00:28Instead of relying on big cranks,
00:31the Gaussin ACM takes a more self-contained approach to moving containers.
00:37It is a self-propelled machine with a U-shaped frame and a hydraulic lifting system,
00:42which allows it to pick up, move and place containers as part of one process.
00:48Public technical information says it works with ISO 20-foot containers
00:53and can manage loads up to 25 tons or about 55,100 pounds.
00:59What makes it interesting is that it is not simply pulling containers from one place to another.
01:05The hydraulic U-frame lets the machine engage the container directly,
01:10lift it and move it across a site without depending on extra equipment like cranes,
01:15bridge cranes or gantries.
01:17That can be very useful in places where space is limited
01:21or where traffic routes, safety zones and building layouts make container movement more complicated.
01:27The ACM has also been used in more specialized environments,
01:31which says a lot about the kind of work it can do.
01:35Public reporting connected it to EDF's Shinon nuclear power plants,
01:39showing that it was used in a setting where control,
01:42safety and repeatable handling matter a great deal.
01:46Another point that gives the ACM some depth is that it does not seem to be a one-time concept.
01:52Gao Xin said the machine delivered to Shinon replaced an earlier ACM supplied in 2001,
01:59and the company reported that 12 units were operating by March 2018.
02:12Moving a yacht by road is a bit like trying to carry a whale on a hallway cart.
02:18It can be done, but only when the equipment is made for something that big and oddly shaped.
02:25That is what makes this modular low-bed semi-trailer interesting.
02:30It is not a standard trailer with a simple flat platform.
02:34It is a specialized transport unit made for yachts.
02:39Instead of treating the boat like regular freight,
02:42it works around the structure of the yacht itself.
02:45One of the main things that stand out is how adjustable the trailer is.
02:49The chassis can be extended and widened.
02:52The double side beam frame also helps keep the center area open,
02:56so supports and cradles can be placed where they are actually needed.
03:00That matters with yacht transport,
03:03because the load is not uniform and support has to match the lines of the vessel.
03:07The front section uses a detachable neck with adjustable height,
03:12which helps during loading and makes it easier to match the trailer to different tractors and support setups.
03:18The suspension setup plays a big role too,
03:21especially in places like marinas, port roads, yards and tight turns.
03:27Hydraulic steering with radio control gives the operator better control in confined spaces,
03:32and the suspension system helps manage load balance and travel heights while the yacht is in motion.
03:48Let's talk about this 8x8 all-terrain vehicle
03:52made for travel in places where normal trucks would have a hard time getting through.
03:56It uses a turbo diesel engine with 170 horsepower and 443 pound-feet of torque.
04:04That kind of setup matters because this vehicle is not about speed.
04:08It is more about having enough pulling power to keep moving.
04:13Inside, the equipment is practical and focused on real field use.
04:18It comes with LED headlights, two searchlights,
04:21heated windshield elements, heated front seats, heated side mirrors,
04:25a monitor-equipped head unit, liquid heaters for both the cab and passenger section,
04:31and an hour meter.
04:32What makes the Arctica interesting is how everything works together.
04:36The engine, tire system, drivetrain, and large insulated body all support the same goal,
04:43helping people and gear get across remote terrain in a wheeled vehicle that can carry a serious load.
04:49It uses a 5-speed manual transmission, along with a 2-speed transfer case,
04:54so power can be managed better when the terrain gets difficult.
04:58The steering system is hydrostatic, with power cylinders on the steerable axles,
05:03which helps control a machine this size.
05:05One of the most useful parts of the Arctica is its central tire inflation system.
05:10The driver can change tire pressure depending on the surface,
05:14which helps a lot when moving from softer ground to firmer areas.
05:29MetroTrux INT35 is a heavy wrecker made for serious towing.
05:34With a 35-ton boom capacity, dual 44,000-pound winches,
05:40and a 162-inch cab-to-center of tandem steel body,
05:46it has the kind of setup operators look for
05:49when they need strong lifting and pulling power on a regular basis.
05:53It comes with standard gear like frame fork holders,
05:57frame fork racks, chain racks,
06:00four sets of frame forks,
06:02manual controls on both sides,
06:04and safety chains,
06:05so it arrives with the main equipment needed for daily work.
06:09Its boom is one of the main highlights.
06:12It can lift 77,000 pounds when retracted,
06:16and 33,000 pounds when extended.
06:20The maximum lift angle is 45 degrees,
06:23and it reaches a hook height of 267.7 inches,
06:28with 89 inches of reach past the tailboard.
