Overview
A Local Regional Council initiated a critical infrastructure project to construct a new landfill cell. By partnering with earth gear, the council successfully completed the project using reliable and efficient solutions specifically tailored to meet its unique demands.
Challenge
The initial phase of the project demanded the export of a substantial volume of material from the site. The project’s scale required multiple site dumpers to work simultaneously, creating logistical challenges to ensure smooth operations without delays or bottlenecks. By partnering with earth gear and utilising their Hydrema dump trucks, the Local Regional Council addressed these challenges with a reliable and efficient solution tailored to the project’s demands.
Solution
earth gear supplied a fleet of Hydrema 912 dump trucks, including the 912HM and ES models, which feature the largest 10-tonne payload capacity in their class. Designed for exceptional performance, these machines boast a low kerb weight and wide tyres, ensuring minimal ground pressure, making them ideal for this project.
Results
earth gear supplied four Hydrema 912 dump trucks for the Local Regional Council project, delivering exceptional performance and efficiency. The increased payload capacity of the Hydremas significantly improved project productivity, reducing overall construction time. During the import of drainage gravel, the sensitive cell liner remained undamaged, showcasing the precision and reliability of the equipment. Operators highlighted the
Hydrema’s speed and mobility across the site, as well as the comfort provided by its unique variable-height live axle, ensuring smooth operations even during demanding 8-hour shifts.
