I was fortunate enough to drive a Broyt x42tf in the mid 1990's. They are an awsome machine. When driven correctly, a Broyt will never push back when digging, no matter what it encounters, this cannot be said for an conventional face shovel from any other manufacturer. A 45 tonne Broyt will have the same digging force as a conventional machine nearly twice its weight. I went to a Broyt from a 974 Leibher face shovel, the Broyt would load a dumper in half the number of passes. The driver in this video needs a lesson in cleaning up and also needs to get his tracks right up to the stone he wants to load, starting with his bucket facing almost straight down. The second x42 i had also had a small pair of arms behind the bucket which were used to lift a 6 tonne steel ball for breaking over sized rock. Nothing digs like a Broyt !!!!!!!!!!!!!
when ever I run my dig bucket backwards it always reminds me of just how much power it takes to fill a bucket. This odd looking thing is brilliant and clearly very efficient. Most impressed.
Very unique design. I’ve never seen one before. It does the job of a wheel loader without all the maneuvering and puts all the strain on the hydraulics instead of a complete drivetrain.
For the size of machine and engine power, they have a very high output. Broyt pioneered the design years ago and I think that they pretty much got it sorted ! Koehring built a similar thing called a Skooper, which wasn’t a success ! If you study the kinematics, you will see that it doesn’t waste much effort in loading, unlike a wheeled loader, which spends much of its time manoeuvring . This is quite an old machine and still working in granite - it must be tough !
I find this machine very cool , however I run a cat 990 wheel loader in a limestone//dyke quarry in canada and I would have had that truck loaded in half the time at least
I'm assuming that machine is a getting on in years a bit now ? there have been no Broyt machines made since 2008 but for its age it is very quick and smooth . It looks like its maybe loading some broken oversize material as opposed to being at the quarry face where it would get a better bucket load each time than it is achieving but that is very impressive machine good video
The one that ECC Quarries had ran on 2 steel spikey wheels and the other axle was lorry wheels, which didn't drive and it had to drag or push its self around, for long distances the bucket went in the back of a dumptruck and it then lifted the spikey wheels of the ground and was towed where it needed to go. i believe it was powered by a cat 977 engine.
Brøyt was the product name for excavators from Brødrene Søyland (Brothers Søyland), Bryne, Norway. They were one of the first making successful fully hydraulic excavators. They had a big international market for their machines when they were at the peak, but then bigger international companies took over the market despite having inferior machines. Brødrene Søyland was just a too small company to take on the competition.
Clever geometry and the retracting action before turning helps reduce the torque to spin the machine. I can only imagine what modern state of the art design to come up with. A conventional shovel bucket would go a long way assuming rock would fit thru it.
This exactly what should’ve been built years ago, takes everything from loaders and rolls it up into one, that extending boom swivel is amazing, how much does that machine weigh???? Nice 👍 thanksBigAlCalifornia.
We had a wheeled one on ECC quarries I believe it had the same engine as my 977k traxcavator, I guess the truck is the Centaur or maybe that was an earlier model.
I believe the bucket is designed with shallow sides for increased strength when excavating rock. A bucket with taller sides would of course hold more volume of material, but would probably be less rigid & less able to prevent stress damage to the bucket, when excavating hard material.
We had one in the cat scrapyard for its 6cylinder 3306. Fascinating thing, had no wheels driving at all, duely truck tyres one end with chain plates and the other end of the frame was compactor wheels?
@@broyttube Cut up for the 3306 cat engine as far as I know. It was John Moore’s scrap yard in Staffordshire U.K. It did secondhand parts. I worked there from 1988 to 1991.
The dumptruck is an Aveling-Barford off-highway dumper used for construction such as highway construction. This make, Aveling-Barford carries the surnames of these construction equipment manufacturers: Aveling and Barford.
@@leopic501 you're definitely right but I think if it had some bigger cheeks on the bucket and someone that could fill the bucket it would be much faster

All Broyt machines, the best know were the wheeld machines, were the best tunneling shovels. No wheel loader has the same production in narrow space as a tunnel !plus, the foiating boom hyd circuit, decrease the fuel consume. But isn't a CAT !CAT , the best.. arrived 30 years after wuth his : SMART BOOM, but Broyt and Aclerman also, Mount the foat circuit from 60 years..3 pumps Rexroth circuit , with closed rotation circuit..See, after so much woring hours, in hard rock stones, if there is a cracking on the boom ????This is a very strong machine, not the actually, all electronics circuits. And every time blocked for stupids electric problems
I believe this design is optimal for digging into hard rock. It gives the cutting edge much greater power and penetration. Even the cutting edge is a v-shape so that all the power is focused in a small area.
