The new modification of the KAMAZ-65951 truck was assembled on the main assembly line of the automobile plant. The representative of the K5 generation is designed to carry mixers on its chassis to transport concrete mix.
The KAMAZ-65951 dump trucks are well known to customers – these reliable, powerful trucks have been assembled on the auto giant’s main assembly line since 2023. “The main difference between the modification of the chassis to accommodate a mixer and the basic configuration of the KAMAZ-65951 dump truck is the PTO that drives the mixing drum,” said Ilshat Gimadeev, Chief Specialist for Advanced Heavy Vehicles at the Design Department of the R&D Center. “The novelty has an enlarged rear overhang of the frame, which enables to mount a superstructure for a mixer with a volume of 12 cubic meters, as well as truck tires designed for heavy loads.”
The truck is equipped with a KAMAZ R6 engine with a capacity of 460 hp, the chassis load capacity is 35 tonnes. The 8×4 wheel formula ensures stability even in difficult road conditions. The truck was assembled with the beat of the conveyor along with other KAMAZ trucks.
In the near future, the prototype will be sent for testing to the Research and Development Center of the company. In the future, this concrete truck will appear on construction sites in Russia, as well as in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, and Kyrgyzstan.
