Remember this? https://xbroom.com/products/cold-in-place-recycle-train/
Although there weren't many pics of this trailer on auction sites, that page does list the name of all the smaller parts and pieces it utilizes to create this mobile asphalt recycling machine/contraption/factory on wheels.
Here's all the parts and smaller machines it uses:
I managed to find blueprints of the train's/trailer's "heart": the Caterpillar C9 – 300 KW rated generator.
From a .pdf specs, dimensions sheet, or a brochure; the blueprints that show the object's exact dimensions will make it much eaier for me to transform this thing into a 3D model. But the blueprints for the other things - so far are proving to be tedious because they yield no search results in Google.
So if you can help link to the missing parts' blueprints, please do. Thanks to this new discovery, I feel much more relaxed and this close to transforming this thing into a 3D model much easier.
Thanks to the control panel of that Cat C9 – 300 KW rated generator, I'm starting to better understand how this thing is created from scratch.
