Dongfeng 6x4 15,700 L Milk Tank Truck with Cummins Engine

This Dongfeng milk tanker has a nominal 15,700 L milk tank on a 25,000 kg gross vehicle weight chassis. The rated payload is 15,065 kg. A three-compartment layout is optional, allowing operators to specify divided storage for collection work rather than using one undivided space for every load. The tank volume is not a permissible full milk load: actual filling must remain within the 15,065 kg rated payload and certified axle limits.

The milk tank is constructed from 304 food-grade stainless steel. A mirror-polished interior forms the milk-contact surface, and polyurethane foam provides the insulation layer. Transfer connections use food-safe piping with quick couplings. Manholes allow cleaning access; an optional clean-in-place system can be selected to match the cleaning routine at the collection or receiving facility.

Power comes from a Cummins 259 hp diesel engine paired with manual transmission. The 6x4 chassis has three axles, a 1,995 + 4,000 mm wheelbase and 295/80R22.5 18PR radial tires. With an overall length of 10,050 mm, width of 2,500 mm and height of 3,380 mm, the vehicle requires loading areas suited to these dimensions. Its intended work covers raw-milk collection from farms and onward delivery through collection stations to dairy processing plants.
