Earth-Moving
Stockpiling system
The Extec E-7 screen is a
heavy-duty, track-mounted, self-propelled, open-flow screening and
stockpiling system that is designed to offer users performance and
productivity for high-volume recycling and re-usable demolition
material. The Extec E-7 has a high-output capacity capable of a material
throughput of up to 600 tons per hour, depending on material, feed size,
bucket size and particle content. Once demolition has taken place,
material is loaded by excavator into the feeder where material is
transferred to the screening area. The material, which consists of heavy
clay, brick, stone, concrete and topsoil, passes over the screen box
where smaller material will fall through the top deck and onto the
bottom deck.

Generator program
Baldor's Mod Express program,
which takes a stock product and adds modifications, has now been
extended to stock gaseous liquid-cooled (GLC) generator sets. Baldor's
new GLC generator mod express program sets the stage for a fundamental
shift in the way the company can help generator customers through its
service offerings. Configured for permanent standby power applications,
Baldor GLC 30-100 kW natural gas and LP Vapor generator sets are built
as stock open skid-mount units and designed for adding several custom
modifications. The customer chooses a rating, chooses the options that
will meet his or her specifications and specifies a ship date. At the
Baldor factory, the order is assembled in a matter of hours using
pre-engineered product combinations designed to interface with several
ratings. The new GLC Mod Express designs maximize flexibility and
minimize setup.

The Stone WolfPac 4100, from Stone Construction Equipment, is a
40-inch wide, double-drum drive, double-drum vibration asphalt roller.
It is designed for compacting base, binder and finish coats of asphalt

specially designed electro-hydraulic circuit combined with a
custom-designed manifold allows the operator to activate the vibration
where needed. The 24-hp Kubota diesel engine provides added power. With
4,000 pounds of impact per drum, the roller is best suited for parking
lots and other confined areas and paved surfaces where impact and
maneuverability count.
