Base machine, usually a crawler crane, of adequate capacity Hose handling system, for both hydraulic and slurry hoses; these systems can use either a hose drum or a hose tension design Hydraulic cutter, which typically consists of two cutter wheels powered by a hydraulic motor , a slurry pump , and flaps to control its direction in case of ...
Crawler cranes range in lifting capacity from about 40 to 4,000 long tons (44.8 to 4,480.0 short tons; 40.6 to 4,064.2 t) as seen from the XGC88000 crawler crane. [58] The main advantage of a crawler crane is its ready mobility and use, since the crane is able to operate on sites with minimal improvement and stable on its tracks without outriggers.
Piping and instrumentation diagram of pump with storage tank. Symbols according to EN ISO 10628 and EN 62424. A more complex example of a P&ID. A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows: A diagram which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation used to control the process.
Hydraulic excavators are somewhat different from other construction equipment in that all movement and functions of the machine are accomplished through the transfer of hydraulic fluid. The compact excavator's work group and blade are activated by hydraulic fluid acting upon hydraulic cylinders. The excavator's slew (rotation) and travel ...
Fluid flow in an external gear pump. A hydraulic pump is a mechanical source of power that converts mechanical power into hydraulic energy (hydrostatic energy i.e. flow, pressure). Hydraulic pumps are used in hydraulic drive systems and can be hydrostatic or hydrodynamic. They generate flow with enough power to overcome pressure induced by a ...
A crawler excavator, also known as a track-type excavator or tracked excavator, is a type of heavy construction equipment primarily used for excavation and earthmoving tasks. It is characterized by its tracked undercarriage, which provides superior mobility and traction compared to wheeled excavators, especially in soft, uneven, or unstable ...
A Manitowoc Model 999 lattice-boom crawler crane. The Manitowoc lattice boom crawler crane product line has 16 products and two capacity-enhancing attachments. Manitowoc lattice-boom crawler cranes was the beginning of Manitowoc Cranes until the major acquisitions in 2001. In 1969, Manitowoc introduced its flagship crane, the Model 4100W.
In 1959 crane expert R.H.Neal, hydraulics specialist F.Taylor, and design director Bob Lester, integrated all three and modernized cranes. The Coles Hydra Speedcrane appeared in 1962, further modified with the 10-ton fully telescopic hydraulic boom in 1966, followed in 1968 by the 30-ton "Husky" military versions with four-wheel drive .
