Loader "Amkodor 342B": specifications and photos

Many labor-intensive operations require the mandatory use of a powerful, mobile, fairly simple to operate equipment, which at the same time must still maintainability, unification and durability. One of such machines, endowed with all the above characteristics, is the loader "Amkodor 342B". We will talk about all its design features and characteristics in detail in this article.

Appointment

"Amkodor 342B" serves to ensure the proper level of mechanization during the loading, unloading operations, which are associated with the movement of lump and loose materials. Also, the machine is used for transport, excavation without performing preliminary loosening of the underlying surface. In addition, the loader is used in the construction of roads, during the execution of assembly or rigging works.

Exploitation

"Amkodor 342B" is used both in the industrial sector, and in construction and even in agriculture. It is allowed to use the machine in a temperate climate, where the ambient temperature range is between -20 and +40 degrees Celsius.

Common parameters

The front loader "Amkodor 342B" is provided with excellent working parameters, which allow to carry out a very large amount of work for a very small time interval.

The load capacity of the machine is 4 tons. At the same time, the bucket volume reaches almost two and a half cubic meters, and its edge has a length of 2500 mm. The loader is able to lift the load for subsequent unloading to a height of 3,100 mm. Also, when unloading, the bucket will fly out to a distance of up to 1100 mm. The rollover load is 80 kN. To turn the machine requires a radius of 6000 mm. The tear force does not exceed 120 kN.

Capabilities

Considering the impressive load capacity, the "Amkodor 342B" is able to move large loads to the required distance. Particularly noteworthy is the sharp and rather long cutting edge of the bucket, which allows the loader to handle problem soils - stony and clay soil. Also such types of soil the machine easily raises also because the separation force is large enough. Due to the high lifting height of the bucket, the loader can load high semitrailers with beads.

Dimensions

The loader "Amkodor 342B", the technical characteristics of which are discussed in this article, has relatively small own sizes, despite its simply outstanding functional parameters.

• Total length (the knives of the main bucket are taken into account) - 7500 mm.
• The width of the machine is 2500 mm.
• Height from the lower edge of the tread to the driver's cab roof is 3450 mm.
• The height from the lower point of the tread to the flashing beacon is 3500 mm.

On the basis of these data, it can be concluded unambiguously that, in comparison with other similar models having similar performance characteristics, the Amkodor 342B is very compact. This is its undeniable advantage, since this loader can easily be placed even in a very small garage or box.

The total operating weight of the machine is 11,500 kg - an impressive enough figure, but this mass is quite logical, since the truck has high productivity and a specific design.

Mechanisms of running gear

As in the maintenance of any other equipment, before you start repairing it ("Amkodor 342B" sometimes fails), you should study its performance in detail.

The loader is equipped with a sufficiently reliable gearbox. At the same time her work is endowed with a certain specificity. For example, moving forward can be done with four speeds. In the first gear the car moves forward at a speed of 6.6 km / h, in the second gear - 12.2 km / h, on the third - 22.6 km / h, on the fourth - 37 km / h.

Moving backwards can also occur at the first and second speeds:

• In the first transfer - 6.9 km / h.
• In the second gear - 22.3 km / h.

The machine design provides for the presence of a differential of increased friction. It is he who makes it possible to cross the terrain without problems. As practice has shown, even strong mud does not represent any serious obstacle for this loader.

Also, the secret of excellent cross-country ability is an aggressive and very deep protector, allowing the wheels to easily engage even with liquid mud.

Transmission

In the loader hydromechanical transmission is used. It is she who adjusts the engine torque in automatic mode. Specially mounted sensors send the required signals to the installed control unit, which in turn controls the fuel supply for the normal operation of the machine.

The truck is directly controlled using a hydraulic booster. The hydraulic system of the machine has a priority valve, which makes the process of turning the steering wheel easy, simple, requiring no greater physical effort on the part of the driver.

Steering

This mechanism is completed with the following components:

• Articulated frame.
• Hydraulic drive with feedback.
• Emergency pump.