06:31The underlift also brings strong towing capability.
06:35It can manage 35,274 pounds in the retracted position
06:41at 83.9 inches,
06:43and 17,637 pounds in the extended position at 148 inches.
06:51On top of that,
06:53the tire lift setup provides 24,912 pounds total,
06:58while the fifth-wheel adapter adds more flexibility
07:01for certain towing jobs.
07:02In simple terms,
07:04the INT-35 fits into that middle space
07:07between lighter, integrated wreckers
07:10and much larger rotators.
07:12It gives fleets a strong option for truck tows,
07:16highway recoveries,
07:17and heavier roadside calls
07:19without stepping into the biggest category.
07:32Gaussin ATM is a yard tractor
07:35that moves trailers and semi-trailers
07:37around places like logistics centers
07:39and industrial sites.
07:41It is not meant for highway driving.
07:44Its job is to move heavy loads
07:46around private work areas
07:48where trailers need to be shifted
07:50or repositioned during daily operations.
07:53It uses a 4x2 driveline
07:56and two traction motors
07:57with a top speed of about 15.5 miles per hour.
08:02The payload is about 41.9 tons.
08:05There are two power versions.
08:07The battery electric model uses
08:10two swappable 55-kilowatt-hour battery packs.
08:14The hydrogen version uses a 15-kilowatt fuel cell,
08:18an 11-pound hydrogen tank,
08:20and an extra 20-kilowatt-hour battery.
08:23Both versions use the same
08:25modular electric platform.
08:27This model also fits into a bigger picture.
08:30Gaussin connects the ATM-38T
08:33with automated yard operations
08:35in gated logistics environments.
08:45Some machines do the quiet heavy lifting
08:48while everything else on site
08:49gets the attention.
08:51And this is one of them.
08:54The Bergman C815S
08:57is the kind of dumper that comes in,
08:59carries a serious amount of material,
09:02tips it where it needs to go,
09:04and heads back for more
09:06without making a big show of it.
09:08It is a large articulated site dumper
09:10made for moving things like
09:12soil, aggregate, spoil, demolition debris,
09:15and other construction material.
09:17What makes it stand out
09:19is the way it combines
09:20carrying capacity with maneuverability.
09:23Instead of acting like a regular truck,
09:25it bends through the middle,
09:27which helps it move through tighter spaces
09:29and work areas
09:30where turning room can be limited.
09:33It also comes in three different body types,
09:36so the unloading style
09:37can match the job.
09:39The rear tip version works well
09:42when material only needs to be discharged
09:44behind the machine.
09:46The three-way tip version
09:47adds the option of placing material
09:49to either side,
09:51which can help when working along trenches
09:53or narrow access routes.
09:55It uses a four-cylinder,
09:57water-cooled Cummins diesel engine.
10:00Top speed is about 25 miles per hour,
10:02and the hydraulic articulated steering
10:05allows 37 degrees of movement
10:07to each side.
10:09The chassis uses a leaf-sprung front axle
10:12and a rigid rear axle.
10:14A self-locking differential
10:16with a 45% locking value
10:18helps when extra grip is needed.
10:31When a big festival event ends,
10:33there is often a lot left behind
10:35on the ground.
10:36That is the kind of work
10:37Esky's Cleaning seems to focus on.
10:40It appears to concentrate
10:41on cleaning large outdoor event spaces
10:44such as festival fields and campsites.
10:47One of the most interesting parts
10:48of its work is the Festival Magnete.
10:52This is a magnetic cleanup machine
10:54used to pick up metal objects.
10:56That can include things like screws,
10:59tent stakes, coins,
11:01and small metal pieces.
11:02The machine uses magnets
11:04placed inside steel containers
11:06with wheels
11:07so it can move across the field
11:09while staying close to the surface.
11:11The unloading system also is practical.
11:14A lever lifts the magnetic part
11:17and the collected metal drops away
11:19from the bottom plates of the bins.
11:21Esky's Cleaning is also connected
11:23with other cleanup machines.
11:26The company mentions a large vacuum machine
11:29called Hermann's
11:30and a Widontech MC3 Event Cleaner
11:34which is a self-propelled tricycle vacuum
11:36for event grounds.
11:47What stands out first
11:49about the J-Law TMR
11:51is its sheer size
11:53and mixing volume.
11:55This is a twin auger vertical feed mixer
11:59used in large dairy and beef operations
12:01where a lot of feed needs to be prepared
12:04in one load.
