Fleet Managers looking for equipment solutions to meet their unique needs will find answers from Terex Utilities<\/a> at this week\u2019s 2024 Electric Utility Fleet Managers Conference, Williamsburg, Virginia, June 2-5.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe recognize that every utility is unique and has different needs. Terex Utilities<\/a> remains committed to manufacturing reliable, custom trucks built to the fleet specifications of our customers,\u201d said Eric Kluver, Vice President and General Manager.<\/p>\n

During the annual drive-through at EUFMC, Terex Utilities<\/a> will showcase two digger derricks\u2014a Commander C4047 digger derrick with FlexPro controls and a General 65 MAX.<\/p>\n

Terex Utilities is also showing the Hollow Kelly Bar, which eliminates the need for a screw anchor adaptor and reduces manual handling, requires less lifting, and increases productivity.<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cThe dual-cylinder construction of Terex<\/a> digger derricks is unmatched in the industry. Terex<\/a> digger derricks can dig a hole, lift a full flight of dirt on the auger, and set the pole\u2014helping crews be productive,\u201d said Dan Brenden, Director of Engineering.<\/p>\n

FlexPro is a suite of flexible control options that allow operators to choose from a joystick command post, consoles below rotation, or multiple radio control options. FlexPro compliments everything you expect from a Terex digger derrick and is available on Commander and General digger derrick models.<\/p>\n

Terex<\/a> will also show an Optima HR 55 bucket truck with HyPowerTM SmartPTO by Viatec. Optima HR 55 features 60 ft working height and more than 48 ft overcenter side reach. All Optima series aerials support ground access, which allows crews to easily hand off tools and clean the platform. The Optima HR 55 has up to 2,000 pounds of material handling capacity, and a 700-pound platform capacity.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen equipped with SmartPTO, this unit is the perfect first step into integrating electric operation into a fleet,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

SmartPTO powers the primary unit and auxiliary functions, lights and optionally the cab A\/C. Operators can easily switch from the engine on conventional chassis to SmartPTO, eliminating excessive engine idling, reducing emissions, and decreasing engine-related expenses.<\/p>\n

For those looking for an all-electric solution, International will display a Terex Optima 55 ft aerial device, powered by the HyPower SmartPTO by Viatec, on an International eMV Series battery electric 33,000 GVW chassis, from Navistar.<\/p>\n

Finally, Terex Utilities<\/a> will also show the Hollow Kelly Bar, which eliminates the need for a screw anchor adaptor and reduces manual handling, requires less lifting, and increases productivity.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy using the Hollow Kelly Bar from Terex Utilities<\/a> instead of a traditional locking dog and square bar, digger derrick operators can shave minutes off the process of installing screw anchors,\u201d said Brenden.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur company history has been rooted in the growth and maintenance of this nation\u2019s electric utility infrastructure for almost 80 years, but we also have our eye on the future,\u201d said Kluver.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur commitment is to build trucks in the configurations that are the most reliable to use for the varying needs of different types of crews, applying new technology into workable solutions,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
