Dominating the Dirt by the Second: The Mobile Track Solutions Story

In the massive, high-stakes world of commercial earthmoving, contractors do not measure success in days, hours, or even minutes. When a project requires moving millions of cubic yards of heavy, compacted soil, profitability is calculated by how much dirt can be moved every single second. Slashing cycle times and delivering the unyielding mechanical brute force required to drag massive payloads across hostile terrain is the exact engineering domain of Mobile Track Solutions (MTS).

Operating out of a sprawling, 160,000-square-foot manufacturing campus in Elkader, Iowa, MTS does not just build equipment; they engineer the complete, construction-grade power units and massive tow-behind scrapers that physically reshape the modern landscape.

A Legacy Forged in the Iowa Dirt

The MTS legacy was not born in a corporate boardroom; it was forged directly on the front lines of heavy earthmoving. The mechanical foundation was laid in the early 2000s when John Moyna pioneered the revolutionary e-jector box in Elkader for the CAT ADT Product Group and founded E-Ject Systems to manufacture towed pan scrapers.

By 2002, Mobile Track Solutions was officially established, aggressively researching and developing ways to utilize massive articulated dump trucks as power units for these scrapers. The engineering was so formidable that Caterpillar officially acquired E-Ject Systems in 2007.

Rather than walking away, MTS doubled down. In 2008, they executed a massive strategic pivot: they began engineering their very own severe-duty power units explicitly designed to drag massive scrapers through the absolute worst conditions on earth.

The Arsenal of High-Speed Earthmoving

To conquer the job site and maximize dirt moved per second, MTS deploys an uncompromising lineup of heavy iron, researched, designed, and entirely assembled in the American Midwest:

 Construction-Grade Tractors: The unyielding, high-horsepower power units engineered to deliver massive drawbar pull and relentless traction across deep mud and broken terrain.

 Heavy-Duty Scrapers: Ranging from massive towed pans to highly specialized configurations, designed to rapidly load, haul, and eject highly abrasive material without jamming or suffering structural failure.

 Disks and Rollerblades: The essential, severe-duty implements required to violently condition the soil, rip through compacted earth, and prepare the site for rapid grading.

MTS refuses to rely solely on computer simulations. Every single product they forge is aggressively tested in brutal, real-world environments. This ensures that when a contractor puts an MTS machine in the dirt, it is already fine-tuned for maximum efficiency, agility, and absolute survival.

Midwest Roots, Global Muscle

Today, backed by over 130 dedicated employees and a massive network of equipment dealers worldwide, MTS operates as a global heavyweight. Yet, they remain fiercely anchored to their Northeast Iowa roots. Operating as a family-owned business that employs local families, they have cultivated a deeply ingrained "MTS family" culture.

They take immense pride not just in the iron they build, but in the community they support, actively investing in the future of the heavy equipment industry by partnering with Midwest universities. By seamlessly fusing uncompromising Midwestern work ethic with highly advanced earthmoving technology, Mobile Track Solutions ensures that when the landscape needs to be altered, the dirt moves exactly when and where they command it.
