Tank semi-trailer refers to the semi-trailer with tank structure in the cargo box, which is common in transportation operations. Generally, it is widely used in industry, agriculture, commerce and other fields, mainly used to transport oil, gas, bulk materials, etc.

According to the types of goods transported, tank semi-trailer can be divided into the following categories:

1. Liquid tank truck: to transport gasoline, kerosene, diesel, vegetable oil, edible oil, heavy oil, coal tar, acid and alkali, water, alcohol, aldehyde, benzene, ether and other liquid substances;

2. Powder tanker: transport dry bulk materials with particle diameter ≤ 0.1mm, such as bulk cement, flour, stone powder, pulverized coal, chemical powder, etc.

3. Gas tanker: transport and load nitrogen, argon, petroleum gas and other gas goods;

4. Granular tanker: mainly used to transport grain, beans, granular plastics and other granular goods;

5. Other special tank trucks: such as concrete mixer, sprinkler, cleaning truck, etc.

According to the pressure in the tank semi-trailer container, it can be divided into:

1. Low pressure tank car: the internal pressure borne by the tank body is generally below 0.09Mpa, mainly containing water, light fuel oil, etc;

2. Medium pressure tank car: the internal pressure borne by the tank body is generally 0.147-0.294Mpa, mainly transporting caustic soda, asphalt, etc;

3. High pressure tank car: the internal pressure borne by the tank body is generally 1.177-3.532Mpa.

Advantages of tank semi-trailer:

1. High handling and transportation efficiency

Transporting goods through tanks is convenient for centralized loading and unloading, which can shorten the shutdown time of vehicles due to cargo loading and unloading, and improve transportation efficiency.

2. Protect the goods.

The tank body is generally a sealable container, and the goods are less affected by the outside world during transportation, so it is not easy to cause pollution, leakage or deterioration.

3. The security of goods is high.

Especially when transporting some explosive, flammable, toxic or highly corrosive goods, tank transportation can greatly reduce the occurrence of accidents and improve the safety of transportation, loading and unloading.

4. Save packaging materials.

It is unnecessary to pack the goods in tank transportation, which can save packaging materials and expenses and reduce transportation costs;

5. Reduce labor intensity

The tank transportation is highly mechanized, without multiple loading and unloading, and without too much human participation, which can greatly reduce human consumption.

6. Reduce environmental pollution.

Especially when transporting goods that are prone to producing dust, particles or other harmful substances, tank transportation can greatly reduce pollution during loading, unloading and transportation, and significantly improve working conditions.

Tank semi-trailer transport volume is relatively large, generally more than 24t, and the specific needs are determined according to the vehicle model, chassis, superstructure configuration, etc. Darong Axle has been specializing in the production of various semi-trailer axles/axles for more than 20 years. Its disc axle, drum axle, low plate axle, light trailer axle and other products are rich, the size and specification can be customized, and the strength, toughness, ductility and other properties have been fully tested by the market, which makes it more reassuring.
