Bite Into Concrete Processor Profitability - Get the most from your concrete processing attachments

摘要

Selecting the right concrete processing attachments depends on an in-depth understanding of what is available and the latest technologies. There is a trade-off between the optimized performance of a dedicated tool vs. the versatility of a multi-process or universal tool. "To make the right purchasing decision, the contractor should make sure he has a clear understanding of the performance specifications provided by the tool vendors," says Poul Rosengaard, sales & marketing consultant, Industrial & Work Tools Solutions, Caterpillar. "All too often the specifications are incomplete and vague." One factor that has a direct impact on productivity is the ability to maintain processor teeth. "Regardless of what you do, the teeth are going to round down and become less effective," says Mark Ramun, director of the Demolition Tools Division at Genesis.
