New jumbo swap bodies for loading
Würfel Spedition, a company specialised in jumbo swap body transportation, is investing in jumbo swap bodies equipped with straddle plates for loading onto other swap bodies. This enables both jumbo swap bodies of a vehicle to be loaded or unloaded at the same time while occupying a single gate on the ramp.
Swap bodies equipped with straddle plates shorten waiting times at the ramp and save valuable ramp space in the depot. The driver parks his vehicle at the ramp, and loading or unloading can be carried out without uncoupling the trailer.
The innovative jumbo swap bodies jointly developed by Würfel offer 19 pallet spaces with an interior height of 3.00m and width of 2.48 m. The loading bed measures a length of 7.71 m. The dimensions therefore correspond to the tried-and-tested Würfel jumbo swap bodies without the loading feature. No compromises have to be made in the payload due to the particularly efficient and weight-optimised construction of the straddle plate.
Würfel Holding has more than 1,000 swap bodies of its own. This portfolio is regularly maintained and updated through an ongoing investment programme.
