I worked for this company in that mine, and when you were working next to one of these monsters, and he had his entire blade full, coming at you it was scary, and awesome at the same time. 1100 HP, twin turbo, twin fuel pumps, same engine that was in the Komatsu 785 haul truck.

Is anyone still alive after 10 years?

CAT kids. Just look at their latest creation the new D7E, IT is a LOW SPROCKET design!!! If you look at the D11s the sprocket tooth loading is all on MAYBE 5 or 6 teeth.The original D10 was bad enough but then they upgraded the tracks for the 11s buy making them longer BEHIND the sprocket which took even more track AWAY from the sprocket .ALL other dozers have 180°of track to contact the sprocket, which can be up to 20 plus teeth. The pin & bushing loading is BRUTAL on a high sprocket dozer

Thought I'd seen it all in the D11 Cat but this is in a class of its own, unbelievable.

excellent vid, keep up the good work, great to see these rare machines working!

Mr jpsj. It's a fire suppression tank. It's connected to lines that run into the engine bay etc to extinguish fires of the button is hit. I work for a company as a boilermaker and fit these systems to a lot of caterpillar machines. This is mine spec stuff.

Sometime in the late 80s they brought the first 575 over to America. My grandfather was featured in the magazine as first to operate the dozer. He said they got it to the site piece by piece on a train and then assembled it on site! I wished my grandmother could find the magazine.

The scene at 1:46 is pretty mind boggling.Komatsu first had their own 1,000hp 264,000lb D555A bulldozer at Conexpo 81 in Houston.BennetShovel has a long 10 minute video of one pushing dirt up hill to.

amazing both 575s r going at the same time almost everytime i went up to service the a40s ther was a 575 in the workshop

What was amazing was the 575a-3 that could push 30% more than these a-2's. You can tell them apart as the a-3 does not have a ripper, just a huge counter weight.

There is absolutely no competition’ Komatsu D575 -A is a unbelievable Dozer,, Blade load 90 cubic yards or 24.3 tons of material on every pass , it will rip anything out the ground , there is nothing that will stop this Super Dozer , 3 Cat D-11-Rs couldn’t even compare to what this monster can move , ❤️👍

@TheHank58 What's a wheel barrel?

I wonder if a d11 could do two passes in the time it takes this machine to complete one pass. I believe that a d11 would be more efficient per ton of material moved.

I’ve seen this exact dozer at Brooklyn quarry nz the fire extinguisher is bigger then me

Bravo

@zrparker1981 I totally agree with you. A D-11T will not out push a D575 push for push. The D-11 will how ever push more dirt while the Komatsu is in the shop for 3 months waiting on some five dollar part that has to be made to order. There is a reason why Black Thunder Mine has over 60 D-11's and 0 575's. They had one at one time (Im sure some Komatsu rep was doing some man touching to get it there) and they couldn't get rid of it fast enough.

I dont know how old you are or if you remember the old Allis Chambers dozers fom the 70's and 80's but they built one back then that was almost as big as this 575,,man it was a giant for its day and way bigger than the old D9 of the era,,seems like they were calle a HD41 I think but not sure.

To give you an idea of how colossal this monster is. Its about equal in weight and Horsepower to *THREE* D9G's!!!!!!

bet this is a fun job

@784plb The D10s & D11s are NOT,repeat NOT,repeat NOT,the same. The original D10s had a shorter track frame than the new replacement D11s. The track frame on an 11 is longer after the sprocket which takes track chain AWAY from the sprocket ie LESS tooth contact with the chain.

@575kiwi i didnt know we had these beasts in nz :o

liebherr pr 776 the king

A very strong machine but it was priced high, maintenance cost is unbelievable and ended up being parked out most places because of maintenance cost. You could get two Cat D11s for the price of one 575 and on a long push one D11 can move almost as much material in a 11 1/2 hr shift as the 575. The cat is that much faster and also cheaper to operate. But when the 575 was running it was a sight to behold.

Yes far more efficient models out now. One of these 2 dozers is in a heavy machine museum in Cambridge New Zealand. Was gifted to the owner as they couldn’t find anyone to purchase the old gas guzzlers. New owner only had to sort the heavy haul bill to get it to the museum. I have a pic of my boy standing on the top plate. Can hardly make him out up there.

komatsu super tangguh.

@575kiwi yea because cat is the best at everything it makes

@harryscrotum007 yeah but where does the final drive get its power from.. through the engine to the torque divider then through the transmission out to your final drives.. its obvious the 575 can push more becauses in general its a all round bigger dozer.. but the raised sprocket is still a better design then standard... you have alot more stress on sprocket when thier not raised, its obvious

@TheJamesloy Looks are important in the industrial world.

@frostexcavating well said.

These are 2 good adversaries for chuck norris...

What is the red tank on the side?

im pretty sure the single shank ripper on one of those will rip rock 2 meters deep

@zrparker1981 it all depends on what your pushing and the style of blade that is being used on the machine... ucan have blades that spread, that carry all sorts different sizes for different material.

@duane2072 he might have newer corner shoes on...that tends to make the blade bite in more....or he could be in harder material. It looks like a dogs breakfast of rock & soil there, but I guess you have to take the video as you see it. Hard to say, but they look to working in a mixed matrix there.

My experience is as an operator, and from touring different operations around the world. Like I said, I feel the numbers would be a whole lot different if you really looked.

Cat has to step up to the plate and build a 1350 hp. with better fuel economy and more push pull .If they want to stay ahead of the rest.Komat has passed them by with their machines.

I'd like to know where you got the figure of "85% of the production machines in pits are flat tracks". I've never found that number to be anywhere near the truth. In fact, I would say it's close to 70% high track.

I wish there were some kind of mine turned amusement part where normal people with some training could rent one of these for 5 minutes and have a go at moving soil.

If an Alien where to watch this, it would probably find it a very peculiar hobby, pushing some dirt in slow motion speed.

@21gibbs, 575s arnt much bigger then d11s, and have a bad disign, even though they cant use high track because cat copy wrote it. the final drives take more stress because thier so big and get more surface area from the tracks having to go basically right around and the duo cones get ran into the ground from being so exposed to the dirt, also 575s dont even have removable belly guards, you have smalled space to stick hands in under, other wise for big jobs you have to remove the enitre cab..
