ZW Group 3-Axle 60 Ton Lowbed Semi Trailer — Heavy Haul Project

ZW Group 3-Axle 60 Ton Lowbed Semi Trailer is engineered as a high-performance, heavy-duty transport solution, purpose-built for moving large, oversized, and heavy machinery across long distances.

With a payload capacity up to 60 tons, this lowbed semi trailer (also known as lowboy or low bed trailer) is ideal for hauling excavators, earthmoving machines, industrial equipment, construction vehicles, transformers, and other heavy cargo.

Core Advantages & Differentiators

1.   High Payload & Optimal Weight Efficiency

Designed to carry up to 60 tons (60,000 kg) of gross cargo load — enabling transportation of very heavy machines in a single trip.

The design optimizes tare (empty) weight vs. payload ratio, using high-strength materials so that net structural weight is minimized and payload potential is maximized.

The structural design spreads the load evenly across three robust axles, minimizing stress concentration and maintaining stable handling.

2.   Exceptionally Low Deck Height

Lowbed design ensures minimal deck height, facilitating easier loading/unloading of tall or awkward cargo, reducing tilt angles for ramps, and improving safety.

Lower center of gravity improves overall stability during transit, especially on curves, slopes, or uneven road surfaces.

The reduced height helps in meeting road regulation constraints on maximum vehicle height in many jurisdictions.

3.   Premium Materials & Reinforced Frame

Main beams, side beams, cross members, and floor plating are made from high-tensile steel grades (e.g. Q345, Q550, Q690, or equivalent), to deliver excellent strength-to-weight performance.

The cross-section and welding quality (often submerged-arc or automated welding) ensure minimal warpage, bending, or fatigue over the service life.

Thick deck plating (e.g. 4–5 mm checker plate) resists abrasion from crawling machinery and loading impacts.

Operational Benefits & Economic Value

Reduced number of trips

By consolidating heavy cargo into a 60-ton payload per trip, clients can reduce transport cycles, fuel consumption, and labor costs.

Improved loading/unloading efficiency

The low deck and well-engineered ramps shorten loading times and reduce risk of damage to cargo.

Lower maintenance & lifecycle costs

High-quality materials and precision welding reduce fatigue failures, and replaceable components (axles, suspension, brake parts) keep service costs manageable.

Regulation compliance

With customizable dimensions and axle configuration, the trailer can be adapted to comply with local highway permits, bridge ratings, and height/width limits.

Resale and asset value

A well-built heavy-haul trailer retains value in the secondary market due to robust structure and modular upgrade potential.

Brand integrity & support

As a ZW Group certified product, users benefit from after-sales service, spare part availability, and global support networks.
