Medium Axle Flatbed Transporter

Recently, in the domestic freight industry, the center-mounted shaft flatbed transport vehicle has aroused the attention of everyone. Why is that? Because its trains are 20 meters long and carry a lot of cargo. In Europe, mid-axle vehicles have been used for many years and can be seen everywhere. At present, what we have seen most in China is the car with the middle axle and the closed boxcar with the middle axle.

Thanks to the structural advantage, with the same overall length, the turning radius of the mid-axle train is smaller than that of the semitrailer, so the 20-meter mid-axle train can pass through the channel circle item


In order to maximize the cargo load, the gap between the main vehicle and the trailer of the mid-mounted axle flatbed truck is designed by the manufacturer to be very small, and the tires with a small flat ratio are used to make the container height of the trailer very low. However, in common semi-trailer trains, the gap between tractors and trailers is large, resulting in the waste of space resources. The advantage of the total length of 20 meters, combined with the design of maximizing the cargo capacity of the container, the cargo capacity of the middle axle of the flat plate is more obvious than that of the semi-trailer.

It is understood that the total length of the flat-plate mid-axle train is 20 meters, and the container length (about 9.6 meters for the main vehicle + 7 meters for the trailer) can be 16.6 meters. Compared with the common 13-meter semi-trailer, the container carrying length can be 3.6 meters or so more, which has obvious advantages in carrying cargo. That's 50 cubic meters more than the usual 13-meter semitrailer, and only 15 cubic meters less than the 17.5-meter slab. As the country to illegal over-limit transport, 17.5 meters of the governance of the board more stringent, a lot of requirements for the carrying side of the user, gradually began to pay attention to the center of the shaft flatbed transport vehicle.

However, future logistics transport will be specialized transport, specialized transport is behind the car. Special car, in fact behind the standardized transport, standardized transport will bring efficiency and low cost. As we all know, refrigerated vehicles are engaged in refrigerated transport, tank trucks are engaged in liquid transport, the center shaft flat plate transport vehicles according to the principle should also be engaged in the flat plate transport field, for some equipment or wood and other large goods transport. The central axle trailer is connected with the tractor through the traction connection mechanism. The connection structure mainly plays the role of traction, and the main load is carried by the central axle trailer itself. In addition, in order to ensure the running stability and improve the load, the medium axle trailer mostly USES small size tires to reduce the center of gravity of the vehicle, so the passage of the medium axle trailer will be affected. The reason for the structure is doomed to its stability, passing than the common semi-trailer. The real flatbed transportation field will also be the world of flatbed trucks and semitrailers, with the mid-axle flatbed transporters just a substitute. In the field of flatbed transport, the mid-mounted axle flatbed transport vehicle may be the exclusive transport market, but will not become the main force.
