KAMAZ-65201: technical specifications

Selfies with KAMAZ-65201

One of the leaders of Russian automobile industry, the Kama Automobile Plant, is constantly forced to work in conditions of serious competition with foreign manufacturers. First of all, with Chinese manufacturers (the European KAMAZ is beating the prices). One of the main indications of the strategic development program is the expansion of the truck range, an important part of which is the trough. Here is a specific embodiment of this strategy – the Kamaz-65201-A, a powerful dump truck with a new 8×4 wheel configuration and unprecedented payload of 25.5 tons (29 tons for the “Kamaz-65201 Lux”)).

The four-axle Kamaz-65201 has been producing since 2002 and is equipped with straight and oval (“bath”) bodies. All modifications are equipped with a cargo platform with only rear unloading system. The KAMAZ-65201 chassis are also equipped with high-capacity Ivanovets, Ulyanovets, Galichanin trucks with carrying capacity of 50 tons, as well as concrete mixers for 10 or 12 cubic meters.

The Kamaz-65201 truck is one of the most anticipated models for domestic vehicles in the early 2000s. It received a special price at the MIMS-2005 auto show. Despite not the best economic times (a significant reduction in the construction sector, etc.), the number of Kamaz-65201 models in 2000s has increased slightly. “Kamaz-65201 are exported to Arab and African countries.

The scope of “Kamaz-65201” trough is the transportation of industrial goods and components in large quantities. An additional axle contributed to a significant increase in capacity. Basically, Kamaz-65201 is used to service large construction sites.

transmission .

The KAMAZ-65201 Lux is equipped with a mechanical 16-speed transmission. It consists of:

Engine;
Clutch mechanism;
Front gear;
Transmission;
Cardan equipment;
Differential;
Middle axle drive type;
Inner axle;
Windshields;
Wave power selection boxes;
Transfer case.

The clutch mechanism allows you to disengage the engine and transmission. This is necessary to change torque figures over a wide range.

The front splitter is used to double the number of gears. Together with the gearbox, it is combined into a common electrical unit, which is attached to the frame of the car.

The differential serves to distribute torque between the axles, so devices of this type are called central units.

Electrical equipment

The design of power equipment on the Kamaz includes:

The power supply system;
Light and sound signaling system;
External lighting of the vehicle;
Internal lighting of the cabin;
Control and measuring mechanisms;
driver
Window cleaning device;
Engine starting system.

The power supply system is necessary for the operation of the mechanisms during the operation of the electric unit. In this case the power sources are 2 batteries, which are connected one after the other. The negative terminal is connected to the remote control system to the transport system.

Also electrical equipment is equipped with a relay that unwinds the excitation winding circuit of the alternator while the electric lantern is running.

Brake and steering system

All wheels of KAMAZ-65201 dump truck are equipped with reliable drum brakes with traditional pneumatic drive. The diameter of the brake drums is 420 mm, width of the brake pads is 180 mm, and the total area of their working surface is 9600 cm2.

Between the front axle and the rear bogie is an additional, fourth axle. This axle is steered in the same way as the front axle – by turning the steering wheel, the wheels of the two drive axles are turned. At the same time, the presence of the fourth additional axle does not complicate driving at all.

Many people say that the brakes on KamAZ-65201 are clearer and more predictable than on the three-axle KamAZ-6520. To stop the KAMAZ-65201, it’s enough to slightly press the brake pedal.

Of course, the turning radius is larger than on the three-axle 20-ton KamAZ-6520. Wheel formula is 8×4 and was designed to transport heavy loads while maintaining a decent manageability. The effort on the steering wheel is still more than on the three-axle dump truck, although the KamAZ-65201 is equipped with a very powerful steering booster ZF.

wheels and tires

KamAZ-65201-6012-43 is equipped with pneumatic disc wheels with tubeless tires (size 315/80 R22.5).

arrangement

The main systems and components of the KamAZ-65201 were specially designed for use on vehicles with increased capacity. The strengthened and elongated frame, supplemented with massive reinforcements and straight longitudinal members of the same cross-section, increases the strength and reliability of the vehicle. The lifting capacity of each drive axle is 13,000 kg. This element can easily withstand permanent overloads. The locking function of longitudinal and inter-axle differentials significantly increases the off-road capability of the vehicle, which allows using it in bad road conditions.

The model is equipped with a reliable braking system, complete with automatic adjustment of distance between drum and pad. It is also equipped with an adsorptive dehumidifier, traction control system (ASR), speed limiter and anti-lock brakes (ABS).

Stability and handling have been improved with the introduction of anti-roll bars for the rear and front suspensions. A stabilizing frame prevents the platform from tipping to the side during loading or unloading. Additional protection is provided by the rear underride bar and side protection.

