duct on o 782, ROLLOUTS Engine conversion kit To help support the use of John Deere equipment around the world, the Construction & Forestry Division says it will bring to market a retrofit kit that will enable John Deere Tier 4 Interim machines to be sold in countries where ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel is not available. The conversion kits will be available in 2015. John Deere | www.deere.com /info. Secondary crusher Irock Crushers introduces the Sidewinder series of crushers. Designed to screen out a high percentage of the feed material that is already at the required size, it minimizes the amount of material run through the crusher for higher production and lower wear. The crushers feature a closed-circuit design and a four-bar impactor. They are capable of producing up to four product sizes — three sorted and one oversized product. A flop gate within the pant leg chute gives operators the option to either recirculate oversized material for further processing or divert it to the stockpile. Ideal for primary use in sand and gravel applications or for secondary use in crushed stone, they are available in three sizes, each with a three-deck horizontal screen. With screening areas of 210, 288, and 360 square feet, the Sidewinder 15, 20, and 30 can process 400, 600, and 750 tons per hour, respectively. Irock Crushers | www.irockcrushers.com Electronic initiation system Dyno Nobel rolls out GeoShot, the seismic industry's newest electronic initiation system and data acquisition tool. The system allows operators to map, record, and analyze the geological properties beneath the earth's surface with an energy pulse. To ensure accuracy and reliability, it provides two-way communication between the loaded detonator and a handheld device (the Tagger). The Tagger then matches data, including the detonator's exact location.
