To pick up and transport small containers, a hook-lift system is used. The system uses hydraulic arms, which makes it possible to lift, move and set the containers down again. The hydraulic arm system on a skip loader truck consists of two hydraulic arms. A chain is used to lift the container. There are special container stops on the truck itself, which ensure that the container stays in place. This type of vehicle is mainly used in sectors such as construction, waste management and logistics. In these industries, the safe unloading and loading of containers is crucial. In addition to a hook-lift system, the trucks are also equipped with a dedicated container system. This system is tuned to the type of cargo that the truck can carry.
When you have decided to purchase a skip loader truck, it is important to look at the purpose of the truck. With this knowledge, you can determine which configuration fits what you want to do with the truck. Factors to consider include performance, maneuverability and payload. The 4x2 configuration is most often chosen by companies operating in urban areas and by people who want to move small to medium-sized containers. Because it is driven by one axle, it reduces fuel consumption and maintenance costs. The 4x4 models are used on rougher terrain. For example, these are ideal on construction sites or bad roads. The 6x2 is mainly used by companies that need to transport heavy loads on a regular basis. These larger trucks are also more comfortable on longer trips. Among skip loader trucks, the 6x6 is also known as the powerhouse. This model is often used in the most challenging environments, such as construction sites in the mountains.
Most skip loader trucks are equipped with engines that meet the euro 5 or euro 6 emission class. The Euro 6 requirements are more stringent than the Euro 5 requirements. Euro 6 measures not only the amount of particles but also their size and numbers.
