Learn more about us at Megins and discover the benefits of our vacuum loaders
What are Megin's hours and availability?
We are normally open on weekdays from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM, but we are usually available by phone even outside of business hours. If you are having problems with your dry or sludge vacuum, please don’t hesitate to call Bengt at +46 730 84 81 54 or email us at info@megins.se.
Do you carry replacement parts for all brands?
Yes, we have all the necessary replacement parts for all brands, whether it's a vacuum loader, a sludge vacuum, a flushing truck, or any other type of vacuum loader.
How much does a chassis replacement cost?
Replacing the chassis on a sludge vacuum truck or vacuum loader truck costs between 1 million and 1.5 million Swedish kronor, depending on the model, not including the cost of the new chassis. Megins typically performs chassis replacements at a fixed price, and the process takes about two months.
Why is Megin's vacuum and blower system the market leader?
Megins has worked closely with the JOB Group in Kinna to develop the best filtration system in the vacuum truck industry for our Heimdal vacuum loader trucks. We feature an innovative filter media, improved air channels, and a larger filter surface area (38.5 m²). The benefits of this are that customers experience significantly better suction and blowing performance, while filter and pump wear is reduced and fuel consumption is 20–30% lower.
How can Megins be cheaper than its competitors?
Our vacuum loaders are available in three models—Heimdal 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0—and having a standardized product line simplifies production at every stage. Megins does not compromise on quality, using components from the world’s leading suppliers, but the Heimdal becomes easier to build because we manufacture identical vacuum loaders time and time again.
Why can I load more material into a Heimdal vacuum loader?
We use the same steel thickness as our competitors—5 mm—but we have significantly fewer unnecessary steel components. A more efficient material design significantly reduces weight—for example, we use the subframe as a blow pipe between the pump and the tank. Additionally, we have a 50/50 weight distribution between the front and rear axles, allowing Megin’s vacuum loader trucks to utilize the full legal gross vehicle weight without compromising driving dynamics.
The Megin Heimdal 2.0 wet/vacuum loader has unbeatable suction and blowing power.
Heimdal 3.0 features a flexible arm on the tailgate—what our competitors call a “digging arm.”
Is there a Heimdal with a backhoe?
Megins’ Heimdal 3.0 vacuum loader has a flexible arm on the tailgate that some competitors refer to as a digging arm. While all Megins vacuum loaders can handle simple digging tasks, to be considered a true digging vacuum, an airflow of approximately 40,000 m³/h is required—something Megins cannot currently offer.
Can I see the load capacity of materials on a Heimdal?
Yes, you can see that both on the screen inside the cab and on the remote control. Megin’s vacuum truck continuously monitors the truck’s axle load and uses that information to calculate how much material has been sucked into the tank.
What is Megins' largest vacuum loader model?
Our vacuum trucks are built on chassis with three (bogie) or four axles (tridem). On a four-axle model, we can fit a 14-cubic-meter tank that, in Sweden, can legally carry up to 11,000 kg, with a weight distribution of nearly 50/50 between the front and rear axles. This is clearly the industry leader!
What materials can I vacuum with a Heimdal?
Megin's vacuum loaders are robustly built for continuous operation in truly demanding industrial environments, such as cement plants, paper mills, foundries, power plants, and more. In addition, the Heimdal vacuum loader can withstand wide temperature fluctuations ranging from -20°C to +50°C.
