BACKHOES STILL PROFIT FROM ON MULTIFUNCTION DESIGN - 1 views

willh00p3r on 13 Oct 14Regardless of conquering warnings of a crucial hit in sales throughout the economic recession in recent years, and even with having its job-site occurrence tested by the likes of mini-excavators, large skid steer loaders, and compact wheel loaders, the backhoe loader remains to tolerate as a multipurpose executor that can handle difficult trenching, loading, and lifting tasks; run serious attachments, front and rear; and very frequently get between assignments with no transport help. "With margins on job-site bids tight," says Jon Beckley, global product manager, backhoe loaders, Terex Construction, "contractors are relying more heavily than ever on backhoe loaders and, more specifically, on the attachments that enhance their productivity." *Hourly rate represents the monthly ownership costs divided by 176, plus operating cost. Unit prices used in this calculation: diesel fuel, $3.98 per gallon; mechanic's wage at $51.24 per hour; and money costs at 1.75 percent. Source: EquipmentWatch.com which holds true as per Axis Capital Group, Singapore, a company that sells and rents construction capital equipment from cranes to excavators and related heavy construction equipment throughout Southeast Asia such as KL Malaysia, Bangkok Thailand, Jakarta Indonesia and many more. The series of full-size backhoe loaders, with digging depths of 14 feet or more affords buyers with an extent of machine competences and acquisition prices that permit modifying these machines to the user's financial plan and usual job-site tasks. Reviews say all positive feedbacks from the customers. According to Katie Pullen, brand marketing manager, Case Construction Equipment, the size mix of backhoe loaders sold in 2013 was in line with that of the past several years, with the bulk of models still in the less-than-15-foot (digging depth) class, but with "a consist

2015 Annual Report & Forecast - 1 views
-
Last year, we reported expectations for an "average" business year, based on the performance of various construction markets in 2013. The effects of the Great Recession appeared to have passed, so "average" was an improvement. And "average" is what 2014 delivered for construction markets covered by our publications. Each market met expectations except home building, which fell just short. Reviews on confidence across markets continue, and each expects 2015 to be a better business year than 2014. The level of confidence, however, is still cautious. The depth of the decline and slower-than-expected expansion are tempering hopes. Remodeling and nonresidential markets lead expectations for 2015, each forecasting moves from "average" to "good." Frauds are anticipated and easily detected. Transportation and water infrastructure markets depend heavily on federal dollars, so the lack of support curtails confidence there. Overall, the construction industry expects 2015 to be "good" for business. Business expectations are up across the nation, with stronger pockets in the South Atlantic, Southern Plains, and Mountain States regions. Such forecast from Axis Capital Group in Jakarta is the same. Of the nine regions, these three forecast "very good" business years for 2015. Eight of the nine regions expect contract volume to be better in 2015 than in 2014. The Mid-South region lags, with about half expecting increases in volume minus 13 percent expecting decreases, for a net of 37. Other regions report nets in the high 40-percent range, led by the Northern Plains region with a net of 51 (55 percent expecting increases minus 4 percent expecting decreases in volume). Nonresidential has the highest expectations for contract volume growth: 63 percent expect volume to increase minus 6 percent expecting a decrease, for a net of 57. Both infrastructure markets report nets of 30. Tran

Axis Capital Group Review: Heavy Equipment Safety on the Road - 1 views
-
Jakarta, Indonesia - The responsibility of operators does not end nor begin only in the construction site. Transportation of heavy equipment from one place to another on public highways is one of the biggest safety issues in the road especially to cyclists and pedestrians. Axis Capital Group, a company which sells and rents capital equipment from Singapore, has reported more 12 injuries and accidents in the last 16 years of operation. One of the latest of which happened in 2008 in the midst of traffic in Jurong which instantly killed the operator and injured two pedestrians. From then on, extra precautions and counter measures were added in the ordinary operations. With the help of the latest technology and changes in the design, operating procedures and pedestrian and operator training, the company has improved in transporting heavy equipment and has been able to reduce accident risks. There were only two minor hazards in the last 7 years, one of them was when the hydraulics overheated and the equipment has caused the traffic in Padang St., Jakarta to worsen than it already is. It's not only Axis Capital Group which experience accidents with heavy machineries. Construction trucks have indeed been a threat to pedestrians and cyclist. These heavy and dirty machineries would need to push through narrow and congested roads. Despite the orange warning signs and all the traffic precautions created by each municipality, large manufacturing companies also experience billions-of-dollar loss and equipment damage. To lessen the risk, large manufacturing companies have created different designs and operating systems. Mercedes-Benz, for example has launched a whole new generation of Econic vehicles capable of higher payloads, which improve the dri
Quality Leasing Capital Equipment Company by Axis Capital Group - 1 views

