They'll be reasonable size, but of a swappable design. The types of places these trucks operate are ideal for having a depot to just switch battery packs a few times a day. A small logistics hurdle, well worth the benefits of reduced fuel and maintenance costs as well as faster operation due to the higher power and torque of electric drive.
@@brianhawkins these trucks run 12 hour's shifts and with their payload I think it be a miracle if they make a battery to last an hour,but if they wanted guess they could stick few solar panels on the roof lol.
yeah we had a few that were up there around that, we were seeing steel fatigue in our non destructive testing and metallurgy analysis strictly from age/weather combo. Its not hard to break these vehicles though ill disagree whole heartedly with you there! Mainly because the smaller haul trucks like this, are owned by contracting companies that get paid to move the dirt by the volume they move, so most contracting companies load these trucks up so they have an absolute pyramid on the box of them, creating all sorts of carnage for the rest of the war wagon!
haha man ive spent 12 full hours trying to get a truck going with heat trailers and tarped in, block heaters plugged in and a lil persuasion with a propane torch here and there on air fittings and relays that are frozen
oy dale, love the comment! super intrigued to hear where you did your failure analysis training on these top rings breaking pal? Also, I agree that ether shouldn't be used unless it has been deemed an ether bunny like this one and your supervisor wants it moved by any means necessary, cheers
@@westrootsindustries9916 Your bang on right here.. Also top rings !! Ok I’m sure with those broken up the engines junk.. We haven’t come across top rings busting..
Yes sir, has 2, one on either side of the engine. This war wagon was finally going in for a planned rebuild, this was a last ditch effort to just get it going and get it off site for rebuild
Hey there, in northern Alberta Canada. Specifically Fort Mcmurray. I cannot remember the hours on that exact engine, definitely not original engine, as the chassis on their fleet was approaching the 100.000 hour mark.
@@westrootsindustries9916 Thank you v much. 100,000 unbelievable how these girls just keep going.. What was the temperature when u started her and how long since the last shift.. Found u on Google earth along side the Athabasca river .. Great thing google earth 🌍 Really appreciate the video From Uk 🇬🇧 Our local finnings dealer is only around 6 miles away.. Cat rules
Hey there, Yeah, massive air tank on the upper deck, controlled by a little air relay thats electrically controlled by the ignition. Saves for charging batteries in the -40 weather when you try for hours to get these beasts going once they are shut off!
@@stephmmillersm I now I was having brain fog..🤗.. lol Love these cats and especially there wonderful engines.. The hours they can do in such harsh conditions is truly unbelievable 😜.. Heat Cold Dust Stress
Air starter, some ether and there he goes, Nice movie and good diesel sounds
Throw some light on air starter.

Can't wait to see the size of green energy batteries they going use to power these 😂

@@brianhawkins Once they figure out the onsite powerplant/powergrid problem XD
Wait what..... they replacing diesel WITH BATTERIES😭😭😭😭😭
Actually, there are trucks that powered by power grid and have train style pantographs. Nothing new under the sun.
ain't nothing like a can of summer air brother
Where I came form either was referred to as a can of head lifter!!!!
Wait, your haul trucks get cold? Here in Aus they run 24/7 until they're broken, get fixed and do it again haha
Yes, after a PM service in the field at 50 below, it might not want to fire back up.
Its hard to break these vehicles. It would be an understatement to say they were heavy duty. Some of these have over 130,000 operating hours

Siapa yang bisa
once you use ether to start a cat engine, you will more than likely have to use it to start that engine from then on!
Ya breaks the top rings,then wears out the bores. Idiots
yeah this truck was known as the ether bunny for that exact reason. I agree, shouldn't ever be used unless situations like this arise.
oy dale, love the comment! super intrigued to hear where you did your failure analysis training on these top rings breaking pal?

Id like to see the engine bay on this bad boy
It's alive! :)
That pneumo start is like from Mad Max 😁
Guess that air starter got a little clogged with the mining fumes
Well, there is not much chance of that engine becoming a run away !!! 😂🤔
0:41 what is that sound💀
Haul trucks have air starters is what that sound is

789? Nice, we drive the 793s over here in AZ, US. doesn't get quite that cold out here
How dare you! Lol
Love it!
good recording up close.
That sounds like a 1693 idling. I know it's not sure sounds good
You would think a propane powered thermo-siphon engine heater would be standard equipment.
how would that fair at -40 degrees celsius ? propane would freeze and so would the truck haha. cheers

@@westrootsindustries9916 We have diesel powered engine heaters on lots of our equipment, got most of it running in -42C this year
You working on one of north Americans trucks?
MAX VOLUME
Nice!
Did this truck get its engine rebuilt?
This thing does not have a block heater? Or does it?
They should be plugged in below -10°C.
Yes sir, has 2, one on either side of the engine. This war wagon was finally going in for a planned rebuild, this was a last ditch effort to just get it going and get it off site for rebuild
Was that a oversized can of Binacca blast?

Air starter?
Whats air starter?
Yep it's an air start
You can hear that it is an air starter.
@@sakibsarwar9542 Like a normal starter but it uses compressed air instead of a electric motor
Think of it like an windy gun in a workshop, just a bit bigger.... 👍
Summer air 😂😂
