First Looks at New TRAILERs ! #NATDA #bestnewtrailers
What happens here
Shaun from QuickLoads introduces their automated container trailers, the only trailers in the world that can automatically move loaded shipping containers. The system is fully automatic: the driver backs up to a container, uses a smartphone app to activate the trailer, which then grabs and loads the container in approximately two minutes. The trailer uses two lift wedges that pick up one side of the container by six inches. Two chains, with hooks that engage the container's corner castings, then pull the trailer underneath the container. Once loaded, quick locks automatically secure the container. This eliminates the need for the driver to manually interact with the container. QuickLoads offers 20-foot and 40-foot versions, with some models featuring a large solar array to keep the battery charged, requiring no external power. The demonstrated baby model sells for approximately $60,000-$70,000, depending on options.
Goal: Learn about QuickLoads' fully automated system for moving shipping containers.
