Platform trailer to transport potato crates

Kröger Nutzfahrzeuge has also now developed a platform trailer especially optimised for the purpose of transporting potato crates. For this purpose, the load area is designed to be variable to suit the commonly-available crate formats on the market. With this solution, potatoes can be harvested and transported from the field directly in the crates.

Securing of the load can be carried out using the frame board walls which form-fit the loaded crates and therefore ensure for the secure loading. However, as an alternative, high-quality aluminium side panels are available. Newly-developed centre posts can be folded down or removed in just a few steps. Thought has also been given to transporting a second layer of crates. These can be secured using tensioning straps to the lowerable lashing points which are provided in sufficient quantity.

New on this version is the optionally available extension at the rear of the vehicle. The platform can be used for on-site transport and extended by up to 1 metre. This means that the loading area can be adjusted flexibly to suit different potato crate formats.

As with all agroliner vehicle types, various additional equipment, e.g. side collision protection, toolboxes, catwalks and many more can be added to meet the customer's wishes. The running gears are based on solid and long-lasting high-speed extrusion systems.
