Rokbak RA40 Haulers Drive Productivity at Alberta Pit

Rate this post

Calgary Rolling Mix Concrete is reporting strong performance gains after adding three RA40 articulated haulers from Rokbak to its high-output Carseland Pit operation in Alberta, Canada.

The fleet was supplied by Headwater Equipment, Rokbak’s regional dealer, as part of a strategy focused on reliability, fuel efficiency and robust aftermarket support. The site produces around half a million tonnes of sand and gravel annually for concrete applications ranging from foundations to pavements.

Two RA40 units entered service in 2023, with a third delivered in 2025. Each 41.9-tonne-capacity hauler moves material across short but intensive 0.75–1 km haul routes. The machines feature a 66-degree dump angle and dual-slope tail chute to accelerate material discharge, while their high-strength steel bodies are designed for durability in tough pit conditions.

Operator feedback has highlighted fuel savings, cab comfort, visibility and the integrated auto-lube system as key benefits. The RA40’s automatic transmission, advanced braking systems and fuel-efficient drivetrain support both productivity and lower operating costs, while meeting global emissions standards.

To maximise uptime, Rolling Mix Concrete has introduced a fleet rotation plan, replacing one hauler every three years at around 6,000 operating hours to maintain a modern, low-hour fleet.

Headwater Equipment provides on-site maintenance and parts support, ensuring minimal downtime. Company representatives say the combination of machine performance and dealer backing has made the RA40 a preferred choice as the operation continues to scale output at the Alberta pit.
