Brilliant....

Their riggers perform about as well as their military. Looks like the left sling broke, but why were they even trying to lift it from one end?

Does anyone recognize the machine?

The video on the rigging does not come up now. The video when I click on it is about the war.

It works just fine for me, go to the 5:15 mark as stated in first post.

It’s a Reddit link of content copied from TikTok, but here’s a link that doesn’t involve all the war propaganda, and isn’t so fuzzy. Based on the Expowestrans uniforms it does seem likely it’s Russian.

I don't recognize the brand but it's a bridge type machining center. They drop the columns "Y" axis and spindle.

I did, but I am not getting anything to do with rigging.

I've seen the video now through the link jccaclimber posted.

That’s because it starts at 5:26 or 5:27, not at 5:15. I had the advantage of already knowing the video when I fast scrolled through it.

if that "metalworking center" goes for $300,000 now I want in on it. They go for about 50k .... I could buy lunch on profits off that one !

HIllyer built them in the US, Mazak built a few, really common in china and I've seen them in korea, don't know about japan. I have no idea why the crappier c-frame style is so universal in the US ...



But $300,000 the guy is blowing smoke or he's an idiot, the one behind her looks bigger and it's not even a hundred grand. The small ones are maybe 30% less than a Haas of similar size ?

very intresting

 

[gustafson]

They are idjits
Bar through a hole with nothing to keep the sling from sliding off the end.
Wrong pickup point
wrong setup

end of the sling didnt fit through the hole, so grab this pipe

not international news.........

Russian riggers are good enough to steal over 4 million dollars worth of new farm equipment from one! John Deere dealer in Ukraine. John Deere turned off the computer controlled equipment remotely once they knew about it.
Ukraine's tax agency has officially declared any russian military equipment confiscated by citizens is considered a gift and need not be reported for taxes.

Ukrainian Tractors Versus Russian Armor

Amateur videos of Russian tanks and other armored vehicles being towed across fields and villages by Ukrainian tractors regularly go viral on social media. The military vehicles are usually abandoned, broken down, or out of fuel.

It looks like they were trying to stand it up off a pallet. Notice the other wood frame it would land on if they had stood it up and not dropped it....

 

[Rob F.]

Trying to stand it up can also explain why they used the round bar, the bar would turn in the hole as the part was raised where a strap in the hole might get cut.
If the strap truly was a light weight strap it was not their intention to put the entire weight of the part on the strap. I hope they have learned to not use rigging that cant handle the entire load.
It did not break the strap until all the weight was swinging on that strap, supporting the light weight sling theory.
Here is a link to some endless slings/colors:
