New Midwestern 200,000 1b. Sideboom Attachmnet

摘要

Along time leader in design and manufacture of high quality hydraulic sideboom attachments, Midwestern Manufacturing Co. of Tulsa, Oklahoma, recently announced the completion of field testing of its newly engineered 200,000 lbs. sideboom attachment for a Caterpillar D9H tractor body. In 2005 Midwestern commenced the development of its new big inch hydraulic sideboom utilizing over 50 years experience in design and manufacture of smaller size sideboom attachments. Earlier this year Midwestern completed the design, installed the attachments on three D9H tractors purchased by Midwestern and with the assistance of two major US pipeline contractors field tested this big pipe laying machine. The result of this long engineering process resulted in the availability of big inch pipe laying machines that have been field tested and have performed at or above industry standards with a maximum lift of 200,000 lbs (90,720 Kg) and a maximum working load of 117,600 lb. (63.343 Kg).
