Customer usage example: 36% weight reduction achieved by using 100% Strenx steel.
Ultra-light flatbed trailer made of high-strength steel! Increase payload capacity to enhance profitability.
We would like to introduce a case where Hidroamerica, a company from Colombia, has revamped the design of their trailers with an ultra-lightweight version. One of the challenges facing the transportation industry is reducing the weight of machinery to keep operational costs down. The company adopted high-strength weather-resistant steel 'Strenx 700' for the frame of their flatbed trailers, achieving a 36% weight reduction compared to semi-trailers made with ASTM A36. The General Manager stated, "From a manufacturing perspective, there are also significant savings. By reducing the thickness of the plates, we were able to lower manufacturing costs for cutting, welding, and necessary machinery compared to grade 50 or A36 steel." [Case Overview] ■ Optimized solutions for weight reduction ■ Increased payload capacity through lightweight design ■ The company’s standard is still an option in the competition *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
