L.I.T. AG, logistics, an information and transport specialist, is extending its fleet with 50 new height-optimized Kögel Mega trailers. The trailers will be used mainly in the Just-in-Time business of the automobile industry.

The Kögel Mega P55 is ideally suited to the execution of volume transport. In addition, it meets the permissible overall height of four meters with a usable internal height of three meters and a semi-trailer coupling height of 91 centimeters. The Kögel Mega P55 uses a combination of tire choice and a reduction in the semi-trailer throat from 90 to 55 millimetres to optimize the height while retaining stability. A tare weight starting at 6.4 tons means that high levels of payload are possible.

The usable internal height of three meters makes the ideal trailer in the automotive sector. Loading and unloading stacked pallet cages is simple, thanks to the standard mechanical-hydraulic lifting roof. This increases the side and rear through-loading height to three meters. The DIN 12642 Code XL certification means that no additional load securing is required for form-locked loading.

The 50 new L.I.T. trailers for the automotive sector are equipped in accordance with Daimler guideline 9.5. This includes pallet stops and end wall doubling. For safe ramp loading, additional support fixtures with mechanical lifting and lowering are mounted behind the axle unit. In addition, the trailers are fitted with RoRo equipment, with four pairs of heavy-duty lashing rings, for accompanied marine and ferry transport. For rapid and convenient coupling, the Mega trailers are also fitted with the Duo-Matic system in addition to the standard coupling heads.

"The clear advantages of the new Kögel Mega P55 and the much appreciated Kögel quality have really impressed us,” says Ingo Schreiber, Managing Director at L.I.T. Cargo. "We were, once again, very impressed by the excellent local customer service provided by Kögel."
