Bell B60E Features
The B60E articulated truck developed as a result of the Bell tradition of listening to you, our customers. You told us you were looking for a machine that would perform better than conventional haulage solutions in slippery and undulating conditions, but didn’t need the ‘go anywhere’ ability of a 3 axle 6×6 ADT. In response Bell has filled this conspicuous gap in the market with the B60E crossover solution.
By configuring the driveline to direct drive to all wheels, the Bell B60E can go places where conventional trucks can’t.
The B60E has been enthusiastically received, giving productivity during adverse weather conditions when other machines are unable to operate, and also tolerating less site maintenance, which has large cost and hassle implications for many job sites.