12:06It has a standard capacity
12:08of 1,125 cubic feet
12:11and with side extensions
12:13that grows to 1,295 cubic feet
12:17depending on the extension height.
12:20The machine weighs about 23,100 pounds
12:24and measures 318 inches long.
12:27Some of the main details
12:29help explain how it works
12:31in day-to-day feeding.
12:32It uses three-quarter inch auger flighting
12:35a square-cut auger design
12:37and a welded mixing chamber.
12:40Current literature also mentions
12:42slide plate technology
12:43and tungsten carbide coated knives
12:46which help the machine stay effective
12:48when working through dense
12:49or high-fiber feed.
12:51It rides on a tandem walking beam
12:54with dual tires
12:55as a maximum discharge height
12:57of 68 inches
12:58and uses a 36-inch conveyor.
13:02In simple terms,
13:03this mixer takes large amounts
13:05of forage, grain, silage
13:07and supplements
13:08and blends them
13:09into a more even ration.
13:11The twin vertical augers
13:13move the material upward
13:15and inward
13:15folding everything together
13:17inside the chamber.
13:18The knives help break down
13:20longer forage
13:21so it mixes better
13:22with the rest of the load.
13:24That matters
13:25because a more consistent mix
13:26can help reduce sorting
13:28and keep the ration
13:29more uniform
13:30from start to finish.
13:42This is the kind of machine
13:43that looks like
13:44it would rather climb a mountain
13:45than sit still
13:46in a parking spot.
13:48It comes across
13:49as the sort of transporter
13:50that takes hard jobs
13:52very seriously.
13:54What makes it interesting
13:56is that it is not really
13:57about speed
13:58or flashy extras.
14:00It is more about control
14:01and the ability
14:02to keep moving
14:03when the work gets demanding.
14:05That is why it fits so well
14:07into farm work
14:08and municipal jobs
14:09where conditions
14:10can change a lot
14:11through the year.
14:12It sounds like a machine
14:13that is happiest
14:14when it has something heavy
14:15to move
14:16and a difficult route ahead.
14:18The way it works
14:20is pretty technical
14:21but the idea behind it
14:22is simple.
14:23The engine focuses
14:25on strong pulling power
14:26at lower RPM
14:28which helps
14:29when carrying loads.
14:31Instead of shifting
14:32through fixed gears
14:33the Vario transmission
14:35changes speed continuously
14:37so the driver
14:38has more control
14:39over how the machine moves.
14:42A little further
14:43into the details
14:44the machine uses
14:45a 136 horsepower
14:47four-cylinder
14:48turbo-diesel engine.
14:52The chassis
14:53and suspension
14:54also play a big role
14:56in how this transporter
14:57feels in use.
14:59With hydropneumatic
15:01suspension on both axles
15:03hydraulic rotation damping
15:05and a longitudinal
15:06differential lock
15:08it is set up
15:09to improve traction
15:10and stability.
15:21This machine is made
15:22to move heavy material
15:24through places
15:25where regular
15:26wheeled trucks
15:27can have a hard time working.
15:29It can carry up to
15:3128,000 pounds
15:32or 14 tons
15:35and one of its most useful parts
15:38is the 360 degree
15:39rotating upper frame.
15:42That means it can dump material
15:44in almost any direction
15:45without needing to move
15:46the tracks first.
15:48It uses a Cummins Tier 4
15:50final diesel engine
15:52with 320 horsepower.
15:54It also uses an HST
15:57hydrostatic transmission
15:58with two travel speeds
16:00reaching 3.6 miles per hour
16:03in first gear
16:03and 6.8 miles per hour
16:06in second gear.
16:08The hydraulic system
16:10is a big part
16:11of how this carrier
16:11does its job.
16:12It has dual drive pumps
16:14and maximum
16:15drive pump pressure
16:16of 6,090 pounds
16:19per square inch.
16:21In simpler terms
16:23this gives the machine
16:24the power it needs
16:25for dumping
16:26and other
16:27job specific attachments.
16:29It is a large machine
16:31measuring 20 feet long
16:3310 feet 11 inches high
16:35and 9 feet 8 inches wide
16:37over the tracks.
16:38Ground clearance
16:39is 24 inches
16:41operating weight
16:42with bed
16:43is 43,000 pounds.
16:46It also has a 58%
16:49gradeability figure
16:50equal to 30 degrees
16:52along with a zero turn radius.
