Ackermann – other models: semi-trailers and trailers outside the named ranges, PA-F, VA-F and KA-F types, 1.6 to 12 t kerb weight, up to 40 t gross vehicle weight
This page gathers Ackermann trailers and semi-trailers that the register could not assign to a named range. The type codes combine the letters PA-F, VA-F, KA-F, PS-F and VS-F with axle and variant numbers; the wide variety of combinations shows that the type plates mainly reflect internal order and axle codes. Among the model names is also the Dutch word oplegger for semi-trailer, pointing to close trade with the Netherlands.

The register lists here 38 versions with kerb weights from 1,600 to 12,000 kg and gross vehicle weights from 4,400 to 40,000 kg, at lengths from 4,720 to 14,030 mm and widths from 2,100 to 2,600 mm.
Ackermann vehicles compete in road haulage with the big German semi-trailer builders such as Schmitz Cargobull and Krone, and are found mainly with long-haul hauliers and forwarders using swap bodies. Depending on the body, applications range from the curtainsider through the box body to the low-loader for machinery transport.
When buying used, check the frame and axle mounts for rust and distortion, the condition of axles, suspension and brakes, play in the kingpin, and the tightness of the tarpaulin or body; this also covers the function of the lighting and electrical connectors and, where fitted, the ABS or EBS brake system. Spares for axles and brake systems mostly come through standard suppliers such as BPW or SAF.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
