The news last shift occurred in 2001, when the machine is moved from one mine to another mine - a distance of 22 miles, exploring the land, roads, rail-crossing the railway, suburban and rural areas. Because this machine can not just pass the obstacles, because it could spoil-prepared workers for the base layer of sand along the way as he passed railroads, highways, moving electric poles, and spread a special grass on top land in its path to facilitate the course.
It took 3 weeks to move it! When he reached the place of this machine will devour coal hills, rocks with gusto!
The Family who demonstrate monster machines :
- Beltwagons : Beltwagons or "mobile transfer conveyors" serve as intermidiate link between various minining machines and conveyors. They bridge distance and height... more
- Spreader : The spreader is the last link in the chain of equipment for continuous removal of overburden
- Tripper Cars : .... to unload a belt
- Crushing Plan : ... as the name says. Crushing material at every place and in all sizes
- Transport Crawler : .... moving every haevy load in a mine
- Surface Manner : ... for diggin the hardest material without need for blasting
