Relocating On Site 5 Liebherr 974 & Caterpillar 385C Excavators - Sotiriadis/Labrianidis Mining 4K

🚛 Massive Excavator Relocation Operation Inside a Giant Mine – 5 Heavy Machines on the Move

In today’s video, we’re witnessing an incredible on-site transport operation involving the relocation of five massive hydraulic excavators across one of the largest mining areas in the region. The scale of this mine is so immense that the machines had to be moved over a distance of 35 kilometers, all within the mine boundaries, from one working zone to another.

These machines include Liebherr 974, Caterpillar 375, and Caterpillar 385C—all giants in the earthmoving industry. The entire transport was carried out by MAN TGA 540 trucks equipped with heavy-duty hydraulic trailers, expertly handled by a highly organized and professional crew.

🏗️ Machines Relocated: Heavy-Duty Excavators

Here’s a closer look at the key excavators featured in today’s move:
🔹 Liebherr R 974 Litronic
• Operating Weight: ~80,000 kg (176,000 lbs)
• Engine Power: ~620 hp
• Bucket Capacity: 4.5 – 5.5 m³
• Role: Heavy excavation, overburden removal, large-scale digging

🔹 Caterpillar 375
• Operating Weight: ~85,000 kg (187,000 lbs)
• Engine Power: ~391 kW (525 hp)
• Bucket Capacity: Up to 4.6 m³
• Use: Mass excavation, trenching, truck loading

🔹 Caterpillar 385C
• Operating Weight: ~85,000 kg
• Engine Power: 523 hp
• Bucket Capacity: 4.6 m³
• Specialty: Fast loading cycles, heavy overburden work

Each of these machines was disassembled where necessary, carefully loaded onto specialized lowboy hydraulic trailers, and transported to their new location inside the mine.

🚚 Transport Vehicle: MAN TGA 41.540 + Hydraulic Trailer

For such heavy machinery, the project relied on the MAN TGA 41.540, a powerhouse truck model built for extreme loads and industrial transportation:
• Engine Power: 540 hp
• Axles: 8x4 setup for better traction and load distribution
• Trailer: Multi-axle Goldhofer hydraulic trailer
• Features: Hydraulic ramp, adjustable height, load-balancing systems

This combination allowed for safe and stable movement of oversized machines over long in-mine distances and across varying terrain conditions.

🎯 Coordination, Teamwork & Precision

What made this transport a success wasn’t just the machines—it was the people behind the project. From loading to unloading, every stage was managed with:
• Excellent communication between drivers and operators
• Precise trailer positioning and machine securing
• On-time delivery and rapid deployment of machines

The professional logistics team ensured the excavators were ready for action as soon as they arrived at their new mining zones.

Transporting five massive excavators across a 35 km distance within a mine is no small feat. It requires expert coordination, reliable transport vehicles, and a highly skilled team. Today’s video gives you a rare look at what happens behind the scenes in a large-scale mining operation, where every move counts and every machine must be in the right place—on time.