@@AwesomeEarthmovers I guess so, I'm used to seeing underground hard rock loaders (Sandvik LH621) etc, they do have a long lip, but the cheeks are pretty much flat along top edge with the bucket rolled back.
Doesn't look like it has enough reach to get a full bucket. And also doesn't seem to have enough power to get a full bucket(4:43), i think the more common designs are a lot more efficient.
Insidious589 this machine have some issues with the pump control system.. Thats why the engine runs hard.. There is also the most efficient loading machine ever made.. She is 65 ton and can load 1000 ton pr hour.. Average.. But that is with a healthy hydraulic system and filled buckets.. One have to be close to the material.. Like every frontshovel..
Hm.. These are no longer in production.. Althoug Amv, a norvegian company making equipment for tunneling, have started up produktion of the same machine now.. But Brøyt didn't name this digger 1000 for no reason.. 1000 is tonn pr hour.. In proper blasts, of course.. And that is tested many times..
That's a First, I've never seen anything like it before, not sure if it's Operater or Machine, but your only getting a half a bucket at a time, I use to run Cat's either, track or Rubber Tire, Man if you didn't have a full load, you'd hear about it, I mean, Bucket
The Broyt was the best hyd shovel, specialized in tunnels machines..Very very strong machinesBut too expensive in confront to the std excavators . So, at the finish, too qualitty but high prices, was closedTpicol of all shit globalization
That’s a different kind of what would you call it? Bucket loader? Also trying to count how many bucket to fill a truck. Sounds a little underpowered but some heavy loads, great video, thanks.👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
A little automation on those bucket cylinders would go a long way,the geometry of the boom and the arm make it too hard to keep the bucket at the proper angle,needs a bucket leveling system
Tell me how would that speed up the process it's just a operator that isent experineced whit brøyts face shovel concept the shovel that is on is more effective that a clamshell cuz of the fast tipp button on the sticks that drops the hydraulic on the bucket cylinders and swings super fast back a clamshell would have to close the bucket again and so on slows down the process
If they had more reach they would been a better success. The whee loader is around same speed loading but more moving parts. These set stationary and used less moving parts to load. Just not a great reach so you was constantly chasing that full bucket out of your reach. 7-8 more feet woulda help a mile.
Garrett Campbell They have only started into a blast in this video. The Broyt performs optimally once it gets in a bit further. The driver also told me that nothing else leaves the quarry floor as level as the Broyt does because of it’s sheer power and the angled bucket edge.
It was proven to be the most effective loader of it's size. Small company loacted in Norway, too expencive to produce compared to the standard front shovels
Actually proven to be the most productive loader of it's size, cost/ton/hour, back in the day. It was a small company behind it, located in the most expencive country, Norway, which made the purchase cost of the machine type quite high compared to the other front loader type produced by much larger manufacturers in lower cost countries. The Broyt went out of production in 2005.
This machine was way ahead of it's competitors at the time, but after some years, they got passed by others who had quantum production. Kinda like Henry Ford vs Everyone else. So of course these machines were more expensive and became more expensive, but at the beginning it wasn't that expensive. The company wasn't that small, and no, they didn't went out of production i 2005. It actually ended in 1980, but in 1981 Åkermans purchased the company got new capital. At that time the production was changed too special machines, but at the end of the 80's the production once again ended, and in 91, VME Group bought the company, before they in 95 changed their name to Volvo CE. In 99, they sold Brøyt to Sandvik Tamrock, which marked the end of the production in Norway, and moved it to Finland. But the model shown in the video here, were still produced in Finland, until 2008, and that's the last and final chapter for Brøyt, or Brødrene Søyland. Their old factory are now and industrial park, where a company in the same segment as Brøyt is located, among other companies. The site is called Ree Næringspark. You can read about it in at wikipedia.

I think blokes are under estimating the weight and how hard it is to push into that rock
I agree.
