P&H 4100XPC loading Caterpillar CAT 793

The one and only P&H 4100XPC in europe working in the aitik mine in northern sweden.
He loads Caterpillar CAT 793 trucks.

[@Mr.XYZ6775]

I worked at P&H mining equipment 1995-2001 as engineering contractor and worked on the 4100XPB model. I worked on the dipper shrouds, teeth, door, and the back of the dipper where it connects to the arm. Those steel plates range from .75 up to 3" thick. The welding symbols are really complex with specialized chamfers and back gauging burn welding. I slso worked on blast hole drills and 9100 dragline. This equipment went to Australia. I am now retired and totally brings back memories watching the machine work. 👍

[@sequoyah59]

Thank you for not screwing this up with cheesy music. Hearing the equipment work is music enough.

which music? I don't hear any music.

I hope you get to see one in person. They’re amazingly impressive. I drive a Komatsu 830e truck and work under them regularly. Occasionally, when loading out blocky material, we have to park the truck in position to be loaded, then exit and walk to a waiting light vehicle. You don’t realise how big the shovel is until you’re standing on the ground, meters away from its tracks.
