- On today’s episode of Mega Mechanics: the dangers on a high wind, deconstruction project. One misstep could bring the mighty coal service conveyer belt to a standstill, and it’s up to the mechanical fitters to keep it moving. A sticky situation at the Rocky Point Sugar Mill calls from a quick fix from a hydraulic specialist.
Across Australia, the wheels of industry turn 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. These machines are tough and the teams of people running them are even tougher. From deep underground, to high in the sky, these heavy metal marvels are essential to our daily lives. But, what happens when these massive machines break down? Teams of mechanics, engineers, fitters, and boilermakers step up to battle against tight deadlines, in some of the harshest working environments on the planet.

Another awesome show!
Mega Mechanics....Down under...What could be better...? Thanks from Ky. state.!
26:50, guess the snapon truck makes it’s way to the airport as well.
At the sugar processing plant you've got 5 guys standing around while one guy works. Reminds me of my workplace at American Airlines.
Nice!!!!
Everybody have a lucky day , good care
A kitten dies every time he says "tonnes".
is the sugar mill still working? I thought the whole area might be housing developments now
42:40 - it's better to halt and go over schedule than try to remain within schedule, cause damage to the building etc and waste more time and money by doing so.
You can plan well ahead, but you cannot always factor the things Mr Murphy can do into your planning.
👍👍👍
Here’s something I noticed about this film.
I did that sort of work for nearly 2 decades, but there isn't much of it left here where I live anymore.
Glad to see Quantas still doing their own heavy maintenance. But how much do they outsource to China? I worked for American Airlines until they closed our Alliance Maintenance Base and sent my job to HAECO in China. 23 years and I was forced to retire.
Pallet dolly? In the usa it's called a Pallet jack
Strange to have to call a Rexroth tech to change a heat exchanger. Airliner maintenance seems to be easier. Everything has to be by the book which comes from the plane builder. At the mills most jobs are determined what, how, and when by the maintenance people.
No
👏
Spark Vids are always about drama!!!
We use silicone n duck tape to fix our equipment lol. Frfr tho
DANGEROUS DECONSTRUCTION?????????
R U FUCKING KIDDING ME?
The sugar mill's in-house maintenance has to call a contractor to do repairs? What do they pay the local good-ole-boys to make the phone call? Dead weight duds.
theres a C in schedule...
The way he pronounces "schedule" hurts me a little bit
Of course, coal will always be available.
Wow I've never been unemployed in my life and here I sit
Working from birth, what a life... Or were you not alive until you started serving others?
@@Theloss52 o lord you're stupid it's not serving no one it's making a living fuck the government serving me shit let's go back to work
typical DRAMA-doc, very little actual content :(
I noticed that this film shows 3 of the things that contribute to climate change and one that can solve it. Both coal operations and the plane operation cause co2 emissions but the sugar cane factory can reduce them if it makes ethanol for biofuel.
This film jumps around from each topic way too much. Just show us whats happening at one site, and move on. Finish the job, I don't want to keep coming back around.
The Chinese could do it much cheaper..why keep employing expensive Australian workers
where are all the feminists on the job?
