Making Electric-hydraulic Tipper Trailer

I used a 12v hydraulic power supply that comes from a tail lift from a small van, The power supply has a built-in section divider, which makes it easy to install. To control the power supply I used a relay and a 12v winch pilot and receiver, and a 12v 20ah gel battery.
The hydraulic trailer can be attached to any vehicle, mower tractor, quad and car. Dump trailer the maximum weight it lifts is about 400 kg, limited by the strength of the wheels, if not for the wheels, it would be possible to easily transport and unload larger loads

Love the "pallet width" feature, very clever. Fantastic construction, I hope it helps a lot!

[@WorkshopFromScratch]

Thank you 😁

[@CharlesSibamyoni]

Bro! I'm mesmerized

[@paulg1827]

I'm a cabinetmaker of 35 years, shop full of tools, but the wrong medium.......enjoyed watching!

[@ElectricGears]

That is a very nice design. One thing I would suggest is to cover the pump and battery with a solar panel which will protect them from the weather and keep the battery topped up without having to think about it. You might also be able to find an old tool box to mount them in which could also be a place for the remote control. I'm thinking of those tool boxes which would be deep enough, but then have a removable tray to cover the battery/motor and it could hold other small stuff.

[@ur_quainmaster7901]

This is a good idea! Every spot on my property that gets a mower, tractor, atv, etc parked in has a solar powered battery tender connection. That and flat tires are such a pain in my ass that I mounted a 12v battery and air compressor to a dolly... Has jumper cables just in case after one of the battery tender wires oxidized and that battery was dead even after being on a damn charger. Also has a shelf for a little 79cc 2 stroke harbor freight 700w generator but I haven't needed that for anything yet. I have grid power available in most spots but why have the constant drain when solar is sufficient.

[@HappilyHomicidalHooligan]

In addition to the above modifications, I suggest adding a second set of tailgate connections to the front of the trailer so when you take the tailgate off the back, you can hang it on the front face of the trailer so you don't lose it, forget it and when you've offloaded whatever you took the gate off for, you can immediately put it back on the rear so you can then load more lose material (gravel, sand etc.) without having to go all they way back to wherever you left the gate...

[@Wingnut_Stickman]

Couple ideas to improve -- Build a hanger on the front face to hold the tailgate when it is not installed. And Install chains on the tailgate so you can limit the opening and control the spreading of product, like a dump truck does, Excellent video! Thank you for sharing!

[@justicefall1917]

Another awesome build! I never get tired of watching your skills and workmanship! Thank you very much for sharing!!!

[@WorkshopFromScratch]

Thank you 😁

[@jjock3239]

What a superb design, followed by excellent construction technique. I have a trailer, but if I needed to build one, this is what I would use as a model.

[@rgthomson1]

I was rebulding a trailer last week and i sure wish i had access to the great workshop and tools you have there, you also have all the gear and great ideas, great workmanship

[@johnrussell5180]

Exceptional fabrication. I see you have bunches of high-end tooling machinery, but you obviously also have the knowledge to operate them. Best work I have seen in a long time!

[@kameljoe21]

Super. I would change one thing and that is when the line comes in at the ram on the top. Put a hard line down to the pivot point this way the line only needs to move a small amount and the flex would be limited. Other than that a super build! Love it.

[@donaldstrishock3923]

ALL That WORK,and NO SUSPENSION;= PRIMITIVE PERFECTION.

[@crazymtbrider]

I have to say I quite enjoyed the drive to dump the cuttings while mowing but this makes dumping the cuttings more enjoyable! Please make a shute from the mower to the trailer for grass cuttings

[@SimonCoates]

Excellent workmanship and a very good trailer. But a safety warning: this needs a swivel hitch to prevent the towing vehicle from turning over if the tipper trailer fell over sideways. It's an easy bolt-on upgrade. Also requires a fuse or circuit breaker on the battery connection.

[@johncuervo3019]

Sounds excessive. Just don't tow or dumb on uneven grouf

[@mikel9567]

Clearly you don't know what you are talking about. Even commercially built dump trailers don't have a swivel hitch. Why, because it's a weak point. That trailer isn't big enough and doesn't raise high enough to worry about tipping.

[@larryenglish9292]

lol I'd be shocked if this trailer was capable of turning over a 4 wheeler or golfcart. how big do you think this trailer is? lol

[@metalanddust]

My old man had a tractor tipper go over once at 30’ high. This is sound advice. Possibly not as much of a worry as his

[@arcraider937]

LOL the design exceeds it's intended use .

