Power Curtain - the body without support laths for fast and secure loading and unloading.

POWER CURTAIN

The body is built without support laths for fast and secure loading and unloading. The tarpaulin is equipped with loops for flexible rear load securing combined with comprehensive certification.

The standard tarpaulin used on the curtainsider is extremely smooth-running and so can be opened and closed quickly and easily using only one hand.

Equipment for through-loading trailers

The four-wing door portal on the front wall can also be opened even when there is minimal space between the truck and trailer

Sectioned portal on the front wall

Flexibility when accepting transport tasks. The four-swing door portal on the front wall can also be opened even when there is minimal space between the truck and trailer.

The spring-mounted bridge enables loading and unloading in one go

Bridge

The spring-loaded bridge can be folded down with minimal effort. The entire width of the body can be used, thanks to locking mechanisms directly in the corner stanchions.

Rear

Einfacher Zugang zur Ware mit der Doppelflügeltür

Double wing door

The anodised aluminium profile rear wall doors are lightweight, durable and corrosion-resistant.
The doors' profile construction means that they can be simply repaired in the event of damage.

The rubber bumpers protect the semi-trailer body when approaching the ramp

Standard rubber bumper

Various high-quality rubber bumper designs protect the rear when the semi-trailer is reversing up to a ramp.

The rubber bumpers prevent damage to the rear portal of the curtainsider semi-trailer

Roller corner bumper

Roller corner bumpers compensate for vertical motion during loading and unloading on the ramp. The rubber bumpers prevent damage to the rear portal, protecting the semi-trailer.

Roof

The lifting roof raises the side through-loading height

Lifting roof

And for convenient loading and unloading, the roof can be raised to increase the side through-loading height, enabling simple loading. This prevents damage to the load and roof.

Excellent body strength with the Schmitz Cargobull Safety Roof

Safety Roof

The standard Safety Roof also contributes to the strength of the trailer body. The Safety Roof can be slid forward or backwards and stopped in an open position for loading and unloading by crane.

Transport safely with the Roof Safety Airbag

Roof Safety Airbag

The Roof Safety Airbag (RSAB) improves safety in traffic. When inflated, the RSAB creates a bulge in the roof, causing water to run off and preventing ice formation in winter.

Height adjustment

Adjustment of the body to the load volume with the VARIOS body

VARIOS

Use the height-adjustable TÜV Centre-certified body flexibly with different coupling heights. If required, the load volume grows with your requirements, while always remaining below the permitted overall height
