Materials Handling Equipment
Care Equipment Manufacturing Co. Ltd. has introduced two new models of materials handling equipment the Atlas A6032 and the Titan T.I. 1014 D.P. The new Atlas (pictured) is a big, rugged 4-wheel drive, all-terrain fork lift, with 6,000 lb. capacity and lift heights to 32'.
Through the use of well-known and balanced components, the Atlas has outstanding value for the masonry contractor who must complete jobs on time without unnecessary delays due to poor ground conditions or breakdown.
The Titan is the first double cube handler available for either paved yards or unimproved storage areas. The unit has full 10,000 lbs. capacity with lift heights of 14 and 18. Each set of forks is individually controlled with 7" of controllable sideshift for each pallet, or 14" over-all. Power is available in gas diesel or LP gas.

"Long Nek" Tomahawks
Atlas "Long Nek" Tomahawks are designed for cleaning weldments and torch cuts, boiler testing, chipping ferrous metals, splitting blocks and bricks, and removing mortar. Popular in fabrication, welding and for maintenance men, masons and rockhounds, a "Long Nek" feature prevents the handle from splintering when working over edges. The cured hickory handles will not loosen, even in desert temperatures. Induction hardened heads are drawn to controlled hardness to provide long life and safety.

Dutch Electronic Device
A simple electronic device to measure the compressive strength of concrete used in construction and to provide data on holes, cracks and multi-layer effects in concrete has been introduced in Holland.
Operating by a non-destructive method, this concrete tester was developed by the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research (TNO), and it is now being marketed by the C.S.I. Instrumentatie voor Meet- en Regeltechniek N.V. of Vlaardingen, the Netherlands. It is now available for export to the United States, Canada and other countries. The Dutch company has emphasized that highly-trained specialists are not needed to operate the new instrument.
