NEWSSemonsat (FR) convinced by the Mega 4+1French abnormal transport company Semonsatworked together with Faymonville on thedevelopment of a Mega 4+1 with swing axles.This semi-trailer is today being used for transportingmachines weighing up to 60 tonnes.Jean-François Semonsat is delighted with it:“This vehicle offers quite a few advantages:first of all its exceptional steering angle andits 4+1 conception which enables us to goanywhere. The vehicle is very simple to use,extendible and multi-purpose. It can in factbe used in various applications. The expandersalso represent an advantage. This is the2 nd Faymonville semi-trailer we have bought andare very pleased with it.”A MultiZ6 for Virosque (ES)Spanish group Virosque took possession a few monthsago of a Multimax semi-trailer fitted with6 steering axles specially developed for the transportof rail vehicles.The MultiZ6 is in particular equipped with crankedaxles which enabled to lower the load height to780 mm. It is also fitted with special multi-extendibleramps on which, when they are horizontal, a partof a train can be placed. This allows for a betterspread of weight. The ramps in fact are thustransformed into load supports. In order to loadthe train onto the trailer, the ramps deploy in themanner of a “folding ruler”.Capelle (FR) counts on the TeleZ4French transport group Capelle, which has been workingwith Faymonville for more than a decade, tookpossession of a 4-axle Telemax in 2008, tripleextendiblefor transporting the vanes of wind turbines.What is special about this trailer is it represents acombination between a Multimax and a Telemax.This semi-trailer receives the gooseneck from the firstand the axles mounted on to ball cage from the second.These offer a greater steering angle (55°) thanthe stub axles of the Multimax.As this semi-trailer is principally used for transportingthe vanes of wind turbines which can be up to50 metres long, the steering angle is very important.This solution is suitable for all types of long parts.The Capelle group has 26 sites in Europe, of which23 are in France, employs 900 people and operatesa fleet of 650 motor vehicles, 800 trailers and40 pilot cars.www.transports-capelle.frP. 11
