ModuleMAX

New at Faymonville. Twin tyre self-propelled trailers with electronic steering.
The ModulMAX range includes technical characteristics that are put to multi-disciplinary use for G-Modul, S-Modul and C-Modul. The transport operator benefits from this freedom of choice to select the modular type that suits the best with its requirements.

The proven pendle-axle technology is used within the three available trailer modes: Trailer Mode, Assist Mode and Self-Propelled Mode.
The steering system of these trailers varies between the electronic and the mechanical principle.
■ TM: Trailer Mode
The trailer mode is the most common way to work with modular platform trailers in on-road and off-road applications. One or more trucks pull or push the trailer by means of a drawbar system or a gooseneck.
In drawbar mode, the trailer can be assembled in a 2-file configuration, or even side-by-side in a in a 3-file (1+1/2) or 4-file (1+1) configuration. The trailer mode allows travel speeds of up to 80 km/h. Therefore, it is the most suitable solution for long transport distances.
■ AM: Assist Mode
The assist mode system is a highly efficient drive system that is used both on-road and off-road. For on-road transport, the wheel motors provide a high driving force on demand and can thus replace additional tractors. Thus, if necessary, tractive force peaks can be bridged when starting off or when driving uphill.
From a certain speed the drive axles switch to a freewheel mode and can be pulled at up to 80 km/h. If the speed drops, the axles switch on again automatically if desired. Furthermore, this drive concept can be used completely without a tractor and a vehicle can thus be moved in self-propelled mode. The necessary energy is also supplied by a Power Pack Unit.
■ SP: Self-Propelled Mode
Application for in-plant and off-road transports; mechanically or electronically steered modular vehicle combinations. The drive axles are then supplied by Power Pack Units and generate driving forces that can move loads of several thousands of tons. The entire control of the vehicle is done by a single remote control. All vehicle combinations from 2-file, 3-file and 4-file up to open compound vehicle groups are possible with this drive concept.
The ModulMAX trailer range is rounded off by a full range of options and accessories to obtain the best configuration for any type of load.
The customer can choose between mechanical steering and electronic steering.
