"Intelligent load securing: iGurt; cargo area monitoring"
Presentation by Katharina Kermelk,
B.Eng., M.Sc., BPW Bergische Achsen KG, Wiehl
Transport damages caused by poorly-secured freight are routine in the transport business; serious accidents and damages to the load frequently occur due to rolling and tipping truck trailers. BPW is now tackling one of the main causes with intelligent cargo restraints: the iGurt checks and documents the tension of the lashing strap and promises massive savings.