Loader wheels are steel wheels with rubber tires of standard size for tractors 21,3-24. Directly at the factory, the machine is equipped with very reliable tires that have proven themselves in the process of use.

Driving cab

The cabin is rather small in size, although even with such small dimensions it is quite comfortable and comfortable in it. In many ways, this is due to the fact that the driver's seat and all the controls of the engineer-engineers are located in accordance with the requirements of ergonomics.

The chair is easily adjustable in height, which allows you to use the machine for a person with any height. Outside, the cabin is equipped with a large number of different lighting devices that make it possible to operate the loader at any time of the day and even in conditions of severe fogging. Very convenient and the fact that the rear view mirror allows you to consider everything that happens behind your back, since it has a sufficiently large viewing angle.

Braking system

Brakes deserve special attention. "Amkodor 342B" is equipped with a disc brake system, which is located in the hubs of the running wheels. Directly inside these hubs is an oil bath, and this, in turn, allows increasing the life of the use of brake elements. Oil quickly removes heat from all rubbing elements of the braking system and does not allow them to overheat and prematurely fail.

The brakes are activated by a hydraulic drive, which is separate, since each machine bridge has its own drive device.

Also, the forklift has a special parking brake. It is made in the form of a single disk and dry. Its machine operator operates using a mechanical drive consisting of a rigid spring connected to the lever in the cabin with a steel cable. However, disinhibition performs a hydraulic drive. Manually this is extremely difficult.

Motor

"Amkodor 342B", the management of which, as already mentioned above, does not cause any special difficulties, is equipped with a diesel engine D-260.1. The motor itself is six-row, the shaft completes a full cycle of its rotation in four strokes.

The engine is cooled using a heat transfer fluid. A variant of passive cooling is also provided. In stock gas turbine pressurization.

Technical parameters of the motor:

• The combustion chamber has a volume of 7.12 liters.
• The working cylinder is 110 mm in diameter.
• The piston moves to 125 mm.
• The compression ratio is 16.
• The fuel consumption is 162 g / l. from. at one o'clock.
• The maximum power rating for normal operation is 155 hp. from.
• The crankshaft rotates at a frequency of 2100 rpm.
• The maximum torque is 622 Nm.
• The total weight is 700 kg.
• Oil consumption - 1,1% in relation to consumption of fuel.

The engine itself is made of high-strength materials. This explains the fact that the motor can withstand the great pressure that is present in the main lubrication system:

• The rated speed is from 0.28 to 0.45 MPa.
• The minimum speed is 0.1 MPa.

In general, the engine "Amkodor 342B" has a sufficiently large service life, since it is designed for operation in very severe, almost extreme conditions.

Containers for fuel and working fluids

The main loader bucket operates in strict accordance with the hydraulic cycles specified by the manufacturer:

• The bucket rises in 5.6 s.
• Tipping the bucket (unloading) - 1,2 s.
• The time to lower the bucket is 3.3 seconds.

The high performance of the machine is provided by precisely these characteristics. "Amkodor 342B" is considered a commercial (professional) technique.

The fuel tank has a volume of 215 liters, which allows frequent refueling of the machine. The hydraulic system requires 110 liters of hydraulic fluid.

Variants of replaceable attachments

In case of registration of a special, individual order, the loader can be equipped without any problems with such universal load - handling devices :

• A bucket that can have a different standard capacity (from 1.5 to 3 cubic meters).
• Crane boom for working with small loads.
• Jaw-catching.
• An arrow of an elongated type.
• Capture under the name "paw".
• Loading forks.
• Stoogometately.
• Dumps of different kinds.

Price

The loader "Amkodor 342В", technical characteristics of which are at a very high level, has a cost in its basic configuration in the range of 2.1-2.3 million rubles. Having paid this amount, the consumer receives a multifunctional, durable, high-performance technique that can replace several machines at once and last for a long period of time, providing an adequate level of safety for operating personnel.

If such an amount is not available to the buyer, it is worth paying attention to the already used truck of this type, which can be purchased for 1.5 million. The final cost will depend directly on what kind of equipment on the machine will be installed before delivery to the buyer.
