CONEXPO 2020 !!! - Volvo - Cranes - Vermeer - Husqvarna - and other stuff and things

[@mikesmith-je3zt]

Those airplane landing was amazing

[@CaptainKleeman]

mike smith thought it was something different people might enjoy. Thanks for watching!

[@tbix1963]

Thanks for sharing more of your Vegas adventures. Some really interesting equipment there. Loved the time lapse of the airport, liked the planes approaching clip, reminded me of diner at Sims Landing in Golden Colorado. It’s on top of a very tall hill looking down on Denver and at the time the old Denver airport landing approach was straight at the window, and at any time you could see probably 30 or more planes stacked up coming in to land. It was simply amazing to watch. Started out with maybe 3 planes in a line in 8 parallel lines, then they merged into 4 parallel lines, then two lines, and finally one line landing. From placing our order to leaving there were still as many planes in the same basic pattern landing maybe a few min apart. Stay safe and virus free.

Tom Bixby now that would be something to see! Air traffic is fascinating. Thanks for watching!

[@neilopfer5687]

Thanks for another great video from ConExpo!! I didn't see that Huddig TLB/basket unit until the last day when they were wrapping up their exhibit. As to that Vermeer rock trencher, here in Las Vegas because of our caliche rock (typically 10,000psi-14,000psi) we use rock trenchers all the time. As an example, D-8 and D-9 Cats with rippers can't touch the caliche here in many cases so trenchers are used to cross-cut the area and then bring in the dozers w/ rippers. For pipe placement on large diameter sewer lines, the trenchers are used to make one pass on one side, then backfill and make another pass on the other side and backfill. Then bring in a large track hoe (like a CAT 390 or Liebherr 974 both about 90-ton excavators and cut out the center slot and then place the pipe. But the caliche is such slow going that on one job we were lucky to get 30 feet done in one shift. Without those big rock trenchers, this caliche is just bad news. Anyway, thanks for the great videos and the narration!!

Neil Opfer hey thanks for sharing the info! Would love to see pictures and videos from a job like that. Impressive machines for sure. Thanks for leaving the comment and thanks for watching!

[@sassafrasvalley1939]

After seeing all the big boys, those Husqvarna robotic demo machines looked like toys... Equipment is getting so sophisticated... can’t imagine todays public schools turning out the next generation of operators for them.... but then again, that’s what my dad thought about my peer group! Thanks for covering the other side of the show... lot of nice toys on display.

William Harris it was fascinating to see the opposite ends of the spectrum as far as size is concerned. Hope all is going well on your end sir!

Hey captain, that company that wouldn't give you the time of day, well that's a German company they make excavators,cranes, all that kinda stuff. That company is liebherr and it is pronounced Lee bear just is spelled differently liebherr. You probably already knew that but if not then now you do. Love the content keep being yourself and you will go far, don't change who you are for subscribers or for paid sponsorship if you keep you the same you'll go further.

While enjoying your video, I had a random thought. We ooh and aah over all this cool tech, but in a hundred years this will all look primitive and old fashioned. Think about an industrial fair from 1921 and you will see what I mean. Anyway, thanks for the vid and your work in bringing it to us.

[@matthewrecker1939]

@@CaptainKleeman i believe sterling crane bought it and its set up to hold three different booms. The technical name of the trailer is a boots on the ground boom launch. They are pretty wild to see them in action.

[@BlueDually4x4]

Equipment shows like that are a lot of fun. Volvo might make good equipment, but all of their trucks I have driven have left much to be desired. I like seeing what the European companies are doing with the compact machines, as most of those cites don't have the space for larger equipment to squeeze into.

[@CaptainKleeman]

BlueDually4x4 I agree about the European machines, always interestingly see what they are running there. I’ve never ran any Volvo trucks, but would love the chance! Thanks for dropping a comment and thanks for watching.

I like that you pronounce Volvo correctly. So it should be volvo and not valvo. Husqvarna is also Swedish and the letter Q in the name should be pronounced as a K. Also HUDDIG is a Swedish company that started its production in 1959. I am from Sweden, I know what I am talking about.

That’s not a bad idea for Husqvarna but how do they expect you to power it off of 3 phase when single phase can be difficult enough to have on site... That doesn’t surprise me about Vermeer either, they are some of the best out there. I bet them boys who dug the most recent pipeline across our place could have sure used that service!!! Haha! They trenched through solid caliche with a belt trencher made for sandy ground... they made about 10-15’/ day of they didn’t break down. It was bad. Lol
