Lifting power at its best
Wipro’s non-stabilising front-end tippers are designed for vehicles where lateral stability during tipping is not required from the cylinder and there is no stress directed to the tipping cylinder from the sides. They have been designed with lifting power as the only consideration. Thus the gear is light, durable and fast.
Flexible
In the ET model, the cylinder is attached to the body with a flexible lifting arm and to the chassis with a spherical bearing. Because of these, even very heavy loads will not bend or stress the cylinder. The cylinder will adjust to the movement of the body and the chassis.
ET is a strong front-end gear for heavy-duty earth-moving trucks and for trailers equipped with a separate stabiliser.
ETE is very similar to ET, but its cylinder is attached to the body with a spherical bearing. Because of this attachment method, the front wall of the body where the cylinder is located must be inclined forward. ETE is an ideal tipper for heavy-duty earth-moving work.
With the ETV model, the cylinder is installed upside down. It is attached to the body with a special jointed bracket in such a way that it is best suited for vehicles equipped with a tipping powder tank.
Cylinder-saving mechanism
These models are smaller in diameter than underbody tipping gears. Because the cylinder lifts the body from the front end, the lifting power is sufficient. In spite of the cylinder-saving mechanism, the body stays securely up on the cylinder’s shoulder during tipping. To ensure long working life, all ram tubes are hard chrome-plated.
Exceptional circumstances
The popularity of Wipro’s free-inclining front tipping gears in scorching deserts of the Middle-East and in freezing conditions at Spitsbergen speaks highly of their reliability.
