Titan International, Inc recently introduced three new sizes to the Titan
Accelerated Change Technology (ACT) wheel line, a wheel technology
proved to reduce downtime associated with tire changes and rotations
by up to 50%.
The ACT wheel is now available in 33-, 35-, and 49-inch wheels,
featuring single-piece lock rings in addition to the 51-, 57- and 63-inch
sizes. Designed to fit nearly any rigid framed dump truck, the ACT wheel
is compatible with any brand of off-the-road tires, including Titan tyres.
The ACT wheel eliminates the need for the outside wheel to be removed
when changing the inner tyre. All the bolts stay on and there’s no need
to torque the wheel — whereas the standard wheel requires removing
both the inner and outer wheels and re-torqueing.
Titan also recently conducted a test that put the Titan ACT wheel headto-head against a standard wheel on a rigid dump truck in an Alabama
mine. The test demonstrated that a Cat 777G needing four inner dual
rotations or replacements per year, saving 1 hour and 10 minutes per
inner dual, and running approximately 1.5 additional cycles per every 1
hour, 10 minutes could mean more than $80,000 in additional coal
production per year, per truck.
