Tipping Trailer
A tipping semi-trailer is a type of semi-trailer designed for transporting loose materials such as sand, gravel, coal, or construction debris. The key feature of a tipper trailer is its ability to tip to unload the materials it carries.
Types of Tipping Trailers:
-
Rear Tipping: The trailer tips backward, unloading from the rear.
-
Side Tipping: The trailer tips to the side, unloading materials in one or both directions.
-
Three-Way Tipping: The trailer can tip to both sides and the rear to unload materials.
Capacity: The size and capacity of a tipper semi-trailer can vary widely depending on its design and the materials it is intended to carry. Armatech can produce U-type or Half-Pipe model tipping semi-trailers. Our tipping semi-trailers are manufactured using HB450 or Hardox TUF500 materials, with thicknesses ranging from 4 mm to 10 mm. Our tipping trailers are equipped with BPW or SAF axles, air or mechanical suspension, and EBS braking systems.
Applications:
Construction and Demolition
-
Material Transport: Tipping trailers are widely used in the construction industry to transport loose materials such as sand, gravel, soil, and crushed stone.
-
Debris Removal: They are also used to haul debris from construction or demolition sites, where easy unloading is essential.
Mining and Quarrying
-
Bulk Material Transport: In mining and quarry operations, tipper trailers are ideal for transporting heavy, loose materials such as ores, aggregates, and minerals.
-
Dumping Over Rough Terrain: The ability to dump materials from a height makes these trailers particularly useful in mines and quarries.
Agriculture
-
Grain and Fertilizer Transport: Tipping semi-trailers are commonly used to transport bulk agricultural products such as grains, fertilizers, and animal feed.
-
Crop Residue Transport: They can also carry plant residues or other agricultural by-products for disposal or redistribution.
Landscaping
-
Mulch, Soil, and Rock Transport: Landscaping companies use tipping trailers to transport and unload large quantities of mulch, soil, rocks, and other materials to job sites.
-
Garden Waste Disposal: These trailers are also suitable for transporting green waste and other biodegradable materials.
