Three-Axle Flatbed Container Semi-Trailer for Inter modal Shipping

Overview

Designed for seamless intermodal transport, the Three-Axle Flatbed Container Semi-Trailer efficiently handles 20-foot and 40-foot ISO containers, combining rugged durability with quick-loading capabilities. With a 65-ton payload capacity and hydraulic twistlock system, this trailer enables smooth transitions between road, rail, and sea transport, supporting global supply chains with 99.9% container security during transit.

Features

Universal Container Compatibility

Twistlock System: Hydraulic-powered twistlocks (ISO 1161 compliant, 2,000N·m torque) adjust to 20’ (2,438mm) and 40’ (12,192mm) containers, locking/unlocking each corner in 15 seconds—3x faster than manual systems. Position sensors confirm 100% lock engagement before departure.

Container Guide Rails: Adjustable side rails (50–300mm offset, 500N/m lateral resistance) with laser alignment markers, reducing loading errors (e.g., misaligned twistlocks) by 90% in low-light conditions.

High-Strength Modular Design

Q690D Steel Frame: Yield strength 690 MPa, capable of withstanding 80-ton dynamic loads (e.g., 0.5g vertical acceleration on unpaved roads), with bolted modular sections (2m/3m/4m) for easy replacement of damaged components (repair time <4 hours).

Load-Equalizing Axles: Three 22-ton axles with parabolic leaf springs (550mm length, 12-leaf design), distributing weight within ±2% tolerance to meet bridge formula regulations (e.g., Canada’s National Bridge Code).

Weather-Resistant Finish

Zinc-Rich Primer + Polyurethane Topcoat: 75μm zinc primer (85% zinc content) + 125μm polyurethane topcoat, passing 1,500-hour salt spray testing (ASTM B117) with <10% rust creepage and 500-hour UV exposure (ASTM G154) with <5% color fade.

Anti-Skid Deck Plates: 6mm thick checker plate (Rz 25μm roughness, friction coefficient 0.75 wet), providing superior grip for container lashing—tested with 40-foot containers at 0.4g braking deceleration without slippage.

Compliance & Connectivity

Telematics Integration: Built-in GPS (accuracy 5m) and load sensors (±0.1% weight accuracy), transmitting real-time data to fleet management software (e.g., container position, twistlock status, tire pressure).

Braking Systems: EBS (Electronic Braking System) compliant with ECE R13-III, reducing braking distance by 20% (40m at 80km/h) and enabling trailer stability control (TSC) during emergency stops.

Application

Port Logistics: Moves 20-foot reefers (8,000kg) and 40-foot dry containers (26,000kg) between Shanghai Port, Rotterdam, and Los Angeles Port, supporting 24/7 container terminal operations.

Retail & E-Commerce: Transports consumer goods (500+ SKUs per container) and automotive parts in intermodal chains, with optional container tracking IDs (RFID-enabled) for end-to-end visibility.

Project Cargo: Hauls overwidth containers (4.3m wide, 32-ton payload) with extendable side panels (150mm outward extension per side), compliant with oversized load permits in 15 countries.

Why Choose Us

Multi-Modal Expertise: Engineered to meet ISO 668 (container dimensions), AAR M-916 (rail car coupling), and IMDG Code (sea transport), ensuring seamless transitions between truck, train, and ship—used by Maersk and DHL for 98% on-time intermodal transfers.

Fast Turnaround Design: Hydraulic twistlock system reduces container swap time to 5 minutes per trailer, a 30% improvement over manual systems—critical for high-throughput ports processing 1,000+ containers daily.

Total Cost of Ownership: 15% lower maintenance costs due to modular components and corrosion-resistant finish, backed by a 3-year warranty on all moving parts (including twistlocks and axles).
