Solid & Foam Filled Tires for Underground Mining Generally, not much attention is paid to tires although the entire weight of the vehicle including payload is carried by the tires and tires are the only link between the machine and the terrain. It is therefore critical to ensure that they are safe, reliable and performance-worthy anytime. This is of even…
5 Attributes to look for in Solid Telehandler Tires Telehandlers are a versatile and multi functional machine that combines the lifting capability of a forklift, with the reach and elevation of a crane for exceptional efficiency. Telehandlers should be fitted with tires that offer high stability given their applications i.e. lifting heavy loads and reaching high heights often on unstable…
Trident's Solid AWP Tires to help you save time & money! Tires are the only connect between the machine and the terrain, it is therefore critical to ensure that they are safe, reliable and performance-worthy anytime & every time. This is of even greater importance for tires fitted on aerial equipment such boom lifts, scissor lifts, telehandlers etc. Furthermore, tire…
Construction equipment is continuously evolving as manufacturers incorporate new technologies & telematics to increase efficiency, productivity, reliability, safety & return on investment. Some emerging trends within the construction equipment market are: Higher Expectations from Users Construction is now a key project activity and is getting more complex and at the same time completion schedules are tighter. Hence users are seeking…
Tire Filling is a process in which a pneumatic tire is injected & pressurized with a special 2 component urethane polymer in a precise proportion using a special metering pump. The polyurethane cures into a soft, resilient, synthetic rubber core replacing the air in the tire. The resultant filled tire is thus rendered puncture proof and maintains the required…
Industrial & Construction Equipment such as Aerial Work Platforms, Boom Lifts, Skid Steer Loaders, Wheel Loaders, Mining Equipment, Port Cranes, Tele-Handlers etc. are normally fitted with pneumatic tyres. When these machines are used in severe service/harsh underfoot conditions they are prone to frequent punctures, tyre damage and fast tyre wear resulting in losses associated with frequent repair and replacement, downtime…
Tire Sealants In Industrial/Mining Applications Tyre sealant is a viscous fiber impregnated liquid solution that is injected into the tyre through the valve stem. In the event of puncture in the tread area, the tyre sealant instantly and permanently seals the injury without the vehicle stopping. It also seals other causes of air loss such as rim or bead leaks,…
Track Pads for Surface Conservation Heavy tracked equipment such as excavators, horizontal drilling rigs (HDD’s) are fitted with profiled steel grouser shoes. When these machines are required to march over/work on paved roads, the steel grousers damage the surface. Steel-Reinforced, wear resistant, Rubber Pads can be fitted over the steel grousers thus permitting unrestricted movement on paved areas without causing…
The tyre is the only connect between the vehicle and the road hence ensuring that tyres are reliable, performance worthy anytime & every time, can be mission critical. Presented below are two options that make tyres puncture proof thus eliminating tyre related machine downtime, associated delays & costs. Semi Solid Industrial Tyres: Developed specifically to address the problems of frequent…
Solid Waste Management Operations encompass the entire spectrum that begins with waste collection and ends with disposal or recycling. With the increased awareness on environmental preservation and recycling of waste, the dimension of mechanised waste handling has increased in significance. Municipal waste is now transported to waste processing centres where it is separated and as the case may be –…
