  • We visited Singleton Birch Quarry in Barnetby UK to test drive and operate their 150 tonne, 360 Liebherr R9150 Mining Excavator.
    The R9150 is the biggest and most powerful plant machinery I have ever operated, thanks ‪@LiebherrGroup‬

    It is a ME dipper. (Mass Excavation in Caterpillar machines) A short dipper gives more power than a long one, and is all that is needed if the digger is on the bench loading below, also gives faster cycle times.

    Great review, everyone loves big machines! If I may, a couple of tips for your drone pilot/operator.... no need to fly solo with something so big and so slow ( you came close to losing the drone on one occasion, but that was because you were screen flying). You could have just set the drone up to orbit at a set distance and altitude, that way all you had to do was move the camera or adjust the height, direction and speed as it did the orbit...makes for a much smoother shot, especially when you have the time and space to do it. 👏👍

    We use Lime Powder at Nissan Sunderland in the new Emissions compliant Paint Shop! A series of 56 rotary lime drums underneath the primer, basecoat and clearcoat booths catch all the overspray via a negative pressure down draft and the dirty lime gets evacuated into big a 70 tonne silo (Mounted on a mezzanine floor, 6-7m up outside. The top of the 70 tonne silo is 17.9m from ground level!) This replaces a traditional Wet Floor system commonly found in spraying plants/booths!

Last 10 years i've been working on cranes, they are fun to work on too...
