With the Maxtreme tipper models P436 and H436, Meiller Kipper presents two bodies designed to meet the special requirements of bulk transport. Materials like rocks, gravel, construction debris, or clayey excavation put high demands on technology and machines, according to the announcement. With its new models, the Munich manufacturer aims to address these challenges. The solutions are intended to enhance both the efficiency and durability of the vehicles.
The half-round trough of the Maxtreme P436 is designed to provide optimal emptying behavior. Especially with sticky or moist loads, the large tipping angle allows the material to flow off quickly, describes Meiller. The central positioning of the load also contributes to better vehicle road holding. The model is designed for a total weight of up to 41 tons and offers a loading volume of up to 22 cubic
meters. It is designed for use in various areas, such as civil engineering, quarries, or urban construction sites.
The Maxtreme H436, on the other hand, offers a square trough with straight side walls. This increases the loading volume for the same vehicle length. The construction also promises advantages when loading bulky materials. This model too is designed for a total weight of up to 41 tons and a loading volume of up to 22 cubic meters.
Another important feature of the Maxtreme series is the material Meiller uses. All troughs are made from Steellect, a steel optimized for the respective requirements. Meiller points to its long-standing expertise in steel processing and assures that the best steel is used for the respective application area.
Depending on the function of the components, a selection from different types of steel
is made – from flexible construction steel to wear-optimized fine-grained steel with hardness levels of up to 450 HBW. The material selection is intended to reduce abrasion and extend the service life of the troughs. Moreover, repair costs and downtime decrease, enabling high planning security on the construction site for construction managers and project leaders.
The robust vehicles promise benefits for truck drivers as well: The structure is less prone to damage such as chipping or cracking, making it more resistant to daily stresses. This leads to a reduced vulnerability to corrosion and contributes to the durability of the vehicles.
The Maxtreme models are also supposed to score with additional practical details. The vehicles are equipped with various rear wall solutions that can be selected depending on the load. Swinging, hydraulic, or mechanical chain flaps are available,
which can be controlled automatically or manually during the tipping process. A tip stabilization protects the frame from twisting and ensures safety when unloading on uneven ground.
Meiller positions the Maxtreme series not as a compromise solution, but as a flexible modular system that can be configured according to the case of use. The P436 is particularly suitable for quick turnover and frequent tipping, while the H436 is designed for heavy-duty operations with a variety of different materials.
In addition, the manufacturer advertises a high-quality surface treatment. All steel components are processed with a KTL primer and additional top coating. The precisely manufactured welds are created using the laser process and guarantee stability and durability of the structure. This not only ensures a long service life for the vehicles but also a well-maintained appearance, which is advantageous
