I ran that thing 3 years ago but I'm not 100 percent if that was me or not. Lol. Oiled for a few years on nightshift first. Some days everything felt smooth and went well other days hell on earth. 😂
How reliable is that excavator? Is there a lot of downtime and maintenance? How many tons per bucket?
Love the music!! Machine noise is always best!!
I don't know how and why some people do dislike to a beautiful video like this??
Ya me too
i really love watching your videos Pamining being a retired operator i ran a lot of these pieces of Equipment its enjoyable to see them once again . thanks so much keep them coming please !!
Thank you! I enjoy filming them just as much.
these older cable machines seem simpler more efficient than new hydraulic ones.
So good to see old iron still out there working.
My and father and I moved this machine from Bingham Canyon, Utah to Kentucky. Nice to it still swinging dirt.
Small world, that's cool!
You may know my dad he use to work for P&H out of WV
Trucks could probably hold more
Excellent footage.
That is one beautiful beast !
Nice blast materials....easy digging..
It's interesting to see older technology like rope shovels still out there and killing it in mines. Are they still around because of lower costs compared to a hydraulic front shovel, or are there other reasons?
Electric shovels in general are designed to last for decades and are meant for long-term mining projects. These machines are simple in design and manufactures offer numerous electrical and computer upgrades for the machines as they get older.
Good to know! I've always wondered. Thank you for the reply.
And, they are bought and paid for. Lol why we still occasionally run Dart 600D wheel loaders. Because they are paid for and can only make money
I'm watching from Tanzania 🇹🇿
Does the shovel have a train horn on it?
nice video. not that oporater first day on the job three scoops done next truck.
Good shovel man. Doesn't kill the trucks, unlike the nitwit we had. And looks like Komatsu bought out the Corn Poppers. Hear a hammer pecking away in the background. Good one, pal!
I say let them dig!
let's see more. nice job
Haha, ok! Thanks
what a monster thanks for the video.
Your welcome, glad you liked it!
Wow that Machine has balls!!! Good Vid!
Electric shovels always have balls!
Welded plus 10 tons of metal to the ladle, and then they are surprised that the parameters of the electric motors fall and the cable often breaks)))
That thing has to be lifting at least 80 tons a bucket or 90. 830s are probably 300 ton trucks or close to it. We use to have 2 730s at the mine I worked at and alot of cat 789s.
Easily, it's amazing the raw power these machines have. The 830s are 240 ton.
830's are 240 ton trucks.
In this video, he's doing around 60 to 65 tons per pass.
The 830e is indeed a 240t truck... we blue skied this design in 1986 and 87 in Peoria.
The Hoffman Crew could use one of these...
Them bunch of clowns will not be able to operate it you need more than radio headphones
Hoffmans couldnt find gold if they had the keys to fort knox!
Great video,one large machine! Is it electrical power,don't see any exhaust stacks?
You're right, it eats electric energy.
Yes, it's an electric shovel. Thanks!
I really love your videos ! do you ever operate these machines ? would be fun watching you operating in a video , thanks so much keep up the fine work !!
I've had some opportunities to be in the seat. It's always been fun to play around for a bit. But no I do not operate as a profession. I am a mining engineer. Thanks!
awesome video
Thanks!
So I guess the silver spade would make this big guy look kinda small? And I'm guessing that the spades shovel could, in theory, pick up that hauling dump truck? Yes?
Well it probably could but the silver spade was cut up & scrapped after a history group couldn't raise enough money to buy it & the land it was on .
👍👍
What's the biggest cat truck y'all got?
None on this job! All Unit Rig MT4400s and Dresser 830E's
I heard that. Are ya around any cat 789 trucks?
Trump gonna bring back MORE jobs 🦅🇺🇸🤘🏻‼
Christ, that thing is big.(apologies)
That's what she said..
Certainly interesting video. My gramps bootleged hard coal in Northumberland County. He would drag me along to the "strippins" while on summer break. Good times. Thanks for the cool videos 👍
Is this an Electric shovel? I don't see any exhaust stacks.
Yes, it is electric powered
as Always i love your work. nice to se a smooth operator in action.
How many people does it take to operate the machine?
One man operates the shovel . I’ve never run one myself, but I’ve been on board and watched from directly behind the operator.
Awesome machines . Over 100 tons per scoop .
1 person
1 person to run it. Several to keep it running.
I wonder if people do maintenance on it in the back while it is working ? Probably too much movement.
one
A longer video would be great!
Whats the difference with the xp series boom?
Mmm... Classic rope shovels are the best!
Is a rope-shovel turn around faster than a hydraulic version? Looks it!
With the right operator and in well blasted material, a rope shovel is always faster than a hydraulic shovel
When hydraulics arnt enough and flexible steel wire rope is required to haul arse lifting the bucket up n down. Those drums must move to see that bucket move so quick. Powerful. There would a stupid amount of torque on the drum reels. I know those trucks load 300 tone so the buckets probably 100 tonne capacity.
Good video
what an odd cab for an shovel of that type sort of small for that size shovel
keep up the great work my friend thanks for getting back to me about the diorama so quick
The cab is actually of age with the base machine. That's how the P&H Cabs from the 1970s looked. Thanks!
The early 2800's had the sloping front windows.
