General information
- Short Summary
-
The system offers 2-3 rear configurations to optimize the vehicle’s air drag coefficient based on actual loading:
With 88-94% loading, air drag decreases by 5-6%.
Below 94%, air drag drops by 9-10%.
It can be retrofitted as a kit for existing vehicles, with performance depending on the original model.
For new products, the system can be integrated natively, allowing for further optimization. - Full Description
-
This engineering company has patented a system to reduce air drags on trailors for heavy duty lorries.
The system needs to be industrialized with industrial partners :
- For the kit business, with specialized companies and/or investors that want to develop this new business
- by integrating the system on new trailor generation, with existing trailor companies which want to propose a breakthrough new product and solution that also contributes to achieve the Vecto target by providing a significant energy saving to their current products. - Advantages and Innovations
- The system enables to save 5 to 6 % of energy consumption (fuel, bio-fuel, electricity) in certain configurations that can be used when the trailor is loaded up to 88%. When the load is 100% current transportation capacity is utilized and no fuel reduction is done.
