Schaffhausen and Zug, 09 February 2021 +++ The\u00a0TRANSWAGGON Group<\/strong><\/a>, headquartered in Zug, Switzerland is continuing to press ahead with its fleet digitalization \u2013 and is equipping its entire fleet of 13,500 freight wagons with\u00a0SAVVY\u00ae Telematic Systems<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0devices. By taking this step, TRANSWAGGON is extending its cooperation with the telematics and sensory solutions provider: During the next three years, another 7,000 SAVVY\u00ae CargoTrac ExR MI telematics units will be installed, so that the entire fleet is equipped with the devices. Along the entire route, the devices provide data such as precise GPS\/GNSS position data in real-time. Thanks to this, TRANSWAGGON and its customers gain full transparency concerning the position of the wagons \u2013 from loading to unloading. This makes it possible to plan and process goods transports more efficiently. TRANSWAGGON, the most flexible logistics partner for rail freight solutions, has been developing customized innovative, climate-neutral and reliable shipping solutions for its customers since 1965.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n

TRANSWAGGON leases out part of its fleet to a logistics provider that specializes in rail transport for the Scandinavian lumber industry. To be used in northern Europe, the telematics units have to withstand the harshest climatic conditions. The batteries in SAVVY\u00ae devices work reliably, even in temperatures up to \u2013 40 degrees Celsius. The telematic units are not only very robust, they determine the position with an accuracy of up to two meters. At more than 1,000 points of interest (POI), such as loading and unloading stations or shunting yards, the software automatically calculates the distance to the next ten POIs.<\/p>\n

This makes it possible for transport planners to maintain an overview of all their shipments and the exact position of each individual wagon. This seamless tracking & tracing enables TRANSWAGGON’s customers to organize their processes more efficiently. In addition, they benefit from increased shipping safety. SAVVY\u00ae CargoTrac-ExR MI devices have shock detectors: built-in sensors detect vibrations for which threshold values can be defined in x-, y-, and z- directions. If a threshold value is exceeded, the engine driver and the planner can immediately receive a notification.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cAfter our very good experiences so far, we are looking forward to the second large project phase. The goal is to have all of our freight wagons digitalized with SAVVY\u00ae devices by 2023. This means that we can provide our customers with a state-of-the-art telematics solution that helps them to continuously improve their logistics processes. SAVVY\u00ae Telematic Systems has proven itself to be an excellent partner, one that works with us proactively and constructively to obtain best-possible solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n
