KESTEREN - D-TEC, the tank trailer manufacturer, will introduce a new
type of tank trailer for transporting digestate, manure or waste at the Agritechnica
agricultural machinery trade fair in November. Reachliner is a new tank trailer
that is designed to maximise transport efficiency through a low deadweight and
optimal operator-friendliness, delivered by a proven steering system and
suction boom. An innovative aspect of the Reachliner is a total concept with a
steered lightweight tank trailer (including suction boom) tailored to the
driver's needs. As such, it can be rotated 250 degrees and operated entirely
from the truck by remote control. With
Reachliner one can load from an underground well, from an above-ground intake
point, or from above-ground storage. Naturally, a separate suction hose can
always be connected at the rear if loading is being undertaken by the driver in
places where the suction boom cannot be used effectively.
Until recently, these suction booms were heavy and not integrated into a good
overall solution. D-TEC's new innovation allows drivers to operate these arms
from inside the truck while loading and unloading, which eliminates the need to
get out and lift. This increases their job satisfaction and commitment - and
indirectly also improves their efficiency.
Quick reverse manoeuvring
'The
steering system also allows you to manoeuvre into tight corners quickly and
efficiently in reverse with this vehicle, without requiring extreme experience.
This also greatly reduces loading and unloading time. Incidentally, this
steering system also significantly reduces soil damage on farms and reduces
tyre wear,' says Gerrit van Vlastuin, D-TEC CEO. Total concept
'Reachliner
is all about the total concept, in other words, a transport solution for
digestate, manure or waste, with which we try to achieve maximum efficiency.
For D-TEC, maximum efficiency involves the lightest possible vehicle, so you
can have maximum loading capacity and use fuel efficiently. Efficiency is also
achieved by reducing the loading and unloading times.
Introduction at Agritechnica
Reachliner
will be on show for the first time at the Agritechnica from 12 to 18 November
in Hanover at the D-TEC stand in hall 23, stand number A47.
