Semitrailer tipper trailer chassis
With high-strength performance and a full steel chassis, its body was designed with a particular section that looks like an "i". And it will not cause an uneven surface because the robots perform all welding processes.
It can respond flexibly to distortion and springing by reinforcing with a center beam. Connecting brackets on the chassis side beams will reduce stress by distributing the forces exerted by road conditions on the track group.
With solid road adaptability, it can operate on many worse road surfaces.

King pin of semi-trailer tipper trailer
Complies with 94/20/EC instruction, and 2″ can be removed and installed from the bottom.
A king pin is a component of a semi-trailer dump trailer that connects it to the fifth wheel coupling on the tractor unit. It is a steel bolt that is inserted into the fifth wheel and secured with a locking mechanism. The king pin is attached to the front of the semi-trailer dump trailer and allows it to twist and turn while being towed by the tractor.
The kingpin is a critical component of the semi-trailer dump trailer and must be properly sized and rated for the weight of the trailer and its load. It is important to make sure that the kingpin is securely locked in the fifth wheel coupling and that the locking mechanism is functioning properly before operating the trailer.
Rear dump trailer axles
Axles are the structural components that support the weight of the trailer and its load. Semi-trailer dump trailers usually have 2/3/4/4/5/6 axles, depending on their size and capacity. The axles of Panda Mech rear dump trailers are from famous brands such as BPW and Fuwa, which have quality guarantee and longer service life.
Rear tipper trailer suspension
The suspension is divided into mechanical suspension and air suspension, and can also be used in a mixed manner. The suspension system connects the axles to the chassis and provides a smooth ride for the trailer and its load. It includes leaf springs, air bags, etc.
Semitrailer dump trailer electrical system
The electric lighting system of the rear tipper trailer is an important part of road safety at night, and its lighting system meets the demand of EEC standards. The system consists of side lights, a reflector and a 2*7 pin socket assembly.
Painting and surface protection of semi-trailer tipper trailers
The frame must be sandblasted and surface hardened with a fully automatic clamping system. Then comes the twice construction of epoxy resin primers, and after the last two sprays, the code rll is baked at 60 and 80 degrees, making the entire surface more durable, better protected and more beautiful.
Optional
Tarpaulin
Some rear dump trailers have tarpaulins, depending on the load being transported, to protect the cargo from inclement weather during transit.