16:54For more
16:55the machine uses
16:56standard ISO
16:58joystick controls
16:59with integrated dump controls
17:01and it can be set up
17:02with different options
17:03such as a dump bed
17:05rock bed
17:05flat bed
17:06spray boom
17:08rotating upper structure
17:09or dust control system
17:11depending on the kind
17:12of work being done.
17:24Moving a grown tree
17:25is a bit like relocating
17:27a small piece
17:28of the landscape
17:29and asking it
17:30not to complain
17:30about the trip.
17:33That is the kind of job
17:34this truck mounted
17:35is made to do.
17:37It is the largest model
17:38in Dutchman Industries
17:40lineup
17:40so it sits on the bigger end
17:42of professional
17:43tree moving equipment.
17:45Instead of being something
17:46for small transplanting work
17:48it is meant for larger trees
17:50that need a serious machine
17:51behind them.
17:53Dutchman says
17:53it can take on trees
17:55with trunks
17:55up to about 12 inches thick
17:57which puts it in the range
17:59of landscape stock.
18:00What makes it interesting
18:02is the way it works.
18:03The curved blades
18:05go down around the tree
18:06cut into the soil
18:08and lift out
18:09a large root ball
18:10so more of the root system
18:12stays together
18:12during the move.
18:20That matters
18:21because when a tree
18:22is transplanted
18:23keeping massive soil
18:25around the roots
18:26can help the tree
18:26adjust better
18:27in its new location.
18:29The machine
18:30also includes
18:31a circular frame
18:32which gives more room
18:34around trees
18:34with low and wide branches.
18:37Dutchman also points
18:38to several structural details
18:40that shape
18:41how the machine operates.
18:42The blades are cold formed
18:44and the company
18:45connects that
18:46with longer blade life.
18:49The numbers help show
18:51how substantial this is.
18:53The root ball
18:54measures 100 inches across
18:56and 61 inches deep
18:58while working height
18:59is 116 inches.
19:02Weight is another
19:03big part of the picture.
19:04The spade itself
19:06is about 11,100 pounds.
19:08The loader neck
19:10adds adds around 700 pounds.
19:12The root ball
19:13can reach about 13,500 pounds
19:16and total weight
19:17is about 25,300 pounds.
19:30To be honest
19:31moving huge equipment
19:33down a public road
19:34through city traffic
19:35is really hard.
19:37That is where
19:38something like
19:38the Feynmanville
19:39Highway Max range
19:41starts to make sense.
19:42Instead of being
19:43one single trailer
19:45it is a group
19:46of heavy haul trailers
19:48made for large
19:49and overweight cargo
19:50in the US
19:51and Canada.
19:52The Highway Max one
19:54is the entry point
19:55in the family
19:55and it already
19:56comes across
19:57as a very serious
19:58piece of equipment.
20:00It uses pendular axles
20:02with a long
20:02hydraulic stroke
20:04along with kingpin
20:05steering
20:06and counter steered axles
20:08which helps it
20:09turn more effectively.
20:10It also has
20:11remote steering override
20:13a compensating gooseneck
20:15with fifth wheel
20:16load adjustment
20:17liftable axles
20:18hydraulic axle compensation.
20:22The stretch deck
20:23reaches 89 feet
20:25axle group spacing
20:27can be adjusted
20:27up to 22 feet
20:296 inches.
20:30In terms of
20:31carrying ability
20:32it has a legal
20:33payload of more
20:34than 174,000 pounds.
20:38The Highway Max two
20:40takes that setup
20:41further
20:41by adding a
20:42three axle
20:43pin-on
20:44nitro booster.
20:45That changes it
20:47into a 12 axle
20:48single drop trailer
20:50and pushes
20:51legal payload
20:52close to
20:52205,000 pounds.
20:54It also includes
20:56a reinforced spine
20:57a self-tracking
20:59pivot booster
21:00with an extra
21:00steering cylinder
21:02kingpin steering
21:03on the main trailer
21:04and separate power packs
21:06on both the trailer
21:07and booster.
21:08The Highway Max three
21:10is the heavier
21:11standard version
21:12using nine
21:14hydraulically steered
21:15pendle axles
21:16together with
21:17a three axle
21:18Jeep dolly
21:19and a three axle
21:20nitro booster.
21:21With the truck
21:22included
21:23the full setup
21:24becomes a
21:2519 axle combination
21:26with a legal
21:28payload of about
21:29240,000 pounds.
21:41This trailer
21:42keeps things
21:43practical
21:44by focusing
21:45on low
21:45loading height.
