Lusty EMS release new side tipper trailer
Based around a Hardox steel tub, the new trailer is built with strength and durability in mind, with features including heavy-duty spring suspension across each axle, LED mine-spec lights and polyurethane 2-pack paint.
The basic design is flexible enough to be produced in configurations from single axle up to C-Triple. Tub depth can also be built to suit different loads. Being a dedicated off-road trailer means the design isn't subject to the restrictions as road-going trailers, so it's more customisable.
Lusty EMS General Manager, Andrew Wibberley, says the Off-Road Side Tipper is designed specifically with the resources sector in mind. "We have had an increasing number of requests for a high mass-carrying capacity and durable tipper," says Andrew. "The mining sector in Australia has a growing need for this kind of product and as one of Australia's leading tipper manufacturers, we felt it was important that we were able to fill this gap.
"The tubs can also be built to differing heights, so if you're carrying a relatively light load, the tub can be as much as 3m high, but for denser loads, you may only require the tub to be 1m high, both of which are possible with this new trailer.
"Most of the orders to date have been placed for use in the coal mining sector," Andrew added. "But we see uses within all sorts of mining and other heavy industries. We think it's just a matter of time until you will start seeing Lusty EMS Off-Road Side Tippers all over the country."
