Graders tough it out
Canadian Mining Journal Staff | January 1, 2011 | 12:00 am
Building and maintaining roads is what Champion Motor Graders have been doing since they were invented in Goderich, ON, in 1885. Since then, the horse-drawn grader has evolved into one of the more productive road building machines in the world and when the Volvo Construction Construction Group bought Champion Road Machinery Ltd. in 1997, they became even more well known for their technological performance and reliability.
Today the machines are found around the world including many places like this one in Malaysia where roads are often cut through dense tropical coverage and across rivers to access remote sites.
