The Timo-Tuin company has purchased a latest-generation Liebherr machine to carry out various earthmoving operations. In doing so, the company has opted for the performance, low fuel consumption and comfort of the Liebherr R 926 G8 crawler excavator. The first of this type in Belgium.

The best way to protect your equipment is to apply the right lubricant at the right time and in the right quantities. This is the philosophy at Lubrication Engineers (LE) South Africa. But, says Callum Ford, national marketing manager, there is one more principal worth bearing in mind: a good lubricant can become a great lubricant with the right additive.

Inspired by its VISION concept tyre introduced in 2017, an airless, connected, rechargeable and entirely sustainable solution, the Michelin Group is committed to making its tyres 100% sustainable by 2050.

Lubrication is critical to prolonging the life of bearings which in turn is fundamental to increased uptime and production and reduced operational costs. “The importance of accurate lubrication cannot be overemphasised as both over- and under-lubrication can reduce bearing lifetime,” states Eddie Martens, SKF product manager, MaPro.

A Liebherr R 934 G8 crawler excavator, the first hydraulic excavator with a factory-fitted Leica Geosystems machine control system, has been delivered to Brad-Pave in Great Britain. Liebherr and Leica Geosystems, part of Hexagon, have been partners in the machine control systems area since last year.
