Titan Equipment Monitoring from DPL America
The Titan Equipment Monitoring System for mobile, off-road equipment is an advanced solution for remote monitoring and tracking of off-road assets to increase asset profitability and productivity while decreasing the costs and risk of equipment theft. Features include: automatic and on-demand location updates, remote starter disable capabilities, real time updates of machine on/off in transit status, hour meter reporting with daily run time log, service scheduling with past due notices and digital inputs for sensor alarming. System allows managers to track their assets continuously and accurately from an Internet-based software package. Once covertly installed on an asset, the hardware unit wirelessly reports the machine's activity, location, status and other operational data to the software.
Clarence Richard Ez-Flo Scales
The Ez-Flo continuous weigh scales - for dust, fillers and hydrated lime - are designed to be more instantaneous and accurate than reading depleting weights from silo leg base load cells. Features include continuous weighing of powders up to 400 degrees, easily retrofitted to existing equipment, and easy to add to automatic blending and batching systems.
ShedWorks Asphalt Mixture Testing Equipment
ShedWorks Inc. manufactures laboratory and field asphalt mixture testing equipment for mix design, structural design, and construction quality control/assurance. The latest machines include three models of computer-controlled testing machines and three models of automated sawing and coring devices. Testing machines available include an overlay tester, an indirect tension tester and a dynamic modulus hot mix asphalt tester, each of which have integral temperature control systems. The dynamic modulus tester can be used to test 4" x 6" cylinders of asphalt (cut and cored from a larger gyratory compacted specimen) to obtain modulus and phase angle. For thinner specimens down to typical lift thicknesses, the indirect tension and overlay testers are offered. The indirect tension tester can handle 6-inch-diameter specimens and the overlay tester takes a small beam made by cutting each side of a 6-inch core or gyratory specimen. A version of the overlay tester is also available for testing crack sealant materials.
Eagle Crusher UltraMax 1400-45
The 1400-45 high-production, portable crushing plant easily replaces dual crusher circuits without sacrificing productivity. The 1400-45 produces uniform cubical products in the toughest hard rock and heavy-duty recycling applications. It features a three-stage crushing action resulting in a high-crush count and a reduction ratio of 24 to 1, while meeting Superpave specifications. The primary/secondary crushing capabilities eliminates the expense of jaw/jaw, or jaw/cone crusher circuits, and contains a powerful 510-hp diesel engine with 175kW generator, allowing operation of optional equipment without an additional power source. The adjustable primary and secondary curtains allow for precise product gradation control, and the hydraulic-opening impactor housing offers unobstructed access to crushing chamber and secondary curtain adjustment.
Nite Lite from Work Area Protection
Work Area Protection Corp. introduces the Nite Lite, the first portable work zone light that has been designed specifically for the road construction industry. The lightweight and easily transportable Nite Lite provides a non-glaring white light for all moving and static nighttime construction projects. Microprocessor-controlled electronics ignite the high-intensity discharge, gas-filled lamp. Unit draws only 4 amps at 120 volts AC from a 60Hz electrical source. The polycarbonate dome is coated with a light-diffusing compound that allows the 400-watt Pulse StartMetal Halide lamp to provide the necessary illumination for a jobsite. Light output is rated at 42,000 lumens, which is sufficient to light a 15,000-square foot area. Weighing only 26 pounds and having a diameter of 25 inches, it comes standard with a 24-foot grounded plug and stores securely inside a custom, foam-padded carrying case.
