Stage Set for Hybrid Construction Equipment to Go Mainstream

The increased performance and fuel savings supplied by hybrid earthmovers can offset the increased purchase price.

Electric wheel motors greatly simply bucket loading for the operator compared to a torque converter machine, making it easier for novice operators. In addition, the electric motors make traction control possible, which prevents wheel spin and thus saves considerable cost.

Inspections and Proper Maintenance Give Dozer Uptime a Push

When it comes to maintaining crawler dozers, the undercarriage is always the first priority.

Uneven wear is one of the problems that can be corrected if caught early enough through periodic inspections. For example, if an operator is working on slopes in one direction only, the downhill track will wear quicker than the uphill track. That is an operator habit that can be changed to even out the wear patterns.
