Haul Truck
Haul trucks are off-road, heavy-duty dump trucks specifically engineered for use in high-production mining and exceptionally demanding construction environments. Most are dual axle; at least two examples of tri-axles were made in the 1970s. Haul trucks are denominated by their payload capacity, by weight (variously in tons, tonnes, and kg). Description Most haul trucks have a two-axle design, but two well-known models from the 1970s, the 350T Terex 33-19 "Titan", Terex Titan and 235T WABCO 3200/B, had three axles. Haul truck capacities range from to nearly . An example on the smaller end is the Caterpillar 775 (rated at ). Quarry operations (which produce payloads that have value) are typically employ smaller trucks than mining operations (such as removing undesirable overburden, an expense). Haul trucks can generally be distinguished from standard dump trucks by: * Being far too large to travel legally on public roads * Having a dump body made of exceptionally strong st ...

Caterpillar 797
The Caterpillar 797 is a series of off-highway, ultra class, two-axle, mechanical powertrain haul trucks developed and manufactured in the United States by Caterpillar Inc. specifically for high-production mining and heavy construction applications worldwide. In production since 1998, the 797 series represents Caterpillar’s largest, highest capacity haul trucks. The current, third-generation model, the 797F, offers one of the largest haul truck payload capacities in the world, up to and has the highest payload capacity among mechanical drive haul trucks. Initial development In 1997, Caterpillar decided to begin the development of a payload capacity haul truck to meet the demand from large-scale mine operators wanting to reduce operating costs at mines using 80 to 90 short tons (73 to 82 t) per pass shovels. Engineers at Caterpillar's Mining & Construction Equipment Division in Decatur, Illinois, created a new design for the 797 using computer-aided design technology. This w ...

Haul Road
A haul road (also ''haulage road'' or haul track) is a term for roads designed for heavy or bulk transfer of materials by haul trucks in the mining industry. It is also used for freight-only roads in other contexts, for example in South Boston leading to Conley Terminal. The term is used in the mining industry and can refer to roads that are inside mining operations, such as open-cut and surface mines. It can also be used for roads between mining operations and processing locations. Type of truck also governs road design and construction - articulated or rear dump. Determinations as the effectiveness or practicality of haul roads in mining management can include: *number of lanes *road width *road slope *road subbase material *geometry of curves of road Determination of the haul truck Haul trucks are off-road, heavy-duty dump trucks specifically engineered for use in high-production mining and exceptionally demanding construction environments. Most are dual axle; at least tw ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Dumper
A dumper or dumper truck is a vehicle designed for carrying bulk material, often on building sites. A dumper has a body which tilts or opens at the back for unloading and is usually an open 4-wheeled vehicle with the load skip in front of the driver. The skip can tip to dump the load; this is where the name "dumper" comes from. They are normally diesel powered. A towing eye is fitted for secondary use as a site tractor. Dumpers with rubber tracks are used in special circumstances and provide a more even distribution of weight compared to tires. Continuous tracks allow the operator to carry heavier payload on slick, snowy, or muddy surfaces, and are popular in some countries. Rubber track dumpers offer even weight distribution for transporting heavy payloads over challenging terrains like mud or snow, popular in certain regions. Background One of the earliest British dumpers was the Muir-Hill, which was based on the Fordson tractor with 2 cubic yard bucket, driving on the fro ...

Articulated Hauler
An articulated hauler, articulated dump truck (ADT), or sometimes a dump hauler, is a very large heavy-duty type of dump truck used to transport loads over rough terrain, and occasionally on public roads. The vehicle usually has all-wheel drive and consists of two basic units: the front section, generally called the tractor, and the rear section that contains the dump body, called the hauler or trailer section. Steering is made by pivoting the front in relation to the back by hydraulic rams. This way, all wheels follow the same path, making it an excellent off-road vehicle. Manufacturers include Volvo CE, Caterpillar, Terex, John Deere/ Bell Equipment, Moxy/ Doosan, Astra and Komatsu Limited. With half of the global sales, Volvo is the market leader in the segment, and is also the prime pioneer of the vehicle, enabling its introduction to the markets in 1966. Although first envisioned as a soil and aggregate transporter (dumper), the chassis have since been used for many oth ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

General Motors Diesel Division
General Motors Diesel Division (GMDD) was a marketing and customer service unit of General Motors founded in 1938. It sought customers for GM's diesel engines, which had undergone major development during the 1930s. It was most active in association with GM's Detroit Diesel Engine Division, which produced lines of lightweight diesel engines that could be adapted to many uses including road vehicles, small boats, military equipment, construction and farm equipment, pumping, and auxiliary power generation. In 1939, Detroit Diesel Series 71 engines were installed in buses produced by Yellow Coach, who would be acquired by GM in 1943 to launch the GMC Truck and Coach Division. Uses for Detroit Diesel engines would proliferate during World War II and the postwar economic boom. The GM Cleveland Diesel Engine Division's products were sold to relatively few customers for mostly marine uses. GMDD developed a widespread international marketing, service, and parts distribution infra ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
