EquipmentWorld.com | September 2017 17 marketplace | by Don McLoud | DonMcLoud@randallreilly.com Compact design, no protruding parts Kinshofer's NOX Tiltrotator attachments for excavators come in fi ve sizes, all designed to be compact with no protrud- ing tilt cylinders. They also feature 360-degree con- tinuous rotation and are designed for low mainte- nance, the company says. The models range from the TR06NOX, which can be used on 3- to 6-ton exca- vators, up to the TR25NOX, designed for 18- to 25-ton machines. MORE POWERFUL, EFFICIENT WHEEL LOADER KCMA has unveiled a Tier 4 Final version of the KCM 7027 wheel loader, designed to be more powerful and fuel effi cient. The new loader runs on a 173-horsepower Cummins diesel engine and uses a diesel oxidation catalyst and selective catalytic reduction instead of a diesel particulate fi lter to achieve emis- sions reduction. Available buckets range from 3.7 to 5.75 cubic yards. Fuel effi ciency is improved with the fi ve-speed automatic transmission with variable shift points and auto idle shutdown. Other features include a rollover and falling-object protected cab; a color LCD instrument panel with a wide-angle, rearview camera; fi ngertip, pilot-assisted levers for hydraulics control; and a tilt and telescoping steering column.
