Lowboy trailer has many different names in different countries around the world, such as RGN trailer, detachable gooseneck trailer, folding gooseneck lowboy trailers, hydraulic low bed trailer, removable gooseneck trailer, front loading rgn lowboy trailer, and military lowboy trailer for sale. The detachable gooseneck lowboy trailer is also called the rgn lowboy trailer, which is a vehicle used to carry heavy-duty cargo. There are two front loading and unloading methods, folding gooseneck lowboy trailer and split detachable gooseneck trailer.
The hydraulic gooseneck lowboy semi-trailer can be customized with various models according to the needs. TITAN can make the 2/3/4 axles detachable gooseneck lowboy trailers and 3 lines 6 axles heavy duty rgn lowboy trailer, with the capacity of 60/80/100/120/150 ton. To meet your transport needs and your local regulations.
The structural composition is basically composed of traction system, transmission system, alignment adjustment system and locking system. The RGN trailer is mainly separated or hooked by manually operating the hydraulic device mounted on the goose head, so as to reach the construction machinery from the front of the trailer. This kind of vehicle is mainly suitable for the transportation of large construction machinery with small climbing ability. Of course, construction machinery with a large ladder angle can also be transported. It solves the shortcomings of the current ladder slope angle is too large and poor passability existing in the rear loading and unloading of the lowbed trailer.
1. Strong carrying capacity
Most of this type of trailers have large tonnage, so the body is mostly designed with an arched cargo bed, and the longitudinal beams are mostly multi-longitudinal high-strength steel structures, which reduces the weight and improves the carrying capacity.
TITAN lowboy trailer main beam of TITAN is made of HG60 high-strength structural steel. The yield strength of HG60 steel is ≥ 620MPa, which is more durable and stronger than ordinary steel. Its bearing capacity is 5 times of that of Q345 steel trailer. TITAN lowboy trailer adopts reinforced the gooseneck and upper and lower plate by double layer.
2. The effective length of the cargo bed is long
Because this type of model eliminates the rear ladder, the bearing surface can be lengthened, and because the construction machinery does not go from the rear, the slope angle in front of the bridge can be appropriately increased, so that the bearing surface can be lengthened. The length of the low flat cargo table with a ladder at the end is longer, which can effectively load more loads, indirectly improve the loading efficiency, and create greater benefits for users.
3. Low center of gravity and good stability.
Due to the low ground clearance and low longitudinal beam height of this kind of vehicle, the load-bearing surface is 300-400mm lower than that of the normal concave-center removable lowboy semi-trailer, thereby effectively reducing the height of the center of gravity of the loaded goods and improving the stability during transportation.
TITAN Oilfield trailers bottom plate, Other suppliers usually use 3 or 4 mm bottom plate, But TITAN adopt 5 mm thick bottom plate, It’s more durable and won’t be deformed.
4. Good performance
The cargo bed load-bearing surface of the trailer can be adjusted to the ground height by a hydraulic device as needed, and when it passes through culverts or bumpy roads, the cargo bed load-bearing surface can be lowered or raised to improve its passing performance.
5. Easy maintenance
Because the bearing surface can be raised and lowered, the tires on a bridge can be grounded, and other tires can be safely and conveniently replaced or other maintenance work without detaching.
6. Easy operation
The lifting operation handle of the bearing surface mostly adopts the centralized electric control device, rather than the traditional handle to control the operation, so that the operation interface is more convenient.
TITAN hydraulic system has undergone five major system upgrades in the ten-year production process, and now the hydraulic system has very good stability and stability The customer only needs regular maintenance. It can be used for ten years.
Removable gooseneck lowbed trailers are of many types. However, most of these removable gooseneck’s operation principles are the same. When detaching your gooseneck trailer, here is a standard procedure to follow.
Step 1: Remove the locating pin as well as the air tube and the electric wire connections
Step 2: Lower the cargo bed once all the linkages have been securely removed
Step 3: Drive off the truck together with the gooseneck away
Step 4: Once the truck has been driven off, loading can now take place comfortably from the front of the trailer bed.
Securing the Cargo in Place for Transportation – Once the cargo has been loaded on the trailer bed, it should be safely secured in place ready for transportation. In that case, you should ensure to fix the cargo by ropes, nets, chains.
Important Considerations
1. Should the trailer assembly approach a low overhead obstruction such as a bridge, your operator should lower the assembly moderately by simply releasing the trailers’ hydraulic rams. On the other hand, when approaching a raised road obstruction like an exposed railroad track, the compression blocks and safety hooks can be let loose and then extend the hydraulic rams to a desired position for a slow speed over a short distance in these scenarios.
2. When there is a need to detach the gooseneck from the tractor to keep the gooseneck still attached to the trailer frame. Engage the safety hook with pins to hold the gooseneck in position and prevent it from falling in a forward direction.
