The CM22-02 garbage truck, built at the KDM plant in Smolensk, rides on a Shacman SX32586V384 chassis. This marks the second generation of the CM22 line, following an earlier version based on the MAZ platform. The truck is purpose-built to collect and dispose of household, food, and construction waste and is capable of moving waste across long distances to landfills or recycling facilities.
Dimensions of the CM22-02 measure 10,150 by 2,550 by 3,900 millimeters. Power comes from a 430 horsepower Weichai engine compliant with Euro-5 emissions standards. The vehicle supports a minimum waste payload of 11,500 kilograms. Its spherical storage hopper holds 22.8 cubic meters, while the loading bunker provides an additional 2.3 cubic meters. A single container is emptied in 10 seconds, the press cycle runs in 22 seconds, and the pressing force reaches 32,000 kilograms-force.
Following the withdrawal of some European manufacturers from the Russian market, the plant has been actively expanding its lineup of garbage trucks on Chinese chassis, a move described by Olga Solovieva, the general manager of KDM Plant LLC, as part of a broader strategy to maintain capacity and service levels in the domestic waste management sector.
