Dump Truck 444 Series + Trailer

The open-box 444 series dump trucks provide an excellent collection and storage system for material at work sites.

On the larger end of the 400 series, the 444 DT is a heavy truck with a two conveyor networks and a number of storage options. It is powered by two hydrogen engines and several batteries.

The hinged bed can be raised or lowered with hydraulics, and the hitch at the rear connect to a trailer which can haul additional equipment.

A collector inside the bed, at the bottom of a ramp, easily collects ores or materials dropped into the bay, and two sorters allow on-site sorting and removal of unwanted material.

After leaving the work site, the connector on the rear, or the multiple ejectors, can be used to offload the materials at a depot.

The storage system used by the collector and the large cargo container is separate from the truck's internal storage system intended for fuel.
