Peterbilt Displayed Technological Advancements At World of Concrete

Peterbilt Motors Company displayed its lineup of vocational vehicles for the concrete industry at World of Concrete in Las Vegas, Nevada, held in January of this year.

World of Concrete (WOC) has been serving the global concrete & masonry construction industries for 49 years and provides opportunities to educate and connect industry professionals with resources and intelligence to make better informed business decisions.

Attendees visiting booth #C5148 in the Central Hall during the show at the Las Vegas Convention Center were able to see Peterbilt’s newest technological advancements, demonstrated on three customer trucks on display. These included a Peterbilt Model 567 with mixer body from Con-Tech, a Model 520 with a Concrete pumper from Alliance and a Model 548 with mixer body from Continental.

Peterbilt trucks come standard with VMUX electrical architecture that allows for quick and reliable body integration. This simplifies customization for customer needs in a manner that is consistent across all Peterbilt truck models. These trucks are powered by PACCAR MX-11 and PX-9 engines with class-leading performance, reliability and fuel economy.

In addition to the booth display, Peterbilt was excited to partner with Con-Tech and key suppliers, and donated a Model 567 paired with a bridge formula mixer to Concrete Industry Management’s (CIMs) 2023 auction. Auction proceeds benefitted CIM degree programs. SP
