*Heavy Haul in Action: Transporting the Komatsu D475A Bulldozer with the MAN TGX 41.680*
Today’s video takes us to a large mining site, where we’re here for a special heavy transport operation involving the massive Komatsu D475A bulldozer. Weighing in at an impressive 107 tons, this bulldozer needs some maintenance, so it’s being transported from the deposit area to the main service unit for repairs. For this job, we have the powerful MAN TGX 41.680 special transport vehicle paired with a 7-axle Nooteboom hydraulic trailer, ready to handle this colossal load.
*The Komatsu D475A Bulldozer: A Giant of Earthmoving*
The Komatsu D475A is one of the largest bulldozers in Komatsu’s lineup, designed specifically for intense mining and earthmoving tasks. Its weight, power, and durability make it perfect for large-scale operations where it’s essential to move massive amounts of material efficiently. Here’s what makes the Komatsu D475A such a beast:
Operating Weight: Weighing around 107 tons, the D475A has the stability and traction required for the heaviest tasks in mining. Its weight alone is a testament to its durability and the strength built into every part of this machine.
Engine Power: Powered by a Komatsu SA12V170E engine that produces approximately 890 horsepower, the D475A has the muscle to push, rip, and grade material effortlessly. This horsepower is essential for handling overburden, clearing paths, and grading large areas of a mining site.
Blade Capacity: The D475A’s blade can hold up to 45 cubic meters of material, enabling it to move massive volumes with each pass. This capacity reduces the number of cycles needed for each task, increasing productivity on the job site.
Track Size: With wide tracks designed for maximum traction, the D475A can navigate challenging terrain with stability, making it ideal for use in mining and other heavy-duty environments.
The Komatsu D475A is a machine built for power and endurance, but even giants like this need downtime for maintenance and repairs, especially in such demanding environments. Transporting it to the main service unit requires a robust transport solution, and that’s where the MAN TGX 41.680 comes in.
*The MAN TGX 41.680: Heavy Transport Specialist*
The MAN TGX 41.680 is specifically built for heavy-duty transport jobs like this. With a powerful engine, reinforced frame, and advanced hydraulic systems, it’s designed to handle oversized loads, making it an ideal choice for moving the 107-ton Komatsu bulldozer. Here are the specs that make the MAN TGX 41.680 a top choice for heavy transport:
Engine Power: The TGX 41.680 is equipped with a 680-horsepower engine, providing the power needed to tow large and heavy loads over various terrains. The engine is designed for fuel efficiency without sacrificing the torque needed for hauling extreme weights.
Torque: Delivering around 3,000 Nm of torque, this truck can handle the uphill climbs, turns, and stops required when maneuvering such a heavy load.
Axle Configuration: With a 4-axle setup, the TGX 41.680 ensures stability and balance, spreading the load evenly to handle the Komatsu D475A’s weight.
Special Transport Features: The TGX 41.680 is equipped with advanced braking systems, hydraulic support, and reinforced axles. These features work together to make sure it can handle the weight and navigate both open roads and more complex terrains like those found at mining sites.
*The 7-Axle Nooteboom Hydraulic Trailer*
The heavy lifting is also shared by the 7-axle Nooteboom hydraulic trailer. With its hydraulic suspension and adjustable height, the trailer ensures that the bulldozer remains balanced and that the load is spread evenly across all axles. This distribution is essential for safely transporting such a heavy load, keeping both the transport vehicle and the cargo stable even on uneven ground.
