Goldhofer – other trailers: the collective page of heavy-haul low-loaders from Memmingen outside the named ranges, with STN, STZ, SPZ and MPA, 3.3 to 62.9 tonnes unladen weight, up to 722.5 tonnes gross weight with coupled modules

This page gathers Goldhofer trailers the register could not assign to a named range. Goldhofer, based in Memmingen, Swabia, since 1705 and in vehicle building since the 19th century, is one of the world's leading makers of low-loaders and modular heavy-haul systems for special transport. The codes STN and STZ at Goldhofer denote semi low-loaders with normal or forced steering, SPZ a semi platform with forced steering, the following digits denoting, by the maker's logic, the axle count and payload class (for instance STN-L4-48/80 as a four-axle low-loader); MPA denotes the modular axle lines that can be coupled into long combinations.

The register lists here 156 versions with unladen weights from 3,310 to 62,900 kg, gross weights up to a theoretical 722,500 kg with multiply coupled module combinations, lengths up to 32,000 mm and widths up to 3,200 mm.

Alongside Faymonville and Nooteboom, Goldhofer is one of Europe's three big makers of heavy-haul and special-transport trailers and is used for transporting wind-turbine parts, industrial plant, bridge sections and construction machinery, where the modular axle lines are combined precisely tailored to the load.

On used Goldhofer modules, the condition of the hydraulic steering axles and control electronics, the tightness of the hydraulic rams for height adjustment, the frame and coupling points between modules, and the maintenance history of the axle and braking system count; given the high complexity, inspection should be carried out by a specialist familiar with Goldhofer systems.

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.
