Scania R 730 - Hup Hin

Hup Hin from Singapore (SG) is deploying this sharp Scania R 730. The truck stood parked here with a 6-axle trailer with oversized cargo along the road in an industrial area.

The truck is this Scania R 730 with 6x4-drive line. The truck is powered by a Scania DC16, a 16.4-liter 8-cylinder diesel engine with a power of 537 kW (730 hp). The truck is fitted with a Highline cabin.

Behind the front axle are the muffler, AdBlue tank and the diesel tank mounted.

On top of the two driven rear axles is a ballast box mounted, in the box are counterweight blocks loaded for sufficient pressure on the rear axles. The amount of counterweight depends on the total mass of the cargo. The box itself weights around 2 tonnes.

Attached to the bumper is a coupling to push trailers.

Attached is a 6-axle Cometto modular trailer. Between the two 3-axle-modules is a flat bridge mounted.

The cargo exists out of components of a portal crane. The two yellow beams weight around 10 tonne each and the two blue beams weight around 7 tonnes each, the total cargo is about 34 tonnes. Due to the dimensions is the transport only allowed to drive after 7:00 PM under police escort.

A very sharp vehicle of Hup Hin!
