GINCOR Werx Equipment for the United Kingdom
Live Bottom Trailers for Asphalt, Aggregate and Bulk Hauling
GINCOR Werx manufactures vocational truck equipment and Live Bottom trailers for demanding hauling and road-building applications.
For UK operators, GINCOR’s Live Bottom systems provide a non-tipping unloading option for asphalt, aggregate and other suitable bulk materials. A continuous powered conveyor belt moves the load towards the rear while the trailer body remains down.
GINCOR can help operators compare Live Bottom, walking-floor and ejector systems and assess which configuration best suits their application.
Live Bottom Equipment for UK Operations
GINCOR Live Bottom trailers use a powered conveyor-belt floor for controlled horizontal discharge. The belt carries material towards the rear, so the trailer body does not need to be raised during unloading as it does with a conventional end-tip trailer.
Applications include:
- Asphalt and paving materials
- Aggregate
- Sand and gravel
- Road-building materials
- Other suitable bulk products
Equipment intended for UK use should be reviewed based on the material being hauled, payload requirements, tractor configuration, operating environment and destination-market requirements.
Live Bottom Equipment for UK Operations
Asphalt Trailers
GINCOR Live Bottom trailers are designed for asphalt and paving applications where controlled rear discharge is important.
The conveyor-belt floor moves asphalt towards the rear while the trailer body remains down. This provides an alternative to conventional tipping, walking-floor and ejector systems.
Aggregate and Bulk Material Trailers
GINCOR Werx Live Bottom trailers can also be configured to carry aggregate, sand, gravel and other suitable bulk materials.
The conveyor system provides controlled horizontal unloading for applications involving quarries, construction sites, road-building operations, stockpiles and other material-handling environments.
Comparing Non-Tipping Trailer Systems
UK operators have several options when material needs to be unloaded without raising the trailer body. Three relevant approaches are Live Bottom, walking-floor and ejector systems.
Live Bottom
A powered conveyor belt carries the load towards the rear.
Walking Floor
Reciprocating floor slats move the load towards the rear.
Ejector Trailer
A hydraulic bulkhead pushes the load towards the rear.
