Modification of cars and cargo transportation tasks

The economy of any country is based on transport. Commodity trains, airplanes, motor ships and the most extensive segment of vehicles are trucks. There are several types and subspecies of road transport: trucks-dump trucks, airborne trucks, auto-refrigerators, multi-ton vehicles and special equipment on the automobile chassis, such as concrete mixers and fire trucks.

Giants

All trucks carry out the same task - they transport cargo. However, there are modifications to trucks that allow the equipment to be as close as possible to operating conditions. In large quarries of the mining industry , huge dump trucks "BelAZ" are involved, the carrying capacity of which is 25-27 tons. Giants successfully work on transportation of ore and minerals within the limits of career development. However, the modification of cars makes it possible to create such BelAZ vehicles that, if necessary, can carry cargo for long distances (the speed on the highway for cars of this class is up to 64 km / h).

Middle class

Smaller dump trucks - KamAZ, MAZ, KrAZ and similar brands - can accommodate 12 to 18 tons of coal, cement or crushed stone, as well as any other loose building materials. The plants provide for the modification of cars with lateral unloading, with a deep body or an elongated body profile. Autosamplers are easy to use, they have the highest efficiency. Used in local areas for freight traffic at short distances. Transportation of goods for long distances falls on another category of cars - onboard trucks.

Cars of the past

Until 1976 in the USSR, all freight traffic throughout the country fell on the car park ZIL ( Likhachev Plant ) and GAZ (Gorky Automobile Plant). At these plants, production is carried out, as well as a modification of cars. All known ZIL-130 was the most common carrier, reliable and unpretentious, it almost did not break. In parallel, the cars of the GAZ family worked (they were no less reliable GAZ-51 and GAZ-52, which were also produced in several modifications). In the early seventies there was a shortage of freight transport in the country. In this regard, in the city of Naberezhnye Chelny was built auto-gigant KamAZ (Kamsky Automobile Plant), which began to produce diesel trucks.

Modifications KamAZ

At present, KamAZ produces a number of diesel trucks and, simultaneously with the release, the KamAZ car is being modified. So, for example, there are 12 modifications among on-board vehicles, including "Mustang-4326" and low-profile "43253". Also produced are truck tractors 44108, 5460 and others - only 6 modifications; Dump trucks 43255, 45141, 53605, as well as 45142 and 45143 (agricultural) - only 12 modifications. A separate production produces about 20 modifications of low-profile chassis for military equipment. And finally, KamAZ sports cars come off the factory conveyor periodically (codes 4911, 4925 and 4926-9, which successfully compete in various competitions, such as the rally-marathon Paris-Dakar.) The modification of cars significantly extends the capabilities of the entire car fleet On transportation of cargoes.
