*Some things I observe* The Excavator looks to be in the range of 20-30ton Kobelco excavator, potentially SK180LC or SK260LC. Wide Bucket I estimate to be around 2m wide, with 1.5m3 per bucket general rule of thumb. *Quants* - In the video the Excavator loaded 34 buckets at around 1.5m3 per bucket minus 2% for wastage over the side of the truck = 50m3 rounded. - Generally the Excavator can load 33 buckets every 10 minutes or 49m3 rounded less wastage - Below based on 8 hour's productive, in a 9.5 hour day (minus lunch, pre-starts & general loss of time) & 5.5 days a week - Based on a constant provision of trucks & a months stockpile *Per day* - Move 2,352m3 per day *Per week* - 12,936m3 per week *Per month* - 51,744m3 per month (wont bother with yearly or quarterly because that is too big of a stockpile to be realistic) *Cost* - Based on NZD market rate of $220/hr which includes machine hire, oils and operator converted to Euro - Based on 250 liters diesel a day at local Ireland average of $1.25/ltr divided by 8 hours productive - Which means a total cost per hour of$169.37/hr (Euro) *Per day* - $1,610/day rounded *Per week* - $8,855/week *Per month* - $35,420/month Therefore it costs roughly $0.68 to move 1m3 of Peat from that bench into the trucks, not including the second Excavator feeding the stockpile.
@@ESAgri Oh, id just leave an inch or two of peat on where im working. When im loading out one of our aggregates that is screened and mixed to a certain spec I just do the same thing. Small bit of waste for a much happier customer and faster/cheaper job for the company.
OMG! Those miniatures are very detailed! Even down to the operator moving a hand to his face! This is just about the BEST RC channel ever!! Lol,JK. Good video!
ArthurDentZaphodBeeb if it were a conveyor it would have to be moved every tens mins or have two diggers driving the peat up to it. If it were a rubber duck then it would just sink into the peat
@@Jack--mu3gs Cat 953 lgp track loader feeding conveyors to surge bin and central loading facility is what I was envisioning. Or small portable conveyors fed by track loader. Seems a lot of unnecessary wear and tear on those super-lgp excavators with current set up.
Not very efficient. Killing the drivers if they get paid by the load. Load from the back of the pile and track foward, reduces half of the 180 swing arc. Bigger bucket, less cycles. Excavator feeding the pile is worthless swinging 180 to drop a single bucket. Dont swing, hoe into the pile and keep pulling to the loadout. Better if replaced with a dozer to push down the windrows.
With the added weight of the lgp tracks you don't need as much counter weight. It probably has a better stability and better center of gravity compared to the conventional set up.
You might know it as turf. Dried-up plants from ancient swamps, mostly. It is sold in garden-centers as compost but when it is dry it is used as fuel in rural parts of Ireland in the form of compressed briquets. This load goes to a powerstation i think, probably Shannonbridge. Google turf fire Ireland and you'll see what i mean.
They’re driving on dirt lmao as if some guys gonna convince any of them to come sweep off dirt just to watch the truck get dirty again as they drive away
Great video! 👍 I've never seen tracks quite that wide before.
I have never seen a crane with such large wheels, it is truly impressive
Nice drone footage thank you.

- Generally the Excavator can load 33 buckets every 10 minutes or 49m3 rounded less wastage
- Below based on 8 hour's productive, in a 9.5 hour day (minus lunch, pre-starts & general loss of time) & 5.5 days a week
- Based on a constant provision of trucks & a months stockpile
*Per day*
- Move 2,352m3 per day
*Per week*
- 12,936m3 per week
*Per month*
- 51,744m3 per month (wont bother with yearly or quarterly because that is too big of a stockpile to be realistic)
*Cost*
- Based on NZD market rate of $220/hr which includes machine hire, oils and operator converted to Euro
- Based on 250 liters diesel a day at local Ireland average of $1.25/ltr divided by 8 hours productive
- Which means a total cost per hour of$169.37/hr (Euro)
*Per day*
- $1,610/day rounded
*Per week*
- $8,855/week
*Per month*
- $35,420/month
Therefore it costs roughly $0.68 to move 1m3 of Peat from that bench into the trucks, not including the second Excavator feeding the stockpile.
The tracks make it look smaller looks like a 13t
Ciaran Cotter Maybe.
@@beaup8312 140SR on the side of the digger, nice maths tho!
mr2paddy Thanks.
It is a small excavator with lgp tracks. It's probably pretty good on fuel as it is new and probably 15 tons at the most.
the excavator tracks look interesting.. are they sold somewhere?
Excavator is fine for stacking and such but im sure once piled a loader with a mulch bucket would be at least 5x more efficient.
loader would sink lol. cant pick straight off the ground cause youd pick stones

