The next stage of factory testing of the new front-end loader BELAZ-78241 with a bucket capacity of 6.6 m3 was completed. Over time, this vehicle will replace the front-end loaders of BELAZ-7822 series, which have been in production since 1997.
The design of the loader features original layout solutions to improve the main performance indicators. Easy access to the main service points is implemented. The loader is powered with 575 hp diesel engine.
The new hydromechanical transmission featuring four forward and four reverse gears was applied. The diagnostic and protection system is implemented to monitor the status of the hydromechanical transmission. The option is designed to diagnose the operation of the transmission, detect critical errors and display information about the failures on the monitor in the operator's cab.
The cab is designed for the most convenient operation. The large glazing area provides excellent visibility. The ROPS and FOPS safety systems are seamlessly integrated into the cab design. The loader's working equipment is controlled using joysticks and integrated with the automatic positioning system, which provides raising of the bucket to a pre-programmed height and lowering into the ground cutting position to facilitate the operator's work.
The information from the installed weighing system is also displayed on the electronic panel along with other important data on the operation of the front-end loader and its systems.
BELAZ-78241 is designed to operate with mining trucks with payload capacity of up to 60 metric tons. Today OJSC "BELAZ" offers complex supply of mining equipment — dump trucks with payload capacity from 30 to 90 metric tons together with matching loading equipment.
