”

“When you take into

account all the factors including the fatigue reduction, lower maintenance and better efficiencies, automatics are ideal for our needs, and all new trucks we buy in the future will be automatics,” concluded Nigel.

The 250 horsepower UD MK 11 Redi Milk purchased has now covered around 15,000km and in that time

has completely convinced Anson of its value.

UD offers its range of MK and PK medium duty trucks with Allison 2500 Series fully automatic transmissions as a factoryfitted option in Australia, which over the past five years has proved popular across a range of vocations and industries. b
