Components
Engine manufacturer Cummins plans to showcase its new, Tier
4 Final-compliant, 63 to 98kW QSF3.8 engine and
the larger, 250 to 382kW QSG12 models, as well as its
aftertreatment technology that help the engines comply
with the stringent emissions limits. Cummins said it
would also showcase some of the first Tier 4 Final-ready
power packs in the industry, together with a power
rental trailer.
RDS and Loup Electronics plan to launch their next
generation onboard weighing device, for instance – the
Loadex 100. The technology can be retrofitted on both
tracked and wheeled excavators and material handling
machines to weigh the amount of net material load in
the bucket or grab.
Also making its ConExpo debut is the companies’
new Weighlog Vue on-board weighing scale for
wheeled loaders. This device is said to provides precise
and consistent bucket weight information and in fast
loading environments.
This is just a snapshot of some of the new products
that will be showcased during this year’s ConExpo. Next
month we will have a special Stop Press feature on the
exhibition, reporting more news of machine launches
just ahead of the start of the exhibition.
And during ConExpo itself,
iC’s
