Goldhofer Showcases Products at Conexpo
Published: 16/6
The people at Goldhofer were more than satisfied with the outcome of this year’s Conexpo in Las Vegas. The expectations were more than exceeded with regard to demand for top-quality transportation solutions and value-creating services. Customers were equally impressed, with the Goldhofer P12 PLUS and STZ- P9 being of particular interest. The STZ-VL three-axle lowboy semitrailer with an additional flip axle also attracted keen interest. On the North American market especially, the additional flip axle is a key consideration. It increases the vehicle’s flexibility and payload and enables it to operate across interstate lines with changes in regulations.
The highlight in Las Vegas and an absolute eye-catcher was Goldhofer’s ADDRIVE with the FTV 850 blade carrier. The vehicle combines the advantages of a towed heavy-duty module with those of a self-propelled module. With its enormous tractive force, it supports the tractor unit up to a speed of 31 mph (50 kph). The driven axles are then disengaged automatically and can be re-engaged at lower speeds while driving.
