For especially high payload and for extreme loads. With the Arocs, we provide you with a construction specialist that excel where it counts: on the construction site. And in the accounts department.
The Arocs provides for particularly efficient construction haulage. The Arocs is available to ensure this hallmark efficiency in particularly tough conditions and payload-sensitive operations, too – when dump semitrailers and concrete mixers are deployed, for example.
Higher payload, higher efficiency. These are the hallmarks of the Arocs 8x4/4 concrete mixer, with which you can transport 8 m3 of concrete. And the payload-optimised Arocs 4x2 semitrailer tractors provide for added economic efficiency in use as dump semitrailers, for example.
Steel and ideas for more payload. The Arocs comes as 4x2 semitrailer tractors and 8x4/4 concrete mixers which cut a fine figure at the construction site not only by virtue of their robustness, but also on account of their low fuel consumption and a particularly high payload capacity. In the case of the concrete mixer, this means that despite the substantially heavier Euro VI technology the Arocs is so light that you will have no trouble transporting 8m3 of ready-mixed concrete with the combination of 8 x 4/4 chassis and 9 m3 drum. And that pays – with every trip. The high payload capacity of the Arocs semitrailer tractors and concrete mixers results from a whole range of technical measures – such as the lighter windscreen and the wider rear axle with single tyres, for example. To provide you with maximum flexibility in configuring the vehicle, certain measures can also be "deselected".
The Arocs 8x4/4 concrete mixer with ClassicSpace S-cab comes with a 170 mm high engine tunnel, a displacement of 7.7 l and an output of 235 kW (320 hp). Measures to ensure the best possible payload include two specially developed, widened hypoid rear axles for single tyres and 385/65 R 22.5 wide tyres. In addition to saving weight, this combination is also conducive to particularly low fuel consumption.
Cabs. For added comfort, the Arocs concrete mixer can be provided with an M-cab. L-cabs of 2300 mm in width are additionally available for the Arocs tractor unit.
Engines. The Arocs with a displacement of 7.7 l and an output of 235 kW (320 hp) is intended specifically for payload-sensitive operations at the construction site. The Arocs semitrailer tractors and concrete mixers can additionally be equipped with the Euro VI engines of the 10.7 l displacement class in five output ratings from 240 kW (326 hp) to 335 kW (455 hp)156.
The Arocs fits the bill wherever particularly high stability and robustness are called for. With reinforced frame, reinforced suspension and bolstered self-confidence.
The semitrailer tractors, platform vehicles, concrete mixers and tippers configured for especially tough operations are front runners in terms of stability and robustness, too. The basis for the robustness of the Arocs is provided by the extremely strong frame consisting of cold-worked, high-strength fine-grained steel, with longitudinal members measuring 9 mm in thickness.
Axles. Robust multi-leaf parabolic springs with a hard compliance characteristic are fitted on the front and rear axle of the Arocs for particularly high stability and good ride comfort - even in extreme off-road terrain. Specially configured shock absorbers and stabilisers are additionally installed on the rear axles – for even greater robustness and for stable handling even with one-sided loads.
Wheels and tyres. Depending on the model variant and intended application, the Arocs is fitted with robust and durable 15-degree tapered rims or with wide-base rims. The wide-base rims come in conjunction with the robust tyres with high load capacity which are obligatory for these types of operations. To keep you on track even when you're off the beaten track.
