Caterpillar Sections

The photograph shows the stacking machine which was installed around 1992. The machine is fed by rollers with single bars then the feed bank pushes them and turns them before putting them onto a table which lowers to enable the next bar to be stacked. The complete stack is then lifted by the table onto the rollers which passes the bundle through the strapping machine which is then ready to load. Martin Byers is standing in the control pulpit. The section is a Single Grouser that is used for Caterpillar track shoes.
