Howo Dump Truck Introduction
Howo dump truck is the best-selling model of HOWO Special Truck Ltd, featuring high torque and strong power. It has been sold to 94 countries in the Middle East, Africa, Russia and Southeast Asia. And it has a perfect local parts supply system. This tipper is mainly used for transporting bulk materials. Commonly, there are sand, gravel, ore and other materials. With strong transport capacity, Howo dump truck can easily cope with difficult terrain and harsh working environment.
Howo dump truck mainly consists of chassis, hydraulic lifting mechanism, cargo box and other components. Its loading compartment is designed to dump automatically. This greatly reduces the labour costs involved in the unloading process and reduces transport time.
HOWO tipper composition and function
HOWO dump truck as a representative of heavy-duty dump trucks. Its main components include a chassis, compartment, hydraulic lifting system, sub-frame, rear guardrail locking mechanism and protective devices.
Chassis of Heavy Dump Truck
The chassis of heavy dump truck is the foundation of the vehicle, and HOWO dump truck uses the heavy truck chassis coded as ‘3’. This chassis is manufactured and sold in many factories at home and abroad. Depending on the application, the conventional chassis types are light, medium and heavy duty tipper chassis, and the HOWO tipper chassis is designed to carry heavy loads. This ensures the stability and durability of the vehicle in various situations to a certain extent.
Body Type Display
HOWO tipper trucks have diversified carriage designs to meet the needs of different industries. Below are a few common body types:
- Tail lift: suitable for general cargo dumping.
- Tailboard lift: the rear part of the compartment can be lifted to facilitate the unloading operation.
- Rectangular Bucket: Common rectangular carriage design, suitable for transporting regular materials such as gravel and earth.
- U-shape bucket: optimised material sliding, reduce unloading residue, suitable for transporting bulk materials.
- Enhanced bucket: strengthened compartment material and structure design, suitable for transporting heavy materials such as ore.
According to the opening structure, Howo dump truck compartments can be divided into: single-door, three-door, five-door and skip type.
- Single door: the rear part of the compartment can be opened and closed automatically, which is convenient for unloading in one direction.
- Three-door: the left and right sides and the rear can be opened and closed, suitable for handling overloading or large-scale transport tasks.
- Five-door: front, rear and left/right multi-directional door opening design enhances the flexibility of loading and unloading.
- Dustbin type: The tilting design of the compartment floor is suitable for the transport of large materials such as ores, ensuring that the materials slide out smoothly.
Hydraulic Lifting System
There are two main types of hydraulic system for HOWO tipper:
Open hydraulic system: contains independent tanks for storing hydraulic oil and supplying oil to the cylinders during the lifting process.
Closed hydraulic system: There is no separate tank in the system and the hydraulic fluid is circulated back through the cylinder internals. This design simplifies the hydraulic system structure and improves lifting efficiency.
Subframe
Subframe plays a key role in dump truck, and its main functions include:
Supporting the lifting mechanism: the sub-frame houses the main components of the hydraulic lifting system to ensure the stability of the carriage during lifting.
Protecting the chassis structure: the subframe is designed to fit closely to the longitudinal beams of the chassis. This point-to-point contact ensures that the frame and the beams can support each other. It also prevents excessive damage to the chassis under heavy loads.
Rear guardrail locking mechanism and fenders
The rear guardrail locking mechanism is designed to automatically control the opening and closing of the rear of the vehicle during unloading. Through this system, the dump truck can realise automatic unloading, which greatly improves the operation efficiency. In addition, protective devices such as fenders further enhance the safety of the tipper during transport, preventing the cargo from accidentally falling.
sinotruk howo dump truck Features & Advantages
The Sinotruk Howo dump truck has many key features. These make it one of the most competitive heavy-duty vehicles in the market. It can meet the needs of different regions and industries.
Stable lifting system: HOWO tipper trucks are equipped with a centre lifting system to maintain stability when lifting the compartment. This design acts like a stabilising bar and improves safety during operation.、
Even load distribution: The centre lift system distributes the force evenly across the entire carriage. This reduces the risk of tilting and keeps the truck balanced when unloading.
Optimised chassis design: The chassis has been redesigned to shorten the wheelbase and maintain the length of the cabin. This improves cornering agility and overall safety. The central lifting system lowers the centre of gravity of the truck and reduces the height by 50-125 mm. This improves stability and efficiency.
Efficient engine and fuel system: HOWO trucks use P-flange injection pumps with high-pressure and multi-hole injectors, which reduces fuel consumption. An integrated intake and exhaust system based on European standards improves engine performance and durability.
Advanced Transmission System: The HOWO transmission features a double intermediate shaft and planetary gear reduction mechanism for high load carrying capacity. The driveshaft adopts German GWB technology for high torque and high reliability.
Strong Frame and Suspension:The truck frame is made of high-strength alloy, which is durable. The front suspension adopts parabolic springs and the rear suspension adopts advanced balanced suspension system to ensure smooth and comfortable driving.
Reliable braking system: HOWO dump truck adopts double-circuit pneumatic brake, spring energy storage parking brake, emergency brake and exhaust assist system to ensure smooth and safe braking.
Areas of application
HOWO tipper trucks are widely used in many industries. This is due to their efficiency, reliability, and versatility.
Construction industry: HOWO tippers are common in construction. They transport sand, gravel, cement, and other materials. They have a strong load capacity and are durable. This makes them vital at construction sites.
Transport industry: HOWO tippers are used for transporting a variety of bulk goods such as grain, ore, and other materials. A smooth supply chain needs efficient transport capacity. It also needs reliability.
Mining industry: HOWO tippers are used to transport ore and other mined materials. These vehicles are powerful and durable. They can work well in the harsh mining environment.
Infrastructure Construction: HOWO dump trucks are also widely used on roads and bridges. They transport soil, gravel, and other construction materials.
Globally, HOWO dump trucks are sold and used in many countries and regions. They meet local transport needs. People also like them for their high efficiency, durability, and cost-effectiveness. For example, in Africa and the Middle East, HOWO tippers perform well. They handle harsh roads and high temperatures. These countries are in Southeast Asia. The vehicles are popular there for their ability to adapt to changing weather and terrain.
Choose a tipper according to your conditions
- Transporting sticky goods: avoid using standard bucket trucks when transporting sticky materials such as soil, sludge, etc. HOWO Special Truck Ltd suggests choosing a tipper truck equipped with anti-stick coating or automatic unloading device to ensure smooth unloading.
- Cabin length selection:
- Long compartments (over 6 metres): suitable for use with multi-stage cylinder front lifting structure to ensure stable lifting of heavy materials.
- Short compartment (below 4m): suitable for transporting bulky goods, keeping the vehicle’s centre of gravity low to ensure safety when driving and lifting.
- Coal transporter: Specialised coal transporter is suitable for light materials, the height of the compartment is usually between 1.6 and 1.9 metres. This type of vehicle is not recommended for earth-moving transport, as it is less stable when lifting.
- Define transport needs: When purchasing dump trucks, you should define the needs according to the actual type of materials to be transported and the operating environment, and communicate with the manufacturer to ensure that the vehicle configuration meets the expected use.
- Seek professional advice: Talk to the HOWO Special Truck Ltd professionals to get the latest advice.
