3 Axle Panel Trailer

MTE recently completed this 3 Axle Panel Trailer for Move Logistics – Specialist Lifting & Transport, purpose-built for the transportation of precast concrete panels.

Designed around the unique requirements of precast transport, the trailer features a hydraulically adjustable suspension system that allows the deck to lower to just 200mm between the axles. This allows large concrete panels to sit low within the trailer, helping accommodate taller panels while maintaining a practical overall transport height.

A dedicated panel restraint system incorporates removable uprights and six individually controlled hydraulic panel clamps, providing secure support for panels during transport.
