*Transporting Two Bulldozers: Caterpillar D6K and D6R on a Heavy-Duty Trailer*
In today’s video, we follow the process of loading and transporting two powerful Caterpillar bulldozers—the Caterpillar D6K and Caterpillar D6R—on a single heavy-duty trailer. The machines were hauled to a service unit near a mine using the robust MAN TGA 41.660 truck. This seamless operation showcases the logistical coordination required to move heavy equipment efficiently and the impressive specs of these mighty machines.

*Caterpillar D6K: Precision and Efficiency*

The Caterpillar D6K is a mid-size bulldozer designed for precision earthmoving tasks, offering a balance of power, control, and efficiency. It is often used for grading, leveling, and pushing material on construction sites and smaller mining operations.

Key Specifications:

Operating Weight: 13,270 kg (29,250 lbs)
Engine Power: Powered by a Cat C4.4 ACERT engine, delivering 130 horsepower (97 kW).
Blade Capacity: Up to 3.07 cubic meters (4.02 cubic yards), allowing efficient material handling.
Ground Speed: Maximum forward speed of 10 km/h (6.2 mph).
Precision Features: Equipped with advanced grading technologies, including optional GPS systems for fine control.

*Caterpillar D6R: Heavy-Duty Workhorse*

The Caterpillar D6R is a more robust bulldozer, built for heavy-duty applications such as mining, large-scale earthmoving, and land clearing. Its greater power and capacity make it ideal for challenging terrains and high-volume tasks.

Key Specifications:

Operating Weight: 21,000 kg (46,300 lbs)
Engine Power: Powered by a Cat C9 ACERT engine, delivering 207 horsepower (154 kW).
Blade Capacity: Up to 5.4 cubic meters (7.1 cubic yards), perfect for pushing large volumes of material.
Ground Speed: Maximum forward speed of 11 km/h (6.8 mph).
Durability: Built with a heavy-duty frame and reinforced undercarriage to withstand harsh environments.

*The Transport: MAN TGA 41.660 and Heavy-Duty Trailer*

To transport both bulldozers, a MAN TGA 41.660 truck was paired with a heavy-duty trailer designed for oversized loads. This combination ensured a smooth and efficient journey to the service unit near the mine.

MAN TGA 41.660 Truck Specifications:

Engine Power: Equipped with a 660-horsepower V10 engine, providing the torque required to haul heavy equipment over long distances.
Axle Configuration: Features an 8×4 axle configuration, ensuring stability and weight distribution during transport.
Payload Capacity: Designed to handle loads exceeding 120 metric tons, making it ideal for transporting multiple machines.
Transmission: Advanced automated transmission for smooth and reliable performance under heavy loads.
Heavy-Duty Trailer Specifications:
Load Capacity: Built to support the combined weight of the D6K and D6R bulldozers, totaling approximately 34 metric tons.
Hydraulic Adjustments: Ensures precise balancing and secure positioning of the machines during transport.
Axles: Multiple axles distribute the load evenly, reducing stress on the trailer and road surfaces.

*The Loading Process*

Positioning the Trailer: The trailer was carefully positioned to allow the smooth loading of both bulldozers.
Loading the D6K: Being lighter and smaller, the D6K was loaded first and positioned toward the front of the trailer.
Loading the D6R: The heavier D6R was loaded next, ensuring a balanced weight distribution across the trailer.
Securing the Load: Both machines were secured using heavy-duty chains and straps to prevent movement during transit.

*The Journey and Delivery*

The convoy departed early, with the MAN TGA 41.660 truck effortlessly handling the load across varying terrains. After a steady journey, the bulldozers arrived at the service unit near the mine, ready for their next phase of operation.
