Collins new VOLVO EC950 excavator loading A60H trucks.

The first Volvo EC950F excavator at work in the UK with Collins Earthworks.
Helping to move over 1.3m cubic metres of material to form a new distribution park, the Volvo is paired with a fleet of Volvo A60H articulated dump trucks.

This is the machine Letsdig18 dreams about at night.

[@computer2492]

They had a Volvo 290 he dident like it wasent fast enough, and this is muuuuuch slower than that even.

[@Rickimusic]

I think it is a bit slow for Chris's taste. That bucket is huge but Chris like fast. :)

[@TrevorDennis100]

Imagine the cost and difficulty of moving a machine that big between job sites? The 220 is a good compromise AFAICT. MrAJ.Works has a 220 and I always thought it moved quickly. Now Chris has his own 220, and that also looks to be fast for its size. Chris has the versatility of his articulated grading bucket. Machines like the 950 just aren't designed for that sort of work. They stay in one place, and probably need to be dismantled to transport. Blimey... I just checked and they can transport an EC950 mostly in one piece! kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4i8pmCGgd5qebM

Not sure why I find the excavator beautiful and the best invention in earth moving equipment.

Nice video 👍🏻 this construction site is a dream for volvo fans 😍

There's also a few Caterpillars around there too!

Smooth operator👍

[@Fiberglasser03]

Looks like some nice dirt to be working in.

[@RPAMEDIA]

Pretty hard in places though

[@michaelmullins1290]

The overhead shots were nice. If the under carriage shot was on the front of the machine, that would've been snazzy.

I work for Ardula in kent have had the experience of the collins machine loaders they are very very good at there job. Hats off boys

Terry from Christchurch New Zealand love to do some work on the motocross track with that,,, just move a couple hillsides around.

Some big tracks!!

Nice one paul that EC950 has no problem loading the A60H

Certainly doesn't Stephen, it's a joy to watch.

Beautiful excavator and great you'll able to catch all the big machines! ;-) What kind of project is that?

[@RPAMEDIA]

Thank you Ben! They are moving 1.3m cubic metres to form an industrial park

[@BeytekinConstructionMachinery]

@@RPAMEDIA A, ok, thx for the info!

[@Ubeer85]

I compared the collins EC750E with this 950F and the 750 loaded an A60 with 4 buckets in ~1minute. The 950 also needs four buckets but are just as fast or sometimes slightly slower. I know the 950 is brand new and it need to run a month or two before the hydraulics can be tweaked but atm its actually less efficient then the 750 due to it being a larger machine wich consumes more fuel for the same amount of job

[@RPAMEDIA]

We had two 750Es next to the 950 and they were both 5 passing the A60H

[@Ubeer85]

@@RPAMEDIA You are right. On your other videos the 750 is loading what appears to be much softer material but in 4 passes. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2XMYXielJpoprs

@@Ubeer85 The colliery spoil does seem to bulk up more

[@Ubeer85]

@@RPAMEDIA Yes it seems so. Great footage, keep it up

[@jacobconrad1362]

Did you also compare that the ec950 does not have SCR/DPF standards . That’s why no one runs them in the states . More uptime on the ole 950 and probably cheaper running? Just a thought.

[@Alex-uy7pc]

It's kind of amazing how long it takes all the dirt to fall out of the bucket, does anyone else know what I'm trying to say? Maybe it's clay and it's all sticking together inside the bucket?

[@stevenyoung1999]

Maybe coz there’s 20tonne in a bucket?

[@suresren]

Sounds like it needs some grease,

[@redstihl9027]

I'd wanna watch out that the tail didn't swing round and smash the cab when the dumper was loaded 😬

Amazing machine. Is that the biggest bucket that you can use on the 950 or do they come bigger? A machine that large seems like the bucket can be much larger.

it's a 6.75m3 bucket, you can go to 7
