- Video from the oil sand mines of northern Alberta, Canada. The shovel is loading over burdon at around 70 to 90 ton each pass. The 797 has a 400 ton pay load.

Terex acquired O&K in 1998. Bucyrus took over Terex Mining in 2010, and Caterpillar acquired Bucyrus International in 2011. During the acquisition Cat revamped their model names so in actuality the RH-400 is the same machine as the 6090 FS, just with a new model number.
The RH400 is now a Caterpillar 6090
The sound of those two massive engines in her what a roar she makes amazing
Thanks for posting this video. These machines have had various names as corporate purchases changed their owner, but they still rock! It is an awesome collection of engineering triumphs, to get that much power applied to a hardened bucket, and it impresses everyone who learns about it.
That shovel is parked right now awaiting a four and half million dollar retrofit. Under carriage and center pin I believe.
The CAT truck? The tires are about 18-20 feet tall, like the Terex version. I have a pic of my dad standing next to a Terex the same size. He is 6'4". Two of him can fit in the circumference, with room to spare. They are AWESOME to stand next to! Just ginormous!
No it's not because it doesn't exist. If you mean EX-8000 it's still not bigger. 40m3 bucket and 894 tons and 3880hp vs the RH-400 (now the CAT 6090 FS) 52m3 bucket and 1080 ton operating weight with 4500hp.
Has a bucket payload of 104 tonnes of dirt each scoop for the Cat 6090.

O&K RH and always will be!
Many thanks for your prompt answer.
I could watch this all day.
Think those clam cylinder bearings need grease and quick
Actually "blind side loading" is in reference to the cab of the SHOVEL. The trucks are coming in on the shovels blind side, due to the mine running left/right spotting. First truck gets loaded on the left side of the shovel and the second truck lines up with the right side (alternating). Generally trucks should self spot to make this efficient however every mine has their own safety rules. Can't back in unless spotted, or have to load cab side only etc.
That is one beautiful beast.
Both of those giant BEASTS!!!
Yes. The O&K RH-400, Terex RH-400, Bucyrus RH-400 and Cat 6090 FS are all the same machine, just different owners. Cat is the current owner.
@@EquipmentHistory no they weren't
Its Mainly still an O&K RH400
What a beauty!
Legend has it, this is one of 23 "worlds largest " shovels, all different.
I want to go work in Fort McMurray, and I really liked service maintenance of all kind of big equipment specially Caterpillar.
The 797B has a 380 ton payload and the 797F has a 400 ton payload.
Electric rope shovels are mainly used in the tar sands I believe, think these large hydraulic machines are being used less these days.
nice wheeled dozer in the background
BEAST!!!!!
my thoughts exactly!
what a monster!
It looks like a smiling dinosaur when the bucket opens!

well the cab is on the other side of the truck. makes a huge blind spot backing in on the opposite side. safety issue more than anything. but im sure the shovel operator is spotting them in and talking to them as they back in.
Depends. Komatsu shovels the cab is on the other side. Our site we stick to on side as much as we can, only to help the truckies. But if we want to be pricks or need to we will load blind side. Truckies should be good enoungh to under, no spotter needed.
Is that because it has to be loaded on the driver's side for communications? Or for some other reason?
So the world largest hydraulic shovel is CAT.
Yep, Because Cat bought this from Buycurus.
*facepalm* go back and read my comment again. EVERY MINE HAS THEIR OWN SET OF SAFETY RULES specific to their company. Some allow self spotting (zero wait time on loading tool as there's always a truck sitting beside waiting to be loaded), some (this video for example) allow dual loading but require the trucks to be spotted, and some you have to load cab side only. Again these rules are MINE SPECIFIC, and sometimes vary by loading tool as well.

Do you work in the oil sand mine?
What you expect them to change overnight?
I wonder will they build bigger anytime soon that the 1000 ton class
Well the 6120 is about the weight of an electric. There's only 2 built as a majority of customers had issues during the 2014 oil crash
The6120 is heavier than this, but not more powerful though.
We bought 4 brand new Terex TA400 moxy trucks a few months ago... they have had problem after problem, one of which are windows that do not seal shut and let copious amounts of dust and water in, brake brackets failing and one computer failing. Just a heads up :-( Awesome vid though!!
As man and machine slowly consume earth
nice shovel... the two PYLONS hanging from the boom are spotting aids so the truck driver can line the side of his (or her) truck parallel to the cones... truck back in straighter, shovel can load faster...
Hy.
Do you work in the oil sand mine?
what mine is Operating that machine
How does someone get involved operating one of these for a living?!
How much these operators get paid?
Constructicons, unite!
yes my comment was just agreeing with you. just added the fired part in there. it wasnt meant to say you were wrong. i was just saying.
ehhh, I dunno. I do watch that every day.
How can I get one of these jobs...?
Not enough. I sit in a PC8000 ( little bit smaller ) for around 10 hours a day. Pay is not enough.