21:46At the front
21:47the hydraulic
21:48lifting platform
21:49makes it possible
21:50to load equipment
21:51closer to the
21:52gooseneck
21:52which helps
21:53when carrying
21:54machines.
21:55That front section
21:56can support
21:57up to 9.9 tons
21:59in lifting
22:00equipment use.
22:01The gooseneck
22:03uses
22:03Feynmanville's
22:04outer beam
22:05neck setup
22:06which has a
22:07bolted
22:07outer beam
22:08structure.
22:09This gives
22:09different options
22:10for shape,
22:11length
22:11and turning space
22:13so fleets
22:14can match the
22:14trailer more closely
22:15to the tractor
22:16unit
22:16and the type
22:17of machine
22:18being moved.
22:19Technical
22:20fifth wheel
22:21loads
22:21range from
22:2213 to
22:2333 tons.
22:24There is also
22:25a choice of
22:26versions with
22:27or without
22:27a rear chamfer.
22:31At the back
22:32the trailer
22:32can be fitted
22:33with single
22:34or double
22:34hydraulic ramps.
22:36The newer
22:37flip tail section
22:38adds 9.8 feet
22:40of loading space
22:41when used flat
22:42and when folded
22:43up it shortens
22:44the vehicle
22:45by 7.9 feet.
22:47It can carry
22:48up to 11 tons,
22:50works with a
22:509 degree
22:51drive-on angle
22:52and its hydraulic
22:53functions can be
22:54controlled remotely.
22:56What stands out
22:57here is how the
22:58trailer makes
22:59loading more
22:59efficient without
23:00turning into
23:01something overly
23:02complicated.
23:03It keeps weight
23:04down while still
23:05offering strong
23:06point load
23:07capability
23:08which helps
23:09leave more room
23:10for payload.
23:21When something
23:22goes wrong
23:22with an
23:23aircraft
23:23crews need
23:24a safe way
23:25to get inside
23:26fast and
23:26help people
23:27get out.
23:28That is where
23:29the Rosenbauer
23:30E5000
23:31comes in.
23:32It is a
23:33specialized
23:34airport rescue
23:35vehicle that
23:36gives emergency
23:37teams direct
23:38access to the
23:39cabin and
23:39also provides
23:40passengers with
23:41another way
23:41to leave
23:42the aircraft.
23:43It can reach
23:44door heights
23:45from about
23:458.2 to
23:4618 feet
23:47which means
23:48it works
23:49with many
23:49common
23:50aircraft types.
23:51Rosenbauer
23:52says that
23:53it covers
23:53around 92%
23:54of standard
23:55aircraft doors.
23:57One helpful
23:58part of the
23:59design is the
24:00low platform
24:00edge above
24:01the driver's
24:02cab which
24:03helps the
24:03stairs line up
24:04with doors on
24:05short and
24:06medium range
24:06aircraft.
24:07The E5000
24:09is also made
24:09to keep
24:10operations simple.
24:11One person
24:12can control it
24:13through Rosenbauer's
24:14control system.
24:16The operator
24:17selects the
24:17aircraft type
24:18and door height
24:19then the
24:20stair unit
24:20moves into
24:21place after a
24:22safety check
24:23and can be
24:23adjusted more
24:24precisely from
24:25there.
24:26It also
24:27includes a
24:28hydraulic jack
24:29system with
24:29automatic level
24:30compensation and
24:32regulation so it
24:33can be set up
24:34properly even
24:35when the
24:35surface is not
24:36perfectly level.
24:38The staircase
24:38is about 4.9
24:40feet wide and
24:41the steps stay
24:42horizontal through
24:43a mechanical
24:43leveling system.
24:45Lighting is
24:46added along the
24:46stairway which
24:47helps during the
24:48night.
24:59Some machines
25:00arrive like
25:01quiet specialists
25:02rather than
25:03attention seekers
25:04and this one
25:05fits that idea
25:06well.
25:07Instead of
25:08trying to impress
25:09through size
25:09alone it stands
25:11out through the
25:11kind of work it
25:12is meant to
25:13carry out.
25:14From a neutral
25:15technical perspective
25:16it appears to be
25:17a custom truck
25:18mounted excavator
25:20created for ditch
25:21cleaning, shoulder
25:22maintenance and
25:23slope trimming.
25:24What makes it
25:25interesting is the
25:26way it combines
25:26road travel with
25:28excavation work
25:29in one machine.
25:31rather than relying
25:33on a separate
25:33hauling setup
25:34between locations
25:35it can move
25:36from site to
25:37site under its
25:38own power
25:39which suits
25:40maintenance
25:40operations spread
25:41across multiple
25:42roadside areas.
