A reliable and powerful mining truck designed and built with productivity, performance and safety in mind.

The HX45 is a powerful, reliable and ergonomic 45 metric tonne mining truck. With its best-in-class power rating and dumping angle, oscillating articulation and excellent turning radius, the HX45 is built to deliver high performance and productivity. It’s also designed for operator comfort and efficiency with an ergonomically designed cabin, intuitive controls and a trainer’s seat.

  • 460kW best power rating in class
  • Excellent turning radius
  • Less material adhesion in the box due to best-in-class dumping angle of 68°
  • Articulation (between front and back sections) – oscillating articulation moves left, right, up, and down, allowing for a large amount of movement with a high degree of freedom which minimizes frame stress and ensures higher operator comfort.
