Phillips Connect made several announcements to help fleets and drivers benefit from smarter trailers, including new smart nosebox gateways, backup cameras, and a partnership with Utility to launch the Utility Connect trailer telematics system.
The telematics push into trailers has been slow coming. But, experts say, this cutting-edge technology will soon change trailer maintenance and freight management forever.
Phillips Connect's SmartLock Gladhand and SmartLock Door are designed to safeguard trailer loads, ensuring that only authorized persons can move or unload the trailer the products are attached to.
Phillips Connect’s CargoVision camera monitors and can report whether a load is safe or unsafe before the doors are open for unloading.
A new partnership aims to bring Phillips Connect devices, sensors, dashboards, and reporting to ERoad customers.
How will an autonomous truck know what's happening in the trailer behind it? “Autonomous trucks don’t work without a smart trailer," says Phillips Connect Technologies.
Jon Morrison, previously the longtime president of Wabco Americas, has been tapped by Phillips Connect as strategic executive.
Phillips Connect will be using new tire pressure sensors that are more efficient, give quick feedback of data, reduce cost and complexity, and do not have to be removed to add air to the tire.
HDT’s Top 20 products this year clearly illustrate how technology is increasingly being used to help address fleet issues such as maintenance, safety, productivity, and fuel economy.
Phillips Connect Technologies showed off its TrailerNet, ChassisNet, and ContainerNet trailer telematics platforms at the annual meeting of the Technology & Maintenance Council of the American Trucking Associations in Atlanta March 17.
