Structure Construction. Combines the use of robotic welding on up to 90 percent of the 815F Series 2 with castings in several areas to increase strength by helping spread the loads and reduce the number of parts. This provides highly consistent welds with deep plate penetration and excellent plate fusion. The benefits are increased durability and fatigue strength. The computer controlled machining ensures the alignment of pin bore, axle pad, cab mount and transmission/engine components. Box Section Engine Frame. Designed to resist twisting and torsional forces, the box section engine end...

Wheel Design. Gives the operator fourwheel width coverage in just two passes with front and rear wheel tracking that eliminates gaps and overlaps. Chevron Tamping Wheel Tip Design.
