heavy haulage

A superior Dutch prime mover hooked to a tautliner semi low loader. The

combination is owned by Dutch heavy haulage specialist Rensink. The Volvo

is equipped with a heavy Palfinger crane mounted behind the cab., The rig

is quite heavy with a weight of 26 ton! The GVW if offering a kingpin load of

11 ton within the Dutch limits. 520 horses coming from a 13 liter 6-inline

are powering this Volvo.

A superb German registered Mercedes Actros prime mover. The Mercedes

SLT is hooked to a 3 bed 4 Scheuerle semi trailer. The big V-eight powered

tractor won't have much troubles with the loaded stone crusher. In the

background the obligatory pilot car in Holland.

 

 

A 470 hp turbo compund 6-inline is powering this Dutch Scania 5 axled tractor.

The Scania is hooked to 4 axled Nooteboom Euro low loader. Van der Vlist is

seeral of this kind of combinations. The unit on this pciture is loaded with a

heavy pile driver. For hauling equipment like this Van Der Vlist is opting often for

a Scania P-cab. The downside is the lack of power, a V-eight is no option under

a P-cab.

This Belgian MAN TGA is running for a storage tank manufacturer. The MAN is

equipped with a hydraulic crane. The rig is loaded with a small forklift.

It most likely delivered a tank on a construction site. The forklift assisted

with positioning the tank. The rig was photographed nearby

Kortrijk (B) in autumn 2010.
