As one of the key equipment in transport engineering, dump trucks play essential roles in many industries with their convenient unloading and wide applicability. In this regard, the article will expound on its applications and indispensable roles, and combine the actual needs of the second-hand market to examine the advantages of buying dump trucks.
I. The fundamental operations and uses of dump trucks
1.Multi-scenario application functionality
Dump trucks are mainly applied in construction sites, mines, ports, and other industries, and can carry bulk cargo such as earthwork, sand and gravel, and coal. Its hydraulic lifting system for the cargo box can realize quick unloading, so it is particularly suitable for short-range transportation with more loading and unloading frequency. For example, in mines, heavy-duty dump trucks can carry more than 30 tons per truckload, greatly improving the efficiency of transportation.
2.Hierarchical load design
By the model, the dump trucks’ bearing capacity varies from 3-40 tons:
Small city dump trucks (3-10 tons): can be used in urban construction garbage transportation.
Medium-sized engineering trucks (10-20 tons): used in sand and gravel transportation in motorway construction;
Large mining trucks (20-40 tons): particularly used for heavyweight materials in mines.
3.Technical advantages and flexibility
The dump truck, which is equipped with a hydraulic lifting system, has an unloading time of 30 seconds, which is 80% faster than manual unloading. It is also equipped with a strengthened chassis and high-grip, specially crafted tires that are capable of withstanding uneven terrain such as mud and sloping inclines.
II. Three important buying values of second-hand dump trucks
On the part of the dealers, the second-hand dump truck market has the following advantages:
1.Reducing the initial investment cost
Purchasing a new car is subject to an additional 10%-15% purchasing tax, but second-hand cars are exempt from the charge. Based on a medium dump truck, customers can directly save 40,000 to 60,000 yuan of capital occupation.
2.High market demand
More than 60% of the construction market consists of small and medium contractors. Such customers prefer second-hand dump trucks with a 5-8 year vehicle age. The payback period for these models is normally 1-2 years shorter than that of new vehicles.
3.The trend of vehicle condition transparency
The used car appraisal system has been improved. Through more than 20 professional inspections, such as engine condition detection and beam stress test, the dealers can accurately control the car condition and provide the customers with 1-3 months of main part warranty to establish a trust foundation.
III. Recommended typical application situations
Almost new vehicles within 3 years: the residual rate is 65%-70% of new vehicles, which applies to self-employed sand and gravel transporters who value reliability.
Engineering retiring vehicles: heavy-duty vehicles with a vehicle age of 5 years that are retired in batches from mines, and the load capacity still meets the standard after renovation.
Specially modified vehicles: North region special vehicles equipped with antifreeze heating systems, which are of excellent use during winter operations.
