Third title in David Wylie’s ‘Earthmovers in…’ series of books now available to purchase
AS a correspondent for Earthmovers magazine, David Wylie has built upon his ‘Earthmovers in…’ series of books to bring even more mining and quarrying-related site visits to life with his new title, Earthmovers in Europe & Australia. Travelling across Europe and half-way around the world, he captures some of the biggest, and arguably the best, earthmoving equipment in action.
Earthmovers in Europe & Australia brings together 23 of David’s reports that record company profiles, mining machines, and cutting-edge payload technology in action. The book contains new insights from several machine designers, along with the views of highly skilled and experienced operators and managers who share their wealth of experience operating these mining machines.
The book features some of the largest hydraulic earthmovers in the world, such as the massive Komatsu PC7000-11 excavator, 930E haul truck, and the first new 115-tonne D475A-8 dozer, along with the evolution of Demag’s H485 to Komatsu’s PC8000. The history of the Terex TR100 rigid hauler as well as Caterpillar’s 992K loader and Cat 637K scraper, and Liebherr’s R9800 and R9600 excavators are also covered in detail.
Containing more than 72,000 words and over 477 high-quality photographs, more than 70 of which are presented on double pages, this stunning and detailed third book in the series will be of interest to enthusiasts, owners, operators, and site managers worldwide. A limited-edition with only 300 copies for sale, Earthmovers in Europe & Australia is available to purchase directly from David Wylie for £37.00 + p&p.
