HOWO Flatbed Excavator Mixer Transport Heavy Engineering Equipment Machinery Truck With Climbing Ladder
The HOWO self-loading flatbed transport truck is a specialized vehicle category designed to transport heavy, non-removable machinery such as excavators, loaders, bulldozers, road rollers, and agricultural equipment like harvesters.
-
Hydraulic Tilting/Lifting System (for Self-Loading):A design that allows the front of the flatbed deck to be hydraulically lifted, creating a gentle ramp angle with the ground. This feature eliminates the dangerous corner where a standard ramp meets the deck, allowing machinery to drive on more safely and easily without needing a separate loading dock.
-
Integrated Crane (Self-Loader Truck):Some models are equipped with a truck-mounted crane (either telescopic or knuckle boom), allowing the truck to load and unload smaller to medium-sized cargo or its own supporting equipment without external machinery.
-
Safety and Efficiency:The hydraulic tilting/lifting feature greatly reduces the risk of machinery rollover when climbing onto the flatbed, a common hazard with traditional ramps on high decks.
-
Heavy-Duty Construction:The reinforced chassis (often using I-beam main beams and strong square tube frames) is specifically designed to handle the concentrated load and dynamic forces of large, heavy equipment.
-
Versatility:The low-deck design and strong ramps make the truck suitable for a wide variety of off-road machinery, including the high ground clearance and wide tracks of excavators and the large dimensions of modern agricultural harvesters.
Excavator carrier lorry (also called flat bed truck , excavator transport truck , machinery transport truck , flatbed lorry , low bed truck , excavator carrier truck , asphalt paver carrier truck , lorry carrier truck ) is used for transporting abject that is non removable or machinery that cann't be driven on road , such as excavator , loader , harvester , etc . It's widely used in the construction , agriculture field .
To load machinery easily , there is a tilt ramp at back of flatbed , When loading machinery on , turnover the ramp to ground , So there could be a slope between ground and flatbed . When finished loading , The ramp should be fold up and fastened by manual . According to special requirements , The ramps could be hydraulic fold and extension .
According to its driven type , there is 4*2, 6*4,8*4 flatbed truck .
