Description
The SINOTRUK HOWO 6×4 tractor truck is a powerful and efficient vehicle designed for heavy-duty road transportation. It consists of a tractor unit that connects to a trailer for hauling cargo over short or long distances.
Tractor Truck Functionality
The tractor head serves as the driving force of the truck, delivering strong torque and operational stability. It can tow various types of semi-trailers, making it a key asset in logistics, freight, and bulk cargo industries.
Flexible and Efficient Transport Solution
One of the main advantages of a tractor truck is its modular design—the tractor head and trailer can be separated easily. If either component needs maintenance, the other can continue working, improving fleet uptime and flexibility. For example, if the tractor head is under repair, another head can take over without delaying delivery.
Trailer Compatibility and Traction Seats
Depending on operational requirements, different types of fifth wheels (traction seats) can be used—fixed, mobile, or lifting types.
- Fixed Type: Most common. Mounted securely on the chassis using bolts for stable towing.
- Mobile Type: Features a slotted or toothed rail system allowing the seat to slide forward/backward for better trailer alignment.
- Lifting Type: Less common, designed for specific operational needs.
Application Scenarios
- Container transport
- Bulk cargo hauling
- Long-distance freight
