Regional Waste Management <strong>and</strong> Recycling<br />

Company builds on Flexibility in Operation with<br />

the Komatsu Mobile Dredger PW-180-7!<br />

In September the Heidemann Recycling GmbH & Co.<br />

KG, a small business with its office in Eisfeld/Thueringen<br />

made a decision <strong>for</strong> the Komatsu Mobile dredger<br />

PW180-7. The dredger is not only the ideal companion <strong>for</strong><br />

the civil engineering <strong>and</strong> road construction, but also in<br />

many other sectors like <strong>for</strong> example in disposal, recycling<br />

<strong>and</strong> in demolition.<br />

For 20 years, the family company Heidemann, a certified<br />

recycling company in the South Thueringen region <strong>and</strong><br />

with 25 qualified staff, has been well known <strong>for</strong> processing<br />

<strong>and</strong> recycling. From the very beginning, trust of the clients<br />

has been the priority <strong>for</strong> Dag Heidemann, the managing<br />

director. The trust in the machines <strong>and</strong> the responsible<br />

Komatsu supplier “Schlüter für Baumaschinen” is another<br />

important point in the course of business of the Heideman<br />

company, because the success of qualitative work is also<br />

built on that.<br />

In the run-up, at the beginning of the year, already<br />

Komatsu: PW180-7 in operation<br />

a Komatsu wheel loader WA 470 LC-6 was added to the<br />

modern machinery. It was the first Komatsu <strong>for</strong> Heidemann,<br />

<strong>and</strong> it is used <strong>for</strong> transporting the material processed by<br />

the PW180-7 from A to B into the crushing plant.<br />

The PW180 is equipped with a concrete cutter to crush<br />

concrete parts like <strong>for</strong> example railway ties. Due to its<br />

quick change system the PW180-7 is an equipment carrier<br />

<strong>for</strong> many fields of application. It is noteworthy that the 18<br />

to mobile dredger is one of the most stable machines of<br />

its category – a plus point in the decision to purchase.<br />

Ergonomically <strong>for</strong>med operating devices like <strong>for</strong> example<br />

joysticks with proportional control <strong>and</strong> a particularly low<br />

noise pressurized cabin with automatic air-conditioning<br />

create an agreeable work place <strong>for</strong> the driver. Without<br />

further ado, roof protection <strong>and</strong> safety guards <strong>for</strong> front<br />

screens are available <strong>for</strong> the breakage. The driver has<br />

the option to adjust the oil flow of the auxiliary hydraulics<br />

by himself. Furthermore, various pipings <strong>and</strong> pre-settings<br />

ensure a quick change of equipment. Thus the hammer,<br />
