John Deere 460 P-Tier articulated dump truck
John Deere, Moline, Illinois, has applied its Performance Tiering Strategy to its articulated dump trucks (ADTs), including the 460 P-Tier ADT. The 460 P-Tier was designed for operator comfort, efficiency and reliability. Its features include:
- three drive modes—normal for typical operation; eco, which saves fuel by reducing maximum engine rpm; and optimizing transmission response and traction, which activates an auto-differential-lock system to maximize traction over soft, slippery terrain
- a quiet, pressurized cab with optional temperature control, a rear camera display and an easy-to-read monitor
- an optional onboard weighing system that displays data in real-time during loading
- ground-level access to areas that need to be regularly checked and maintained, including the fuel tank and diesel exhaust fluid

Pedigree asset tracking tags
Pedigree Technologies, Fargo, North Dakota, plans to showcase the PT Tag 20 and PT Tag 5 at WasteExpo May 2-4 in New Orleans. The Bluetooth tags have a range of up to 200 meters, or more than 650 feet, and are less expensive than GPS-based tracking systems, making them ideal to help monitor lower-value assets. The asset tracking tags:
- are designed for a long life of consistent operation with batteries that last 20 years and five years, respectively
- can send alerts when equipment is left behind or when machinery is removed from a work site without permission
- use Bluetooth wireless signals that are picked up and displayed on the OneView platform to repeatedly transmit messages with an asset’s unique identifier
- are purpose-built for harsh environments
