Michele Catinari — Tue, 13 Oct 2020 15:00:17 +0000

Case Construction Equipment will host an online webcast on October 28, 2020, at 10 AM CDT to highlight skid steer and compact track loader optimization for landscaping operations, including new technology advancements, optimal attachment selection, as well as the role that precision construction solutions play in improving landscaping productivity and quality.

The webcast is hosted by George MacIntyre, product manager; and Richie Snyder, marketing manager for digital and precision solutions/telematics at CASE. Five participants will win a CASE swag package, and all registrants will receive a recording of the webcast via email.

MacIntyre says:

“The skid steer or compact track loader is often the first major equipment investment that a landscaping contractor makes. That investment has a base cost, but the profitability of the machine and how much return on investment that contractor realizes can be affected by how they operate, equip, and maintain that machine. In this webcast, we will discuss new features available to landscape contractors, ways to outfit their machines for optimal return on investment, and how easily precision construction technologies such as the laser grading box can positively impact their day-to-day work.”

CASE introduces an all-new purpose-built landfill configuration

NAFEM Newsroom — Tue, 07 May 2019 14:26:36 +0000

NEW 2050M LANDFILL DOZER CONFIGURATION

CASE introduces an all-new purpose-built landfill configuration for its 2050M dozer, designed to provide immense pushing power and blade capacity in landfill applications — all while providing optimal guarding and protection to critical working components.

CASE Construction Equipment introduces an all-new purpose-built landfill configuration for its 2050M dozer, providing enhancements and guarding that make it suitable for work in the harshest of landfill environments. The specialized design was tested and refined in large-scale landfill operations throughout North America in advance of the launch.

“Our product specialists, and each test site, spent considerable time monitoring machine performance and guarding,” says Nathaniel Waldschmidt, product marketing manager, CASE Construction Equipment. “Additional enhancements have been made, and what we’re coming to market with now is a powerful landfill dozer that will provide extreme performance and productivity, as well as protection from the unique working conditions of a landfill.”

The CASE 2050M is the manufacturer’s most powerful dozer, operating at a rated 214 net horsepower with a drawbar pull of 80,979 pounds. The new configuration features extensive guarding and systems to keep the dozer working efficiently in large-scale landfill operations. Key components of the new configuration include:

A new wide-track- or low-ground-pressure-track-configured bulldozer semi-u blade with trash rack that increases blade capacity to 14.5 cubic yards, with an overall height of 79 inches, to allow significant material carrying capacity and to take advantage of the 2050M’s industry-leading drawbar pull in its horsepower class.
An optional 6-way PAT blade configuration with the same high material carrying capacity trash rack.
New tank guards and debris deflectors that redirect material away from the chassis and protects the engine, cooling package, tanks, and other critical components of the dozer.
A chassis seal kit built from plate steel to cover gaps and prevent trash incursion and buildup.
Standard front striker bars that prevent material from climbing the tracks and entering into the chassis, and optional track frame wrap striker bars to completely guard any material from wrapping the front idler area of the track frame.
Window and door guards that protect the operator and the cab with 2- x 2-inch steel screens.
A new Sy-Klone Series 9000 pre-cleaner with screens that prevents trash and debris from entering the engine air intake system.
A heavy-duty radiator door that protects from impact and debris.
A new rear cabinet and counterweight that provides tow hook, tow rope mounting provisions, striker bars, suitcase weights, and mounting provisions for an owners’ installed aftermarket fire suppression system.
A specially designed set of super-duty final drive guards with multiple overlapping seal guards that prevent material and wire from wrapping, overlapping, and sacrificing critical final drive seals.
Optional HEPA Sy-Klone Cab air cleaner with landfill protective enclosure.
Additional components, including extensive hose and cylinder guards, exhaust insulation and grease fitting protection.

Operational Benefits of 2050M in Landfills

At its core, the 2050M features primary operating systems and components ideally suited for working in landfills. In addition to the robust drawbar pull, the dozer features a hydrostatic drive system that reduces parasitic drag on the engine and allows the machine to put more horsepower and torque to working efforts. An advanced load management system automatically reduces track speed (increasing torque) with a heavier load on the blade, and increases track speed (reducing torque) with a lighter load on the blade, ensuring the machine is working at optimal power and efficiency. This unique system provides 100 percent power to a turning track, while also allowing inside tracks to maintain pushing power, which is unmatched by a traditional drivetrain.