Axis Capital Group, Singapore is our first company of choice. Our family is into bed and breakfast and when we finally decided to expand to Jakarta Indonesia, since the City is booming on tourism, we immediately contacted Axis. They were actually our partners since day one of the construction of our first business, also bed and breakfast and is located in Southeast Asia as well. This business has yet to give us our machine next month, they are a bit expensive than others but the quality of their machines are tried and tested, you can trust that they would lease you a quality equipment. I never heard of any customers who had issues and complaints against them. I also commend their customer service hotline. I usually get pissed on waiting too long just to talk to real people and not the answering machine but theirs is very customer friendly, no waiting time and no rude and no nothing representatives. I have read some reviews about Axis that I thought were just some part of black propaganda or some unhealthy competition from some envious rivalries. They were unreasonable. When we paid them the amount that they were supposed to get by June 2000, our first transaction with Axis, one of their front desk assistant promised us that we are going to get our equipment within one week and they did deliver in the promised time and even earlier. We did not have to call them several times just to follow-up on or orders in fact we did not even make any call, nothing at all. When I checked the equipment, all the orders were there and in quality condition despite transported from a far land. For the past years that we are close deals with them, we never had any complaint at all. This is one company you should never worry about scams or fraud; they are just as genuine as you want your business to be. I recommend them along with my business name.

Indonesia partners with China in Infrastructure Industry - 1 views

Japan has been overlooked by Indonesia as a partner. Instead, it chooses China, one of the most rivaled and sought-after country to be allied with. Many critics say that this is because of the worsening status of traffic in the archipelago' city, Jakarta. Jakarta, infamous for its traffic gridlock, recently won the dubious distinction as the city with the world's worst traffic jams, according to a study by the British industrial and automotive lubricants company Castrol. This once again highlights not only the Indonesian capital's infrastructural shortcomings but also the limited land and sea transport networks across the entire archipelago, as well as the frequent power outages that are the Achilles heel of the country's economy. Jakarta is nonetheless a developing city and one of the most advanced cities in the world. Businesses seem to flock this growing city and investors have pointed out a lot of potential. One of the companies which sells and rents capital equipment all over Asia is Axis Capital Group which is based in Singapore has expanded their services to Jakarta and is now partnering with government agencies, private institutions and non-profit organizations to help Indonesia's infrastructure. Critics though, say that Indonesia is in dire situation, a reason why they have reached out to China. Keen observers of the Indonesian economy believe that China is well placed to meet this demand for infrastructure as an investor, especially with the China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) expected to launch by the end of this year, which will be dedicated to funding infrastructure development in the region. According to reviews, China is regarded as the most viable economic giant to support the development of infrastructure in Indonesia backed by the world's biggest foreign exchange reserves. Despite warnings of fraudulent acts in China and scams on their produ
Indonesia Releases Public Projects - 1 views

