Large dozer long passes

[kdlehel]

probably is the biggest bulldoser grate machine.

[umwhatthistime]

wouldn't it be better done with a bucket? Seems really inefficient

[xXThermobaricXx]

@umwhatthistime No. Its a bulldozer not a loader.

[xXThermobaricXx]

@umwhatthistime No. Its a bulldozer not a loader.

[redboy9230]

that is what we call down south a grown ass man 

[31Giora]

how much money you make? by operating on the dozer?

In Israel 3000dollar a months!

[56pw]

Thats alot steeper than it looks! Imagine what these big boys could produce without the grade...

[manolodelano]

maravillosamente aberrante........

[manolodelano]

ooohhh it has spent 50 liters of diesel.......

[prutsclown]

what amount of fuel does it take per hour?

[Langtry613]

THAT THING IS A FUCKIN ANIMAL!

[TurboGSR96]

I have to laugh at the idiots that think a D11 will outpush this, put this blade on a D11 and it wont do jack shit this blade is almost TWICE the size of a D11 blade.

[bradconway1]

@TurboGSR96 The only problem with these were they only ran for 10 mins before breaking down. D11's always win on reliability,

[katzruler]

that's one big dozer...

[Refreshernoob]

what do bulldozers actually do lol it seems like they do nuthing

[harryscrotum007]

@Refreshernoob you must be blind and stupid

[buteaux34]

@Refreshernoob I guess moving a mountain is nuthing.

[SpeedDemonS7]

@Refreshernoob just looking at them on a long push it seems that way ,but as the job moves along they can spread more material than any other machine and its cost effective

[TheInGenCO]

as far as i know, that is the biggest ever build!

[trainman071]

that is one of the biggest bulldozers ever built.

[MrCico76]

bel mostro, mette i brividi

[slimerus]

thats a small dozer!

[hwoods01]

Wow, I move machines in KY, and never can find 575's.. I know they are there, but the beasts are as elusive as Bigfoot.

D11's are as common as raccoon's and possums

[Baphamatt]

What is the goal here? Road, mine, waste of machinery as mentioned below lol just curious

[GlobalMiningMachines]

@Baphamatt Strip mining I'm assuming, the dozers are removing overburdon from what I can gather. Very unlikely you'd see a dozer of this size on a road job

[c931D9]

outstanding high quality vedeo.  thank you.

[GlobalMiningMachines]

There's nothing wrong with their method. Its a carry bladed dozer, its supposed to carry large capacities over long distances. This is a relatively short distance. I also believe their stockpiling this overburden hence the climb. For the D11 fans raving on about how it would out push this komatsu, you are living in fantasy land. Cat D11R CD=57yards V Komatsu D575A= 90-125yards depending on blade spec

[bperry1647]

@GlobalMiningMachines The only difference is the D11R or T can push in E. Kentucky Rock...One job I worked on had 6 475 Komatsu's and they all started breaking down at 8k hours...A D11 is Just gettting broken in at these hours...finally Komatsu moved all big dozers out of E. Kentucky until they could figure out the problem...Even the Japenese Tech's stated the D11 were superior in this type of hard rock...

[GlobalMiningMachines]

@bperry1647 I wasn't getting at the which is a better manufacture, I was only stating that in no circumstance would a D11 push a larger volumes of material over a 575. I myself am a Cat man over Komatsu any day but thats simply my preference as an operator. I've never experienced the E.Kentucky Rock so I'm in no position to comment on it.

[ozcranedude]

It seems to me that these two operator know what hay are doing or they wouldn't be on these multi million machine doing this task. please also remember that these operators may not agree with what they are doing but do it as the bosses ask.

[godackgudalach1]

Maybe the Foreman should be their I would fire that motherfucker

[godackgudalach1]

Fucking wow waste of an undercarriage and fuel... all over the machine as well

[godackgudalach1]

Holy fucking shit their is all these people saying they have all this experience but no one has yet to tell me why in the fuck he is pushing so long?... push a pile to a pile and work you fucking way back whoever owns this equipment must not give a shit about cost and maintenance

[bperry1647]

@godackgudalach1 Many times a long push is needed when opening a new pit...the mines I worked would push out long the first shot then drill the next shot on an angle so they could cast most of the next shot...After the shot there would be 60 foot of highwall already cast out...

[toddly2009]

I reckon the komatsu gets better traction with more forward weight than the cats, who wasnt paying attention last time they fueled up... haha cool vid

[kylerw1]

D11 can out push this thing any day, it just doesnt role the dirt like a CAT does.

[56pw]

@kylerw1 Your joking right??? It would take two 11s to out push that big KOMATSU......

[kylerw1]

@56pw we had a 575, and a d11, side by side, and in the dirt we were in, glacier till, d11 walked away.

[c931D9]

I see 2 very experienced and productive operators. The big Komatsu is impressive. My 12 years experience has been with Cat D9H and D10. To me, this kind of dozer work was as good as it gets. A good machine, plenty to do and nobody bothering your, especially the foreman. Up-grade pushing is not the most efficent applications for these machines, none the less they are very productive. Thanks for this video.

[mstaff657]

I see nothing but an inexperienced operator

pathetic

[bumoffhtestreet]

Is that an old Caterpillar 20?? LOL someone needs to post a vid of a D575 and a D11 side by side for comparison

[sbf433]

now thats a dozer!!!operator knows what he his doing too

!

[bansao77]

This that is to take mount in the chest 7:24

[kortison]

The best ever footage of this dozer, LOVED IT!

[ihaveairlockers]

I can't afford one of these... or the fuel to run it

[DevinL16]

world largest dozer-FACT

[CAVSFAN2360]

WOOOW!!!! AWESOME VID!!! Finally a good 575 vid!! 5000 stars (if it would go that high) :)

[generationll]

It maybe so 550Deere but this Komatsu can push 90 yards in a single pass.Komatsu also introduced their first 1,000hp bulldozer the D555A at Conexpo 81 in Houston.

[550deere]

What the hell,,big waste of time and fuel...

[djambalaz]

Its not hard to make a difference between this machine and all other dozers even on video.This dozer pushes alsmost twice as more than anything else and climbind such a hill with so much material in the blade is quite impressive

[allistairc123]

fantastic! this is the first proper footage of the worlds largest production dozer!, thanks for sharing!, 5stars and favourite!

[generationll]

A beautiful shot at 7:24

[miffb]

Great Vid . Nice to see the big KOMATSU D575 in action .

[generationll]
