Is the "flying wing semi-trailer" worth buying?

With the continuous development of the logistics and transportation industry, companies have become more and more stringent in the requirements of cargo transportation, which has also led to the emergence of new models to a certain extent, and the flying wing car is one of them.

Flying Wing Vehicles, also known trailer axle as Zhanyi Vehicles, Biwing Vehicles, and Two-wing Vehicles, are called "open van transport vehicles" in full, which are improvements made on the basis of ordinary van vehicles, and are commonly known as "flight boxes" in the industry.

The early flying wing vehicles were generally refitted later, but now there are more and more models that meet the announcement, such as light trucks, mini trucks, center axles, semi-trailers, etc., are available for flying wing announcements. Some models can also be made into a single-wing structure according to the needs of users.

The working principle of the flying wing car:

The flying wing vehicles of medium and heavy trucks generally use hydraulic lifts, while light and micro trucks generally use manual lifts.

The lifting height of the flying wing car can exceed the cabin, close to 90°, and the double rear doors can also be opened 270°, fully opening the cabin.

It is worth noting that most hydraulically lifted flying wings do not need to start the engine. They only need to be powered by the vehicle battery, and the opening angle of the door panels on both sides can be controlled through the control buttons of the electric control box.

Advantages of the flying wing car:

1. High loading and unloading efficiency.

The cargo compartment of the flying wing car can be expanded at a wide angle trailer axle, suitable for fast loading and unloading by machinery, fast speed, high efficiency, time-saving, and labor-saving. If it can be applied on a large scale, it can help logistics companies save a lot of cargo turnover time and improve work efficiency.

If it is used in conjunction with forklifts and pallets, it can also speed up the circulation of goods, which is very suitable for the road-rail combined transport mode.

2. Good sealing performance.

Flying Wing Car is essentially a van, with better airtightness, which can reduce or avoid the wind, sun, and rain of the goods during transportation. At the same time, it has anti-theft function and good safety performance.

3. Suitable for loading and unloading large cargo.

Compared with ordinary vans, the cargo compartment of the Flying Wing has a higher degree of opening, making it easier to load and unload some large cargo.

Disadvantages of flying wings:

1. High cost.

Compared with ordinary cargo compartments, the hydraulic trailer axle lifting system and reinforcement components are added to the flying wing cargo compartment, so the cost is more expensive. Taking the 9×6 cargo compartment as an example, the flying wing is generally about 10,000-20,000 more expensive.

2. Higher self-weight.

The side panels of the flying wing car need to be lifted. In order to ensure that the cargo compartment does not deform during the lifting process, more materials need to be used to reinforce the cargo compartment, so its weight is higher than that of ordinary compartments.

3. High requirements for the site.

The flying wing vehicle also has certain requirements for the loading and unloading site, which must be wide and flat enough for the flying wing to open normally.

Applicable scenarios of flying wing car:

Generally speaking, the flying wing car is mainly used to transport paper, home appliances, clothing, chemicals, beverages, food, auto parts and other items, or other larger, more expensive items. Generally speaking, for industries that require high efficiency in transportation and loading and unloading, flying wing vehicles can be considered.

The development prospect of flying wing car:

Objectively speaking, the flying wing vehicle has fast loading and unloading speed and high efficiency. It is a transportation model that can meet the needs of modern logistics development and has a broad market prospect. In addition, the trend of lightweight vehicles has risen in recent years, and more lightweight materials are used in flying wing vehicles, which has improved the phenomenon of its high weight to a certain extent. It is expected that in the future logistics industry, flying wing vehicles will become one of the most popular models. one.
