New configuration Renault Premium Lander on show at INTERMAT

Renault Trucks’ Tridem 8x4*4 is designed for carrying heavy loads in restricted spaces and is also suitable for mounting mobile cranes or vacuum units. Based on a lightweight Lander 6x4 chassis, the Tridem has an additional 10tonne rated rear steering tag axle giving it a turning circle some 10 to 15% tighter than a traditional 8x4 (depending on the wheelbase). Once back on the road the driver can, depending on the load being carried, raise the rear axle to increase fuel economy.

Both 720 Michelin and 5010 Goodyear have developed special 385/65 tyres to fit both the front and rear steering axles.

    GKN Land Systems has developed a high capacity hub and spindle solution for a pan scraper manufacturer looking to update its two-model range. “Our challenge was to go from a four-tyre to a two-tyre axle system, and give the OEM an option to provide different size wheel and tyre packages for its customers,” said Len Hensel, GKN Land systems’ chief engineer for wheels in the Americas. “The development of higher load capacity hub systems for this application led to the creation of a solution in just a few mo

    January 6, 2017
    Ammann’s new range of lightweight tandem rollers includes 13 models with operating weights from 1.2-4.5tonnes. A dedicated 4.5tonne model at the top of the range avoids the need to add ballast to smaller models to increase their operating weights. With better integration between Yanmar engine and Rexroth hydraulic system components, Ammann said the new models can operate at lower engine rpm without compromising on compaction performance. The result is improved fuel efficiency and lower working noise level

  • New small bridge inspection from Moog
    January 6, 2017
    The new crawler version of Moog’s MBI 50 unit has been designed especially for operation on narrow pedestrian bridges. With the load distribution on two crawlers it is possible to stick to a minimum area load even though the overall width is 1.6m and the weight 3,000kg. This makes it possible to work on bridges that are rated low-weight only.
