The Metaq51 trailer is based on a further developed design where several technical solutions are now being implemented across Metsjö’s dumper trailer range. The same design and engineering principles will be introduced in additional models in the product line in the future.
“Requirements for transport equipment in agriculture and contracting are constantly increasing. Stability, durability and efficiency are crucial for users. With this model we have developed a dump trailer that combines high capacity with robust construction and excellent driving comfort,” says Anders Ivarsson, CEO of Metsjö.
Improved function and durability
The trailer features a completely new body design developed for optimal material handling and longer service life. The front section is reinforced and shaped to allow material to discharge more easily during tipping, while also protecting exposed structural areas. The interior of the body is completely smooth, without ledges where material can accumulate. The upper edge is reinforced with an outward-folded top rail that helps ensure more controlled loading.
The wide and open interior design also makes it easier to load machinery into the trailer. At the same time, the height-adjustable chassis lowers the center of gravity and improves stability both during loading and transport.
The hydraulic suspension system is based on technology used in Metsjö’s larger Hook lift trailers and has successfully been used for many years. Combined with laser-aligned axles, this provides improved weight distribution, increased stability and higher driving comfort. Tests have also shown fuel savings of between 22 and 28 percent compared with trailers equipped with simpler suspension systems.
Flexible design
The chassis height can be adjusted by up to 35 cm, allowing the trailer to be adapted to different hitch heights and working conditions. The design also makes it possible to switch between different body types depending on the application, such as for grass, bales, grain or machinery transport. The MetaQ51 is constructed using Hardox 450, with an 8 mm floor plate and 6 mm side and front plates, providing high wear resistance and long service life.
