Surrey-based Coinford is investing greater than £4m in new Cat 313 2D and 320 2D excavators, which have working weights of 13.8 and 22.6 tonnes respectively
Deliveries from Caterpillar distributor Finning started in March and are being staggered all year long.
Coinford plant director Chris Forrest stated: “These machines will help us to meet the current high demand and growth we’re experiencing, especially with our recent GPS investment. This cements our relationship with Finning and we’re proud to have these machines supporting our groundworks projects within the housing development sector.”
Ryan Trafford, territory account supervisor at Finning UK & Ireland, stated: “These actually are premium machines and an excellent addition to the Coinford fleet as they arrive full with built-in cameras, in addition to the latest know-how options enabling operators to hold out a spread of duties effectively and safely.
“Power was a big factor in the choice of these machines for Coinford. The models they’ve chosen offer the highest power for their size, while also being able to operate in eco mode. This helps significantly with fuel economy and wider operational efficiencies and can be monitored through the machine telematics as the Cat VisionLink platform comes as standard with these machines.”
