Kocurek at Bauma 2010
Whilst Kocurek does not usually have its own stand at Bauma, the company invariably has a presence at this prestigious event. And 2010 is no different.
This year, the company has been invited to give specialist back-up to valued German customer Kiesel, the Hitachi dealer for Germany, who has and continues to build an enviable record in supplying excavators into their domestic market.
Kiesel has taken a conscious decision to give their customer base a one-stop total solution for all their bespoke needs. For a number of years this company has successfully sold their version of the modular joint (Oil-Quick) onto machines up to 45 tons base weight; but they have now extended this product offering to cover the ZX670/870 and EX1200 machines.
Kocurek has been chosen as the manufacturer of these units as it is the only company capable of offering a telescopic boom; and Kocurek has been entrusted with the first order on a Hitachi ZX670 which offers the following key features and which will be on display at Bauma 2010.
• 34 metre working pin height operating a 3,000 kg attachment or a 4,000 kg attachment with the telescopic boom fully retracted.
• Standard equipment will incorporate a special boom foot extension giving a Triple Articulated Boom (TAB) arrangement to give (in the straight boom position) a working pin height of approximately 17 metres.
With the boom in the conventional position, a digging depth (to the pin) of approximately 8 metre is achieved. This arrangement will also allow the use of a heavy steel shear for extreme conditions.
Come and see for yourself how quickly and easily equipments can be changed
Note - Ron Callan will be in attendance all week; Engineering Manager Matt Bloomfield will be there on Monday and Tuesday; Service and Aftersales Manager Martin Williams will be there on Wednesday and Thursday; and General Manager Brian Carroll will attend Friday and Saturday.
