4-axle multifunctional FLOOR stepdeck trailer
Pacton has recently delivered a 4-axle FLOOR stepdeck trailer of the type FLUSDO 15-36HF2 to the Gebroeders Kok Company, situated in Bakkeveen. The customer required a trailer for a 4-axle truck, to be fitted with a crane of 80 ton metres. This combination is utilized for the loading and transportation of pontoons, cargo vessels, excavator mats etc. In addition, it can be used to transport earthmoving machines and material. The Pacton engineering team was presented with the gigantic challenge to provide the trailer with a variety of cargo securing systems, enabling the trailer to transport the various kinds of freight that it is designed to carry.
The trailer is extendable, adding 2.150mm to its length. This allows for a wheel housing to emerge and consequently makes it possible for machines and vehicles to be transported. An excavator trough, placed at the back of the trailer makes the trailer suitable to transport cranes as well. To simplify the transportation of such large equipment, a number of custom made options have been fitted such as a detachable intermediate table, widening consoles and a bevelled back and neck.
The four BPW (3 x 12 tonnes and 1 x 11 tonnes) axles with drum brakes ensure a total of 51 tonnes of Gross Vehicle Weight. The last two axles are fitted with a VSE steering system, whilst the front axle is realised as a pusher axle. This guarantees that the trailer is highly manoeuvrable , making it easy to be placed on even the tightest of building sites. Steering the trailer is simplified even further with an electronic controlled self tracking axle.
This trailer is utmost suitable for the transportation of heavy freight and large equipment, due to the custom made adjustments and options, such as in width extendable cameras and a long load support with various storage utilities, that were designed specifically for this trailer.
