The widespread haul truck is equipped with a 38 tonne tandem axle. The strength of this tandem axle is improved by BAS Mining Trucks. The axles are placed further apart. This way, more space is created to mount bigger and wider tires. This brings more stability during driving and unloading on the one hand. On the other hand this results in more carrying capacity, resulting in 8x4 tipper trucks with a capacity of 24 m3 and a net payload of 45 tonnes. The new widespread haul trucks have a top speed of 50 km/h and can operate on a gradeability up to 15%. To increase efficiency of your operation, more options like payload measurement system, inclinometer and BAS Fleet Connect are available.

BAS Mining 8x4 Widespread tipper
8x4 widespread haul truck
  1. Stronger tandem axles, and widespread suspension with 385/95 R25 tires for axles 3 and 4. In this way, the tires on each axle can safely bear the 22.5 T load per axle, when the truck is fully loaded.
  2. The side-to-side stability is better as a result of the extra width over the tandem tires, the 8x4WS has a higher maximum theoretical lean angle limit.
  3. Based on the New Volvo FMX. The new cab is more spacious and designed for better visibility. All windows (front and sides) are wider which improves visibility around the truck.

KEY FEATURES

COMPONENT FRAME

The component frame has 3 functions: (1) protect the vehicle fuel tank, battery box, air tanks and hydraulic tank for damages (2) mounting bracket for gearbox cooler, steering gear cooler, tipper hydraulics and central lubrication system (3)optimizes the tipper mounting in respect to the weight distribution and creating space for the tilting cylinders

DOUBLE OPERATIVE CYLINDERS

The two cylinders have double action. The tipper is squeezed upwards and is then pulled back down again. That saves a lot of dump time. The tipper has a special shape, so it already empties during dumping, thereby emptying as quickly as possible. Tiptime up 28 seconds, down 19 seconds.

Full Innerliner

For vehicles dealing with high frame stress, it is recommended to add reinforcements to the frame over the most exposed areas. The frame full inner liner is a 5 mm thick reinforcement profile, made from high-strength steel, that is applied from the front to the end of the frame.
