Telescopic Trailer

What is a Telescopic Trailer?

A telescopic trailer is a semi-trailer with extendable loading area which has a loading length of up to 40 meters. The telescopic trailer is necessary for delivering goods such as rotor blades, wind turbines or iron girders to the site of operation.

The length of the loading area can be individually modified for each load by pushing the articulated truck apart or together using three telescopic extensions. The movable rear wheels of the heavy transport are especially important when cornering.
