Yanmar @ Bauma = A Success 

4/29/2016

1 Comment

 
Today Yanmar have reported what a successful show Bauma 2016 was for them.

The biggest stand in the companies history seems to have paid dividends and some fantastic feedback about current and new products was received. 

During a show press conference Yanmar's president Mr Jean-Marc Reynaud gave a speech about a fresh approach from Yanmar, concentrating on what he called a "total cost ownership focus" in the new machines. He identified that the rental market, particularly in the UK was a key growth area. Mr Reynaud also revealed that in March, having done several months of testing, Finnish rental company Cramo signed an agreement to invest in 800 to 1000 Yanmar compact excavators over two years. Thus showing the strong belief in the machines reliability and usability. 

As mentioned the new products on display earned many new admirers and we will be bringing you news of these shortly, there might even be a treat in store for A&Y's Hillhead 2016 stand...

Meanwhile here's a selection of images from the show courtesy of Yanmar.

In Stock Today - New Yanmar ViO50

4/26/2016

Picture
In Stock : A number of Zero tail swing, ViO50 5 tonne excavators
Picture


​The ViO50 is 5 tonne machine able to work in confined work spaces due to its reduced dimensions and zero tail swing concept. 
​
As previously mentioned Yanmar zero tail swing excavators are widely regarded as the most stable on the market. The ViO50 comes complete with the unique Yanmar VICTAS system, where the bearing surface is enlarged through; track width, crawler shape, position of rollers and pitching on the tracks. All of this combines to increase the stability, lifting capacity, travel speed and comfort, whilst reducing track and ground wear.

*long arm (as standard)
Picture
Changes made on the current version of this Yanmar 5 tonner include:
 - The blade has been put forward by 20 cm for improved control of the job and better leveling. The blade lever is now hydraulically operated.
 - 3rd auxiliary PTO circuit: standard proportional control to make use of accessories easier 
 - Larger, fully equipped cabin, with a new durable stamped door
 - Yanmar VIPPS hydraulic system as standard. VIPPS is the combination of pumps in order allowing the requested oil flow to each cylinder according to their needs. Thus allowing quicker and more precise work, whilst all the while aiding fuel consumption.







  The above diagram shows and example of VIPPS in action when using your excavator for grading. 

Other standard equipment include long arm, ROPS-FOPS-TOPS cabin, fuel filling pump and three fully protected cylinders.
Users of this excavator are always impressed with it's high performance level whilst remaining a compact and functional digger.

  • Low centre of gravity
Productive in Small Spaces:

How have we made the 2 piece boom SV100 even more versatile?

4/15/2016

0 Comments

 
Picture
This week Steelwrist have been fitting a tiltrotator to our SV100 2 piece boom machine. 

This 10 tonne excavator has already been found to improve lifting, moving and placing loads using its innovative 2 piece boom system. This in turn will increase productivity and reduce job times.

However with the addition of a tiltrotator the machines versatility increases again. In a previous post which highlighted the relationship between Yanmar and Steelwrist it was shown that productivity on a standard machine can be up to 30% greater, on this machine that will be higher. 
(
www.aandygroup.com/news/increase-excavator-productivity-by-30-with-yanmar-and-steelwrist)

The SV100 2pb is fitted with an X12 tiltrotator as it's designed for an excavator or a backhoe loader with an operating weight between 7 and 12 tons. Steelwrist say that "your machine converts from being only a standard earth moving tool into a versatile platform that excels your work with any attachment" with the addition of one of their rotators.
The extra ordinary tilt capabilities offered with a bi-directional tilt angle of 45°, coupled with the high torque rotation, make sure to bring out the best of your machine and your tools.

You will be able to see this complete setup at ScotPlant 2016 as well as Hillhead in June. It currently has a grading bucket with a rear gripper cassette added, there is also the option to have pallet forks attached. 

The below images show the even more impressive reach capabilities now achievable

Relentless Plant - New Dealers

4/12/2016

0 Comments

 
A&Y are delighted to have Relentless Plant as dealers for Scotland's central belt and borders regions. 

Based in Cumbernauld, they will be selling the whole of Ammann, Yanmar, Cormidi and Prinoth's portfolios. Relentless founder Andy Black said of the new partnership "It's good to be associated with these kind of premium brands"
During the upcoming ScotPlant show (A&Y preview coming soon...) Relentless Plant will be showcasing a selection of products on their stand. A great chance to meet the team and in particular new sales and service manager, Eddie Murray who will have a special emphasis on the Yanmar products. 

Peter Barfield, key accounts manager at A&Y Equipment, added, “Relentless are a relatively new company with a strong future in Scotland. Headed up by Andy Black and with sales managers Robert Dawson and Eddie Murray you have a very exciting team with many levels of experience.

“Relentless in the last couple of years have been making a name for themselves as a service company servicing and repairing steel tracks on excavators, along with supplying attachments and wear parts. With a large customer base of excavator users already established it becomes a straightforward fit to be selling Yanmar excavators, this then leads on to other products. If you dig it you have to flatten it, so the customer then needs compaction equipment, step up Ammann. Ammann make everything from a small compaction plate right up to a 25 tonne self-propelled roller.
​
“Relentless have five fully trained service engineers and a hose replacement van on the road so the customer has peace of mind. The product is as only good as the backup, something that has been a top priority with Andy.”

Next week, between 11-17th April will see the 31st Edition of the Bauma show taking place in Munich, Germany. 

Bauma is the largest trade fair for construction machinery, building material machines, mining machines, construction vehicles and construction machinery. This year it promises to be bigger and better than ever before, an impressive feat when you consider the last show in 2013 welcomed over 535,000 visitors on top of the 3400 exhibitors. 

Representatives from A&Y will be be visiting the show and spending time with our suppliers. The rest of this post will examine what items will be on show and anything new being released to keep your eyes out for. 

Yanmar - Stand FN1018/6
Yanmar will be exhibiting the whole range of machines on their stand, including; mini and midi excavators, tracked carriers and wheel loaders. 
It will also be a good opportunity to see a variety of attachments available on the excavators, with Cseri, Steelwrist, and Socomec being on show.

This show will be a great chance to see the latest models released in 2015, such as the V7 and V8 wheel loaders as well as the SV100 2-piece boom. 

Of course there will be new releases, this year in the shape of:
  • ViO12 = a 1220kg zero tail swing mini with new joystick controls
  • B7-6 Sigma = Operating weight of 8200kg and the innovative triple articulated boom, now with a much larger cab size.
  • C50R-5 = The largest of the Yanmar tracked carriers, payload of 3800 kg and dump height of 3.6 metres.
As reported by us recently Yanmar are now Stage 5 engine ready and this will be rolled out at Bauma, alongside the full support of the after sales, parts and servicing team.

Ammann - Stand FS909-910
You will find over 70 products on the Ammann stand. Machinery from the asphalt plants, pavers and compaction ranges are being shown. 

Ammann themselves say of the show "This year at Bauma, we will prove our commitment to remain an industry leader in innovation. Experience our new products and several concepts – all built with the operator and the environment in mind. Visit our largest booth at Bauma, to see the depth and diversity of the Ammann lineup."
Of interest to us at A&Y is the release of a new Tier4 version of both trench rollers and pneumatic tyred roller.
An autonomous vibration plate is also being released, in simple terms this machine will work within a set area automatically until even compaction is completed.
Cormidi (FN1017-4) and Prinoth (FN822-3) are also exhibiting their latest innovations in tracked carriers at the show.

If you are visiting then please visited any of the above mentioned stands and have a look what is coming soon.
