Rokbak focuses on what brings value to its customers. The company stays in constant contact with customers and dealer partners to learn their needs and places those needs at the center of its operations. By designing and manufacturing only haulers, Rokbak concentrates on being an expert in its field.
Uptime ranks among customers’ top priorities. When a truck stops working, it stops earning money, lowers return on investment and raises total cost of ownership. Rokbak builds reliability and durability into its articulated haulers, giving them high physical availability. The company’s RA30 and RA40 trucks consistently report very low levels of warranty claims, demonstrating robustness and minimal faults.
From a design perspective, Rokbak bases its haulers on robust structures that engineers design and thoroughly test for intended duty cycles. The company achieves long-term durability through a whole‑machine approach that treats structural integrity as how the entire truck performs in extreme conditions. Rokbak carefully selects suppliers and integrates proven components such as engines, gearboxes, axles and hydraulic systems that perform in challenging environments, and the company validates those components as part of the complete truck to ensure longevity and consistent performance.
Rokbak emphasizes component integration because truck performance depends on how systems work together. Fuel efficiency, productivity and durability all reflect the interaction of different elements. Because fuel represents one of customers’ highest costs and directly affects profitability, Rokbak considers fuel efficiency in every design decision without compromising durability or productivity.
Rokbak haulers deliver some of the lowest fuel consumption rates on the market, which lowers operational costs for customers.
“One thing I always emphasise to people is that a truck is only as productive as the care it receives,” the company says. Rokbak stresses that aftermarket preparation, maintenance planning and correct operation are critical. Trained personnel must maintain trucks using the right tools and verified spare parts, supported by dealers and the OEM. Routine tasks such as keeping fluids replenished, greasing components and ensuring clean filters prolong component life.
By keeping trucks productive longer and reducing unplanned downtime, customers move more material at lower operational cost, improving margins. Rokbak has extended maintenance intervals by using modern fluids and filtration systems to allow longer service periods for transmissions and hydraulics, which reduces scheduled downtime and maintenance costs. For example, the company extended transmission service intervals from 2,000 to 4,000 hours on the RA30 and up to 6,000 hours on the RA40, and it applies 4,000‑hour hydraulic service intervals. Longer intervals also reduce maintenance material disposal, such as used filters and fluids, lowering environmental impact. The longer a truck can operate without scheduled stops, the more productive it becomes and the lower its lifecycle cost to the customer.
Rokbak designs its trucks to be easy to operate and maintain so operators can achieve optimal performance and productivity. If an operator does not know how to operate or maintain a machine properly, it will underperform and risk unscheduled downtime. Customers report that the RA30 and RA40 are straightforward and intuitive.
Rokbak builds trucks to operate in extreme environments, carry heavy payloads and handle challenging ground conditions. The company applies robust structures, proven drivelines, effective cooling systems and traction control tailored to articulated hauler applications. Rokbak trucks operate worldwide in quarries, mines and infrastructure projects, and the company maintains that correct specification, validated design and proper support ensure consistent performance in demanding environments.
