High haulage productivity is claimed by Doosan for its updated ADTs

According to 695 Doosan, its latest generation ADTs can carry more material in less time. The DA30-5 and DA40-5 models are said to offer high load capacities as well as high engine power and traction, even in difficult terrain.

These trucks feature the novel driveline system from the firm that has been developed to maintain tyre contact with the ground at all times. This is achieved due to the combination of the machine’s tandem rear bogie, front-mounted turning ring, sloping rear frame and front suspension. These trucks have permanent, six-wheel drive for high traction in all applications.

Fuel-efficient and durable, the trucks are said to suit applications in difficult duties including mass earthmoving, road construction and quarrying.