The KAMAZ-65201 cab is more comfortable and convenient, as compared with the previous products of the KAMAZ plant. It has a steering column with variable geometry, which provides the ability to adjust the steering wheel in tilt and height, multi-layer noise and heat insulation, driver’s seat with different adjustments and a powerful heating system. Thanks to the modified power steering, the wheels are easy to turn even when fully loaded and the engine is off. The advanced 16-speed ZF 16S151 gearbox provides low fuel consumption. Since 2005 this element is assembled at the ZF-KAMA plant in Naberezhnye Chelny.

In general, the Kamaz-65201 has established itself as a reliable and miniature Aurto, able to withstand heavy loads for a long time.

Overall dimensions of the dump truck:

Length – 9250 mm;
Width – 2500 mm;
Height – 3250 mm.

The turning radius of the vehicle is 10500 mm. The truck is capable of climbing up to 25% and accelerates up to 90 km/h.

Cab

At first the four-axle Kamaz 8×4 was equipped with a traditional “Kamaz” with a cab from the 70s/80s. In the updated version Muldikippers-65201 Lux “, Lang, the long-awaited innovation was the replacement of morally and technically obsolete classic cabin with a new, modern, well-equipped one from the Mercedes Aktros truck. It is much more comfortable, spacious, with a high roof. The cab for the dump truck is offered without a sleeping compartment, but if you want you can order a cabin with a full “sleeping bag”.

Unlike the old Kamaz a-65201, in “luxury” version the cabin is installed not on an air suspension, but on a four-link spring. Nevertheless, like with a spring suspension, the Kamaz-65201LUX mulicipator goes very smoothly and gently erases the roughness of the street. The cabin is relatively quiet and comfortable. The cabin of the new dump truck is quite high. In addition to the main steps there is a step of flexible suspension, the lowest one, to increase the workplace more easily.

Modifications

Kamaz-65201-21010-43. This is a serious tipper with a load of 7000 kg on the front axle and 8000 kg on the rear. Weight of the lifted cargo must not exceed 29 000 kg. It is equipped with 740 632-400 engine, which meets Euro-4 international standard. The electric unit has a diesel turbocharger, intermediate cooling system and ZF16S825 transmission.

Design features

The main advantage of four-axle breakdown trucks is the lower axle load and, consequently, improved distribution of usable mass over the axles. Of course, the main weight charge still falls on the rear vehicle, as in three-axle ideas. However, the load on the second axle here is much higher than on the front (engine and cab). Another positive effect of four-axle trucks, which was immediately noted during the inspection and test-drives of the new truck, is an impressive softness of movement even in unloaded condition.

This heavy truck is built on an improved frame platform with strong spring suspension of front and rear axles. This model of dump truck is equipped with an all-metal platform with a straight front. In addition, the front of the body is equipped with a visor, which serves to protect the cabin. The key components and structural elements of the Kamaz-65201 design were developed in accordance with all world canons of heavy vehicles.

The first Kamaz-65201 was made on the basis of an old cab.

The extended and reinforced frame of the tipper truck was supplemented with solid reinforcements and straight-lengths of the same intersection, which ensured the best reliability and durability. The carrying capacity of each of the driving axles of the Kamaz-65201 dump truck is 13 tons. They can withstand regular overloads. Due to the inter-axle and inter-axle locking function, the lifting capacity and maneuverability of the vehicle is significantly increased.

The stability and controllability of the feeder is greatly improved by equipping the rear and front trailer with a “reptilian” stability stabilizer frame. The stabilizer frame prevents lateral shifts of the self-help platform during loading or unloading. Additional protection is guaranteed by the rear beam and side guards.

The KAMAZ-65201 reel dump truck is equipped with a reliable braking system, which is supplemented by a total clearance between the drum and the pad. The vehicle is equipped with an adsorptive air dryer, ASR – anti-cycling system, limiter and ABS – anti-lock braking system. The platform has rear unloading, hydraulic lifting mechanism and 55 degree lift.

The lift and lowering mechanism is controlled electrically and pneumatically from the driver’s cab. On customer request, as an additional option, it is possible to install a platform with heated exhaust.

Kamaz-65201 Mild Truck Motor

As the power plant on this dump truck is used eight-cylinder V-shaped diesel engine KAMAZ-740.73-400, which meets current standards “Euro-4”. This engine has a displacement of 11.76 L and is equipped with a turbocharger, forced air intercooler and electronic common rale injection system. The same engine was installed on earlier versions of Kamaz-65201, but earlier versions of 360-horsepower Kamaz-740.50-360 and Kamaz-740.60-360 (“Euro-2” and “Euro-3”).

400 hp diesel engine has an impressive range and traction. It is pretty easy to start in third gear. After a little acceleration it is possible to start. Type of exhaust and neutralization is a muffler with a neutralizer. The capacity of the tank with neutralizing fluid is 35 liters.

