In intermodal transport, the kingpin component is essential in terms of safety, speed of loading and costs. In order to better fulfil the high logistics requirements in the intermodal sector and at the same time achieve greater safety in the trailer loading process, real-time monitoring of the kingpin offers enormous advantages.
More safety
- Reliable additional detection of the kingpin status (regardless of weather and visibility conditions)
- Warning in the event of unsafe transport status
› Email to terminal for shunting journeys
› Email to railway undertakings for trackside journeys
› Optional: information to the train driver via in-train communication
Less costs
- Detecting and preventing misuse of the trestle (unloading without opening the lock)
- Proof of the damage caused (location and time)
› Responsibility for damage and assumption of costs by the party responsible
› Follow-up training to prevent future damage
Higher quality
- Improvement along the transport chain by ensuring the correct function of the king-pin both at a standstill and during travel
- Early detection of mechanical support frame defects
› Locomotive no longer latches
› Locomotive does not remain reliably locked during travel - Optimized maintenance and servicing measures on the trestle
