WESTECH® FLOW CONTROL BODY®
The WESTECH® Flow Control Body® has a revolutionary floor design that controls the flow of material during the dumping cycle, keeping the load’s centre of gravity in front of the rear axle longer.
This unique design reduces material surge from the truck body and eliminates lift at the front of the truck, increasing stability and safety.
The more even and controlled flow also:
- Reduces dust generated during the dumping process
- Extends body life by causing less friction on the floor
- Enhances lift cylinder life by keeping them in compression
- Improves crusher life and efficiency
The WESTECH® Flow Control Body® is available for all truck brands and models in coal, coal/overburden combo designs.
