How it differs
Difference from a conventional low-loader: better manoeuvrability and less tyre scrub, with a more complex system

Buildable configurations
What can be specified on this product, and what each choice changes. Combinations are confirmed by engineering against your axle-load limits and destination regulations before they are quoted.
Axle Layout
Multi-axle Configuration
Additional axle lines increase capacity and spread wheel loads
Best for: super-heavy cargo and strict axle-load routes
If omitted: fewer axle lines improve agility and reduce tare weight, but lower total capacity and pavement-load control.
On our sample Reference Payload 34,500–67,000 kg
Changes: Reference Payload, Reference Tare Weight, Technical Gross Trailer Mass, Axle-group Load, Number of Axles, Number of Tyres, Steering Axle System
Confirmed at inquiry: Confirm payload, legal axle loads, tyres, road class and tractor fifth-wheel load
Lateral Deck Extension
Width-expandable Deck
Laterally extendable deck increases support width for wide machinery
Best for: tracked equipment, wide machines and irregular project cargo
If omitted: standard width is lighter and simpler for road permits, but provides less support and stability for wide loads.
On our sample Loading Deck Width 3,150–3,200 mm
Changes: Loading Deck Width, Reference Tare Weight, Extension Arrangement
Confirmed at inquiry: Provide cargo dimensions, point loads, extension cases, turning radius and route envelope

What you can verify before ordering
The plant is ours
Ask for a live walk-through of the welding line, the blasting chamber and the paint booth on the day you call. A trading company cannot do this on request.
Engineers answer, not a sales desk
Configuration questions are answered by the engineering team. If an answer needs a calculation, you get the calculation.
Inspection records match the unit
Final vehicle or assembly inspection is recorded against the unit identification, so the report can be matched to the product that arrives.
Drawings are kept on file
The approved general arrangement drawing is archived against your chassis number for the life of the unit, which is what makes a spare part orderable years later.
Export paperwork is in house
Invoice, origin certificate, chassis number list and test certificates are issued by our own export desk, so a correction takes hours rather than a week.
Repeat batches stay identical
A follow-on order is built from the drawing you already approved, so parts interchange across your fleet instead of nearly fitting.
Other variants in this category
Same platform, different body or duty. Worth comparing before you settle on one.
Send your drawing or your load case
A sales engineer confirms the specification for this product against your route, axle-load limits and destination regulations, then returns a drawing and a delivered price.
