For friends who want to buy a semi-trailer, you need to understand a few questions before buying a semi-trailer. Consider these questions before buying a car. Here are four questions that need to be considered, hoping to be helpful to friends who buy cars.
- What kind of goods are you pulling? Different types of trailers also pull different goods. What kind of semi-trailer should be used for different goods.
- How many tons are you pulling? Tell us the weight of your usual cargo so that you can choose the specific configuration of the car. For example, light? Standard? Or heavy?
- What road do you take? The usual driving conditions must be determined. This is very important for choosing what kind of tire configuration.
- How much money do you spend? In the end, you will definitely have to pass the money test. Determine how much money you can spend to buy a semi-trailer.
Here are two examples to illustrate how to choose a car:
- Question: I work on a construction site, mainly pulling heavy machinery to transfer, all of which are excavators and the like, and occasionally there are large shovels, but none of them exceed 40T. Generally, they are short-distance, but there are also situations where you need to go on the highway. I have no idea how much I will spend on a car, but I have to spend what I should spend. I also need to compare and choose a good quality one.
Answer: Heavy-duty low-beds are used to pull construction machinery on construction sites, but heavy-duty low-beds have concave beams (also known as high-low-high) and straight beams (high-low plates), as well as two-axle, three-axle, and even axis lines. Because it is “mainly used for transfer”, I choose a two-axle one. Because it “occasionally goes on the highway”, I still want a two-axle concave beam (high-low-high) semi-trailer. Because the highway involves super-height problems, the lower the cargo surface, the more advantageous it is. Finally, the model came out – a two-axle concave beam heavy-duty low-bed! - Question: I mainly pull special line distribution, usually 35T, occasionally high points do not exceed 40T, the volume is not very large, about 50 cubic meters, the special line conditions are good and all are high-speed. What model can I choose if I want a higher cost-effectiveness?
Answer: You can use a container semi-trailer, a closed box semi-trailer, and a warehouse semi-trailer for special lines. Generally, if the cargo does not exceed the ton or width, and most of the cargo is bulk cargo, you can choose any of the three types. If you want a “higher cost performance”, you have to choose a semi-trailer. If the length is 13 meters, the container semi-trailer with the container and the trailer costs about 130,000 yuan, the closed box semi-trailer costs about 120,000 yuan, and the 13-meter-long and 2.4-meter-high semi-trailer with tarpaulin accessories costs 100,000 yuan! The model is released – the semi-trailer.
Postscript:
See, isn’t it more accurate to choose the trailer model in this way? If there are still drivers who are not clear about the characteristics of the cargo or the semi-trailer, you can ask friends around you who have experience in driving semi-trailers, or check relevant information.
