Cleveland,
Ohio, January 10, 2014 – Terex Material Handling announced an order for six
Demag Heavy Duty 2.5 ton Monorail Hoists and two Demag Top Running SingleGirder 5 ton cranes from Western Technologies. The overhead hoists and cranes

Moscow Region, Russian Federation.
Chris Mason, co-owner and
head of engineering for Western Technologies, stated “we have chosen to work
with Demag transport equipment exclusively because their hoists, cranes, and
drive motors are the best available on the world market. The Demag equipment is unsurpassed in its
functionality, operation, and durability in the harsh environment of the
galvanizing process.” Russell Patterson, the other co-owner, stated that “from
a sales and marketing standpoint the Demag equipment requires very little sales
effort on our part as the Demag reputation for quality is well known in all
industrial markets.”
“We are excited that Western Technologies has
chosen us to be a critical part of this unique galvanizing plant project,” says
