The latest generation Bell B30L and B35L Low Profile Articulated Dump Trucks (ADTs) for underground mining were recently unveiled by South Africa’s Bell Equipment which it says “deliver the lowest cost per tonne solution, more practical styling and an ‘autonomous ready’ platform that is easily configurable for remote operation either by a handheld remote control or a more sophisticated autonomous control centre.”

To achieve a more practical layout, product designers listened to customer feedback and moved from a centre-mounted cab to a left-hand side mount. The vehicle height remains unchanged at 2.6 m but the cab now sits much lower resulting in increased headroom and operator comfort. With this configuration Bell can offer a cab height of 2.4 m as an option.

The ergonomics of the cab have been further fine-tuned with an Isringhausen suspension seat and a workstation featuring Bell Equipment’s robust sealed switch module (SSM) and an all-new 7-inch colour monitor that is more responsive and displays improved graphics. A 360-degree camera gives a bird’s eye view of the vehicle and defaults to the right-hand side blind spot for added safety.

Under the bonnet the new generation Mercedes Benz OM471LA (320kW – B30L; 360kW – B35L) engine replaces the Mercedes Benz OM501LA (290kW) engine and provides a highly efficient power-to-weight ratio with superior drive up or out of the shaft and fuel efficiency gains.

Safety features include keyless start, Hill Assist, speed control, Bin Tip Prevention, Auto Park Application (APA) and Turbo Spin Protection to protect the engine.

The Bell B30L was recently demonstrated at two open days at the Bell Factory in Richards Bay in late 2020 providing an opportunity for an internal cross-functional review of the new truck to feedback any possible improvements.
