Kantatyypeissä

Kantatyypeissä is a Finnish term that broadly refers to types of trucks or lorries, particularly those designed for specific functions or carrying capacities. It's not a single, strictly defined technical classification but rather a general descriptor used in everyday language and within the logistics industry to categorize different kinds of heavy vehicles.

Within this umbrella term, one might find distinctions based on the vehicle's intended use. For example, a "lava-kantatyypeissä" would refer to a flatbed truck, suitable for carrying general cargo, machinery, or construction materials. A "tankki-kantatyypeissä" would denote a tanker truck, used for transporting liquids such as fuel, water, or milk. "Kaato-kantatyypeissä" could describe a dump truck, characterized by its open-box bed that is hinged at the rear and equipped with hydraulic rams to lift the front, allowing the material to be dumped out.

Other common categorizations might relate to the number of axles or the overall weight the truck is designed to carry. For instance, a smaller, lighter truck might be referred to differently than a heavy-duty articulated lorry. The context in which "kantatyypeissä" is used often clarifies the specific type of truck being discussed, drawing on common understanding of vehicle appearances and functions. It's a flexible term that encompasses the diverse world of trucks used for transportation and hauling in Finland.