25:44It also appears
25:45to be a
25:45specialized conversion
25:47rather than a
25:47standard production
25:48excavator.
25:51Available information
25:52connects it with
25:53Echley Hartstahl
25:54a company known
25:55for custom
25:56construction work
25:57on heavy equipment.
25:59That context
26:00suggests the machine
26:00was developed
26:01around a specific
26:02maintenance role
26:03instead of following
26:04the pattern of a
26:05general purpose
26:06excavator.
26:08It is also presented
26:09as a machine that
26:10can work in narrow
26:11roadside zones
26:12such as areas near
26:14guardrails,
26:15medians and
26:15overgrown embankments.
26:17The machine's role
26:18centers on drainage
26:20ditch creation and
26:21upkeep, roadside
26:22grading, shoulder
26:24rebuilding and
26:25verge clearing.
26:26In those applications
26:27the rotating upper
26:29structure and
26:30hydraulic system
26:31allow attachments
26:32to be positioned
26:32with precision
26:33during work.
26:44Looking at the
26:45Povelli semi-trailer
26:47range, it becomes
26:48clear that this is
26:49not one single
26:50trailer with one
26:51fixed setup.
26:52It is a group of
26:54semi-trailers that
26:55can be arranged in
26:56different ways
26:57depending on the
26:58kind of cargo being
26:59moved.
27:00The range includes
27:01curtain cider,
27:03lowbed, flatbed,
27:04vehicle transport and
27:06special transport
27:07versions, so it
27:08covers a wide
27:09variety of transport
27:10jobs.
27:12A Povelli semi-trailer
27:13can come with either
27:14a straight frame or a
27:16gooseneck frame.
27:17That choice changes
27:18things like deck
27:19height and how the
27:20trailer moves with
27:21the tractor.
27:23The company also
27:24offers different
27:25fifth wheel heights.
27:26Axle options include
27:28BPW or SAF units
27:31with capacities of up
27:32to about 13.2 tonnes
27:34per axle, which
27:36places these trailers
27:37in the heavy
27:38transport category.
27:41There are also
27:42several suspension
27:43choices.
27:44These include
27:45pneumatic suspension,
27:47hydraulic pantograph
27:48suspension and hydraulic
27:50suspension with knee
27:51movement.
27:52In simple terms, this
27:54gives the trailer more
27:55flexibility when loading
27:57machinery or large
27:58industrial equipment.
28:00Lift axles can also
28:02be added, which can
28:03help with tyre wear and
28:04make the trailer easier
28:05to move when it is
28:06carrying less weight.
28:09When it comes to
28:10loading equipment,
28:11Povelli offers a long
28:12list of options.
28:14These can include
28:15manual or hydraulic
28:16rear ramps, ramp
28:18widening or narrowing
28:19systems, movable
28:21hydraulic platforms,
28:23anchor rings, hooks,
28:25aluminium side
28:26containment and
28:27lowering inserts.
28:28The hydraulic system
28:30can run from an
28:31electric pump or from
28:32the tractor's PTO.
28:34Some versions can also
28:36be fitted with electric
28:37or hydraulic winches
28:38of up to about 16.5 tonnes,
28:42often with radio
28:43remote control.
28:52This detachable towing
28:54unit offers solid
28:55capability for medium
28:56to heavy-duty
28:57recovery work.
28:59It has a 20-ton boom
29:00capacity, a 20-ton
29:02tow capacity, and a
29:04maximum boom lift
29:05angle of 43 degrees.
29:07The three-stage
29:09underlift can lift
29:1022,000 pounds.
29:12Standard equipment
29:13includes dual steel
29:15toolboxes, one set of
29:17fork adapters, four sets
29:18of frame forks, and
29:20safety and tie-down
29:21chains.
29:22There is also a long
29:23list of available
29:24options, such as
29:25wireless remote
29:26control, extra frame
29:28forks, single and
29:29dual-tire wheel lift
29:31receivers, a full
29:32recovery tool package,
29:34custom storage systems,
29:36extendable rear jack
29:37legs, in-cab controls,
29:39air and electrical
29:41outputs at the
29:42tailboard.
29:43In simple terms, this
29:45unit lets a suitable
29:46truck work as a tow
29:47and recovery vehicle
29:49without staying in that
29:50role all the time.
29:52It can be attached when
29:53towing work comes up
29:54and removed when the
29:55truck is needed for
29:56something else.
