ACCORD-Stinger Container chassis (New & Used) may speed up handling since the ACCORD skeletal trailer is 50% (three TEU’s) more productive than existing chassis and may even employ “Swinglift” self loading and unloading options. According to studies in Australia, up to seven (7) skeletal trailers per day may be serviced, outside of the port, with this system. By adding flexibility at the Port, improving turn-around times the ACCORD-stinger container chassis will increase TEU clearance, add to ROI.
NZR Stinger Semi-trailer container chassis
Stinger Semi-trailer container chassis have turntable/5th wheel stinger located behind the tractor and on the drom. This type of trailer is able to carry (3) TEU’s offering a 50% increase in capacity. Clearing the port has become a major hassle for shipping and port authority alike and drayage companies can improve handling with this type skeletal.
Tractors require a small upgrade to d-TRAiN 5th wheel compound hitch in order to pull the “No-GAP” ACCORD-Stinger skeletal. A longer slider is required for the 5th wheel and an extended tractor after-frame.
ACCORD-Stinger for zero “GAP”
Some applications may benefit from the use of the ACCORD-Stinger arrangement as a way to get the third TEU, with or without steering.
