The DT12 crawler-mounted dumper can work as a self-loading unit to dramatically cut loading times while boosting efficiency, according to its manufacturers Wacker Neuson.

The smallest of Wacker Neuson’s new five-strong DT series of crawler-mounted dumpers being showcased at INTERMAT 2012, the DT05 has a loading capacity of 0.5tonnes and a machine width of just 66cm.

Building on its Wacker-Neuson partnering agreement for mini excavator production, Cat is to add two new mini excavators to its range at INTERMAT.

Cat will introduce its new F series backhoe loaders at INTERMAT, and represented by the 428F and 432F models.

It might be logical to think that bigger construction machines will be harder to steer – but then there’s the Wacker Neuson DT25 crawler-mounted dumper.

Part of Wacker Neuson’s new DT series of crawler-mounted dumpers, the DT08 Proline is said by the firm’s product manager Steffen Wiesener to have a more efficient hydraulic system than the standard DT08 model, improved operating and control comfort and a wider range of attachments. The DT08 is available in diesel or petrol versions.

Wacker Neuson is hoping for good commercial vibrations from its DPU 130 vibratory plate after its nomination for the German Industry Innovation Award.

After an 18 month competitive tendering process, Leica Geosystems has been awarded the contract to supply over two hundred survey grade Leica Viva GS15 GNSS receivers to Ordnance Survey, the national mapping agency for Great Britain.

Wacker Neuson say the potentially self-loading DT15 crawler-mounted dumper is a must for business efficiency.