29:57That makes it a
29:58practical choice for
29:59fleets that want
30:00towing ability while
30:02still keeping the truck
30:03available for other
30:04jobs.
30:05From a technical point
30:06of view, the unit
30:07combines strong lifting
30:09power, useful underlift
30:11reach and good towing
30:12geometry for moving
30:14disabled commercial
30:15vehicles.
30:16The Worm Gear
30:17hydraulic winch adds
30:19controlled pulling power
30:20during recovery work.
30:22Another important point
30:23is that this is a
30:24modular system, so the
30:26exact setup can vary
30:28depending on the
30:28production year or the
30:30customer order.
30:41next one is a large
30:42tracked dumper made to
30:44move a lot of material
30:45in places where normal
30:47wheeled machines can
30:48struggle.
30:49It uses a six-cylinder
30:52water-cooled diesel
30:53engine with 241
30:55horsepower.
30:56It meets stage 5
30:57emission standards.
30:59It has two speed
31:00ranges, 0 to 5 mph in
31:03speed 1 and 0 to 9.3
31:06miles per hour in speed 2.
31:08What really matters with a
31:09machine like this is how
31:11it works on soft and wet
31:12steep ground.
31:14Since it runs on tracks
31:16instead of wheels, the
31:17machine spreads its weight
31:18over a larger area.
31:20That helps lower ground
31:22pressure and gives it more
31:23grip where a wheeled
31:25dumper might start
31:26slipping.
31:28The low center of gravity
31:30also helps it stay more
31:31stable while dumping
31:32material.
31:33There are two body
31:35versions.
31:35The rear tip model weighs
31:3731,000 pounds and carries
31:40up to 22,000 pounds.
31:42It measures 19 feet long,
31:449.5 feet wide and 11 feet
31:47high.
31:48The swivel tip version is a
31:49little heavier at 32,700
31:52pounds, but it keeps the
31:54same payload and body
31:55capacity.
31:56The rear tip version makes
31:58sense for simple haul and
32:00dump work.
32:00The swivel tip version is
32:02more useful when material
32:04needs to be placed more
32:05carefully, especially when
32:07there is not much room
32:08around the dump area.
32:19A high-capacity trailer with a
32:2130-tonne payload.
32:23When fitted with the optional
32:25bolt-on extension, heaped volume
32:28increases to 49 cubic yards.
32:32Published dimensions include a 30-foot,
32:349-inch frame length, a 21-foot tub
32:37length, the hinge assembly uses
32:40self-aligning spherical bearings
32:42and includes grease points for
32:44service.
32:45The standard hitch uses a 2-inch
32:48drawbar pin, while scraper-type
32:50adapters are available.
32:52This off-road trailer is used in
32:54construction, site preparation,
32:56and agriculture, where high-volume
32:59material movement is needed.
33:01Its side dump layout allows
33:03unloading to either side, which
33:05helps when site conditions limit
33:07the usefulness of rear dumping.
33:09It also supports wind rowing and
33:12controlled stockpiling, giving
33:14operators more precision in where
33:16material is placed.
33:19A hydraulic front hitch with a
33:21stronger shaft and a linear shock
33:23absorber contributes to ride
33:25quality, and suspension revisions
33:27help reduce movements after crossing
33:29difficult terrain.
33:41Next vehicle came from a joint
33:43development effort between GAUSIN
33:45and PSA, and it was introduced in
33:472017 as part of Singapore's push
33:50toward cleaner and more automated
33:52port operations.
33:54What stands out most is the mix of
33:56self-driving capability, electric
33:59power, zero local emissions, and
34:01fast charging.
34:03It can carry about 71 tons and
34:06travel at around 15 miles per hour.
34:08Its job is to move shipping
34:10containers between storage areas
34:12inside the port.
34:14In PSA's Singapore setup, it also
34:17uses an ultra-fast charging system
34:19made for the demanding conditions of a
34:22marine terminal.
34:23The charging system is enclosed,
34:25waterproof, and uses automatic
34:27connection and disconnection, which
34:30helps reduce service needs.
34:32Reports from PSA's case study say the
34:35vehicle can work for about 4 to 5
34:37hours after less than 20 minutes of
34:40charging.
34:40The system also allow quick battery pack
34:43changes during maintenance, which helps
34:45keep the vehicles in service longer.
34:48It is not something made only to attract
34:50attention at an event, it was meant to do
34:53real work inside PSA Singapore's
34:56Tours Megaport project.
34:58Since ports like this rely on constant
35:00movement and careful timing, a driverless
35:03electric vehicle like this fits well into
35:06that kind of setup.
