28 years: A generation of hoping and dreaming.
For those born after 1998, this is your first time. Savour every single moment.
For those who have left us, who never got to see this day again. This one is for you too.
For the rest of us who have waited, believed and never given up, the colour is finally back.

We are proudly and passionately Scottish. Built on Scottish spirit, Scottish determination and Scottish heart, the same qualities that kept every one of us believing through the longest of waits.
The wait is over. Scotland are back,
C'mon on Scotland.

It's Day one of the World Cup and what a time to be alive, if you weren't already aware, Scotland are in the tournament.

Here at The Attachment Company, or TAC FC as we're going to be known as for this first group stage, we've got our own squad ready to go!

Up front and wearing the number 20, loves a header, is the Simex Road Planer, alongside him, number 9, the Attachworx Log Splitter. From Italian and Scottish clubs respectively these two are hard working, clinical finishers.

Stay tuned for the rest of the team sheet...

Tech Tuesday: What Is a Tiltrotator Control System And Do You Need One?
A tiltrotator adds serious capability to an excavator but the attachment is only half the story.
How you control it matters just as much.

Single Circuit vs Twin Circuit.
Some excavators have a single auxiliary hydraulic circuit for attachments - one function at a time, on or off, one direction.
A tiltrotator needs to control multiple functions:
👉 Tilt - left and right
👉 Rotation - continuous 360 degrees
👉 The attachment mounted to it
On a single circuit machine a control system is not optional - it is a requirement. Without it a tiltrotator cannot function as intended.

What a Control System Does:
It sits between the machine's hydraulic circuit and the attachment, distributing flow intelligently across multiple functions.
👉 Proportional control - precise speed and movement
👉 Simultaneous operation of multiple functions
👉 Adjustable flow to each function independently
On a twin circuit machine, tilt and rotation can already operate simultaneously - but a control system adds proportional control, adjustable speeds, and the ability to operate an attachment on the tiltrotator at the same time.

The Simple Analogy.
Think of the hydraulic circuit as a pipe feeding several taps. Without a control system you can only open one tap at full flow.
The control system adds individual valves - run multiple at once, at different speeds, with full control over each.

Control System Options:
Tiltrotator control systems typically replace the machine's standard joysticks with dedicated proportional controllers fitted to the cab.
Units like the SVAB L8 are a popular choice - a dedicated proportional joystick that gives the operator individual control over each tiltrotator function with precise feathering and speed adjustment built in.
These systems are wired into the machine's existing hydraulic circuit and calibrated to the specific tiltrotator being used.

Simple takeaway:
A tiltrotator control system distributes hydraulic flow across multiple functions simultaneously. On a single circuit machine it is a requirement.
