WIRTGEN GROUP

Didn’t know you could move your plant while in operating mode? You sure can. The optional “Quick Track” technology from Kleemann – available for mobile impact and jaw crushers – enables speedy relocation when necessary. The plant remains in operating mode so that it is quickly ready for operation again after it has been moved. Only the material feed is stopped. Everything else remains in operation. This eliminates the time-consuming switching off and on of the entire plant and is a major advantage in road rehabilitation, for instance, where the plant is relocated several times a day, depending on the construction process.

Pioneering retrofit solutions from Benninghoven: Building on its success story after Bauma 2022 and a successful pilot project realized in Nentershausen, Germany, a Benninghoven retrofit solution has now been successfully implemented in the south of France. An existing asphalt plant near Nice was retrofitted with the innovative solution in just four weeks to meet the strict emissions limits. ✅ This goes to show that the pioneering retrofit solution is also a viable option for older plants aiming to achieve decarbonisation and effectively reduce emissions. ✅ It also allows existing infrastructure to be modernized and future-proofed, thus ultimately securing the future of the plant.

Asphaltica 2024: From October 9 to 12, the Wirtgen Group will be presenting its entire range of product brands in Bologna, Italy. ✅ The HX 90i VV-S pivot-steered tandem rollers from the HX series are just one of the highlights Hamm will be showing. ✅ With its W 100 Fi and W 200 Fi cold milling machines, Wirtgen demonstrates how innovative solutions can make sustainable road construction possible in all application scenarios. ✅ Benninghoven has developed a pioneering solution for producing almost emission-free asphalt mixes and will be presenting the world’s first burner that can be fuelled exclusively with green hydrogen. ✅ The MOBICAT MC 110 EVO2 mobile jaw crusher from Kleemann is used as a primary crusher in the processing of natural stone and recycling. ✅ The SUPER 2100-5i Highway Class tracked paver from Vögele combines exceptional performance with the pioneering technologies of the Dash 5 generation. Moreover, John Deere is bringing its 622 GP Motor Grader to Bologna. The Grader’s six-wheel drive enables maximum productivity on all surface types. The Wirtgen Group will be on site in Hall 19, at Booth A49. We look forward to seeing you there. Learn more about our trade show appearance here: https://lnkd.in/gRMg-Tsd

The Dash 5 generation pavers from Vögele enable even more sustainable asphalt paving and are even quieter than their predecessors. The main reason for this is the optimized EcoPlus emission reduction package. Let’s take a closer look: ✅ As previously seen with the Dash 3 generation, various technical features ensure lower fuel consumption and emissions. For its Dash 5 generation, Vögele has also optimized the variable-speed fan so that the temperatures of the engine charge air, the cooling water and the hydraulic oil are monitored individually. ✅ The fan speed can now be calculated even more precisely and only increased to the extent necessary for safe operation of the machine. ✅ This further reduces noise emissions and fuel consumption significantly.

Flexible logistics for individual requirements with Hamm! Picking from a portfolio of 250 different models along with numerous options, we can assemble a roller that best suits your particular demand. Due to the large variety, we produce almost all rollers as ‘batch size 1’. Additionally, our flexible logistics ensure that all required parts reach the assembly line just-in-time and that each roller is manufactured exactly to customer specifications. We also make sure that our logistics processes are sustainable and place a special emphasis on resource conservation while doing so. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/gPsmWhfG

Here today, there tomorrow. When flexibility is required, the MOBIREX MR 130i EVO2 mobile impact crusher from Kleemann comes into its own. Whether for demolition work next to the VfB football stadium in Stuttgart, Germany, or for use as a contract crusher in a recycling company – the high flexibility, excellent product quality, high performance and easy handling thanks to SPECTIVE all pay off in a variety of projects. Find out more about the deployment of this mobile impact crusher in southern Germany in our accompanying job report: https://lnkd.in/gZmg6rgN

New cutting drum premiered at MINExpo 2024: At this year’s MINExpo trade fair, which took place in the Las Vegas Convention Center, the Wirtgen Group unveiled its new cutting drum enabling the cost-efficient extraction of even the hardest rocks and minerals. With its redesigned cutting geometry and HT14 toolholder, the new cutting drum significantly expands the range of applications for surface miners in hard rock and stone. It also enables access to previously unexploitable deposits of rocks with uniaxial compressive strengths of over 100 MPa UCS (14,500 Psi) – such limestone and anhydrite – while eliminating the need for drilling or blasting. This innovative new technology not only significantly extends the service life of quarries, but also makes the mining process more efficient while conserving resources and increasing overall safety in the quarry. Our experts were available on site to answer questions and offer individual technical solutions that meet the challenges of rock extraction. Another highlight included the 280 SM(i) Surface Miner equipped with the new cutting drum, which is already successfully being put to use at a limestone quarry in Louisville, Nebraska.

Wirtgen Surface Mining: an economically efficient and environmentally friendly solution for extraction of raw materials and realization of large infrastructure projects without drilling and blasting. Deposit material and mineral raw material are used for a wide variety of purposes, as raw material for construction or as a source of energy. But how are they mined? Wirtgen offers an economical and environmentally friendly solution for the selective extraction of all types of rock using the method of cutting - Surface Miners. Their advantages: ✅ Efficiency: Rock is cut, crushed and, if required, loaded directly in a single pass. ✅ Cost-effectiveness: The mined material is crushed to the desired size so that it can be processed profitably with little or no post-processing. ✅ Increased safety: Wirtgen Surface Miners eliminate the need for drilling and blasting. Approximately 750 Wirtgen Surface Miners and Cross Application Miners have already been deployed worldwide to mine limestone, granite, coal, gypsum, iron ore, salt, phosphate, bauxite and many other materials. We have compiled their applications for you in a video. Learn more about the Wirtgen surface mining application here: https://lnkd.in/gt3EFMcz

Vögele has further developed the operating concept for its ‘Dash 5’ pavers. ✅ ErgoPlus 5 offers users more overview, even more comfort, ergonomics and all the prerequisites for networked road construction. ✅ Operation of the individual functions has been simplified, the design improved and additional storage options integrated. ✅ Users can also conveniently monitor and operate existing and future digital solutions via the optional ‘Premium Touch’ touch display.

Introducing the future-proof lighthouse project from Benninghoven: The first virtually CO₂-neutral asphalt mixing plant fuelled with wood dust instead of heating oil. While the phase-out of coal as fuel is imminent in many markets and systems powered by crude oil are subject to increasingly stringent regulations and restrictions, Benninghoven has managed to further develop its EVO JET multi-fuel burner for other, more promising fuels, such as Biomass to Liquid (BtL) and wood dust. It comes as no surprise then, that the EVO JET burner has become the first choice as a retrofit solution when modernizing existing systems and optimizing them economically and ecologically. For operators, the wood dust burner is a sustainable way to get their system ready for the future. Some advantages at a glance: ✅ Wood is a renewable material and can thus be managed sustainably ✅ The fuel is obtained from wood residues and waste ✅ The fuel is CO₂-neutral > Compliance with the TA-Luft emissions limits with continuous measurements ✅ Benninghoven has determined the ideal particle size of wood dust ✅ Optimum particle size is crucial for flame geometry and effective heating ✅ Future-proof investment Learn more about the wood dust burner from Benninghoven and our corresponding lighthouse project here: https://lnkd.in/ga7dKUpV
