11 Monstrously Powerful Giant Machines That Will Leave You in Aw

Do you like big and powerful machines? If so, today you're in for a treat! Track Sleepers Installation System: RF-System and CEAB Have you ever thought about how challenging it is to construct a railway? However, with the RF-System and CEAB track sleepers installation system, the work becomes easier and more efficient. When the front-end loader brings the sleepers, a rail-mounted laying machine, based on Volvo, grabs three of them and places them under the rails, securing them in the designated position. And that's it! The installation is complete! Repairing the Railway with PM 1000 URM Are there machines for repairing railways? The PM 1000 URM is a remarkable machine that excels in this task. It resembles a train or even a factory itself, repairing 110 meters of track per hour. This machine removes several layers of ballast from the track bed and recycles it. The usable stones are reused, resulting in significant savings on construction materials. Crane - Liebherr LR 13000 The tallest crawler crane in the world is the Liebherr LR 13000! Its standard height is 236 meters, but in July 2013, a crane reaching a height of 248 meters was constructed at the Emden factory, equipped with a 120-meter main boom and a 126-meter luffing jib. Today, let's talk about this colossal crane. Slag Pot Carrier - Kress PELS Series Steelmaking is always a hot topic. This is because steelmakers deal with extremely high-temperature molten products. During steelmaking, the temperature of the metal and slag exceeds 1600 degrees Celsius. In such high-temperature conditions, steel becomes a liquid itself! Wheel Loader - Volvo L350H Take a look at the slag flowing out of the arc furnace. Doesn't it resemble the entrance to hell? However, no matter how hot it may be, it's time for clean-up. Since the slag has cooled down to 1,400 degrees Celsius and solidified, it can be scooped up and transported to the disposal site. Dragline - CAT 8750 The CAT 8750 dragline is Caterpillar's flagship model used for earth-stripping operations in quarries. With a massive bucket capacity of up to 116 cubic meters, it collects soil and rocks by being dragged across the ground using a complex system of ropes and winches. When fully equipped, the boom reaches a length of 132.5 meters. Additionally, this heavy machinery weighs 7.5 tons. Vertical Shaft Sink Machine (VSM) by Herrenknecht How are deep shafts constructed? Naturally, special machines are used for that purpose. Let me introduce Herrenknecht's VSM as an example. This machine bears some resemblance to a dentist's tool used for drilling teeth, except that its drill is incredibly massive. Once installed within concrete rings ranging from 4.5 to 18 meters in diameter, this drill meticulously cuts through the ground. Snowplow - Øveraasen TV2200 When there's just a little snowfall, all you need is a shovel to clear the snow from the road. But what if the surroundings are completely buried in snow? That's where the Overaasen TV2200, the most powerful snowplow in the world, comes in handy. This machine can remove up to 12 tons of snow in just one hour, and its snow-clearing operation is not only efficient but also incredibly spectacular. With its powerful cutters, it breaks down the snow and not only sucks it in with a massive blower but also blows it away laterally up to 35 meters away. Self-Propelled Forging Manipulator - Dango & Dienenthal Hydraulic presses are used to manufacture large metal parts such as rings and shafts. But how are the workpieces transported and flipped during the machining process? That's where self-propelled forging manipulators like the MSM series by Dango & Dienenthal come into play. These machines use grippers to grasp red-hot ingots and transport them to the press, rotating them if necessary. Rotary Cutter - Cutter Soil Mix Reinforcing soil is not an easy task, but Cutter Soil Mix provides a highly innovative solution to tackle it. Instead of driving piles or excavating holes to pour concrete, this machine quickly creates soil retaining walls. The wall is constructed in two stages, with the odd-numbered sections being consolidated first, followed by the construction of the even-numbered sections the next day. How is the process carried out? As two massive rotary cutters rotate towards each other, they penetrate the soft soil while an injection device pours a mixture of water and cement throughout the area. Shovel Truck - Hitachi EX8000-7 The EX8000-7 is the largest among Hitachi's standard shovel trucks. However, calling it "the largest" is an understatement! This colossal machine, or rather, monster, weighs a whopping 830 tons! This is equivalent to the weight of two fully loaded Boeing 747-400 aircraft at their maximum takeoff weight! To "stand firmly" on the ground, this shovel truck is equipped with a 1.85-meter-wide caterpillar track.
