The Basics of End Dump Trailer Manufacturers
End dump trailers are also called rear dump trailers, tipper trailers, or tipping trailers. End dump trailers are mostly used for bulk materials in construction sites and plants. The most significant feature of end dump trailers is their ability to unload goods very efficiently by tipping and dump the cargo box. An end dump trailer is basically a skeleton trailer with a similar dimension cargo box attached on top of it. There is a hydraulic system in the front of the trailer, which does the heavy lifting every time the trailer needs to unload. The cargo box is usually locked on the trailer body so goods can be loaded from the end of the trailer and then transported to designated location.
Prior unloading, the hydraulic lift raises the cargo box so that all goods inside is dumped all at once. Loading time ranges from 30 seconds to one minute approximately.
The length of end dump trailers varies from 8 meters to 10 meters. They can also be customized to other lengths depending on the work they are used for.
