DRY BULK TANKER
6 Axle Powder Tanker Semi Trailer
This six-axle powder tanker is built for bulk cement, fly ash and lime powder. Two axles sit toward the front of the tank, with four more at the rear.
An engine and compressor are mounted at the front for pneumatic discharge. The tank has a top walkway and rear ladder; pipework and hose connections run below it. The final loading and discharge setup depends on the powder and the receiving silo.

RUNNING GEAR
How Are the Six Axles and Suspension Arranged?
AXLE POSITION
Two axles forward, four at the rear
The first pair sits just behind the landing legs, while four axles support the rear of the tank. The gap between these groups is part of the chassis layout and matters when checking axle loads for a proposed cargo.
SUSPENSION DETAIL
Air suspension on this build
Air bellows sit above the axle beams, with suspension arms and brake chambers below the frame. The discharge compressor is mounted at the tank front; it is not part of the axle suspension.
UNLOADING EQUIPMENT
How Is This Powder Tanker Trailer Equipped for Pneumatic Discharge?
AIR SUPPLY
Engine and compressor at the front
The engine and compressor sit together on a platform ahead of the tank. Their pipe connections are mounted outside the tank shell. This package supplies air to the tank for powder unloading.
DISCHARGE LINE
Pipework and hose at the rear
A rigid pipe runs along the lower side of the tank. The flexible blue hose is secured across the rear frame below the ladder. Its coupling needs to match the receiving line at the silo.

6 Axle Powder Tanker Trailer FAQ
Can it carry both cement and fly ash?
Yes. The reference outline lists bulk cement, fly ash and lime powder. Other powders need a separate check of material density and discharge requirements.
Does 45 m³ mean a 45-tonne payload?
No. The 45 m³ figure is tank volume on the reference outline, not a weight rating. Cargo weight depends on the powder, trailer tare and permitted axle loads.
Does this build have air suspension?
Yes. The suspension close-up shows air bellows. Two axles sit toward the front of the tank and four at the rear; axle ratings are set on the final specification.
Is the discharge compressor carried on the trailer?
Yes. The photos show an engine and compressor assembly on the front platform, with discharge pipework and a hose at the rear. No compressor output or unloading rate is stated here.
Will the hose connect to an existing silo?
The outline does not specify a hose diameter or coupling size. Match the outlet to the receiving inlet and pipe run before the final discharge layout is approved.
Are the outline dimensions final?
No. The sheet is marked for reference. It lists 13,500 mm length, 2,500 mm width and 1,350 mm kingpin height, but its two height callouts differ. Use the final contract drawing for tractor and route checks.
