Carmaky has signed a new agreement with Australia-based firm Transmin , as the company ’ s official agency for the African region . Under the agreement , Carmaky will take on capital equipment sales , servicing , and supply of parts for the complete Transmin range . The agreement includes Transmin original equipment lines , including Boomer rock breakers , belt feeders , heavy-duty bin isolation gates , ball mill lime slakers , lime processing plants , flocculant plants and most notably , Transmin ’ s specialist range of low profile feeders ( LPFs ). Transmin ’ s LPF is an original hybrid feeder delivering the advantages of both belt and apron feeders , plus additional distinctive benefits over conventional feeder technology .
The LPF has the unique ability to change direction using a bend transition . A change of direction from horizontal to inclined can be achieved without the requirement of a second machine , therefore creating improved space utilisation and flexibility of plant layout , and eliminating transition points between conveyors and reducing capital expenditure .
LPF machine capacities vary according to application , although rates of 6 000tph and above are readily available .
The LPF is available in a range of standard belt widths from 1.2m to 40m and is the only feeder to feature ProEDGE : Pre-supplied hot vulcanised belt edging with 10 times the strength of conventional glue-based edging . The vastly increased bond strength significantly reduces the risk of belt failure , and with it , costly repair and maintenance work .
A hotel under construction next to Terminal 2 in Heathrow Airport has received a Linden Comansa tower crane . The 21LC750 comes with maximum load capacity of 50t and was supplied by rental company City Lifting , Linden Comansa ’ s UK dealer .
Started in May 2017 , the Arora Group is building a new 14-storey hotel next to Terminal 2 , also known as The Queen ’ s Terminal . An essential part of the works is being undertaken by a 21LC750 tower crane .
To lift the heavy prefab modules of up to 13 200kg , City Lifting installed a special model of the 21LC750 crane , with maximum load capacity of 50t instead of the regular 48t . This increase in load capacity is possible thanks to a new and lighter trolley / hook set and the use of compact wire rope , which improves not only the maximum capacity , but the entire load diagram . This design was applied to the 21LC750 after a large tower crane that will be launched soon .
The 21LC750 in Heathrow was erected with a freestanding height of 51.3m and jib length of 55m . The configuration supports a jib-end load of 16 200kg , able to lift up to 17 280kg when using the PowerLift system , which comes as standard in all Linden Comansa flat-top cranes .

Several new models were added to the 21 Series , including a new line of compact wheel loaders .
The latest wheel loader offering from CASE — the G Series — spans 141 – 347 horsepower , with bucket payload ranging from 3.9 to 10.2 tonnes and bucket volume from 1.9 to 5.5m 3 . In the short time since their introduction , the G-Series has won several awards , including the prestigious Good Design™ Award in the Industrial Category from the Chicago Athenaeum : Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies , and top new product recognitions from industry publications .
