A 50-tonne prototype dump truck is the centrepiece of Bell’s impressive stand at INTERMAT 2015 and offers a real glimpse of the heavy construction industry’s future.
A key introduction coming from Bell Equipment is its highly productive, high capacity ADT. The new B60E is intended to compete in the market with smaller rigid haulers and is aimed at use in large quarry applications.
