Dump Trucks

 
Dump trucks are trucks used for transporting loose material such as sand, dirt, and gravel for construction. The dump truck is equipped with a hydraulically operated open box bed hinged at the rear, with the front portion being able to be lifted up to allow the contents to fall out on the ground at the site of delivery.


 

Backhoe loaders.

 
A backhoe loader is a versatile, multipurpose machine that can be used as an excavator and as a loader  which allows you to quickly travel on the road to the job site.  It has a working face at the front band the rear side.
 
 
Diesel-fueled engines mounted on backhoe loaders drive the torque converter and shift gearbox. The hydraulic pressure generated by the pump transmits the oil to the cylinders to move the front and rear work equipment of the machine. The operator performs heavy-duty jobs that require a large amount of power by moving levers or joysticks with little effort. Servo-actuated controls enable greater operator comfort.
 
Backhoe loaders are available in various configurations, with the main difference being the steering modes (e.g., four-wheel steering feature allows you to operate in narrow spaces, extending versatility of the machine). The optional telescopic arm extends the flexibility for attaining the maximum digging depth. Rear outriggers, which can be vertical or horizontal, increase machine stability while digging. A backhoe attachment can be mounted or adjusted to allow digging along the walls.
