Top 5 Types of Tippers Used In Mining & Construction

Standard tippers function on hydraulic systems to generate power for lifting tasks. Typically, this tipper has a loading capacity of up to 10-15 tons & can also handle loads of up to 30-40 tons.

Semi-trailer end tippers majorly haul bulk materials like sand, gravel, etc. With a trailer and rear dump body at the back, they can handle heavier loads than regular tippers.

Side dump trucks unload materials sideways from the dump box, which is ideal for road construction. Unlike vertical dumps, they tilt on both sides for efficient unloading.

Dumper/haul trucks are common in construction and mining, moving materials like coal and sand. With up to a 400-ton loading capacity and large wheels, they excel at heavy-duty tasks.

Belly Tippers, also known as bottom dump trucks, work efficiently for laying materials in rows. It can carry materials up to 28 tons and easily operate in reverse.
