SINOTRUK HOWO 6x4 Dump Truck: Built for Africa's Demanding Terrain
The SINOTRUK HOWO 6x4 dump truck is a robust and versatile heavy-duty vehicle designed to meet the challenges of Africa's diverse operational environments. With a focus on durability, payload capacity, and adaptability, this truck is ideal for mining, construction, and infrastructure projects across the continent.
Key Features
1. Power & Performance
- Engine Options: Equipped with high-torque diesel engines such as the WD615.87 (290 HP) or WD615.47(up to 371 HP), delivering reliable power for steep gradients and rough terrains.
- Transmission: Manual transmissions (e.g., HW15710 with 10 forward gears) ensure precise control, even on unpaved roads.
- Drivetrain: 6x4 configuration provides superior traction in muddy, sandy, or rocky conditions, critical for African off-road operations.
2. Durable Construction
- Chassis & Frame: Reinforced high-strength steel chassis (e.g., model ZZ3257M3241) resists bending and torsion under heavy loads, supporting payloads of 20-40 tons.
- Cargo Body: A 5.8-meter-long dump body (standard model ZZ3257M3847W) with 8mm-thick Q345B steel base and 6mm-thick sides ensures longevity against abrasive materials like ore and gravel.
- Hydraulic System: Front-lifting hydraulic tipping mechanism enables rapid unloading (≥50° lift angle), even in confined worksites.
3. Africa-Specific Adaptations
- Heat Resilience: Enhanced cooling systems maintain engine efficiency in extreme temperatures (up to 50°C).
- Dust Protection: Desert-grade air filters and sealed components protect critical engine parts from abrasive dust common in arid regions.
- Suspension: Multi-leaf spring suspension absorbs shocks on uneven roads, paired with ZF8098 power steering for stability.
4. Operator Comfort & Safety
- Ergonomic Cab: The HW76 cab features air conditioning, vibration-dampening seats, and a sleeper berth for long-haul comfort.
- Safety Features: Dual-circuit air brakes, anti-rollover frameworks, and LED work lights enhance safety during night operations.
5. Cost Efficiency
- Fuel Economy: Optimized engines (Euro II/Euro III compliant) reduce fuel consumption, critical in cost-sensitive African markets.
- Maintenance: Simplified mechanical systems and locally available spare parts minimize downtime.
- Warranty: Standard 1-year/50,000-km warranty, extendable through regional service networks.
