VPG Onboard Weighing introduced the second generation VanWeigh axle overload monitoring system, an overload protection and load optimization system for light commercial vehicles.
Defined by two key measurements, yield strength and percent elongation, steel is being evaluated by a growing number of fleet managers.
Axle capacities are limited either by the axle capacity or the legal weight limits, whichever is lower. Performing a weight distribution analysis can achieve the proper axle loadings before a truck is built.
While cost remains an obstacle to widespread acceptance of carbon-body trucks, this lightweight, durable, and strong material can facilitate fleet vehicle downsizing, promote fuel-efficient engines, and help extend lifecycles.
