NO LESS than five models of varying degrees of 'newness' will be on display from Magirus Deutz. Designed for both haulage and tipper application, the 232D 26Fli sixwheeler has a design gross weight of 26 tons for on-site use although obviously it is limited to 24 tons on the road.
It shares many components with the existing eightwheeler including the aircooled V8 engine developing 170kW (228bhp) and the AK6-80 constant-mesh ZF gearbox. The 3.85m (12ft Sin) wheelbase gives a recommended body length for tipper application of 5.6 to 5.8m (181/2 to 19ft).
The eight-wheeler itself is now available with a longer wheelbase to make it more suitable for haulage and tanker operations than the existing tipper model.
In order to achieve this, the inner axle spread has been increased from 3.35 to 3.8m (lift to 12ft 6in) giving an increase of 450mm (173/4in), The chassis has been lengthened and reinforced to allow a 7.3 to 8.2m (24 to 27ft) body to be fitted, depending on application which represents an increase of 036 to 1.7m (21/2 to 51/2ft) body length over the existing vehicle.
One axle ratio (5.74 to 1) is available which in conjunction with the standard splitter gives a maximum road speed of 106km/h (66mph).
The heavy haulage market is being attracted by Magirus with a tractive unit version of the 310D 32AK bonnetted dumper. Designated the 310D 32AS, it has a permissible gtw/gcw of up to 250 tonnes depending on application.
Power is provided by a VIO air-cooled Deutz engine giving 225kW (301bhp) and 912Nm (6721bft) torque.
The 16 ton market is a new one for Magirus in this country with the NEC being chosen as the venue to launch the ,168M 16FL. The engine is an in-line six-cylinder unit of 6.12 litres (373cuin) capacity which produces 125kW (168bhp) at 2,65Orpm.
It is basically a six-cylinder version of the engine used in the Magirus lightweight range and is the first turbocharged Deutz engine to be sold in this country.
The gearbox is a five-speed synchromesh ZF unit which is coupled to the engine via a 356mm (14in) diameter single plate clutch. At the rear, an Eaton two-speed driving head is fitted in an IVECO axle housing.
A choice of four wheelbases for the 16 tonner will be available to the UK operator at 3.8, 4.4, 5.0 and 5.55m (12ft 6in, 14ft 5in, 16ft Sin and 18ft 3in). Completing the list of new Magirus models to be unveiled at the NEC are two new tractive units plated for 38 tonnes, the 256M 19FS and the 320M 19FS. Both are powered by the new 413F range of Deutz engines, a V8 producing 191kW (256bhp) and a V10 producing 239kW (320bhp) DIN.
Like the current range, the new units are of modular construction and share many common components including pistons and cylinder barrels.
The bore and stroke have both been increased by 5mm (0.196in) which has increased the swept volume by 1.6 litres (97.6cuin) per cylinder.
The new engines develop their maximum torque at a lower rpm which has allowed Deutz to reduce the rated speed of the engines to 2,500 rpm. A 13-speed Fuller gearbox is standard equipment as is the 13 tonne Magirus hub reduction axle. The brake system is full air usingRockwell "stopmaster" wedge brakes which have a 37.8 per cent increase in frictional area over the current vehicles.
The cab is the new IVECO design as used by Fiat and Unic. It tilts to 60° for engine access and is available in both day and sleeper cab form.
