This is their main advantage over rigid haulers, which excel in carrying capacity. Where an articulated hauler can take no more than 55 metric tonnes there are models of rigid haulers (haulers with conventional front steering and rear-wheel drive) that can carry up to 310 tonnes such as the Belaz 7550. [6] This is also seen in the way they are ...
The WABCO 3200 was a rare example of a tri-axle haul truck configuration A medium sized haul truck, the 214-short-ton (194 t; 191-long-ton) Caterpillar 789 [1]. Most haul trucks have a two-axle design, but two well-known models from the 1970s, the 350T Terex Titan and 235T WABCO 3200/B, had three axles.
It is the largest articulated haul truck offered by Caterpillar; larger trucks use a rigid frame system. The ejector uses a 4-cylinder hydraulic ram and blade to dump the material out, a similar system to Cat's wheel tractor-scrapers.

Ford F-650 flatbed. Medium trucks are larger than light but smaller than heavy trucks. In the US, they are defined as weighing between 14 001– 26 000 lb (6 351– 11 793 kg).In North America, a medium-duty truck is larger than a heavy-duty pickup truck such as the Chevrolet Silverado 2500/3500, Dodge Ram 2500/3500/4500, GMC Sierra 2500/3500, and Ford F-250/F-350/F-450 Super Duty or full-size ...
Respectable diagram of the major points on a standard tractor trailer truck (or articulated lorry, if you happen to be from the other end of the pond). Admittedly not a particularly exciting image, however it does label and show and the standard points of a tractor trailer truck quite well, and that I judge is worth a shot here.
The Titan was the largest in the Terex 33 series of off-road haul trucks, which also included the 33–03, 33–05, 33–07, 33–09, 33-11 and the 33–15. The 33-19 and the 33-15 both used diesel/AC electric powertrains, while the other, smaller members of the 33 series of haul trucks used mechanical powertrains.
Four years later in 1954, the company produced its first wheel loader H10.
