Dump truck MAZ-5516: photos, specifications

Truck MAZ-5516 belongs to the family of three-axle trucks with wheel formula 6*4. The car is produced at the Minsk automobile plant since 1994. In this range there are models with a body equipped with a rear or tripartite form of discharge. Also, the car is used as a road train, for a single transport large volumes of bulk cargo. With this machine successfully aggregates the three-axle trailer. Explore features and specifications of this truck next.

Quick creation of vehicle

MAZ-5516 “born” in the days of the Soviet Union. It is characterized by simplicity of design, practicality and minimal, but comfortable equipment for the driver's seat. All domestic equipment-at least superfluous, only the required functionality to work. At this point a high degree of maintainability and cross-country.

The capacity of the machine is 20 tons. Along with an affordable price, this option led to the popularity of the vehicle in different economic sectors. Main area of application – construction. Machine are indispensable in the construction of roads, transportation of various bulk materials, including stone, sand, gravel and crushed stone. In addition, the car is operated for the transportation of hot asphalt and crumb on the roads for General and special use.

Usage

In the agricultural sector dump truck MAZ-5516 is suitable for transportation of fertilizer, crop, soil, compost. In production were a special modification of the truck, which was intended for grain transportation. The grain differed cargo platform with the increased volume, equipped with a system of bilateral lateral unloading.

In the forest industry considered the truck is equipped with a special platform length from two to six meters, on which is placed the waste wood. In addition, it is suitable for transporting waste and wood chip at different distances.

In the construction of dump truck MAZ-5516 used suspension spring-balance type with strengthened double frame (side rail type “two in one”). The metal body is triggered by means of a hydraulic device. In addition, there are modifications with bucket mechanism and a sliding Board.

Modifications

Today in mass production are the three modifications of MAZ-5516:

1. Version 5516А5 equipped with a diesel power unit YAMZ-6582.10 (Euro-3). The power rating is 330 forces HP (243 kW).
2. Model 5516А8 more than a powerful series of motors (on the basis of the YAMZ-7511.10Е2). Their strength – 400 "horses. Both versions have Yaroslavl blocks gear, tipper body with tripartite unloading. The capacity of machines – 20 tons.
3. Truck under the serial number 5516W4-420 engines are installed "Cummins". They correspond to the standard «Euro 4”, have a power rating of 300 "horses" of the aggregate transmission into nine ranges. Tipper platform of the vehicle is configured with “trough”, available only with rear discharge. Standard load capacity-15 tons.

The Engine MAZ-5516

Next, you will learn more basic knots and systems of the vehicle. Let's start with the powertrain.

Most trucks of this type that continue to operate in different post-Soviet countries, was released with diesel powerplants from the Yaroslavl motor plant. The engine is a turbine unit with eight cylinders and revving a 1900 / 2100 rotations per minute. Power ratings for the engines listed above.

Between the two most popular brands of engines differ in the type of fuel control equipment, electronic regulator, change of some parts and details in a constructive manner. At the same time for both versions characteristic a closed system of ventilation of crankcase gases and the overall configuration of the cylinder heads.

The Power plant MAZ-5516, the characteristics of which are described above, is fixed to one front and two side points. Also there is an additional fixture to support the engine. For access and maintenance of the node of the folded cabin by means of a hydraulic device. In the transport position it is fixed by a latch and tether. In the fuel tank of the vehicle placed in a 350 liters of fuel, consumption of which is about 30 l/100 km.

Transmission

Depending on the type of power plant, MAZ-5516, a photo of which is shown below mounted on the gear box YAMZ-2391 or YAMZ-2381. They have doubles main mode, five operation stages planetary gearbox (with transfer rate of 7.24). With foreign motors, mechanical transmission aggregates of nine modes, such as ZF 9S-109 or JS-135/TA. These nodes more responsive and efficient, but also more expensive.

The trucks use the clutch Yaroslavl production (184-15). It is a dry friction unit with a single disk, diaphragm, exhaust spring, friction pads asbestos free. The driven element include elastic fastening elements and spring-friction damper.

Steering and brakes

A Pretty solid size of the MAZ-5516 suggest the presence of an effective steering with a built-in dispenser, a main wheel, a column, a power cylinder, pump, piping and oil tank.

In terms of the brakes on the truck there are four systems:

• Main site.
• Parking brake.
• Support system.
• Fallback.

Moreover, there are devices to activate a locking system of the semi-trailer with pneumatic drive.

The Primary brake acts on all wheels by the drums, in all versions there is a system of “ABS”. Parking and backup node are aggregated with brake parts rear and intermediate axle is driven by means of special compartments.

The minor part is activated by creating back pressure effect in the chamber of exhaust gases. She applied for a small braking downhill and mountain roads.

Cabin

As the body of the MAZ-5516, the cab of the truck has recognizable features and characteristic of these machines configuration. The element is rectangular with smoothed angles. Impressive front bumper is used for passive protection. Designers have developed extended and standard cab option. Comfort level – minimum.

The Driver's seat sprung, provides for its adjustment and adjustment of the steering column. It should be noted that there was a good heater and decent noise insulation. To reduce the load vibration, and to improve the ride, the cabin is equipped with spring suspension with shock absorbers.

The inside

Consider a truck equipped with pneumatic shock absorbers under the seat of the driver, which promote a more comfortable ride even over rough terrain roads. The seat is fitted with devices for vertical and horizontal adjustment, the backrest is adjustable in angle. On request, the manufacturer also establishes the headrests and pads for the elbows.

In the extended version of the cabin shelves are placed at the back of the “seats” can easily be separated from the work area with partitions or curtains. The tunnel includes a storage box, which is also used as a table. Good visibility provides a high landing of the driver and multifarious side rear view mirror. Seat belts equipped with three locking points ensure a secure hold of the driver and the passengers in case of emergency. This equipment for the modern dump truck MAZ-5516.
