On Oct. 27 and 28, Milton Cat held a grand opening event at its new spacious 100,000-sq.-ft. facility located at 7309 Eastman Road in North Syracuse, N.Y. Over two days, more than 700 people enjoyed Milton Cat's hospitality and tours of the Caterpillar dealership.

The campus includes a 30,000-sq.-ft. service shop with 24 well-equipped bays, which are serviced by nine overhead cranes that have the ability to lift up to 35 tons. A separate facility houses a welding shop with wash bays, which feature a water collection and recycling system that collects all wastewater, separates all contaminants, filters it and sends it back to be re-used to clean the next piece of iron.

The facility also boasts a 10,000-sq.-ft. parts department with an inventory of more than 17,000 parts numbers and six automated vertical lift parts stocking systems that completely automates the organization and dispensing of smaller parts. It also has a 6,000-sq.-ft. outdoor storage area that allows customers to browse Cat work tools and attachments.

Located on site is SITECH's operation center, an authorized dealer of Trimble Construction technology. From this location SITECH Northeast will offer sales, rentals, service, training and support for all Trimble products. CEG
