Rear floor articulation vs hydraulic ramps: which to choose?

When it comes to equipping a transport or breakdown vehicle, choosing between rear floor articulation and hydraulic ramps is an important decision. Each solution has specific advantages depending on the professional's needs. At FIAULT INDUSTRIE, we offer both options to guarantee high-performance equipment that is suited to every use.

The advantages of rear floor articulation:

Rear articulation is an increasingly popular solution among breakdown and transport professionals. It offers many advantages:

• Lighter than ramps: it reduces the overall weight of the vehicle.
• Less maintenance: a simpler system requiring less technical intervention.
• Ease of use: quick and intuitive operation.
• Better loading angle: ideal for low vehicles.
• More compact: saves space and optimises vehicle use.

In summary, rear floor articulation is a robust, practical and economical solution, perfectly suited to professionals looking for simplicity and efficiency.

The advantages of hydraulic ramps:

Hydraulic ramps remain a highly effective alternative for certain specific uses. In particular, they offer:

• Two individual ramps: which adapt to the widths of the vehicles to be loaded.
• Independently adjustable length: greater flexibility depending on the type of vehicle.
• Improved loading angle: while maintaining the total length of the platform.

These ramps are ideal for professionals who load a variety of vehicles and require a more flexible and modular solution.

Which solution should you choose?

The choice depends above all on your activity and your priorities:

• Are you looking for lightness, compactness and ease of use? → Opt for the rear floor articulation.
• Do you need flexibility and adaptability for different vehicles? → Hydraulic ramps will be more suitable.

At FIAULT INDUSTRIE, we will help you find the solution that best suits your needs.
