POWER PROFILE: Hogzilla Tub Grinder

WASTE NOT, WANT NOT

HogZilla Tub Grinder

As the health and safety of our communities becomes a higher priority than ever before, the importance of the City of San Antonio’s Solid Waste Management (COSA SWMD) department can’t be understated. Serving more than 360,000 customers and growing, they depend on over 800 pieces of equipment to keep their operation running safely and efficiently. Having reliable and efficient machines that can take years of heavy wear and tear makes this possible.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

  • Having the right equipment for the right job matters and when COSA’s SWMD team needed a new heavy-duty grinder to turn their more than 100,000 tons of brush and other debris — that would have otherwise ended up in a landfill — into mulch, they chose the Cat® C32 powered HogZilla tub grinder.
  • The COSA team knew HogZilla machines are built incredibly well but also wanted a machine with an engine that could stand up to the tough tasks required by the city. When they saw the HogZilla featured the C32 engine with it's high torque and horsepower, their decision was easily made.
  • Since COSA’s SWMD has had the HogZilla, they’ve already seen it outperform some of its previous competitors. They have shown everyone - including decision makers - that not all machines are created equal.
  • Caterpillar has service techs in mind when designing products, as they are engineered with the foresight and importance of upkeep and maintenance. This is especially important when part of your team’s duties include servicing your own machines — as well as other departments’ equipment.
  • With four truck centers servicing 1,300 pieces of equipment and one off-road shop designed specifically to service, repair and maintain 770 off-highway machines (including 52 pieces of Cat equipment) for the entire city of San Antonio, having machines and components you can trust and rely upon is crucial.
  • If repairs are needed and can't be done quickly enough by the in-house COSA service centers, they rely on the support of their local Cat dealer, Holt Cat with great results.
