Caterpillar 992C & Liebherr 964 Loading Coal at Massive Mine – One-Pass Loading Power

⛏️ Today’s Location: Coal Deposit Zone at a Massive Open-Pit Mine
In today’s video, we’re deep inside a huge coal mine, right at the coal deposit area, where the real loading action happens. This is where mega machines meet raw power and efficiency — and where generations of experience are put to work.

We’re watching a Caterpillar 992C wheel loader equipped with a custom high-volume coal bucket, loading 4-axle trucks in just a single pass — a perfect example of optimized productivity. Right beside it, a Liebherr 964 excavator is also loading coal, showing that multiple high-capacity machines work simultaneously to maintain nonstop flow.

All equipment belongs to the Melidis family, a name with over 50 years of tradition and excellence in operating and maintaining heavy machinery across Greece.
