Well, we remain in love with our Damcon colors yellow and red (which have been around for almost 55 years). But, every now and then another color comes along that is also beautiful.
Telling about our company and the machines we build... we continue to enjoy it!
It was an interesting tour this morning and the group participated well.
Unique images of the Damcon tree transplanter KLR-3000 2M with contractor Geurs.
You'll just sit quietly in your car and suddenly a large machine with a giant boom will pass by!
A customer has a small excavator with quick coupler CW-0 and a larger excavator with quick coupler CW-1. He wants to use both excavators for, in this case, a Damcon KLR-300 ST tree spade.
Sometimes we get a bit shy at Damcon when a customer is more enthusiastic than we are.
The reaction of Henk de Bie and his men when delivering these 2 electric pruning platforms with solar panels was great: “Really cool!
We recently delivered this beautiful combination to Boot en Dart Boomkwekerijen BV in Zundert.
Pazzaglia's new model: the FZ-130 with joysticks.
That's fun, 11 VLC men working very seriously at the lathe.
They all got to try turning a shaft once and they did.
The workshop with these men was nice.
Yes yes… that Sinterklaasand his servant are becoming more and more modern!!
At first he came on horseback, but Sinterklaas is also moving with the times.
And then a Damcon pruning platform is excellent progress!
A wise choice!!
We recently delivered this KLR-700 ST tree spade to an English customer.
The advantages for him are obvious: the shape of the root ball is ideal, a low and sustainable investment, no maintenance costs.
And that is why we are happy with the arrival of Miguel in our construction workshop as a welder.
The transition went very smoothly, nice to see if you have such adaptability!
Still a beautiful sight when another new Damcon Selector-451 rolls out of our company.
We recently delivered this machine to Boomkwekerij J.W. Crum.
What can women do that men can't? That's right, 2 things at once.
That's why we hired 2 ladies who together fulfill the job of receptionist.
Yes and then you apprentice at Damcon.
Rutger started with us through the BBL training in the construction workshop.
Yes, our visit to a Damcon customer is always fruitful for both; you discover new things all the time.
We knew that our hoeing machine not only keeps the weeds away well, but that the soil also remains moister after hoeing, is new to us, chapeau!
An old saying, but still true!
We have to admit it, sometimes our salesman Anne is a bit too enthusiastic.
But in this case, well, then it's understandable. "Martin, with the next 2 machines you get a cake." If you then deliver the 4th electric pruning platform within 1 year, you must also keep that promise!
A great picture of this Damcon KLR-2000 2M attached to the Hitachi wheel loader of 18 tons.
The total weight is 25 tons when there is a tree in it.
And yes, if you as a team have built this machine with passion, then you should be proud.
Because building Damcon machines remains a wonderful job!
“Hej Leen, can you help us with the following problem? We have a urgent job for the Swedish railways, we need to transplant a large number of trees quickly. These have to pass under the electricity wires, but with a tree transplanter and tree we are too high. We need an extra frame so that the tree can lie more horizontally.”
In collaboration with TCO, we gave a tour to 3 groups of students from Lingeborgh College in Geldermalsen. Really fun to do, to get young people excited about the profession of tree cultivation. Growing trees with the help of Damcon machines, the most beautiful profession in the world!!
“Very nice working with your electric pruning platforms!” says Gerrit Jan Bunt. “The new one, but also the first machine of 20 years old is indestructible. We have already had so much fun with it, I wish everyone such an electric machine.”
Yes, that's how it goes at Damcon... If the internship goes well and the click is there from both sides, then you have a match. And a 9 for your graduation project and the many challenges that await, then you even have a very good match.
More and more customers are discovering the advantages of the Damcon tree spade on a wheel loader. The smart shape of the root ball: more roots, flat bottom.
28 years of experience, that is very welcome in our Damcon repair workshop.
The work is becoming more and more varied, especially commercial machines.
The question is coming up more and more often: How durable is a Damcon machine, how long will this machine last (with little maintenance)? And how is that compared to a Fendt tractor? The answer recently came from a customer from Sweden. Will you count?
“Look at the men!”. Jan van de Bijl and trainee Ruben Meijer on the pruning platform.
During his sales manager internship, Ruben was busy promoting and selling the new Electrocoup F3020.
Who has the youth, has the future! That was our motivation to enter into this unique collaboration with the VLC.
And “smart doers”, yes we certainly need that at Damcon.
Sometimes new customers ask: How did it all start at Damcon?
Well, that is a very long story that is almost 55 years old. A unique and original story indeed.
And with this photo, our story is a little easier to tell.
Do you also enjoy the autumn colors? At Damcon we do, we especially like red. Recently we were allowed to deliver 3 beautiful Carraro articulated tractors:
One more welder! That is very nice with the many machines that we have to build. Tijs Vermeulen recently joined the welding department as a construction fitter/ welder.
