The supercar "Belaz - 450 tons", a photo of which is presented on the page, a dump truck for work in quarries, is the most powerful carrier in the world. A giant is produced in Belarus, in the city of Zhodino. In 2013, the giant was awarded the certificate "The largest dump truck on the planet." The dead weight of the machine is 810 tons, and the speed can reach 64 km/h.
The name of the dump truck "Belaz - 450 tons" is simplified, in the regulatory documents the car is listed under the index 75710. In comparison with foreign analogues, the vehicle parameters have a significant advantage. The model is constantly being improved during the production process, and by the end of 2015, a new "Belaz - 450 tons" should appear at the factory site, which, after testing, will go to quarry development.
Powerplant
Model 75710 of the Minsk Automobile Plant is equipped with a heavy-duty engine consisting of two diesel generators with a total thrust of 8500 hp, which feeds electric wheel drives. Atfully loaded dump truck motors provide maximum traction, and when driving with an empty body, one generator is turned off. Diesel fuel consumption is 500 liters per hour when traveling with a load.
"Belaz - 450 tons" and its power plant are designed to operate in temperature conditions from -45 to +45 degrees. The technical characteristics of the car allow its round-the-clock operation.
Economic benefit
The production of mining trucks is associated with large financial investments, and the price of a finished high-end model can reach six million in dollar terms. However, the production potential of the "Belaz - 450 tons" machine is so huge that the machine pays off in two years. And after that it starts to bring a net profit.
The development of a heavy-duty dump truck "Belaz - 450 tons" became necessary due to the increased demand for vehicles for mining enterprises. Existing machines could not cope with the volume of traffic. The specificity of open-pit enterprises is large-scale, mining is estimated at millions of tons, and these volumes must be delivered to their destination. Super-powerful Belazs are coping with this task today.
The need for high-capacity mining trucks is constantly increasing. The production capacities of BELAZ are expanding, over the past four years new workshops have been built, with a total area of about 30 thousand square meters. Are implemented everywherethe most modern technologies. Today, the Minsk Automobile Plant in Zhodino ranks first in the world in terms of the number of giant dump trucks produced. There are about 20 modifications of mining supertrucks in the model range. Each model is produced in accordance with the quality program developed by the leading research institutes of motor transport in Belarus and Russia. Cooperation between industrial enterprises of the two countries enables uninterrupted material support of production.
Export
Belarusian giants go to different countries, cars are willingly bought by companies involved in the extraction of minerals, iron and aluminum ore, bauxite and minerals. Reliable and trouble-free trucks have proven themselves in quarries around the world. Claims in the production of heavy supercars practically do not happen, since each breakdown due to the fault of the manufacturer is a loss of a significant amount, as well as the trust of the buyer. Therefore, at the plant in Zhodino, everything is done conscientiously and thoroughly.
"Belaz - 450 tons", "Chernigovets"
On August 21, 2014, the Governor of the Kemerovo region Aman Tuleev launched a unique production project in Kuzbass, open pit mining of industrial coal. The extraction of "black gold" in the amount of hundreds of millions of tons became possible thanks to the participation of new super-heavy dump trucks "Chernigovets", named after the quarry of the same name.
Governornoted that the named coal pit has been a testing ground for testing new world technologies for several years. All coal-mining equipment of the latest generation is focused on its sections. The Minsk plant of heavy vehicles produced a series of 450-ton dump trucks for Chernigovets.
Global competitors
In the category of the largest dump trucks, in addition to "Belaz - 450 tons", there are other supercars.
The main competitor of the 75710 model is the heavy-duty Liebherr T282B, which held the lead until the appearance of Belaz - 450 tons in 2013.
The German giant is followed by the Japanese "KOMATSU 930E - 3SE" super truck, which is considered the number one in the list of mining vehicles.
"Caterpillar 797B" is an American-made mining giant, radically different from its counterparts in the shop. Drive to the wheels comes directly from the engine through a seven-speed automatic transmission.

Even in the distant 17th century, the first battleships appeared. For a certain time, they were significantly inferior in technical terms and armament to slow-moving armadillos. But already in the 20th century, countries wishing to strengthen their fleets began to create battleships that would have no equal in terms of firepower

The Soviet truck "MAZ 500", the photo of which is presented on the page, was created in 1965 at the Minsk Automobile Plant. The new model differed from its predecessor "MAZ 200" in the location of the engine, which was placed in the lower part of the cab. This arrangement allowed to reduce the weight of the car
