Re: Hillhead 2012 - Mining Machinery News

Re: Liebherr 9800 at peabody coal in australia

There is another 9800 into Fortescue for EDI.

They also have 4 R9400 and there are 2 in the Hunter Valley, one of them is at Liddells. All backhoes to my knowledge.

Re: Classic Concrete Mixers

RMC used to make their own barrels, mark 52 and 53.

More modern producers of agitators and mixer barrels are baryval (Spanish), Stetter (German), and L & T (Italian) along with the aforementioned Hymix and Liebherr. There are also several asian and chinese.
