Arliss Elkins- Diesel Equipment Technology Instructor
I am proud to announce that we have our first piece of equipment from WPI/Komatsu on campus.It is a WB142 Loader/Backhoe. WPI is short for Waukesha-Pearce Industries. The Komatsu equipment line has been in North America since 1970. They manufacture and market a full line of construction equipment. The line includes excavators, wheel loaders, dozers, off-highway trucks, motor graders, skid steers, tractor loaders, and backhoe loaders. They range in size from mini-equipment to some of the worlds largest equipment.The piece on our campus is on loan to Texas State Technical College, because of that we will get new equipment rotated in and out. WPI is committed to helping the Diesel Equipment Technology Department grow. Please, feel free to come by and look at the new equipment that our students are going to be tearing down and , more importantly, rebuilding.
This is awesome! Our students will make good use of this equipment making them even better prepared to go into the workforce
