Schmitz Cargobull’s S.KI AK LIGHT tipper now with improved aluminium body
The well-established modular system allows users to select the aluminium box body that suits their individual transport task. This includes bodies for specific applications such as thermal insulation, as well as universally applicable bodies that are suitable for a wide range of transport tasks on construction sites and in agricultural applications.
Schmitz Cargobull has reworked the lightweight aluminium body of the S.KI LIGHT tipper semi-trailer, in order to ensure greater robustness, longer service life and simplified maintenance. More into details, the well-established modular system allows users to select the aluminium box body that suits their individual transport task. This includes bodies for specific applications such as thermal insulation, as well as universally applicable bodies that are suitable for a wide range of transport tasks on construction sites and in agricultural applications.
The revised S.KI AK LIGHT tipper by Schmitz Cargobull
The redesign of the upper belt and wider contact surfaces for the sliding roof reduce wear and increase the service life of the body and roof. In addition, areas subject to heavy wear have been specifically reinforced, which extends the maintenance intervals. Finally, the rear area has been functionally revised and specifically reinforced to ensure lasting high stability even under intensive use.
Additionally, two integrated wear grooves in the floor serve as visual indicators of the need for maintenance and make it easier to check the condition. Application-specific slide gates are available for different uses. The slide gate for agricultural applications has been optimised in terms of tightness, while the construction site version focuses on ease of cleaning.
With these advancements, Schmitz Cargobull aims to make the new aluminium box body of the S.KI AK LIGHT tipper semi-trailer more economical, robust and maintenance-friendly.