Transmission “Kamaz-65201”.

Test drives of the new Kamaz-65201 (both with the previous, and with the updated version of the engine) surprised all automotive journalists. Because the look of a bulky, self-sufficient chassis Kamaz-65201 has an enviable acceleration dynamics. Not every truck can accelerate up to 60 km/h in 15.6 seconds, almost like a car.

Not only the powerful diesel engine contributes to this, but also a mechanical 16-speed German-made gearbox 16S 151. The pleasant dynamics of acceleration also depends on how quickly and precisely the gearbox is engaged. There are no delays in engagement of gears or their inaccurate engagement. The gearbox Zeef Ovsky works clearly and without effort.

It is worth noting that the KAMAZ-65201 Druzhok shifts quickly with a gear ratio of 5.11 more as a traction. However, the chassis for the installation of concrete mixer or crane-manipulator is equipped with a main gear with a gear ratio of 6.33. The 16-speed ZF 16S 151 gearbox is equipped with a mechanical remote control and a dry single-disc membrane clutch. The cup drive is hydraulic with a pneumatic auxiliary device.

Reviews about the vehicle “Kamaz-65201”

In general, drivers and owners speak well about this dump truck – the cab is intelligent, with air suspension, which rides very softly. It’s a pleasure to work on, spending a lot of time every day.

One of the owners says that during the first months of operation he had to take off and put on the charge air cooler several times, because the right tank always went to the left. This problem was fixed with a bit of a bang.

A more serious problem, which caused a lot of testing and simple technology, showed up after only 35,000 kilometers. The engine stopped developing dynamism: it worked fine when idling, but as soon as it was warmed up the check was lit up and the car seemed to stall. I had to go to the Reach factory to find a solution to the problem. It was determined that the problem was with the electronic control unit.

“Specialists arrived. They spent ten hours running diagnostics and came to the conclusion that the camber had nothing to do with the ECU. They decided the problem was related to the fuel system. Called the factory, where they said they needed to remove the pump. A specialist completely inspected it. You brought the car in, but it doesn’t drive anymore … ” At the time of writing this rating, the problem had not yet been resolved.

Another owner had successfully operated a KAMAZ-65201 for five years (took it new). The car was reliable and inexpensive while waiting. According to the owner, the engine may not be powerful, but it is reliable enough. The camshafts never had to be replaced. Valves were first installed at over 250k mileage. The rest of the time the engine has been running smoothly.

He characterizes the dump truck as sturdy as well as the axles. He did not vote for his automobile “strength tests” and tried not to overload the 20-kilogram body, but also not to increase it.

It also reveals a very soft ride of the car, even in strained condition. Of course, it climbs uphill with difficulty. On asphalt and hard dirt roads, that’s its element. But it is not suitable or suitable for mud (off-street) and work in quarries.

The only thing that the owner of this “Kamaz-65201” did not like was the “local” rubber. The one that came from the factory was not good, and soon had to buy another one, better, of higher quality.

The working place of the driver is very suitable and I like it very much. No joys, but very comfortable and most importantly – warm in all circumstances. Noise isolation is done well. “I do not argue that if you have extra money, you can take a Volvo or a Scania, but I did not. And I do not regret that I bought a “Kamaz-65201”, – concludes the owner of the car.

Not everybody votes for the quality of the sound insulation of the cabin: some people define it as average or even insufficient. There is no disagreement about the acceptance of the vehicle off-road: everyone defines them as weak. On hard pavement and firm, not absorbing moisture ground, “Kamaz-65201”, according to all owners and drivers, demonstrates excellent maneuverability for its size.

The quality of the factory painting and assembly of “Kamaz-65201” is also unanimously defined as poor. Serious and difficult to operate camber, as in the first of the above reviews, is still a rarity. But all kinds of minor faults and annoying defects, arising from time to time, are enough. However, spare parts are inexpensive and “on every corner”.

Many owners and drivers (in regions with hot summers) point out the lack of air conditioning in Kamaz-65201 cab. Yes, the heater works perfectly, and it is warm and comfortable in the winter, but in the summer the air conditioning system would not be superfluous. The cabin of the new axle is much more spacious and comfortable. The rating is excellent. All instruments are readable.

As for fuel consumption: the engine is quite insatiable, burns at least 40-45 liters of diesel fuel per 100 km with a loaded body. With an empty platform – 35 liters per 100 km.

Cost of new and used Kamaz-65201 dump truck

The price for a new Kamaz 65201 starts at dealers of the Kama Automobile Plant from the mark of 5,850,000 rubles. For a used vehicle of 2007-2009 years of manufacture they ask 1.250.000-1.500.000 rubles; 2010-2013 years of manufacture from 1.400.000 to 2.700.000 rubles; 2014-2016 years of manufacture 2.500.000-400.000 rubles.