[@mcmuskie2563]

Throughly enjoyed watching you work. Great skills & equipment!

[@brentonwilhelm6920]

Was absolutely mesmerised from beginning to end. Quality I can only dream of. Hats off to you sir.

[@WorkshopFromScratch]

Thank you 😁

[@pyro323]

Nice build. I'd recommend a charge circuit for the battery otherwise it will just discharge as you use it. Maybe a solar charger or just recharge it after each use.

[@WorkshopFromScratch]

Thank you 😁 First I have to fix the charging in the mower troctor 😂

[@yeagerxp]

Excellent work, next project turn the lawn mower into a small front end loader🤣 👍👍👍 . Thank you for sharing. Take care of yourself, be safe 🇨🇦

[@WorkshopFromScratch]

Thank you 😁 But with this front loader you gave me a good idea - Thank you 😁

[@ggrepoman]

Great build and craftsmanship. Now I'm guessing the location of the ram is due to the length of its stroke and a possible need to tip it straight up, but if positioned so that the ram is closer to the front it would allow for heavier loads to be dumped, while simultaneously reducing the power needed to raise and lower the tipper save your battery and pump. But in the end it works and for diy that's all that matters. Thumbs up from me.

[@Patriottoo2]

Well, that project didn't take very long to build, but I would have painted it green. 😀 Handy little trailer... well done! Appears you have a bit of "scratch" invested in the workshop tools.

[@WorkshopFromScratch]

Thank you 😁 Troktorek mower is red that's why I painted it a similar color 😁 I try to save and buy tools all the time they are not always good quality tools but the most important thing is that they do their job :)

[@Patriottoo2]

@@WorkshopFromScratch No need to justify the color you chose... I was just joking with you. I'm jealous of your tools. Cheers!

[@dav1dsm1th]

Great video. I hope the fittings on the hydraulic ram don't get knocked off - as they seem to be the lowest part of the lift mechanism - maybe some small skid plates to protect them would protect them. Stay safe out there.

[@WorkshopFromScratch]

Thank you 😁 There is more clearance between the mount and the ground than it looks in the video 😁

Too nice , I think the kids will enjoy working while you watch them loading it with spades. I think you could have just lifted it off the hitch and tip it out lol , it's so small , sure the kiddies will enjoy their new toy. Very beautiful but you should make a bigger one for the big boys toys. Sure it's going to come in very handy in the paddock. I would really thinking of upgrading the axles though.

[@WorkshopFromScratch]

[@MultiBigDenis]

in the places where the tie rod was screwed, it was worth strengthening the holes and putting the bosses inside, in fact, almost the entire load falls on these two bolts, and over time they will bend the profile pipe ... it would also be nice to strengthen the welding points of the hydraulic cylinder mount and the hinged mount of the body ...

[@WorkshopFromScratch]

It is a trailer which, due to its dimensions, will not carry loads greater than 300,400 kg, so there is still an excess of material that I used

[@billybike57]

Awesome design & assembly 👍🏼

@Workshop From Scratch - tray to use hidráulica traction 2 wheels permanently on traditional gearbox, and 2 wheels with hidráulic traction.

[@AaronEngineering]

That will come in very handy. Good job 👍

[@WorkshopFromScratch]

Thank you 😁

[@DanKoning777]

*Excellent!* I couldn't give this a "thumbs up" fast enough. Question regarding the sides: is there a specific reason, or advantage for the having angles vs straight sides? Is it to strengthen the box, or does it dump wet material easier without clogging? I also liked the latches you used-they're very similar to those on my trailer. [I think I shared a link with you at one point in the past on a previous build]. Anyway, great job-as always. *God bless.*

[@WorkshopFromScratch]

Thank you 😁 As for the slanted sides, it's mainly about larger capacity, thus not increasing the dimensions and wheelbase in the trailer, if I was making a larger trailer, I would use ordinary straight sides :)

[@bobandrews9940]

I think the widening sides also act as fenders if making a larger, road worthy version.

you should add a section of chain on each side of the gate with a notch on the gate to allow you to limit the width of the opening so you can spread material rather than just dumping the entire load in one place.

[@jackspratt4343]

Brilliant. Can I ask what happens if the pump had no power half way through the "lifting / tipping " cycle. Does it stop in mid air ? Or would the tipper fall back down under gravity? Many thanks.

[@WorkshopFromScratch]

Thank you 😁 It is a mini power supply that comes from a van, has a built-in section divider, pressure protection, i.e. everything that can be found in a large hydraulic system, if there is no electricity, the lifting will stop in place and it will not rise or fall
