Perlini - the 705 WD dump truck

Looking for efficient dump trucks? Then inspect the DP 705 WD from Italian dump truck manufacturer Perlini, part of the Cangialeoni group. The 705, with a payload of 65tonnes, now boasts a Scania DC 16385A engine - a 4-cycle, water-cooled 90° V8 power plant that is EU stage 5 compliant. The electronic management of the engine remains in communication with the parent company which can diagnose issue and organise repairs and vehicle downtime.

Italian buyers can also take advantage of a new tax reduction scheme – thanks to the National Industry 4.0 Plan - for buying more fuel efficient “smart” construction vehicles, such as the 705 – thanks to the vehicle’s GPS monitoring system. It can track kilometres travelled, monitor body positions, hours worked and help reduce fuel consumption even further because it will prevent overloading of the vehicle.

    Mobility pricing and electronic tolling is the future, delegates to a recent ASECAP Study Days conference, reports Geoff Hadwick at the Lisbon event.
