Terex has updated its popular TR60 rigid dump truck with a Stage IIIB/Tier 4 Interim Scania DC16 engine delivering 515kW. This engine provides 5% more torque than previously and is equipped with selective catalytic reduction (SCR).
The machines were ordered in two separate consignments, for nine units and with a further order for 10 more trucks made shortly afterwards. The 19 trucks are to meet anticipated demand in Myanmar, where LHM has been the official Terex Trucks dealer since 2013. LHM’s affiliated company, Aung Hein Min (AHM), based in Yangon, provides sales, marketing and service solutions for Terex Trucks customers. The 19 TR100 rigid dump trucks will be used for jade extraction in Myanmar, transporting earth, rock and jade.
New Volvo Construction Equipment president Martin Weissburg hopes that the group’s US$160 million December 2013 acquisition of the Terex Equipment rigid and articulated hauler business will be finalised during the second quarter of 2014. It has been an important move for Volvo he said.
