The company will unveil the P360 4x4, which is powered by a 360 horsepower six-cylinder engine.
Developed as a general-purpose stores truck for onsite use, the truck has a Scania Opticruise clutchless manual gearbox.
The P360 truck, which will be on display at AIMEX, has a 13-tonne payload capacity and offers a 10-year working life.
Scania mining services general manager Robert Taylor said the truck had been specified with a locally sourced flat-top tray with twist locks, as well as toolboxes, water tank and mine-spec lights.
"Like every Scania, the P360 4x4 has an all-steel cab that has been impact-tested to exceed the Swedish and European standards," he said.
"One of the benefits for mine customers is that all Scania trucks have an identical layout.
"So if you hop into the 4x4 after driving an 8x8 service vehicle or ANFO (ammonium nitrate/fuel oil) truck, the controls are all in the same place."
Scania's heavy-duty truck range also offers the G360 dump truck, which is delivered from Europe with the dump body attached ready for work.
The range also includes an 8x4 G400 flat-top complete with lifting arm. Designed for lifting and transporting machinery and heavy items from site to site, it can also be hitched to a dog trailer for extra capacity.
Scania will also be promoting the 8x4 G400 tilt tray, which has a large capacity load bed and hydraulic arm.
One of the company's heavy-haul R620 V8-powered vehicles, the truck can pull up to five trailers with a payload of up to 170 tonnes of ore.
It was recently tested at a gold mine in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, where it was rated at 200 tonnes gross combination mass, and successfully pulled four trailers and 140-tonnes of ore. Another success in the mining industry for the company is its Scania-Higer A30 mining bus, which seats up to 60 workers.
Scania said the mining bus was kitted out with full mine-specification safety equipment, and confirmed a mine site operator in north Western Australia already had more than 30 of the vehicles in service.
Taylor said Scania would be presenting a total transport solution for mining companies attending AIMEX.
The company also has a fly-in fly-out, remote area servicing program for maintenance and repairs on mine sites, and can also provide service parts where miners elect to carry out their own maintenance.
"This concept goes far beyond the supply of vehicle hardware and includes tailored specification per customer of a range of mine-friendly vehicles, as well as pre-delivery driver-efficiency instruction to ensure the vehicle is not only used safely, but also in the most efficient manner," Taylor added.
"For hard-working older vehicles, a preventative maintenance campaign ensures that uptime is not impacted by unexpected failures."
Scania Australia is based in Melbourne, while Scania Group has a global headquarters in Sweden.
The company will promote mine specification vehicles and services on Stand 5220 at AIMEX.
