What are the advantages of semi-trailer?

Semi-trailer is a heavy-duty transport vehicle, its main feature is that the axle is placed behind the center of gravity of the vehicle (when the vehicle is evenly loaded), and it is equipped with a coupling device that can transfer horizontal and vertical forces to the tractor. The semi-trailer is generally a three-axis semi-trailer, and its types are divided into eleven meters warehouse semi-trailer, thirteen meters warehouse semi-trailer, low plate semi-trailer and so on.

The semi-trailer is connected with the tractor through the traction pin and the traction seat, and is usually driven by the tractor. Compared with monomer vehicles, semi-trailers can improve the comprehensive economic benefits of road transport, transport efficiency can be increased by 30-50%, and the cost can be reduced by 30-40%. In addition, the use of semi-trailer can also promote the organization form of logistics in our country to a certain extent.

As an important means of transport, semi-trailer has many advantages, mainly including the following aspects:

Large carrying capacity: the carrying capacity of the semi-trailer is larger, which can effectively improve the transportation efficiency, reduce the number of transportation, and reduce the transportation cost.

Good economic performance: Compared with the monomer cargo vehicle with the same load, the transportation cost of semi-trailer is relatively low, the fuel consumption is less, and the economic performance is good.

The environmental performance is relatively good: due to the high transport efficiency of the semi-trailer, the number of vehicles can be reduced under the same transport volume, thereby reducing exhaust emissions and having less impact on the environment.

Flexible control: Compared with the full trailer, the semi-trailer is more flexible in control, and the turning radius is small, which is suitable for urban road transportation, short-distance transportation and other businesses.

Good cargo protection performance: the carriage structure of the semi-trailer is relatively firm, which can effectively protect the goods from external extrusion and impact, and ensure the safe transportation of the goods.

Wide range of application: semi-trailer is suitable for the transportation of a variety of goods, such as bulk goods, large goods, fresh goods, etc., can meet the needs of different customers.

In short, the semi-trailer has the advantages of large carrying capacity, good economic performance, relatively good environmental performance, flexible control, good cargo protection performance, wide application range, etc., is an important means of transport, and has been widely used in logistics, transportation and other fields.
