The FT SERIES offers unprecedented flexibility and investment security for the heavy haulage industry. This smart system unites semitrailers in the heavy payload class and heavy-duty module combinations, especially for road transportation. With its intelligent configuration and accessory packages, the FT SERIES can be combined with almost all the trailer modules in the Goldhofer portfolio. The big attraction of this groundbreaking type of vehicle is that system changes can be made quickly and easily at any time. This allows a flexible response to changing market requirements and reduces the total cost of ownership. At the time of purchase, the FT SERIES can be adapted to individual requirements, thus avoiding the compromises that were often necessary in the past when placing an order. Basic width and bending moment, for example, can be individually specified for all standard bogies. And that is only the beginning: Another highlight of the FT SERIES is a new wheel set. With its intelligent design, the new unit not only offers an optimized suspension stroke of 640 mm and a steering angle of 60 degrees, but also the flexibility to adapt to changing requirements – even after purchase. There are five different single and twin tire options to choose from for a loading height of between 760 mm and 940 mm for axle loads of 22 to 45 tons. But that is not all: To facilitate easy integration of the new FT SERIES into the existing fleet, the axle compensation cylinders can be specified for compatibility with Goldhofer’s entire heavy-duty portfolio. This is the key to a system with almost unlimited combination capability.
