The skill of the machine operator can not be overlooked, I was thinking if only he had a machine built specifically for the job, I get the impression the machine is a general purpose machine that's been adapted.

Quicker and easier to make money this way 3 years ago I suppose. Not anymore surely considering the price of secondhand cars. That French steel just does not rust either. Surprisingly durable car.
I mean if they don't even try to salvage parts, that kinda sucks indeed, if they put it on a scrap yard and nobody came to buy the parts, i mean can you blame them, it's usually not worth it to send old 2nd hand parts across the world unless they are really rare and no longer produced, but these headlights you can still buy on the aftermarket
@@MrTurbo_ I'd love to say my opinion from a 3rd world country, what happens is our currency is so weak, taxes are so high, the aftermarket new parts are more expensive than the imported scrap parts like in the video, scrap cars are almost tax free, so you get a decent OEM parts with cheaper prices, we benefit from almost everything, you definitely can't buy a new aftermarket full dashboard or even ac vents for an old car like this.

Basic car component knowledge is needed. You just need to know all the different systems a car has, engine and transmission, suspension, frame, ABS pump, AC system, cooling system etc. All in all it doesn't take huge amount of knowledge of cars.
Most machines I've seen either very precise or very strong, but not both. Seeing an exception to this is pretty cool. Beautiful work on the part of the operator too-he didn't just operate this monster-he _became_ it.
@@TheyForcedMyHandLE When I say "precise", I mean unreasonably precise, like how a CNC machine can get tolerances of thousandths of an inch on parts that might be a few feet wide at their biggest. It's the range of orders of magnitude that counts. When I say "strong" I mean something which can exhibit continuous and brutish amounts of force, like a hydraulic press or those massive "shred anything" machines.
I used this machine to do an engine swap. On the plus side, super fast, fastest swap we've ever done by more than 4 hours. On the down side, we had some issues with the wiring harness.
I used to live a few hundred feet from a wrecking yard. I would walk my very young son there to watch the employees tearing apart old cars. He loved every second of it.

I understand crushing the metal is part of the process, but you would think that they would at least remove some parts, like the windshield and windows, seats, headlights etc to maybe sell them as replacement parts. idk if that's a logistical nightmare, but it doesn't seem efficient.
@@LorikQuinn there’s a high tech place in Europe that does that. Basically just the shell is left over for recycling while the other parts are inventoried and sold to repair shops. Usually depends on how new the vehicle is too.

@@billgriffiths1685 How? Like the operator. Destroying you systematically with surgical precision only to be crushed and thrown away. Why? I still don't know the answer to that one. It was a long time ago.

being a car mechanic and knowing how bad some of these things come off if you want them in one piece - its amazing to see how lightfooted the excavator takes everything like its a paper towel.
It's a little bit sad. I mean there are a lot of things that could have been used as the body parts like front lights, windshield, side glass, some external body parts etc. From the other side - awesome work!
Do you know how difficult it is to be a parts dealer and deal with that constant stream of morons looking for crap? And the space you need just for storage of those vehicles. More cost effective to scrap and melt the metal down
This video is pure bullshit, when you pretend to "recycle" you never throw away a lot of parts that was on that car, and mixed metal and plastic yeah great for recycling
Just because there are lots of Clios doesn't mean that this and other breakers don't give a shit about older car parts and relentlessly scrap them - it's easier to process scrap than sell parts, even though it makes more money. This video might show a common Clio, but this is happen to every car that goes there - even rarer ones.
Took them on holidays and to family get togethers etc. We used one of ours as one of our wedding cars and one of our other cars our daughter was born in station wagon area now both are scrap metal.
@Michael @6sheds is right...for now, this IS the fastest & best way to separate & sort out all the parts for scrap & recycle. If it was man power, FORGET IT! close up shop!...if it's by mauling the entire thing,...guess who's gonna go through all that mess sorting it all out again?🙎🏻♂️ it'll take days maybe weeks just to do all that. Let's enjoy this fancy claw on the excavator for now till we have someone from the University of Recycled Scrap come up with a better idea. Unless you have one to pitch?
I was thinking the same thing. How much fuel burned while removing a wiring harness. That thing is not fuel efficient I am sure. Was cool for the first 2 mins than Im like crush the friggin car!!
I love how the car just crumbles almost as if it's made out of a thin film of plastic that's has hardened over and disintegrates with the slightest touch upon it, making you forget that this car is made out of metal.
Amazing to watch, everyone knows how heavy an engine is, plus the fact of all the hoses and clamps and nuts and bolts and more resistance, done with ease. It seemed the lower clamps with the blades would have done more damage than just holding the car down.

Same here, 20+ years as a mechanic, the vid of a new Ferrari getting crushed was my favourite when everyone else was having a cry about it being squished lol.
yeah that put some weird thoughts in my head... imagine being torn apart by a machine thats looking for your liver testicles and spinal chord, it just rips into you and pulls what it wants out while youre alive!
When I see this, it reminds me of the ingenuity of human beings. The big and heavy machinery/tools we've been able to make for ourselves. Pretty cool stuff!
This operator is so good that I'm surprised there's not a separate pile for wiper blades.