35:15This is a small battery electric tracked
35:18dumper made by Bergmann Maschinenbau in
35:21Germany, and it is the sort of equipment
35:24that makes sense the moment you see where
35:26it is supposed to work.
35:28It is made for moving material in places
35:30where space is limited, like gardens,
35:33nurseries, parks, and smaller
35:35construction areas.
35:37What stands out right away is that it
35:39works quietly and produces no emissions.
35:42Another thing that gives it a lot of
35:44character is the tracked undercarriage.
35:46Instead of wheels, it moves on tracks,
35:49which helps it travel across difficult
35:51surfaces.
35:52Its narrow shape also helps in courtyards,
35:55along walkways, and in other areas where
35:58a larger machine would feel harder to move
36:00around.
36:02There are three versions, and each one does
36:05the same basic job in a slightly different
36:07way.
36:08The front tipper is the simplest version, and
36:11is meant for carrying material like soil,
36:13gravel, sand, green waste.
36:17The high tipper adds more dump height, which
36:20is useful when material needs to be emptied
36:22over a higher edge.
36:23The self-loader adds a loading unit, so it
36:27can pick up, carry, and unload material in
36:30one cycle.
36:31All three versions use a 12-cubic-foot
36:34skip, and weigh about 1,102 pounds.
36:38The front tipper and self-loader can carry
36:41about 1,764 pounds, while the high tipper can
36:45carry about 1,543 pounds.
36:58Haul more in a single trailer with a standard
37:01CDL, declares the company.
37:03And this trailer is all about moving a lot of
37:06material in one trip.
37:08It has a six-axle setup, a 53-foot frame,
37:11and a 40-foot tub, so it is clearly made to
37:15carry serious volume.
37:17The body is 102 inches wide, with a height of
37:218 feet 7 inches at the tub side, and 9 feet 7 inches
37:25at the center.
37:27Its axle setup combines three fixed 25,000
37:31pound axles, with three 13,200 pound Ridewell
37:35AirRide steerable lift axles.
37:38AirRide suspension comes standard.
37:40For dumping, it uses 3,500 PSI cylinders,
37:46with 6-inch bores mounted at both ends of the tub
37:49instead of the middle.
37:50That setup allows the tub position on the frame
37:53to be adjusted to help with axle balance
37:56and legal payload distribution.
37:59The tub has a one-piece floor, rounded corners,
38:03and external column supports.
38:05It also has no center divider, which helps material
38:09move out with less hang-up when unloading.
38:12What stands out most is that it can haul up to
38:1537.4 tons in one trailer.
38:19It can dump to either side,
38:21and it can also stockpile or windrow material.
38:34Here we have an electronic air suspension system
38:38used on commercial vehicles such as trucks,
38:41trailers, buses, and some other work vehicles
38:44that use air suspension.
38:45It runs on a 24-volt system and works with parts
38:49like an electronic control unit, height sensors,
38:53solenoid valve blocks, airlines, air springs,
38:56wiring, driver controls, and diagnostic tools.
39:00Depending on the vehicle, it can be set up
39:03for one axle, two axles, or more.
39:05In some cases, it can also connect with other vehicle systems
39:09through a CIAN bus network.
39:12It can control ride height automatically,
39:15raise or lower the vehicle when needed,
39:17store selected height positions,
39:19adjust height based on speed,
39:22return to normal driving height,
39:24and help technicians find faults during service.
39:27In simple terms, this system helps the vehicle
39:30stay at the right height when the load changes.
39:33Instead of relying only on mechanical parts,
39:37it uses sensors and electronic controls
39:39to check how high or low the chassis is sitting.
39:42The control unit reads that information
39:45and tells the air suspension when to add air
39:48or let air out.
39:50That way, the vehicle can return to the height
39:52it is supposed to have.
39:54When more cargo is added, the chassis drops lower,
39:57so the system puts more air into the suspension
40:00to bring it back up.
40:09Some loads are like trying to fit a giant puzzle piece
40:13onto a trailer.
40:14Don't worry, we have the perfect equipment for that load.
40:18Instead of being a standard low bed
40:20with everything centered in a familiar way,
40:22this version is more about adjusting the trailer
40:25to the shape of the cargo.
40:26The phrase, laterally offset with inclined frame structure
40:31sounds complicated, but the basic idea
40:33is not too hard to follow.
40:35It means the loading deck is shifted a bit to one side
40:38instead of sitting perfectly in the middle,
