The future is now

Don't get steamed

When Robert Wolford, president of Southern Asphalt, a division of Robinson Paving in Columbus, GA needed a completely new drum plant control system for their Junction City, GA asphalt plant they returned to Controls Technology Inc. (CTI).

CTI had installed a complete, new drum plant control system in the Columbus, GA plant a little over a year ago. The new plant control house included the latest computer hardware and software controls for the drum plant operations in Junction City.

The new control house will include:
• A complete system of asphalt plant controls
• Full manual back-up
• Easy-to-understand diagnostic controls
• Fast, accurate reports of daily production total and material inventory
• 24/7 free technical support
“What I like about working with CTI is they are very accessible,” says Wolford. “You can always reach them, and their service people are very helpful. Anytime we do have a problem, they can usually solve it over the phone with their diagnostic system.”

For more information contact: Controls Technology Inc. at www.cticontrols.net or email: sales@cticontrols.net.

Mulitiquip DLW-300ES Welder /Generator
The new DLW-300ES welder/generator from Multiquip delivers smoother arc characteristics and more consistent quality welds. The DLW-300ES midsize 300-amp welder and 10kW generator offers a 100-percent duty cycle at 280 amps. Unit operates at idle up to 160 amps and uses only 0.39 gallons of fuel per hour at 120 amps and only 1.1 gph at full load. Other features on the 10,000-watt, diesel-powered welder/generator include a thermal overload light on the dashboard notifying the operator the unit has stopped welding when the windings overheat without shutting down the machine. Multiple electric AC outlets for operator convenience come standard as does a brushless alternator design to lower maintenance requirements and costs, a self-priming fuel system for instant restarts and a reliable Kubota engine.
