1 CUTTER TECHNOLOGY BROADEN YOUR HORIZONs

2 There, where conventional methods are unsuitable or too expensive... Trenching With a production rate of 6- m /hr, this ER 500- X was used to produce a trench.5m deep in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Trenching in limestone: the ER 00-, mounted on a 0 ton Hyundai excavator in the Middle East had a production rate up to 0 m /hr. The depth of this trench in hard limestone in Qatar is.5 m. In limestone with a hardness of approx. 00 MPa, the ER 00- mounted on a 5 ton excavator achieved a production rate approaching m /hr. The grain size of the material extracted from the trench was small enough for it to be used as back fill In Qatar, this ER 500- L mounted on a Volvo EC 0 B cut under an existing pipe in a trench. Erkat provided the solution to a recurring problem in built up areas. Trenching in Germany, an ER 000 mounted on a Liebherr 6 Litronic. The use of an OilQuick OQ 0 coupler allowed the.t ton drum cutter to be changed with the loading shovel in 0 seconds. An ERC 00 drum cutter used to dig a 0cm wide trench. Thanks to the ability to rotate the drum cutter hydraulically, the machine could be oriented in a such a way that the rock between the cutter drums could be cut without any sideways movement. Precise and small: An ER 500- L (Longitutinal cutter) excavates a 00 mm wide trench in middle hard limestone. 6

3 In the most difficult conditions... Tunnelling An ER 000- mounted on a Liebherr excavator used to drive a tunnel in Switzerland. An ER 500- XL complete with a rotation unit was mounted on a 5 ton excavator to drive a U-bahn tunnel in Vienna. The drum cutter achieved an average production rate of - m /hr. Mounted on a ton telescopic excavator, the ER 500- T with a conical, profiling cutting head removes the old concrete surface of a tunnel in Austria accurately and exactly to the tunnel profile This ER 000- mounted on a Liebherr 5 was used to drive a tunnel in a very hard limestone in Monaco and gave a production rate from between 6- m /hr. An ER 500- mounted on a Liebherr tunnelling excavator is used to smooth the rough contours of the tunnel after being sprayed with concrete. + An ERC 650 on a liebherr Litronic being used for profiling work in a tunnel. In Portugal, this ER 500- T drum cutter mounted on a CAT 5 tunnelling excavator was used to widen the access ramp to a copper mine. With a high production rate of 0- m /hr, the project was completed well within time.

4 with many applications... Demolition / Refurbishment Quarrying / Rock Excavations Where ever a low vibration method of extraction is required, Erkat drum cutters give you the cutting edge. An ER 500- XL undercutting a historical building near Salzburg in Austria. An ERC 650 P used to smooth a diaphragm wall in Spain. The drum cutter is mounted on a Daewoo ton excavator. An ER 000 being used on a demolition project in Germany An ER 000- mounted on a PC 50-6 achieves a production rate of over 00 t/hr in this broken limestone at a cement works in Mexico. This 0 m deep excavation was produced using an ER 500- mounted on a 5 tonvolvo excavator. In this consolidated conglomerate near Salzburg, the ER 500 achieved a production rate of 0-5 m /hr. An ER 500- XL fitted with special cutting heads achieves a production rate approaching 0 ton/hr in gypsum. 0

5 POWERFUL IN QUARRYING ROCKS... Quarrying / Rock Excavations + 5 An ER 000 used to for slope work near the A motorway between Göttingen and Halle (Saale). The production rate was 0 m /hr An ER 00 being used to extract Gypsum in Germany. The production rate was approximately 0 m /hr. 0 + At a calcium carbonate quarry in Chile, this ER 650- mounted on a PC 00 achieves a production rate of 0 m /hr. + At a gypsum quarry in Uhrde, Germany, this ER 00- with special cutting heads achieved an exceptionally high production rate, approximately 0 m/hr. India 00: An ER 5500 mounted on a PC 50 achieves approximately 00 t/hr while cutting limestone at the Ambuja cement works near Shimla
