Technology has bought all of us to a level where even cars are not dependent on drivers; tech has come to a level where the difference between the imaginations and reality has become almost negligible. Imagine how many labors would have been required on a construction site (if those heavy giant machines are not there). There are so many other areas in life, which are now dependent on technology and heavy machinery research and development sector is working day and night to reduce the human intervention to minimum.  

To start the discussion, how many of us know that “Lamborghini” was a tractor maker? Heavy machinery brings us to a discussion of tractors, lifters and movers, heavy loads which were impossible to move previously or which require 100 labors are now moved effortlessly with the help of giant machinery. Front end loader is an enhanced version of a tractor, the only different is that the front end loader is a tractor with front mounted square wide bucket connected at the front (to life the heavy objects). For those who are still misunderstanding it with the excavator, front end loader can be defined as a large square tray attached with the wheels with the help of the booms (metal arms with hydraulics). Although there are other uses too of a front end loader but, actually this giant invention is used to scoop the material off the ground without moving things abnormally here and there. Just to scoop tons of sand and other construction material on the construction site loader plays a role of 200 labors.

To further elaborate the use of the loader is to put the humongous quantity of garbage off the ground and put it on the truck waiting to carry the same to the junkyard. Usually construction sites are required of such loaders for the movement of material from one place to another. Till now the biggest loader is LeTourneau L-2350 with a diesel engine system same as a locomotives, hard rubber tyres with independent electric motor attached, which can handle each tyre separately and allows backward and front movement of the heavy giant easier, the steering portion is designed in such a unique way which can allow the operator to move the loader in an arc position after scooping the material off the ground. Front end loaders allows the selection from two different options cut size and normal giant size, cut size is capable of handling moderate assignments, low capacity loads due to moderate in size makes it adjustable in narrow spaces with heavy bulk. Proper white card training SA and practice are required in order to steer and operate the front end loader, since the steering area contains other controllers in order to tackle that shovel attached at the front of the tractor with the boom.
