The Hercules EXO from Schlam is a 240 t class iron ore specific dump body that is 20 % lighter than the company ' s already class-leading Hercules . Compared with heavy-duty products on the market that use liner packages , the payload potential of the Hercules EXO is far more significant . It also does not require the labour-intensive wear plate replacement events needed to achieve target body life . Overall , a complete redesign and new material selection , including Hardox ® 500 Tuf steel from Swedish steelmaker SSAB , have resulted in a 100 % increase in service life . The EXO project was completed in close consultation with Schlam ’ s customers , including BHP . https :// schlam . com /
