First Husqvarna DXR Sold in USA

Husqvarna Construction Products

The introduction of the Husqvarna DXR 310 demolition robot at the World of Concrete in Las Vegas was a huge success. The remote-controlled robot's new technology and features impressed contractors and others in the industry.

The DXR 310 is currently available in Europe and will be available in the United States during the third quarter of 2009. However, one company in particular could not wait until third quarter. Cougar Cutting, Inc. based in Ft. Myers, FL, purchased the first robot in the United States. Cougar Cutting specializes in providing quality concrete cutting, breaking, drilling, demolition and installation services. They have been in business for over 40 years, starting operations in Florida over 25 years ago. "We have several Husqvarna products and the reliability and service is tremendous. The technicians are second to none in the industry and are always available to resolve any issues we've had!" said Ron Schmitt, Owner.

Husqvarna's commitment to quality products and service was one of the main reasons Cougar Cutting choose the DXR 310. In addition to the great service, the robot offered numerous benefits that solidified Cougar Cutting's decision. "There are several features this machine has that others in its class don't offer, such as the telescopic boom that has a range of 18' (including the breaker) as a standard feature. This machine is extremely compact and has a very low profile, giving it tremendous sight lines (and) making it very easy on the operator to see what he's doing.", said Al Miller, Director of Demolition Operations. Cougar Cutting continues to be thoroughly impressed with the machine, as well as the company behind it. They feel it will be a great asset to their company and allow them to complete more in less time.

"In today's economy, the name of the game is production and this tool has production - Husqvarna' written all over it." summed up Mr. Miller. In addition, Mr. Schmitt said, "I've never seen a company in our industry invest in products as much as Husqvarna has over the last several years, they are committed for the long term."
