Product Overview
JSIE 28m³ Aluminum Flour Tanker – Efficient Bulk Flour Transportation
Designed for hygienic, high-capacity logistics, the JSIE 28m³ aluminum flour tanker is the optimal solution for bulk flour loading and transport. Whether you operate a flour mill, a large bakery, or a food distribution fleet, this tanker ensures safe, contamination‑free delivery with exceptional durability and unloading efficiency.
Premium Features for Reliable Flour Logistics
1. Food‑Grade & Hygienic Construction
The tank is manufactured from food-grade aluminum alloy, which resists corrosion and does not react with flour. The interior features a K8 high‑smoothness finish – an ultra‑smooth surface that minimizes residue, simplifies cleaning, and prevents bacterial growth, meeting strict food safety standards.
2. Optimal Bulk Capacity
With a true 28 m³ volume, this tanker transports approximately 15 tons of bulk flour per trip, significantly reducing the number of loads required for large‑scale distribution. The lightweight aluminum structure also allows higher payload under legal weight limits.
3. Flexible Chassis Compatibility
The tank is engineered to mount seamlessly on HINO, ISUZU, or other comparable chassis. Custom mounting brackets and chassis adaptations are available to suit your existing fleet.
4. Multi‑Compartment Design
Standard configuration comes with 4 compartments, enabling transport of different flour types (e.g., bread flour, pastry flour) in a single trip. Compartment numbers and sizes are customizable based on your delivery needs.
5. Proven Reliability – JSIE Brand
Backed by years of engineering expertise, JSIE bulk transport equipment is trusted in the food logistics industry for its robust construction, low maintenance, and long service life.

FAQS
1. Is the JSIE aluminum flour tanker suitable for other food powders besides flour?
Yes. The food-grade aluminum alloy with K8 high-smoothness finish makes it ideal for various bulk food powders, such as starch, milk powder, sugar, cocoa powder, and baking ingredients. However, we recommend cleaning thoroughly between different product types to avoid cross‑contamination.
2. What is the unloading method? Can it use a pneumatic system?
The tank is designed for pneumatic (positive pressure) discharge. A typical working pressure of 0.2–0.3 MPa ensures gentle and fast unloading of bulk flour – approximately 1.2–1.5 tons per minute depending on pipeline length. A truck‑mounted blower or external compressor can be connected.
3. Can the tanker be mounted on chassis other than HINO or ISUZU?
Absolutely. While our design is optimized for HINO, ISUZU and similar Japanese truck chassis, we can customize mounting brackets and adapt the tank to Volvo, MAN, Mercedes‑Benz, Scania, Dongfeng, Shacman, or any standard 2‑axle or 3‑axle chassis. Please provide your chassis model for a tailored solution.
4. How many compartments does the tank have? Can I change the number?
The standard configuration comes with 4 compartments. However, the compartment number is customizable – you may choose 2, 3, 4, or even more, depending on your delivery routes and product segregation needs. We can also adjust compartment volumes to your required ratios.
5. Is the interior truly easy to clean? How smooth is K8 grade?
Yes. The K8 high‑smoothness finish refers to a surface roughness value ≤ 0.8 µm Ra (mirror‑like). This ultra‑smooth surface leaves almost no flour residue, prevents caking, and allows quick wash‑down with water or compressed air – saving cleaning time and reducing contamination risk.
6. What is the empty weight of the 28m³ aluminum tank? Does it improve payload?
The empty tank weight (excluding chassis) is approximately 1,800–2,200 kg depending on compartment configuration and accessories. Compared to a steel tank of the same volume (≈3,500+ kg), the aluminum version offers 1,300–1,700 kg weight saving, directly increasing legal payload by the same amount – typically allowing an extra 1.5–2 tons of flour per trip.
7. What safety features are included against overpressure?
Every JSIE flour tanker is equipped with a spring‑loaded safety relief valve and a bursting disc (rupture disk) set at 0.4 MPa. Additionally, a low‑pressure warning whistle and a manual pressure release valve are standard to prevent over‑pressurization during unloading.
8. Can I get a custom paint color or logo on the tank?
Yes. We offer OEM customization including your company name, logo, and any RAL color code on the tank exterior. The paint used is weather‑resistant polyurethane suitable for food‑contact areas. Custom decals and reflective stripes are also available.
