With McCormick “Hyper Safety View” more safety and efficiency

Redazione

Workplace accidents are one of the most serious unresolved issues in Italian society. According to the latest Eurostat data, Italy unfortunately holds the unenviable record for the highest number of workplace fatalities in Europe, the tip of an iceberg that recorded nearly 500,000 reported injuries in Italy in 2023. This is a problem often discussed, but only during dramatic and sensational events, without adequate preventive policies following. Among the hardest-hit productive sectors is the primary sector, where injury rates are significantly higher than the national average. In fact, around 30,000…

Bcs “700” series rotary cultivators, precious for over a century

Redazione

Fundamental in post-World War II Italy as pillars of agricultural mechanization still in its infancy, tillers remain a strategic resource for many entrepreneurs in the sector. Italy boasts highly diverse geographical features, combining vast flat expanses or gently sloping areas with more rugged agricultural regions, leading to the concept of “heroic agriculture” when farming takes place under extreme conditions on small plots of land. Examples of heroic agriculture include lemon groves along the Amalfi Coast and lentils from Castelluccio di Norcia, cultivated in rocky fields. However, this concept particularly applies…

“Fast Attach” system by Dieci, everything in ten seconds

Redazione

One of the reasons behind the commercial success of telescopic handlers lies in their versatility. They are machines that can perform a myriad of tasks both in the field and on the road simply by changing the attachment at the end of the arm. Until now, this operation had to be done by the operator exiting the cabin. Time is the key factor The mechanical connection of the attachment to the arm could be accomplished by appropriately maneuvering the machine to facilitate the attachment, but the hydraulic and electrical connections…
