Lusty EMS launches new Stag

Tipper trailer specialist Lusty EMS recently unveiled its new Stag Walking Floor trailer at the Brisbane Truck Show

MaxiTRANS tipper trailer brand Lusty EMS has expanded its range, the company launching a new trailer model at the recent Brisbane Truck Show.

Lusty EMS says its new 'Stag Walking Floor' trailer combines all the benefits of its popular Stag B-double combination and its Walking Floor trailer, and that it delivers increased capacity and payload to waste and bulk transfer operators.

According to MaxiTRANS General Manager of Tippers, Craig Wallace, the model is set to boost both productivity and profit for canny operators in the waste and bulk-transfer sectors.

"What our customers constantly advise us is that they are looking for innovations which can make their life easier and which can deliver more profits back into their business," he said.

"The Stag Walking Floor achieves both those things, coming with the ability to unload both trailers without unhooking, combined with increased capacity and lower tare weight than a standard Walking Floor B-Double.

"Historically, B-Double Walking Floor combinations have not been popular due to the need to have to unhook the B-trailer in order to unload the A-trailer. The benefit of our popular Stag B-Double tipper combination is that the body of the A-trailer sits over the suspension, meaning in a jack-knifed position, it can be unloaded without unhooking.

"We've applied that same concept to our Walking Floor model, meaning in this new model both trailers can be unloaded or 'walked out' without unhooking. That translates into a significant saving of time and effort, which in turn means more loads per day and more profits for the operator."

Mr Wallace says the Stag Walking Floor combination can carry up to 134 cubic metres – an increase of 44 cubic metres over a single 45-foot Walking Floor trailer, and appreciably more than a conventional B-double.

"It is also up to two tonnes lighter than a standard Walking Floor B-Double, so the benefits are significant," he says.

The A-trailer of the B-double combination was on display in Brisbane, where it drew plenty of interest over the four days of the show.
