Underground mining truck

HX45

  • Tramming capacity 45 000 kg 99,000 lbs.
  • Standard box volume 21 m3 27.5 yd3
  • Dimensions 10 935 x 3 062 x 2 775 mm 430 x 121 x 109 in

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 which moves left and right; and up and down, this allows for a large amount of movement with a high degree of freedom. This minimizes stress on the frame and ensures a higher level of operator comfort.

Features and benefits

Ergonomics and comfort

ROPS/FOPs certified air-conditioned cabin with optional trainer seat. Three-point access, an operator seat with three-point seat belt, low-frequency pneumatic suspension, adjustable steering wheel, excellent visibility and intuitive controls.

Drive zero harm

Handheld fire extinguishers with optional fire suppression. SAHR service and park brakes, three emergency stop buttons, dump box interlock, reverse alarm, optimized LED illumination and optional camera system. Exhaust system heat insulation.

Built for productivity

Optional payload weighing system, customized dump bowls, data logging, and digital analytics help to optimize production and maintenance. It has an excellent turning radius and the best dumping angle in its class.

Easy to maintain

Ground-level maintenance with a lockable main switch and centralized service points. Options include an optional Wiggins fast filling system, tire pressure monitoring system and electric hydraulic filling pump.

Technology-ready

For access to data insights, this machine can be equipped with an optional data logging system and digital analytics solution. Automation ready with level 9 proximity detection interface.

Training made easy

Operator cabin has an optional trainer seat, which can assist when training new operators. Seat can also serve as an alternate means of transport for a mining person or technician underground.
