What Is De-Mount Bodywork?

De-Mount Bodies refers to bodywork that can be simply detached/re-attached from the chassis cab or draw-bar trailer unit and stand independently on integral landing legs.

Features

The Don-Bur De-Mountable Bodywork system is engineered and manufactured in-house, including chassis-cab installations, trailers, base frames and bodywork.

  • Extensive galvanisation
  • Curtain or Box bodywork
  • Straight Lift or Contact Systems
  • Compatible with your existing equipment

Greater Flexibility

To give greater flexibility in the warehouse, loading and unloading can be carried out at a time to suit the warehouse staff. The vehicles and drivers are out delivering instead of remaining on the loading dock waiting to be loaded.

  • Reduced driver hours
  • Faster Turnaround from the loading point
  • Eliminates "parked-up" units

Contact System

Action: Bodywork frame rolls horizontally along guide rails before being fixed with Twist-Locks.

Two fixed legs at rear corners and two fold-up legs at front.


Straight-Lift System

Action: Bodywork lifts vertically away from the chassis using the vehicle air suspension or on-board hydraulic lifting device before being fixed with Twist-Locks. Heavy duty cones are fitted for ease of unit location.

Four fold-up legs positioned at each corner.

The Straight-lift system lends itself well to draw-bar combinations as both de-mountable units can be positioned and fixed in one move.

Draw-Bar De-Mounts

By using De-Mountable Bodywork with Draw-Bar combinations further flexibility is achieved, enabling both trunking and secondary distribution without expensive warehousing or staff. By optimising the number of prime movers/draw-bar trailers and de-mount units, operators can minimise their fleetholding.
