Tiltrotators have been around for over 30 years but now they are taking over the world, according to Engcon
Although the tiltrotator phenomenon has been around for over 30 years, more than 97 percent of the world’s excavators still lack one. This is despite the fact that it streamlines digging and turns the excavator into a veritable multi-tool. The concept is well established in the Nordics and through Engcon the tiltrotator has gradually extended its reach globally. Excavators recognise the flexibility and efficiency the tiltrotator brings, improving profitability, enhancing safety and reducing the environmental impact.
For a very long time, the tiltrotator has been relatively unknown outside the Nordics. Thanks to Engcon’s effective communication work distributing information via their website, trade shows, advertising, press releases, articles, social media and influencer marketing, the concept has become a global phenomenon. At this year’s largest construction trade show, Conexpo in Las Vegas, it became clear that many attendees were aware of the phenomenon and familiar through articles and videos of how it helped excavators work smarter.
”From the fact that the excavator previously only dug a pit, new accessories have developed the excavator into a multi-tool that can dig, lift, pack, sweep… Most contractors want to be able to take on more jobs and solve them faster and smarter to make more money. We believe that the tiltrotator is the key to that,” says Krister Blomgren, CEO of Engcon Group.
“Change the world of digging”
Engcon has been working with its motto “Change the world of digging” for a long time and decided in 2020 to also use it as its vision.
“That is exactly what we want to do in the long run! If we can get more excavators to be equipped with a tiltrotator, digging will be more profitable, efficient, flexible, environmentally friendly and also safer. We are simply changing the digging world,” says Krister Blomgren.
Only 2-3 percent of the world’s excavators today have a tiltrotator, which means that there is an enormous development potential for streamlining the industry and making it more environmentally friendly by using less resources in the form of materials, fuel and time.
”To invest in a tiltrotator is to invest in the future and we believe that it is only a matter of time before it expands in the larger markets. It is simply impossible to ignore the tiltrotator’s advantages, Krister Blomgren concludes.
