DFH 8x4 38 m³ Pneumatic Bulk Feed Truck

This DFH 8x4 truck carries a 38 m³ tank for low-density flour, feed, grain and selected granular materials. The body is made from 304 food-grade stainless steel and uses partitions to keep separate loads apart. Its pneumatic discharge arrangement provides an alternative to auger-based transfer where the receiving installation is equipped for air-assisted powder handling.

Unloading equipment includes a food-grade screw compressor with a dedicated cooling system, a 4 m hose and an aluminum-alloy external air-supply valve. Discharge pressure is 0.2 MPa. Inside the tank, high-angle cones work with a fluidizing device. A bent outlet pipe incorporates an anti-clogging device and an inspection window, allowing the discharge point to be observed during transfer. Large manholes provide internal access, and washout equipment can be added for cleaning between cargoes.

The four-axle chassis uses a Yuchai 350 hp diesel engine and a FAST manual gearbox. It has 11.00R20 18PR radial steel tires and a 2,000 + 2,800 + 1,400 mm wheelbase. Overall dimensions are 10,750 × 2,550 × 3,980 mm, with a curb weight of 13,000 kg. For mills, farms and powder-handling facilities, the compartment arrangement and unloading connection can be selected around the material and receiving process rather than relying on one cargo layout for every route.
