Bucyrus-Erie 50-R, 55 feet high and housing a massive drill, was used in the successful rescue of two miners during the 1963 Sheppton, Pennsylvania mining disaster. [17] 1250-B/W and 1260-W walking draglines, with buckets between 33 and 45 cu yd (25 and 34 m 3).
The first major design change to tracked loaders came with the integration of hydraulic systems. Using hydraulics to power the loader linkages increased the power of the loader. More importantly, the loaders could apply down pressure to the bucket, vastly increasing their ability to dig compacted ground.
The Vickers VR180 Vigor was a British crawler tractor, built from 1951 to 1958 by Vickers-Armstrongs. Since the 1920s, the company gained substantial experience in the design and construction of tanks and continuous track vehicles. After the war they developed a civilian crawler tractor that could be sold for use in peacetime reconstruction work.
A bulldozer or dozer (also called a crawler) is a large, motorized machine equipped with a metal blade to the front for pushing material: soil, sand, snow, rubble, or rock during construction work. It travels most commonly on continuous tracks , though specialized models riding on large off-road tires are also produced.
The Komatsu D575A is a 1,150 horsepower (860 kW) tractor crawler produced in a 'SR' or Super Ripper bulldozer/ripper configuration, or as a dedicated bulldozer in the form of the 'SD' or Super Dozer. [1] Both models can move 90 cubic yards (69 m 3) of material per pass using the standard blade.
Hesston 5670 round baler, in 2010. AGCO was established on June 20, 1990, when Robert J. Ratliff, John M. Shumejda, Edward R. Swingle, and James M. Seaver, who were executives at Deutz-Allis, bought out Deutz-Allis North American operations from the parent corporation Klöckner-Humboldt-Deutz AG (KHD), a German company which owned the Deutz-Fahr brand of agriculture equipment.
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 ...
From 1985 onwards, all new machines carried the 'RB' name instead of 'Ruston-Bucyrus', and in 1987, a new mechanical/hydraulic powered 51–60 model developed from the 38-RB was offered for use as a crane or dragline excavator [1] In 1990, RB bought from its rival Priestman, the design and manufacturing rights to Priestman's Variable ...
