HigHer operating effieciency

Advanced technology
Less kerb weight which can carry more payload More than the necessary expenditure of energy contributes to excessive consumption of fuel. Less kerb weight for given payload consume less energy for transportation which directly translates to less fuel. More productivity is achieved with less kerb weight of the vehicle and more payload. The power to weight ratio improves with less kerb weight. Electronically Controlled Operations The engine control module takes in data from several sensors on the engine and the vehicle. The control unit compares current readings with stored parameters And adjust fuel quantity and injection timing accordingly, throughout the engines operation. The vehicle control unit collects data from various cab sensors for vehicle speed, accelerator position, service brake, parking brake, cruise control, retarder and power takeoff,and then transmit it to various other control units in the system. All Electronic Control Units are integrated with each other for accuracy in controls. This keeps the fuel consumption low. Integrated split gear gives low fuel consumption The split gear, which is a compact and sturdily supported unit, is fitted on the input shaft in the forward part of the basic unit. The split gear is operated by compressed air, and the split cylinder is integrated into the clutch casing. The high and low positions of the split gear are preselected with a button on the gear lever knob. Shifting takes place as soon as the clutch pedal is depressed. In the low-split position, a downshift takes place which halves the shifting step between two basic gears. Thanks to the low-split function, the correct gear can be selected in relation to the engines economy speed, which results in lower fuel consumption. The high split together with 6th gear provides a direct gear where the power passes straight through the gearbox with a minimum of friction losses. Engine Idle Shutdown Engine idle shut down happens after three minutes when four conditions are satisfied. The conditions are engine must be warmed up, must be running at idle speed, parking brake must be activated and no usage of brake pedal nor accelerator pedal must be there. A display warning (no buzzer) will be given 20 seconds before shutdown.

speed
The following graph depicts the vehicles capability to maintain high average speeds even at the high grades of mining roads. Even at a steep gradient of 1:16, enough power is available with the vehicle to propel it at a constant speed of 28 kmph.

The following graph demonstrates the tractive effort pattern of the vehicle at various gears and vehicle speeds. Each curve represents the engine torque curve multiplied by the corresponding final drive reduction ratio and inverse of gearbox gear ratio, the rolling radius of the tyres. The result indicates the tractive force at the rear wheels. The right side data shows the inclination (in percent) which the truck can climb in each gear. To determine the gear, plot the point which would denote the given speed against given gradient. Gears on the curves above the point would take up the given conditions. Any conditions outside the curve would be non-feasible.
