Terion Inc., Plano, Texas, has introduced Tractor ID, an enhancement to Terion’s FleetView Trailer Fleet Management System.

Tractor ID takes advantage of power line communications technology to identify the tractor hooked to any FleetView-equipped trailer. The FleetView unit can then report the tractor’s identification code and fleet code, or absence of an identifier, to dispatch based on configurable logic in the device.
Tractor ID reports when the wrong tractor picks up a trailer, alerts dispatchers to stolen loads when a trailer is hooked to an unidentified tractor, decreases misuse of trailers by other carriers or shippers, quantifies trailer usage in dedicated trailer fleets, identifies trailers unhooked and available for use and eliminates incorrect trailer information entered by drivers.
“Carriers need more information than just the location of their trailers,” said Todd A. Felker, vice president of sales and marketing at Terion. “The Terion FleetView technology platform was designed to ensure that our product could expand over time along with the needs of our customers. Tractor ID is the latest addition to the FleetView product suite that further enhances our value and shortens the return on investment.”
