Shandong Nanou Automobile Co., Ltd. Overview of Semi-Trailers
A semi-trailer is a type of trailer that is commonly used for transporting goods. It is typically composed of two main components: a towing vehicle (tractor) and the trailer itself. Here’s a detailed breakdown:
- Structure Components
Tractor: This is usually a heavy-duty truck that provides the power to pull the semi-trailer. The front part contains the driver’s cabin, while the rear connects to the trailer.
Trailer: This is the cargo-carrying part that has no front axle. It typically has wheels at the back and connects to the tractor through a fifth wheel coupling. - Main Types
Flatbed Semi-Trailer: Designed for transporting large and heavy items like machinery and construction materials.
Refrigerated Semi-Trailer: Equipped with a cooling system, suitable for transporting perishable goods or pharmaceuticals.