Wrong. 797B has a 400 ton pay load. The reason some of the 797Bs have a 380ton pay load is purely due to box configuration.
2:07 and it never transformed.
Prima Terex poi Bucyrus e ora Caterpillar....ma sempre e solo ORENSTEIN & KOPPEL!!!
Being the truck driver must be an easy job. Drive the truck and sit around for a few minutes as you get filled up.
H4g3N87 hahahaha!
One of the most boring jobs in the world.
This looks like fun to work on, but i assume doing it day-in-day-out can become REAL boring right?
Sure ...
400US tons this is "only" 363 metric tons (363000kg)
Too short
truck driver=$47.80+ 10% bonus
P&H shovel Operator= $57.18+ 10% bonus
Rt Dozer Operator= $51 +10% bonus
I wish..those were the good old days in northern Alberta. You won't be seeing those wages anymore. Unless you go to Australia which is where I'm going to get a pay raise😊
งานหนักต้องใหญ่ๆๆๆๆๆๆ
Eu jã trabalhei como operador destas maquinas na Camargo correia odebrecht e na vale do rio doce em Parauapebas para.e em muitas outras empresas.
Isn't the Liebherr R9800 the biggest hydrolic excavator in the world?
Nope the CAT 6090 is bigger.
Yes it is, this is a hydraulic face shovel, not an excavator
@@smartliving4464isn’t face shovel a type of excavator?
must b nice 2 have $
4000 HP
*4500
well i work in america. thats just how we roll.
- do i think the world would be more fun with a V10 f5500 POWER edition: yes, but i under stand my grandkids would some day hate me for it
man, that truck took forever to get under the bucket!
ok. Why is it a CAT now?
It went from the ORIGINAL company that made this machine O&K to Terex to Buycurus and THEN Cat.
it was long haul and the fucking scavenger
She,ll be right, workshop will fix it
Bring more diesel
Grease on clam...yikes
Not really, constantly trying to guess what the truckers are going to do keeps it interesting. Just when you think you have them figured out....they change their plans......LOL.
Lets see,you use oil&plastic.Interesting.Your rite its not an all or nothing situation but the fact here is NENE and you are both pointing fingers.My point is don't blame problems on other people when you are well and truly just as much of the problem as the person your blaming.The word i believe is hypocrisy.Running scared?Not at all my friend,i have a very skilled and sort after trade and simply CHOSE to work in the oil sands.I have the skill and ability to work where ever in the world i want
That hydraulic shovel's a bad mother*shut yo mouth!*. But i'm talking bout O&K RH 400.
well it might be like that in canada but here where i work at you will get fired for blind side loading.
Getting fired for making the production rate increased by reducing spot time between trucks, hard to fathom how people have let things get to this all on the back of "it,s not safe"
youre loading the truck on the wrong side !!!! lol
Our Prime Minister is against letting people immigrate to Canada that's why he raised the retirement age. And won't let seasonal workers get any kind of unemployment insurance during the off season.
mmmmmmm :)
the Hitachi EX 8800 is bigger
Nope, this machine way bigger.
Im pondering the last comment.One word remains heavily in my mind,
Hypocrisy.Do you drive a vehicle,use plastic or power?yes? I will call you a hypocrite.Gas comes from oil, 60% of Alberta's oil goes into products such as plastic,45% of North Americas power come from mined coal.
You have some kind of computer or smart phone?These are riddled with mined precious metals such as gold,platinum,copper Not to mention the plastics.
No to all of my questions? congrats,you are no hypocrite

It's not a alll or nothing game i bet NoEcologyNoEconomy make changes and sacrifices to his life to use less oil.
i use oil but i drive a small car most of the time, and i really try to insure that the plastic i use ends up in getting recycled.
Your running scared because your job or life or stupidly tall pickup truck is a risk of undergoing some small change. Put the denial to bed.
