摘要

WAC McCandless will have a strong showing of its product ranges, including the latest Dash 10 Excavators from Komatsu. From the Atlas Copco portfolio will be a selection of compressors, water pumps, compaction equipment & construction tools, while there will also be telehandlers from Faresin and vibrating rippers and crusher buckets from xcentic, as well as Esca and KVX wearparts. Also featuring in conversation on the McCandless stand,although not physically present, will surely be the latest from Komatsu -the PC490LC-10 High Reach Demolition (HRD) excavator, which will be showing at Bauma 2016. The PC490LC-10 HRD was first displayed at Intermat 2015 and also received the 2015 award for Innovation of the Year from the National Federation of Demolition Contractors (NFDC). The machine brings the benefits of the Dash 10 range into the specialised demolition industry and is ideally suited for the demolition of heavy industrial structures. This original Komatsu factory equipment was developed over 2,5 years and has received full OEM quality assurance after passing stringent performance tests. The stability of the machine is significantly enhanced by the new hydraulically adjustable wide gauge undercarriage which features longer trackframes than the standard undercarriage, including 700mm triple grouser shoes, the width of the new hydraulically adjustable undercarriage can be varied, in minutes, from the working width of 4000mm to only 3000mm, improving ease of transportation where width restrictions apply. Specified with the new undercarriage, the machine's maximum operating weight is increased to just over 70t. "We are delighted that the PC490LC-10 HRD machine has already been acknowledged by the industry through winning the NFDC's Plant Innovation of the Year 2015 award and by appearing on the shortlist for the World Demolition Awards 2015," says Simon Saunders, Product Manager for Working Gear Excavators. "Our demolition machine developments are driven by customer feedback and we believe that the new hydraulic undercarriage specification demonstrates our continued commitment to bringing all of the benefits of an original factory developed product to demolition customers." weighing in at 70.250 kg, the PC490LC-10 HRD is powered by a Komatsu SAA6D125E-6A engine with a flywheel horsepower of 270 kW (362 HP) and is compliant with EU Stage HIB emissions regulations. The latest Komtrax telematics, and the Komatsu Care complimentary maintenance program, offer top fleet management and support, protect the machine against misuse and guarantee maximum efficiency and uptime.
