Timber semi-trailers

The timber transport semi-trailer is a specialized type of semi-trailer intended for transportation of tree trunks, wood raw material, wood assortment, etc.

Timber transports are widely used in logging and wood processing industry for transporting sawn timber and wood products between harvesting sites, warehouses, transshipment points and client enterprises. Obviously, the very format of this semi-trailer is perfectly adapted for transportation of such long cargo, but the specific conditions of operation of timber transports also require special equipment on these vehicles. The most important need is to move both on asphalt general use roads and in difficult conditions (dirt roads, forest trails, off-road conditions), regardless of the weather.

Therefore, timber transport semi-trailers (concatenated either to tractor units based on conventional trucks or to special tractor units) have increased strength and off-road performance, as a kind of a compromise between harvesters (have a high off-road performance but a relatively low speed) and conventional semi-trailers (have a normal speed on asphalt roads but a relatively bad off-road performance).

The cargo of the timber transport semi-trailers is retained by serrated U-shaped metal frames and tied by fastening straps. Additional attachments often includes a crane, which allows to carry out loading and unloading operations without additional equipment.
