Chassis for your semi-trailers
Its galvanised and bolted components make the MODULOS semi-trailer frame something very special. In a further enhancement, we have now improved the strength and precision of the frame with the aid of an innovative production method. The key component, the l-beam, is now cold formed from a single piece.
-
Direct load dissipationThe axle suspension directs forces straight into the bar in the rolled l-beam. That means: maximum reliability on even the trickiest of roads.Read more
-
From theory to practiceThe ideal shape of the design can be precisely brought to life with flexible roll forming. Additional elements are attached using bolt connections to provide supplementary reinforcement at the points put under particular strain, resulting in a flexible design and weight savings.Read more
-
Wide spanThe two I-beams to which all components are attached span the entire length of more than 13 m.Read more
-
Rolling in place of weldingRoll forming offers considerable benefits over welding in terms of design, energy consumption and pollutant emissions. Changes to the cross-section of the profile can be easily made due to the three-dimensionally pivoting roller sets.Read more
-
Fast and precise assemblyWe use tools with special torque control to ensure that bolts are fitted with the right clamping force.Read more
-
Small parts - big ideasSchmitz Cargobull's strong knurled bolts feature longitudinal grooves on the shaft to fit perfectly into the hole, protecting the connections from being twisted.Read more
-
Planning for the futureThe durability of the galvanised steel guarantees its long-lasting performance. Zinc can also be sorted for recycling and modern hot galvanising facilities practise a recycling management process to reduce energy consumption and lower emissions.Read more
-
Support - where you need itThe bottom chord in the neck area is specifically reinforced so that the weight of the entire l-beam can be distributed as effectively as possible.Read more
-
Convenient self-healingSmall scratches or chips on a galvanised surface do not pose a problem. Electrolytic processes help to improve protection against slight damage. meaning that the corrosion protection is practically maintenance-free.Read more
-
Perfect functional unitFloor panels and integrated load securing rails create a highly functional platform. The wide range of equipment options available means that the trailer can be adapted to suit a number of different transportation tasks.Read more
-
Intelligence beats massTriangular reinforcements absorb large forces with very little material. This is how the chassis is able to transport up to 27 tonnes of axle load across the country safely and efficiently.Read more
-
More than just a quality mark.Quality checks are carried out throughout the production process.Read more
-
Quality in one pieceThe component is only dipped into the galvanising bath once it has been formed. This whole-unit galvanising process ensures that the edges and hollow spaces are just as well protected as the large outer surfaces.Read more
-
The support structure becomes a platform.The new MODULOS chassis is equipped with strong, durable boards. The boards are mounted flush with the frame, screwed in, then the joints are sealed. The proven 28 mm thick floor is available with different surfaces, with coefficients of friction of up to µ = 0.6, and for stacker axle loads of 7.1 to 9.5 tonnes.Read more
-
Repair-friendlySchmitz Cargobull trailers can be restored to the operational capability of in the shortest time, even in the event of damage.Read more
-
The most stringent of tests.With the aid of a hydraulic unit with pulses at up to 40 times the force of gravity, we simulate a distance of 1 million kilometres in our test centre. This exceeds even the tough testing standards employed by car manufacturers.Read more
