Joskin: High-capacity Q-Bigliner tankers introduced

Belgian company Joskin has extended its range of slurry equipment with the new series of large-volume and high-quality Q-Bigliner tankers.

Designed for high-capacity transport and not fitted with equipment for injector or spreading boom, three models are available with capacities of 28,600, 30,200 and 31,800 litres.

Contractors and operators of biogas plants will be glad of this new product because it can be used in an optimal and advantageous way on mid-range to long journeys. It can be particularly useful for farmers who drive tankers to containers on the edge of the field on contractors’ behalf.

The Q-Bigliner was developed on the basis of the chassis of the Euroliner triple-axle slurry tanker and is fitted with a fixed drawbar. One of the particularities of this tanker is its compact and large tank. This tanker is compact because of its large diameter of 2.3m, which ensures a high maneuverability.

The Q-Bigliner is standard fitted with a Hydro-Tridem running gear with front lifting axle. The hydropneumatic drawbar is also part of the standard equipment. This suspension provides the vehicle with outstanding road-holding capacities and even allows to drive at high speed in bends without compromising the stability.

The fixed drawbar ensures a weight transfer onto the back of the tractor both in loaded or unloaded position, which provides a better traction on unstable ground. These vehicles can be fitted with wheels ranging from 385/65R22.5 up to giant low-pressure tyres sized 750/60R30.5.

The Q-Bigliner tanks, like all tanks of Joskin spreaders, are manufactured according to the EN707 security standard and are therefore fitted with baffles, which prevent any important movement of the transported liquid.