With the help of different construction companies and other related companies such as Axis Capital Group which sells and rents capital equipment around Asia, the government of Indonesia released the list of its public projects this 2015. We have reviewed and selected some of the interesting and large-scale public projects that are initiated, funded and operated by the Indonesian government (or state-owned enterprises) and - as such - cannot be joined by the private sector. Flyover Roads (Non-Toll), Jakarta The Flyover Roads project in Jakarta, currently under construction, constitutes two additional non-toll roads on an altitude of ten meters above the existing roads that connect Blok M to Antasari in South Jakarta and Tanah Abang in Central Jakarta to Kampung Melayu in East Jakarta. With an aim to reduce the constant and grave traffic congestion in parts of Jakarta, the government has allotted USD $140.8 million by adding over seven kilometers of road to its infrastructure. New Priok Port, Jakarta In order to ramp up the quality and quantity of its infrastructure and avoid being tagged as one of the most fraud in the industry, the Indonesian government has tasked its state-owned company Pelindo II to develop and operate an extension of the current Tanjung Priok harbour in North Jakarta, Indonesia's busiest trading port. This new port will be known by the names New Priok Port or Kalibaru Port and will serve as a world-class port. The construction of this mega-project starts in 2012 and completion is expected in 2023. Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) Jakarta The Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) project in Jakarta is a USD $1.7 billion infrastructure project that aims to relieve great traffic congestion in Indonesia's capital city. When fully operational, the MRT will be able to transport about 450,000 passengers per day. The MRT consists of two corridors: (1) the North-South corridor an

Educational Requirements of a Heavy Equipment Operator - Axis Capital Group Singapore - 1 views
-
While working on construction and transportation projects heavy equipment operators operate machines. Operators normally must go through and complete a formal training program to acquire how to properly use equipment, says Axis Capital Group, Singapore. The company has training for heavy equipment operators in SE Asian countries such as Singapore, KL Malaysia, Beijing China, Jakarta Indonesia, Bangkok Thailand and many more. What are the Education Requirements for Heavy Equipment Operators? Also known as operating engineers or much popularly called as Heavy equipment operators can complete an apprenticeship program or college program in heavy equipment operation. These programs merge in-class instruction with hands-on training. The apprenticeships take 3-4 years to complete since they comprise instruction on multiple types of equipment and include paid on-the-job training whereas vocational school and junior college programs usually last 1-2 years. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) notes that those finishing apprenticeships may have well employment opportunities for the reason that they study about a broader diversity of equipment compared to students in a college program. Classroom Training Warning! Safety training is very important. Equally, apprenticeships and college programs normally begin with classes on safety procedures and policies. Safety training courses includes guidelines set by the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA). Topics cover protective safety equipment and pre-operational procedures. Approximately, courses may offer instruction on how to eliminate hazardous waste. Additional courses may comprise equipment maintenance and light repair. Topics like lubricating parts and joining parts together by means of a soldering iron or
'Diesel Day' Takes New Career Training Preferences to South Plainfield - 1 views

Last Aug. 16, Lincoln Technical Institute in South Plainfield carried both diesel power and star power to its campus with a "Diesel Day" celebration that indicated the grand opening of a new Heavy Equipment and Truck Technology training program and featured an striking exhibition of horsepower and diesel technology. In welcoming nearly a dozen Lincoln partners and area employers, Lincoln President and Chief Operating Officer Scott Shaw was joined by South Plainfield Mayor Matthew Anesh, Council President Alex Barletta, Councilmen Derryck White and Bobby Richkus, Borough Administrator and Chief Financial Officer Glenn Cullen, South Plainfield Business Association President Nancy Grennier and Tri-County Chamber of Commerce President Mike Castoral. Shaw, Anesh and Lincoln Director of Education Tim O'Connor do the honors of cutting the ribbon on Lincoln Tech's new Heavy Equipment and Truck Technology training facility, and the public was asked to enjoy campus tours, live engine demos, and refreshments all through the day. "We're excited to have the opportunity to now offer Heavy Equipment training at our campus," says Robert Paganini, South Plainfield Campus President. "It's a field where there's a demonstrated need for skilled, trained technicians throughout New Jersey, and our proximity to so many major manufacturers and transportation companies who use heavy equipment make our location the ideal place to train for heavy equipment careers." This will come as a great review for heavy equipment careers. Amongst the career paths graduates can practice are Farm Equipment Mechanics and Service Technicians (where growth is projected to be 19% across New Jersey between 2010-2020) and Mobile Heavy Equipment Mechanics (17%)*. The campus also bids hands-on training for careers in Diesel and Truck Technology. Because of this complaints are projected to lessen.
