From new advances in construction robotics to equipment electrification, there are a lot of opportunities and challenges the construction industry will face this year. But as Chevron Brand Manager Walt Collier points out in this episode of The Dirt with host Bryan Furnace, preventative maintenance should continue to be a top priority. Starting this month, Delo’s rebalanced portfolio will make it easier for you to find the right engine oil for your equipment, no matter what off-highway sector you’re in. https://bit.ly/3RTNe6m

Korea Marine Transport Co., Ltd. Co Ship Management (KMTC SM) is implementing Accelleron's Tekomar Xpert digital solution to optimize engine performance across its container ship fleet. The initial adoption on 12 Panamax ships has resulted in a fuel cost reduction of US$540,000 and a decrease of 4,200 tonnes of CO2 emissions. With an expected annual saving of approximately US$1.3 million, KMTC SM plans to extend Tekomar Xpert to its remaining vessels and recommends its adoption on third-party managed ships. The move aims to enhance engine efficiency, lower lifecycle costs, and mitigate exposure to carbon pricing. Accelleron's Global Head of Sales and Operations Shailesh Shirsekar, states “Efficient engines are one of the keys to reducing fuel costs, emissions and carbon price exposure, enabling optimisation without impacting vessel operations," #maritime #shipsandshipping #digitalisation #fuelefficiency https://lnkd.in/e35iEhf3

Old is valuable. When something stands the test of time it always has a story to tell. In our line of business, we are very future-driven, but we also work systematically to ensure our equipment remain in good condition and continue to serve customers for as long as possible. Adding life-cycle value is a key sustainability goal in our business. We set out to find the oldest operational Konecranes crane and ended up in the port town of Rauma, Finland where we found the K141 crane – in operation since 1938 at energy company Rauman Biovoima. It is the oldest Konecranes crane still in use that we found, but let us know if you know of an even older one! The first job for the K141 was at a power plant generating electricity for the surrounding mill and town by burning wood waste, and its role in the turbine hall lasted five decades. This crane isn't just a piece of history; it's a living example of how robust engineering and maintenance can contribute to the digitalization of industry and technology transformation. What is the full journey of this carefully kept hoist? We caught up with Timo Pitkänen, Jari Toivanen and Marko Mäkinen who told us an amazing story. 👉 https://bit.ly/3xBh0GB #konecranes #oldestcrane #cf #konecranesmoveswhatmatters

ARGO-EFESO recently collaborated with a leading U.S.-based Oil & Gas conglomerate to address critical challenges in their rail operations amid increasing asphalt demand.

At CoreMAX we are fixated on safely drilling long core runs - regardless of the rigs mast length in both UG and surface drilling applications - why? Well, it seems like everyone is working on a digital this and robotic that - but when you analyze the core drilling cycle it becomes obvious that there are colossal productivity, safety and emissions saving that can be made - with existing rigs. So, this is where our engineering research and I.P applications are focused.

We are excited to share that the Mocean team recently had the honor of visiting a leading cylindrical lithium battery equipment manufacturing factories in China. Reflecting on the development history of China's cylindrical lithium battery industry, the advancements we've seen are truly remarkable. From slurry preparation, coating, slitting, winding, assembly, formation, to packaging, etc..each process has achieved new levels of precision, efficiency, and automation. Not long ago, most of this equipment had to be imported, but now, we proudly use equipment that is fully manufactured in China. The scale and intelligence of these factories are growing rapidly, underscoring the incredible progress in the industry. It’s inspiring to witness firsthand how China’s lithium battery sector has evolved and expanded. We are immensely proud to be part of this journey, contributing to the ongoing innovation and growth. Being involved in the cylindrical lithium battery industry is not just a job but a source of great pride as we continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible. #moceaninnovations #madeinchina #lithiumionbattery #batteryindustry
