Machine with moving counterweight: Priestman VC20
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 лип 2022
- This 1988 Priestman VC 20 has a variable counterweight which negates the need for one very large counterweight in a fixed position.

Thank you Love the counter Wt. Set up. Such a work of art as far as long reach. That dipper pull cable is so sweet set up for pull in. Such a clean machine.

Neat machine! I have never seen one before now. I watched before I read the description and I honestly couldn't tell if it was a new machine or an old restored one. It has design cues that make it look both modern and old at the same time. A transition piece is really what it is. Nice restoration there.
And the engine is burning cleaner than some of the new def fluid tractors

I believe there was once a smaller VC 8 (12 tonne) think the 8, 15, 20 is metres from centre of slew
Operated one of these in the UK they drive really well it got a hydraulic leak and sprayed oil on the exhaust manifold it burnt out I wasn't operating that day it was a shame nice machine
thats pretty much a dragline, the counter weight makes the arm pull, i dont think its primary function is just a counter weight, i think it takes the place of a hydraulic ram....
IF that cable were to snap guess who’s getting decapitated
longlive oldschool 💪💪❤❤❤
Perfect example of over-engineering

Luar biasa boss
That's really frickin cool
I been working with a lot of different machine but this is the 1st time I a kind of this thank you for sharing
I remember PRIESTMAN excavators like this in the late 1980's with a RED and White paint colors, however I don't know if they sold out but Northwest Equipment Engineering sold out to Terex after it's owner died around 1990.
Thank you for information on Northwest. I Remember a big Contractor in my area. Had a Big BE Excavator. They rigged it up with Hydraulic bucket. It was a monster machine.
( Cable) I still see the poor ( Koehring 1266) all separated in there Equipment bone yard. Myself bought a 1978 Dynahoe-190 for play toy, that's all I could afford and keep from era gone by. I miss those old neat looking machine's. At least from watching U-Tube. There are guys out finding older CABLE Rigs and restoration them.
Would like to see some more of the 60s &70s
Era Hydraulic excavator being rebuild for show and tell. Loved them when there where like multi levers or foot pedal in cab. A guy had to know what he was doing. Swing was never left or Right on Joy Stick.
@@rp1645 B E was BUCYRUS-ERIE, I do remember CATERPILLAR bought out BUCYRUS-ERIE which was BUCYRUS INTERNATIONAL because BUCYRUS strictly made the cable rope mining shovels and Rotary Blast Crawler Drills, the acquisition probably was about 2005 to 2008 somewhere in there, all the former BUCYRUS shovels have the CAT name now. I don't know what happened to KOEHRING after 1988. I was looking for also BANTAM at that time too.

In 1986 ( Koehring) was Purchased by ( Northwest Engineering Company) and two year later Merged into ( TEREX) organization
My quote is from ( Keith Haddock) from the great History book.The Earthmover Encyclopedia. In 1993 ( Koehring) withdraw from Excavator Market. ( Northwest) faced dwindling Sales and Discontinued it's Hydraulic machine in 1983. ( Schield. Bantam) became a Division of ( Koehring Company) in 1963 but the Excavators continue as ( Schield. Bantam) in production at the ( Waverly plant) until 1983
Then the remaining products were sold under the ( Koehring) name. In 1988 ( Koehring) became a Division of ( TEREX Corporation)
After being purchased by ( Northwest Engineering) two years earlier. This is just "quotes" out of that great Encyclopedia. strongly urge you to get the book, it will answer a lot of your questions. You are just like me. I love to see who brought who. Were did the Excavator get bought up by. The interesting thing to me like you said the BE machine in open mines just got a ( Yellow) Paint job. I like ( CAT) stocks. They are giving me a profit on Return. I told my investment person, wanted Retirement funds in a big Manufacturing Company of Heavy Equipment that are made in America. I am a NERD about all Heavy Equipment. I am so glad for U-Tube to bring all these videos to me to watch. I can "quote" you more on the ( Priesman) they used them to fight OIL fires in (Kuwait) during ( Operation Desert Storm) they are still available today from ( RB Cranes Ltd) at Redford England. Again this is "quote" from book.
@@rp1645 Yes I am glad that I have operated CATERPILLAR equipment in construction and mining fields, it seems like there is a lot of heavy equipment history out there, but it ashamed to see 👀 older equipment to be scrapped and not have any paint or other maintenance, some equipment cost too much just to be transported into smaller pieces especially for today.
What an unusual type of excavator,combination between cables and hidraulics to move the machine
I like that old excavator .❤♥️⚡
Well that brings back awful memories.
love machines .
Amazing super top .from Brasil excavator .
Great video! Awesome to see these guys bring this old iron and work it for everyone to see. I need to come across the pond sometime and check out one of these events
Lots of great shows here during the Summer and some interesting machines making an appearance after 2 years of covid lockdown

Kan lang...
Used to drive one can't be rushed
Awesome nice video
Nice video bro🥰
Neat!
Looks and sounds great. What weight are the Vc15/20?👍🏻🏴
From Memory there was a 15/15 15 Tonne with 15 metre reach.
20/15 20 Tonne 15 metre reach.
20/20 20 Tonne 20 metre reach.
Crowd force is probably pretty strong .
Terbaik Bossku 👍👍❤️
The VC machines was the best LR excavators: big bucket, long reach, the VC counterweigh idea:
the current LR excavaotrs , Japaneses projects , are good only for polish the grass from rivers sides.
Unfortunatly, the VC , are finish
Stupid RB International managements!
암을 특이하게 제어하네요ᆢ케이블과 유압 실린더와의 조합이 특이 합니다 좀 복잡하게 제작되었는데 지금의 수준으로는 이해가 안되네요 카운터웨이트와 암 구동용 실린더와 와이어를 함께 작동하는 특이한 작동방식 입니다.
nice video bro
Противовес классно работает 👍
Как это все будет заполняться водой!?
@@user-gg3ep3ik5k Чаго !?? ..
Wow
Why does it move? I cant see any mechanical advantage to it moving vs 8f it was fixed at the back.
Dang in 1988 I was a 11 yr old kid
Good
Очень грамотная конструкции
I ran one back in 1990 à little bit longer reach
Lebih stabil kayaknya sih ini
Roughly how old is this one ?
It's not a counterweight to balance the machine but to operate the arm!
half csbles and half hydraulics. huh! didnt know that was ever built
I think old technology is cool but new old technology not sure if it’s going forward of backwards and that likely why you don’t see this flooding the market in the modern world
Apa yang bisa Anda

Nice camera (sarcasm)
Looks like the last of the dinosaurs. Full hydraulic machines will out perform this last gasp relic for 99% of tasks. What ever advantage it has must be fairly small compared to modern long reach excavators.
Looks to me like it would put it up to a hydraulic long reach! Maybe it’s just the driver he’s too class

Wouldnt even spill your beer. Love it
Looks like 1960s.
What was this event?
Need operator maldives
Link Club at Sibbertoft U.K.
Maldives need operator
if that cable snaps guess who isnt eating any soup at lunch this machine is not a good idea
