Do you mind explaining what heavy duty means and what type of equipment they were using? I’m not doubting you I just haven’t found anything on this

I mean, designed and built specifically for the task. Auschwitz-Birkenau was a modular, multi-function complex of camps. They had some POWs, some political prisoners, some war industries slave labor and a large extermination facility.

They cracked the killing problem with the gas chambers. They built up their capacity for cremations. I think the original pair could handle a combined 750 or so per day. They knew that wouldn't be enough, so they scaled up another pair to roughly double that (for a combined tripling) and the 4 large facilities combined could handle about 2200 per day, or thereabouts. (ETA: In fact, in looking at some other references, my memory may be halving the capacity - maybe the bigger ones could handle 1500 each, twice the smaller ones - for a combined total of the 4 being about 4500 per day at max capacity - but they were only in operation the last 2 years of Nazi Germany. There was a provisional facility operating early on, but it was swamped.)

I mean, these aren't state secrets pulled from the Soviet archives in the 90s. There were living participants (Jewish prisoners, German soldiers and civilians) who testified about all of this in the 40s. We have custody of the complex. We have the Nazi records of the design and construction. The Holocaust isn't a conspiracy - it's a historical fact.
