Haul Trucks
Our diesel engines for large haul trucks and
dumpers in tar sands and opencast coal mines, and for the transport of
copper, gold, iron ore or the mining of diamonds guarantee maximum
performance, higher load capacities and payloads, as well as minimal
costs per ton of material moved. Our diesel engines for heavy transport
vehicles, like from the Series 2000 or 4000 are specially designed for
24/7 continuous use in opencast mines.
Even when operating at full load they offer a huge amount of torque from
low engine speeds for maximum power, allowing the trucks to haul weight
of up to 810 tons up steep inclines – regardless of altitude,
temperature or extreme dust.
