50 meters long, 6.5 meters wide and 4.5 meters high - a 130-ton giant, consisting of a drive station for conveyor belts and transport vehicles, has to be brought to the site 13 kilometers away. the route: an obstacle course! power lines lead to a forced stop. tight curves and steep descents require filigree work. a real tough job for heavy haulage professional randolf peters.
schleenhain in saxony, around 40 kilometers south of leipzig. here, lignite is mined in open-cast mining on a large scale. if a digging point is exhausted, the heavy equipment must be relocated to the next excavation site. since the drive station with its enormous dimensions does not simply fit on a normal low-loader, randolf peters relies on two spmt (self propelled modular transporter), so-called self-propelled vehicles, which are driven by radio remote control for the transport.
this havy transport brings with it some challenges, even for the haulage professional: loading the drive station with truck-mounted cranes, maneuvering the self-propelled, blocking the transport route, avoiding obstacles and unloading the drive station at the new location - strong nerves and precise work are required.
