Jul. 29, 2021

Since the advent of lightweight trailers, it has become the best-selling trailer today and the best transport vehicle for long-distance transportation. So, what is the difference between a lightweight trailer and an ordinary semi-trailer?

Compared with the ordinary semi-trailer, the lightweight semi-trailer has a great change in weight. Its weight is very light, but its bearing capacity has not changed on the original basis, so that it can bear the weight better. Lightweight trailers use high-strength steel to reduce their own weight. Compared with ordinary trailers, high-strength steel trailers are lighter in weight. High-strength steel imported from Sweden is used to optimize the design of semi-trailers. Without changing the carrying capacity of the semi-trailer, the weight of the semi-trailer is reduced by more than 1, 3 tons , Can effectively improve the efficiency of the vehicle.

Lightweight trailers can be lightened from the following aspects:

Reduce the thickness of the board. For this point, use the steel with the high marks. High-standard steel, high strength, good toughness and fatigue resistance.

Reduce the weight of the rear axle. The axle and suspension are now close to two tons, and only light axles, disc brakes, 4 leaf springs, new lugs, tubeless tires, and single tires are all effective methods.

Change suspension. Airbag suspension can be used, which is less applied.

Reduce the weight of accessories. Reduce the weight of bumpers, side protective nets, net-type spare tire racks, tool boxes, tarpaulin racks, etc.

There is also the use of a suspended rear axle, which is the last bridge that everyone knows can be raised when not in use.

The transportation efficiency of lightweight trailers can be increased by 30-50%, costs can be reduced by 30-40%, and fuel consumption can be reduced by 20-30%. More importantly, lightweight trailers can also promote the organization of my country's logistics to a certain extent, and provide better help to the sustainable development of the economy.

Lightweight trailers, as the name suggests, are much lighter than ordinary trailers, but there is no difference in the carrying capacity of lightweight trailers, which can better carry goods. Therefore, lightweight trailers are also widely used in the industry. Compared with ordinary trailers, lightweight trailers are of the same size and lighter than 15% in weight.

Lightweight trailers are mainly reflected in the following points:

1. There is also the use of a suspended rear axle, which is the last bridge that everyone knows can be improved when not in use.

2. Lightweight trailers use high-strength and thick steel, which reduces the overall weight of the car body. This kind of high-strength standard steel has high strength, good toughness and fatigue resistance.

3. Reduce the weight of the rear axle. The axle and suspension are now close to two tons. Only a light axle, disc brakes, 4 leaf springs, new lugs, tubeless tires, single tires, etc. are all effective methods.

4. Reduce the weight of accessories: reduce the weight of bumpers, side protective nets, mesh spare tire racks, tool boxes, tarpaulin racks, etc.

5. Variable suspension: Airbag suspension is sufficient, which is less applied.
