Articulated Dump Trucks

Haul with Confidence

High productivity means more material moved every day. The DEVELON articulated dump truck (ADT) lineup offers larger load capacities in their respective weight class categories along with superior power and traction.

Each model is reliable, dependable and cost-effective. Backed by more than 40 years of excellence in the ADT market, DEVELON ADTs are built for tough hauling conditions and travel over 34 miles per hour. With sure-footed traction, maximum ground contact and a quick-unloading tailgate, they are ideal for applications such as construction sites, road projects, mass excavation, mining and quarrying environments.

Maximum Power-to-Weight

Engine sizes, torque and horsepower have been carefully selected to achieve max performance across criteria including load capacity, driveline ratio performance and transmission efficiency. DEVELON provides and ideal power-to-weight ratio.

Excellent Traction

With limited-slip differentials, DEVELON ADTs deliver optimal traction. The updated driveline’s limited-slip differential transfers power to both the right and left wheels, automatically giving the highest torque to the wheel with the best grip.

Powerful Engine

DEVELON ADTs have a proven, reliable and powerful diesel engine with exceptional torque to help maximize efficiency and minimize fuel consumption.

Make Hard Work Easy

Steady Performance Every Time

A strong frame and body design with lightweight, high-grade, wear-resistant steel reduces the total weight of the truck. This leads to less horsepower required for operation. In addition, the transmission configuration features smooth gear shifting and improves the transfer of power from the engine to the driveline.

For more reliable dumping performance, a center of gravity adjustment assists in managing load placement during dumping. If a load starts to pull the hoist cylinders backward, the system adjusts to slow down the dumping speed of the truck body, letting you prevent spillage or unexpected dumping.

Work Harder In Difficult Terrain.

A key feature of DEVELON ADTs is the front-mounted turning ring which, with the free-swinging rear tandem gear-driven bogie, allows permanent 6-wheel contact for smoother rides in very rough and soft terrain. Greater shock absorption from the new hydro-gas, self-leveling front suspension adds to increased stability as the trucks move across jobsites.

A sloping rear frame, in combination with the track width, provides a lower center of gravity, which increases lateral stability and eliminates the need for wide, low-profile tires. A gradient meter helps you monitor the incline and pitch for improved safety.

Hassle-Free And Easy To Maintain

Designed For Durability.

The reliability of DEVELON articulated dump trucks sets them apart from the rest. How? Durable components and proven manufacturing processes. Specifically designed engine and transmission components are thoroughly tested to maximize the quality of the trucks.

Vehicle Control Unit Keeps You Informed

The Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) on DEVELON ADTs displays on a new in-cab monitor with larger gauges and intuitive graphics controlled by display panel buttons. Increased visibility around the truck comes via the rearview camera viewable on the main display. You can also quickly check machine status, service and settings by toggling through the on-screen menu.

Maintenance Within Your Reach

DEVELON ADTs are designed to make maintenance easy. Ground-level filling for fuel and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) allow for easier access. A centralized maintenance panel also offers ground access to transmission filters and drain ports as well as the auto-lube system, grease storage and more.

The updated cab structure and mounting provide easier transmission service when needed.

The ADT power module also features easier access with an emergency shutdown button and lockable battery disconnect switch.

Productive And Comfortable

Unparalleled Levels of Comfort.

Whether you face long days or rugged jobsites, you’ll stay comfortable in a DEVELON articulated dump truck — even when conditions are at their worst.

The cabin design offers unparalleled levels of comfort and meets both Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS) and Falling Object Protective (FOPS) criteria. Features include air conditioning, an air suspension seat, precise steering, good visibility and low noise levels. A sloping hood provides an excellent view from the cab. Fully automatic climate control and a rubber suspension cab mounting provide improved operating conditions.

More Critical Information at a Glance

DEVELON ADTs keep you in the know with a new active payload measuring system that shows each load’s weight on-screen for increased load optimization and productivity. Outside the cab, a traffic-light-style indicator helps excavator and wheel loader operators prevent overloading.

The easy-to-read, multi-function 7-inch display easily relays additional critical info including speed, engine rpm, machine warnings, temperatures and more. Monitor fuel and DEF usage with gauges displaying both levels and consumption. An on-screen gradient meter also offers improved safety.

More Precision At Your Fingertips

Inside the cab of select models, you’ll find a fingertip-controlled body-dumping lever located next to the gear selection lever. Control of the body dumping is done with minimal operator strain. The hoist function incorporates a higher body-up speed and automatic body-down features, providing a soft, controlled lowering of the dump body that improves ease of operation and control.

The “tiptronic” gear shift feature enables you to run the truck in both automatic and manual to ensure the smoothest gear shifts and momentum during operation. Add to that the benefit of low cabin vibration provided by rubber suspension mounts.
