The MTE 4 Axle Semi Tipper is a heavy-duty, high-capacity trailer engineered specifically for the demanding scrap metal and recycling industry. Designed tohandle the harsh conditions associated with transporting scrap steel and metal products, the trailer combines a high-tensile steel tipping body with a 45,000kg GVM, heavy-duty running gear and rear steering axle. With a 13-metre-long tapered bin and a range of safety, weighing and operational options available, each trailer can be configured around the requirements ofthe customer's scrap metal operation.
Rear Steering Axle, Three fixed axles combined with a rear steering axle provide improved manoeuvrability and reduced tyre scrub, particularly when accessing recycling yards, industrial sites and other confined operating environments.
45,000kg GVM, Designed around a 45,000kg gross vehicle weight, providing a high-capacity platform for transporting scrap metal between collection points, processing facilities and recycling operations.
Safety-Focused Tipping, A rollover protection system prevents the body from being raised when the trailer is outside its permitted operating angle, helping reduce the risk associated with tipping on uneven ground. Additional safety systems can also be incorporated, including overhead powerline detection, reverse cameras and interlocked body and tailgate controls.
Custom Built for Your Operation, Every scrap operation is different. MTE can configure the 4 Axle Semi Tipper around the customer's payload requirements, loading methods, operating environment and fleet specifications. Options include body construction, hydraulic covers, onboard weighing systems, overhead powerline detection, reverse cameras, storage solutions and customised hydraulic control systems.
