35-Ton Wheeled Flathead Mining Dump Truck: The "Workhorse" Solving Coal Mine Haulage Headaches

A Coal Mine’s Silent Complaint in Shanxi

In a coal mine in Shanxi, where 80% of daily work relies on ore haulage, Director Zhao stared at the maintenance log: "25-ton trucks make 12 trips a day just to meet the quota, but half the time is wasted on loading and unloading." The core problem? Mining haulage inefficiency—a pain point that haunted many mines until Shandong Beijun’s 35-ton wheeled flathead mining dump truck arrived.

Power That "Speaks" in Steep Mines

Driver Chen’s First Test Drive

"Last winter, I drove an old truck up a 15° coal slope with 30 tons—it stalled twice, and I froze in the cab for 40 minutes," said Driver Chen. But in the new 35-ton flathead truck, things changed: "The YC6MK375-T300 engine (276kW at 1900rpm) doesn’t hesitate. Even with 35 tons of coal, it climbs like it’s pulling a light load."

The secret lies in the powertrain match: Yuchai’s stable output pairs with the Shaanxi Fast 10JS200 10-speed transmission. "Shifting is so smooth that I don’t have to fight the gear lever anymore," Chen added. For heavy-duty mining machinery, this kind of power stability means fewer delays in ore transport.

Durability Tested by Coal Mine "Wear and Tear"

The Frame That Survived a Month of Bumps

Mines are tough on equipment—coal dust, rocky roads, and constant vibration. The first test for this truck was its frame: 300×80×(8+8+8) cold-formed profile steel. After a month of hauling coal on Shanxi’s bumpiest roads, the maintenance team checked: "No cracks, no deformation. The old truck’s frame would have needed welding by now."

The Kunlun 1200R20 mining steel wire tires also impressed. "We used to replace tires every 3 months because of sharp coal chunks," said Zhao. "These tires have thickened sidewalls—after 2 months, only minor scratches." Paired with HanDe reinforced axles, the truck handles 35-ton loads without straining, making it a reliable mining transport vehicle.

A Cab That Stops Drivers From Complaining

From "Freezer in Winter" to "Comfort Zone"

Driver Chen used to joke: "The old cab is a freezer in -15℃ winters and a sauna in 35℃ summers." The new enclosed cab fixed that: heating and cooling AC keeps it at 22-26℃ year-round. "Now I don’t have to wrap myself in 3 jackets," Chen laughed.

Other details matter too: the three-stage dry air filter blocks 98% of coal dust. "I used to cough up black phlegm after work—now it’s gone," he said. The digital LCD dashboard shows real-time data like oil pressure and tire temperature, so "I can spot problems before they become breakdowns."

Why It Saves Money for Mine Owners

Zhao’s 6-Month Cost Calculation

After 6 months with 10 units of this 35-ton truck, Director Zhao shared the numbers:

Haulage efficiency: 10 more tons per trip than 25-ton trucks → 5 fewer daily trips → ¥28,000 monthly fuel savings.

Maintenance costs: Fewer tire changes, no frame repairs → ¥30,000 saved in 6 months.

Compliance: The exhaust purifier meets national emission standards. "No more fines for exceeding limits—peace of mind is priceless."

Engineers’ Final Note

"This truck isn’t just built with parameters—it’s built for real mines," said a Shandong Beijun engineer. "The flathead design makes it easier to navigate narrow mine roads; the 5400×2500×1200mm cargo box maximizes coal load; even the front-cylinder lifting is faster, cutting unloading time by 2 minutes per trip."

For mines tired of inefficient haulage and frequent breakdowns, this 35-ton wheeled flathead mining dump truck isn’t just equipment—it’s a solution. It turns coal mine "headaches" into smoother operations, one load at a time.