The CASE 2050M meets EPA Tier 4 Final emissions regulations with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology, which helps further keep temperatures down in the engine compartment, and also contributes to greater power and fuel efficiency as the engine is not using diesel/effort to burn off accumulated particulate through regeneration. The dozer also features a cooling system tested under maintained heavy load conditions and designed to optimize engine and hydraulic temperatures.

Control and Comfort to the Operator

The 2050M features control customizations that allow the operator to tailor machine performance and responsiveness to their preferences, including the ability to set blade sensitivity, steering sensitivity and shuttle sensitivity to smooth, moderate or aggressive. An electro-hydraulic joystick further simplifies operation by providing better feel and responsiveness to the operator, and fingertip blade shake allows for quick shedding of accumulated trash.

The 2050M also features a sealed and pressurized cab that helps keep dust and other materials out of the operating environment. Noise is significantly reduced down to 75 dBa compared to previous CASE dozers, and amenities such as a factory-installed radio and environmental controls further make the 2050M the most comfortable CASE dozer cab ever built.

Protected by CASE ProCare

The 2050M dozer at the heart of this configuration is protected by CASE ProCare, while the added components of the landfill configuration are covered under a separate warranty. ProCare is a suite of product assurances that includes a three-year Advanced CASE SiteWatch telematics subscription, a three-year/3,000-hour full-machine factory warranty, and a three-year/3,000-hour planned maintenance contract.

The new double-drum vibratory roller from CASE

NAFEM Newsroom — Mon, 25 Mar 2019 14:34:16 +0000

CASE INTRODUCES NEW VIBRATORY ROLLERS

The new DV45D double-drum vibratory roller from CASE features many of the performance and precision capabilities of a larger compactor, but in a compact and agile size for more residential and light commercial work.

New DV36D and DV45D Double Drum Rollers and DV45CD Combination Vibratory Rollers expand DV Series.

CASE Construction Equipment has introduced the latest additions to the DV Series of vibratory rollers. With models available in both double drum and combination (front drum with rear pneumatic tires) configurations, these rollers are powerful, easy to transport and nimble enough to work in a variety of residential and commercial construction applications where the operator may encounter tight quarters, curbs, structures and other obstacles.

Designed with a high curb clearance, no overhangs and drum widths of 51.2- (DV36D, DV45CD) and 54.3- (DV45D) inches, these new roller models are ideal for walkways, residential driveways, bike paths, tennis courts, parking lots and other small- to mid-size compaction applications.

The drums can be offset to further improve accessibility, and to improve performance during turns. Visibility is improved with excellent sight lines and an adjustable work station that allows the operator to get the best vantage point down to the drums.

The new models include:

DV36D Asphalt Roller: (43.5 horsepower; 8,290 pounds)
DV45D Asphalt Roller: (43.5 horsepower; 10,340 pounds)
DV45CD Combination Roller: (43.5 horsepower; 9,520 pounds)

DV Series Vibratory Rollers
The DV Series combines a compact size, and excellent maneuverability and visibility, with many of the same features found in larger compaction machines. A 43.5 HP Tier 4 Final engine delivers high centrifugal forces and frequencies at lower RPMs, making the machine more fuel efficient, while selectable dual frequencies (2,700/3,420 VPM) further improve productivity and allows operators to dial the machine in to meet the compaction needs of the job.

Operators can also choose between either automatic or manual vibration engagement to meet their preference and to help avoid damage to the asphalt during starts and stops, while the offset tapered drums reduce asphalt tearing during operation around curves. The units come standard with a 50-gallon water tank with a pressurized water system to ensure all-day water supply and consistent water spray to the drum.

DV Series rollers are compatible with the CASE ACE Force Intelligent compaction system—a technology designed to improve compaction quality, requiring fewer passes to reach target specs and resulting in savings in time, fuel costs and machine maintenance – as well as avoiding pitfalls related to under- or over-compaction. Ace Force also generates reports for applications where exacting specifications and records of compaction performance are required.

Comfort & Visibility
DV Series rollers feature an iso-mounted operator platform that minimizes vibration and reduces operator fatigue. A standard lateral-sliding seat provides operators with superior visibility to the drum edges on both sides of the machine.

Serviceability
Like all CASE machines, the new rollers are designed for groundline serviceability. All fluid ports, drains and service checkpoints are grouped on one side of the machine for simplified maintenance.
