  ~A Custom Modify for FeeNaughty Machinery, Portland, OR.~ 

Jewell  recently had a customer that requested that we take an existing CAT 5110B excavator and modify it to become a Demolition Machine
that would have the following features:

• Support at least 3 different tool weight configurations with two different tool weight’s at 182’ in a 4^th arm configuration.
• Support two tool weights in a third arm
  configuration.
• 20 feet of telescopic capability.
• Support a 20,500 lb tool in a 2^nd
  member application.
• Support conversion back to a standard excavator
  configuration using the factory excavator arm.
• Counterweight removal system capable of handling
  a modified counterweight.
• Computer controlled working ranges for all
  configurations.
• The ability to remove tracks without any
  additional onsite equipment and place tracks on a trailer.
• Lengthen tracks for improved forward stability.
• A wider gauge for improved lateral stability.

Jewell responded with a Custom designed Machine that has the capability to get their job done.

We are pleased to be in such good company under the category of “Manufacturer Innovation Award”.

At Paladin Construction Group, we are always looking for new ways to communicate with our current and potential customers, as well as other key audiences.  Hence, we are launching this new corporate blog in an effort to share our stories and hear yours.

We all know that every job site presents its own challenges, so the more information we can share, the better for all of us.  As one of the largest independent manufacturers of coupler systems and attachment tools for carriers — from small compact tool carriers to large excavators, wheel loaders and tractors – our equipment is used in a wide range of projects in a variety of situations.  We plan to share these stories and provide other useful and pertinent information to help you succeed . . . because when you succeed, we succeed!

Our blog will provide a great platform for two-way communications, so please let us hear from you.  Use the Comments Section below to ask questions, let us know what subject matter you would like to see covered, etc.  We look forward to hearing from you and wish everyone a successful final quarter in 2011.

As the largest manufacturer of augers and related wear parts in the world, Pengo has the products and expertise to help you get the job done, whether you are in the utility, construction, agriculture or foundation industries.

We started this blog to share our expertise and foster two-way communications with our dealers, the end users of our products, and other key stakeholders.

In our business, every project presents its own set of challenges.  But there is a good chance that another Pengo customer has faced something similar.  This is the kind of information we want to share in our blog.  Let us know what types of topics you would like to see.  We love comments!

Welcome to the inaugural corporate blog from Jewell.  Our goal is to share useful information that helps your business.

As a provider of custom machines for the world’s harshest environments including the forestry, demolition, scrap recycling, material handling, and construction industries, we help our customers get the job done in some very tough, demanding environments.

We draw on years of accumulated experience and technical know-how to convert standard excavators into tough, robust machines capable of conquering diverse jobsite challenges.  We also design and manufacture specialized attachments to meet your particular needs.  Our products are built with the kind of proven reliability you can count on, even in the harshest environments.

In this blog, we want to share our experience and expertise with our readers to help you find the right equipment solutions for your really tough jobs.

If you have any questions or comments about future topics, let us hear from you in this blog’s comments section.  Or give us a call.  We’re ready to work for you!

Welcome to our first blog, which will serve as an important vehicle for sharing news about Genesis, our customers and how we’re working together to achieve mutual success.

One of our key subject matters will be job stories; these are great for providing specific examples of how Genesis tools are making a difference on the job site.  For example, we featured a job story on our website earlier this year regarding a demolition project in North Carolina for the social media behemoth Facebook.  We think it’s fitting to mention this story in our first blog because blogs, Facebook, Twitter and other “New Media” platforms have opened a new world of possibilities for people across the globe to share information.

This job in Forest City, North Carolina, is a tremendous story of renewal – how a building used for textile manufacturing, a dying industry in North Carolina, was demolished to make room for a Facebook data center.

Charlotte-based demolition specialists, J.W. Demolition, won the bid to level and haul off the existing 350,000-square-foot structure using a small arsenal of Genesis attachments.  Faced with a tight deadline, J.W. Demolition brought in more than half of the Genesis tools they own, including a number of different size Genesis XP Mobile Shears, a pair of Logix Processors with different jaw sets, and a Genesis Versi Pro, also with interchangeable jaws.

Click here to read the entire story on how J.W. Demolition met its deadlines and adhered to some very strict environmental mandates with the help of Genesis Attachments.

And please provide us feedback in the comments section of this blog, including subjects that you would like to see covered in future blogs.
