| One of the tools invented by man to make his work | | | | innovations, and in such a competitive world, any firm |
| simpler is the machine. A typical machine is nothing | | | | aspiring to survive and grow in the competitive |
| but a tool that performs works, which are of | | | | market space is to innovate new products, and |
| repetitive nature. In scientific parlance, work is | | | | mostly reduce the overhead costs. For example, the |
| nothing but the act of exerting a force on an object | | | | activity of laying roads over a stretch of say 500 |
| such that the object is moved across a distance. A | | | | meters can be completed by the heavy equipment |
| simple machine is a tool designed and developed to | | | | operator (or) heavy machinery operator and a couple |
| make the simple tools of pulling, lifting, and pushing | | | | of helpers in less than 12 hours maximum. If the |
| objects. Heavy machine or heavy machinery is | | | | heavy machine were not there, about 50 to 60 |
| referred to a complex machine doing a number of | | | | employees might have to be employed for digging |
| simple machine operations at the same time. The | | | | the hole, clearing the debris and all other such related |
| need for usage of heavy machinery arises from the | | | | works to complete the mission of laying a new road |
| fact that complex and complicated activities such as | | | | for the local street. Heavy equipment or heavy |
| laying of roads, tilling and sowing seeds equidistantly | | | | machinery needs the services of heavy equipment |
| spread over a vast area of agricultural fields ready | | | | operator or heavy machinery operator, who is |
| for the commencement of agricultural operations can | | | | capable of operating the machine and complete the |
| neither be performed with the help of simple | | | | multi-tasks assigned to some of the custom-built |
| machines, nor the labor force is capable of doing the | | | | heavy equipment. The market for heavy equipment |
| complex and heavy activities at a relatively faster | | | | is vibrant with lots of competition among the heavy |
| pace. Heavy machinery, or heavy equipment, meets | | | | machinery traders to offer heavy equipment sales or |
| the requirement of completing complex jobs at a | | | | heavy machinery sales either as new products, or |
| relatively quicker pace of time, and in the bargain | | | | used heavy equipment or second-hand equipment, in |
| saving considerable amount of overheads. Have you | | | | the market to prospective customers. Among the |
| ever watched a giant-sized machine being used at | | | | common types of heavy machinery used is the |
| the roadside to lay roads? or a heavy machine being | | | | construction heavy equipment such as cement |
| put to use to create a gravel and sand mixture to | | | | preparation rollers, equipment for laying of roads and |
| build roads? These and similar types of equipment are | | | | such other related aspects. Now, with the advanced |
| jointly referred to heavy equipment required to carry | | | | technologies, complex heavy equipment that can |
| out heavy jobs of specific nature. The need for | | | | meet the specific requirements are simulated and |
| usage of heavy equipment machinery arises from the | | | | designed using the relevant software in computer |
| fact that global competition among the different | | | | and based on the custom-specifications, the design is |
| types of activities is on the rise due to technological | | | | converted into the original equipment. |
