Trucking Industry Features More Advancements in Technology

Sunday, August 29th, 2010

In a recent FixonRoad.com™ blog entry, it was reported that tractor trailer and body makers have been increasing spending on research and development to advance truck parts and truck products to improve efficiency.

Steerable Axles Truck Parts

Powered steerable axles are in the works as well. These innovative truck parts allow long box trailers to go where they were unable to go before and should also reduce truck repair and service due to less wear and tear.

Here is some more information about advancements in the trucking industry aimed at improving the trucking industry as a whole.  A new hybrid dump trailer is on the way and if it passes the truck testing standards – it may start production later this year.

The state of the art designed flat/half-round profile will yield 2 cubic yards more volume than a traditional straight half-round trailer of the same length.  It also weighs a lot less.

Powered steerable axles are in the works as well.  These innovative truck parts allow long box trailers to go where they were unable to go before and should also reduce truck repair and service due to less wear and tear.  Also, the chip trailers carry wood waste from left over timber cutting and transport it to co-generation plants to assist in the production of electricity.

Trailers are being modified to be more stable.  Tandem trailers feature all wheels of the truck remaining on the ground while the trailer rises.  This trucking modification makes the trailer more stable during tipping than other trucks whose forward axles rise with the body.
