Fuel Efficiency Analysis

Fuel consumption was evaluated across mixed terrain (40% highway, 40% graded haul roads, 20% urban/construction site maneuvering) using standardized load cycles (32-ton payload average).

Operating Condition Avg. Fuel Consumption Notes
Highway (Loaded, 70 km/h) 28–30 L/100 km Aerodynamic drag optimized at steady state
Graded Haul Roads (8–12% incline) 34–38 L/100 km Torque demand increases under load
Idle & Site Operations 2.2–2.8 L/h Engine idling with PTO disengaged
Composite Cycle (Weighted) 31.5 L/100 km Based on 1,200-hour field dataset

The Weichai WD615 engine demonstrates robust fuel stability under variable loads. Units retrofitted with calibrated ECM updates show up to 4.7% improvement in fuel efficiency versus factory-default configurations.


Load Capacity & Structural Performance

Tyler trucks equipped with the HW19710 transmission and dual 13T rear axles are engineered for sustained operation at or near maximum GVW. Key performance metrics:

  • Maximum Payload Capacity: 32,000–33,000 kg (70,760–72,750 lbs), depending on body configuration
  • Frame Rail Construction: High-tensile steel (Q345), 8mm thickness, reinforced at suspension mounts
  • Suspension Type: Multi-leaf parabolic spring (front), multi-leaf tandem with walking beam (rear)
  • Dump Body Compatibility: Up to 20 m³ volumetric capacity (aggregate density ~1.6 t/m³)

Field data indicates 92% of units maintain structural integrity beyond 600,000 km when maintained per OEM intervals. Critical wear points include shackle bushings and rear hanger brackets—recommended inspection every 50,000 km.


Operational Recommendations

  1. Transmission Use: The HW19710 requires disciplined shifting technique. Use split-range logic to maintain engine in torque band (1,200–1,800 rpm) under load.
  2. Tire Maintenance: 12.00R20 tires must be inflated to 850 kPa (123 psi) for rated load. Under-inflation leads to rapid shoulder wear and casing degradation.
  3. Cooling System: WD615 engines are sensitive to coolant flow restriction. Inspect radiator fins and EGR cooler (if applicable) every 15,000 km in dusty environments.
  4. Fuel Quality: Use diesel with ≤10 ppm sulfur and water separation. Poor fuel accelerates injector wear in common-rail variants.

Conclusion

Tyler used trucks with Weichai WD615 engines and HW19710 transmissions represent a cost-effective solution for mid-tier construction fleets requiring high payload capacity and proven mechanical durability. With average fuel consumption under 32 L/100 km and GVW ratings up to 40T, these units are suitable for aggregate haulage, quarry operations, and regional heavy transport. Proper maintenance protocols significantly extend service life beyond 800,000 km.
