Customers that don’t need the full function of a hook trailer can now get the benefits of running one high-capacity professional chassis with the ability to change the trailer body for separate tasks.
Modular units can be swapped in about 20 minutes using the tractor’s hydraulic system to raise the module after unlocking. When the module is clear of the chassis, jack legs are inserted and the chassis simply driven out ready to reverse under the next module.
Stronga had a SL24 chassis model at cereals 2009. It comes with a 24t sprung suspension on full tandem commercial axles, 420×180 brakes and sprung drawbar as standard, and is designed for modern, high-capacity, high-speed transport.
Also on the stand was a 20 cubic metre, smooth-sided grain module, equipped with roll sheet and hydraulic door, as well as a 12,000-litre spray nurse tank module suitable for water or liquid fertiliser.
The new range has been developed in response to customer demand for one really high-specification chassis capable of working year-round that meets forthcoming UK braking legislation, while allowing the customer flexibility to change between grain/bulk modules, Hardox half-pipe dumper modules for heavy materials and tanker or flat modules.
The modules can be purchased over a number of years, spreading the cost and allowing the customer to build up his own system.
