The Jumbo Jubilee is one of the heavy-duty special ships of Jumbo Maritime and is characterized by its ability to transport particularly heavy and long equipment. It is equipped with two mast cranes, each with a carrying capacity of 900 tons, and can therefore perform demanding tasks in the heavy and energy industry. Thanks to its special design, the Jumbo Jubilee has already carried out numerous major projects, including the transport of stackers, reclaimers and shiploaders. In the manufacturing industry, the manufacture of huge steel components, such as the world's largest steel ring, is an extraordinary technical challenge. With a diameter of up to 12 meters and a weight of more than 100 tons, this ring was made in the smithing process in the warm state, using a powerful hydraulic press. The process begins with the melting of the steel. Then it is poured into a mold and smithed precisely under extremely high pressure. After smithing, the workpiece is cooled, mechanically processed and subjected to the completion of a quality test. The Jumbo Jubilee, the FANUC M2000-IA, is currently the world's strongest industrial robot, equipped with a special long-arm construction. It acts like a real giant and uses the intelligent 3D image processing system FANUC i-AirVision to automatically localize trailers and products. The robot grabs large car modules such as seats or dashboards from the truck, puts them on a conveyor belt, then picks up the empty pallets and stacks them back in the truck, so that the cycle repeats itself seamlessly. In the energy industry, the transport of heavy equipment such as transformers is an enormous challenge. To solve this problem, engineers installed a special system of steel carriers and support devices to transport two transformers with a weight of 220 tons from Thessaloniki to AHS Cardias. The steel carriers distributed the weight evenly, while the support devices secured the transformers during the entire journey. The installed transport vehicle not only had to be extremely burdensome, but also flexible enough to move on special routes. Here we see the Quickmaster 120 Plus from Elcon Polska, a modern, mobile concrete plant in which up to 200 different recipes can be stored. The system works in a fully automated process, from the precise weighting of 5 to 6 tons of material, including four additives, cement, fly ash and chemicals, on a multi-purpose scale, to the transport on a conveyor belt directly into the mixer, all monitored via an operating field. In the field of airport firefighting, reaching and extinguishing fires on aircraft is a major challenge. The Oshkosh Snozzle was developed as an advanced solution to safely reach and extinguish heavily accessible areas on the aircraft. With a boom of 50 or 65 feet, the system allows the extinguishing agent to be sprayed directly through the outer skin into the interior of the aircraft without entering it. The 280 degree rotatability and remote control increase efficiency and safety when extinguishing. It is surprising that in the Fis-Ladis ski area, with an area of 214 kilometers, the transformation of slopes into perfect ski slopes takes place at night, controlled by gigantic piste pulley machines. This top class of piste vehicles has an impressive track chassis with an additional axle that increases the ground grip on every terrain. The machine works like an artist. A snow shovel glides in front, which is over 40 cm wider than that of the previous generation. Uneven snow hills. In the back, the Friese Alpine Flex system crushes and compacts the snow cover to a perfect surface. In the pouring and automotive industry, the cleaning of components after processing is a highly precise process, which, however, takes place in an extremely rough environment full of dust and chemicals.

Spektr-RG is constructed according to the construction box principle and equipped with a highly developed control and stabilization system. It enables the observation of almost the entire sky in the X-ray wavelength range. The Antonov An-225 Mriya is a symbol for technological strength and air transport capability. With a length of 84 meters and a span of 88.4 meters, it is the largest aircraft in the world. Equipped with six jet engines, the An-225 can transport a maximum of 250,000 kilograms of cargo. This corresponds to the weight of about 50 cars. This aircraft is not only used militarily, but also in humanitarian missions, e.g. in the transport of medical equipment during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Crawler Transporter No. 2 is one of two gigantic vehicles used by NASA to transport carrier systems from the Vehicle Assembly Building to the launch platforms in the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Built in 1965 by the Marion Power Shovel Company, each vehicle is about 40 meters long, about 35 meters wide and adjustable in height between 6 and 8 meters. The weight is around 3,000 tons. This corresponds to the weight of about 15 Statues of Liberty. Did you know that every winter a team of silent heroes works hard under the moonlight to make slopes as smooth as silk? And this is where the PRINOT Leitwolf comes into play, the strongest slope plow in the world. Like a gigantic robot, the Leitwolf works with a 12-step snow shovel, which is almost 6 meters wide to level large snow masses. Then the rear milling machine with a record working width of 4.5 meters ensures the breaking up and mixing of the snow, so that an even layer is created. In mining, performance and flexibility are crucial for success. MEZZO LOCOTRACK, ELTE 120 and ELTE 330. There are two optimal solutions for these requirements.
