The body of an articulated dump truck is made up of two parts. The cab part articulates from the dump body, allowing the unit to steer and the wheels to follow on a more overlapping course than a traditional steering arrangement would allow. Articulated Dump Trucks are often utilised for jobs that require moving heavy loads through uneven terrain, whereas standard Dump Trucks are ideal for hauling over-the-road and long distances.
Weighing is accomplished by sensing the axle deformation caused by the load being placed in the body. Our hi-tech, heavy duty sensors are installed in such a way so as to provide an accurate weight whilst loading and operating in the toughest of site conditions. “A simple solution providing outstanding results”.
