DUSTBOSS FAMILY OF TOWER MOUNTS One of the global leaders in open area dust suppression has announced the introduc-tion of a new component in its arsenal of custom solutions: a family of tower mounts for the company’s atomized misting equip -ment, which extends droplet hang time and range, while providing more precise aim-ing capability. Complementing a product line that already includes wheeled carriages and skid mounts, by delivering millions of 50-200 micron droplets per minute from above dust-generating activities, tower-mounted units help commercial operations achieve superior particle control and prevent dust from migrating off-site. Dust Con-trol Technology developed the new tower designs specifically to address ongoing op -erations that generate dust in fixed locations. They are well suited for slag handling, aggregate processing, recycling operations and coal handling.

VERMEER’S NEW DOLLY TRANSPORT SYSTEM OKOFEN NAMED ‘BEST PRODUCT OF 2012’ OkoFEN is one of the leading producers of pellet-heating systems in Europe and relies strongly on innovative products. The company has now been awarded for its new heating circuit controller Pelletronic Touch in four categories with the “Plus X Award 2012” – the world's biggest innovation prize for technology, sports and lifestyle prod -ucts – and also honoured with the special title of "Best Product of the Year 2012.” The heating circuit controller Pelletronic Touch was awarded for "innovation," "design," "ease" and "functionality.” With the Pelletronic Touch, OkoFEN upgrades its heating controller series to a modern touch screen system. The newly designed control panel with clear colour display allows a quick and intuitive navigation, and thereby an optimum user experience. Vermeer has enhanced its popular HG6000TX track undercarriage horizontal grinder with a new dolly transport system, longer load-out conveyor and Tier 4i/Stage IIIB engine to help improve jobsite efficiency. The dolly transport system, or DT6, elimi-nates the need for a drop-deck trailer to transport the machine from jobsite to jobsite, helping to reduce operating costs by saving time. The dolly features an anti-lock braking system (ABS) and air ride sus-pension. The suspension provides 7 in. (17.8 cm) of ground clearance under the track undercarriage, allowing for transport over uneven ground. The dolly also features a brake release valve that can release the park brake and allow the dolly to be moved by a loader at the jobsite using designated tow points.