Sweet looking set-up for sure!!👷
I impressed shovel's wide tire and inside of trailer's red burden.
OMG! Those miniatures are very detailed! Even down to the operator moving a hand to his face! This is just about the BEST RC channel ever!! Lol,JK. Good video!
Why not load from the end of the pile? Seems like he picked a random spot.
Ye
Очень познавательное видео. 11 минут, экскаваторы ковшами машут...
Did you use an extra microphone to get the sound
It's an excavator loading up a truck for peats sake😀
I love the colour
I wonder how long that peat set there in that pile before it got that dry ?
Get a bigger excavator for Pete sake
Just get a 950 loader then One guy could do this job and load them faster
@@head7502 This guy thinks with his head.
Hope
Ee
Bad idea, this is a bog and anything bigger has more chance of sinking.
Seems horribly inefficient. How about a conveyor and a rubber tired loader?
ArthurDentZaphodBeeb, thats exactly what i was thinking as i watched the video.
you need all that track width rubbee tyres sink in that peat
thecouchtripper i actually like excavators, but I think it is inefficient.

Anyone else see that the cut out two rows of turf for the lorry to drive on lol
What a awesome colour
Needs bigger bucket
The tracks are just making it look bigger, if it was on standard tracks it wouldn't look as small
The word cuntages comes to mind go buy a bigger bucket for God sakes
@@tomsawyer247 R u thick or what? It's a 140.. as in a 14 tonne.. i own one MYSELF..
Why a zero turn machine? Bigger bucket and a nice sized counterweight!

I see Pete, but who's the other guy?

I wish i could post a picture here for you but can't find a way to do that 😖
Im use to seeing the brick peat,this is more powder peat,i wonder if thy compact it
yeah bord na mona compact it into briquettes
good luck to sink into the ground with these tracks
Awasome video
What is this ???
I wondered to watch this video what two bulldozer's antennas is.
Gradually I also get along my check videos like these two bulldozer's work.
Great video Will there be more videos of them loading the trucks
Brian Murphy Yes, I’ve got some videos from a normal camera on the ground
Now i know why our peat stocks never out of stock..
Milepeat?
Nice

What is peat anyway?

What do you use it for?
They burn it to produce electric
Garden soil mixtures etc etc
Bedding for cattle
Scotch whiskey
What are you doing???
this look like a game
Those tracks must be a bitch to clean lol
Viel zu kleine Schufel, für So einen größen LKW.
*THICC* excavator, i like it
Or is it "loading trucks with Pete"???
Reduced contaminates loading this way.
What type is excavator...?
I like from colombia !!!!!
Very inefficient. They should be 90 deg. Turns not 180. Also at begining of video did anyone notice he clipped the inner track with the bucket.
Why didnt you get the job? you seem to be an expert...
Where was pete
Not productive. Need a bigger excavator
Bigyanjit Huidrom So you’d get an excavator twice the size?
Yes with a bigger bucket

What's the capacity of the bucket? Tons?
Kamal about a metric tonne per bucket
@@AwesomeEarthmovers Great vid thanks. Is this Peat for household fuel or to a powerstation?
Ler9 Gert This type of peat isn’t for fuel. It will be bagged and sold at garden centres as topsoil
Would a dozer not be better than the hitachi?
這哪種的
Waw
My cheap a** boss would never have a machine feed another machine to load trucks. Sometimes he just doesn't get it.
good
Width: 100
Supar video
A auger system would be better loading d lorry
And
He needs better aim he's dumping shitall over the guys tractor😐 he'd be down with that machine sweeping it off the back of my tractor
They dont care if they truck get dirty
It’s a lorry not a tractor
If you wanted i'm sure he wouldn't spill any on the trailer.. but you wouldn't wanna be in a rush home that's the only thing
They’re driving on dirt lmao as if some guys gonna convince any of them to come sweep off dirt just to watch the truck get dirty again as they drive away
You could use a conveyer to load that out

We don't have dirt like that here in Winchester VA lol
That's because it's not dirt its peat.
