HGV Reversing Safety With Auto Braking!

January 24th, 2023 Comments off

Positives About HGV Auto Braking / Reversing Safety System CV Stop! The system is the only one in the world that applies the rear service brake, (not the Park Brake). If using the park brake in on or off with no graduation, we see this causing driver discomfort and also is damaging to the vehicles drive train components. Our system is the only radar based auto braking system using the new 77ghz standard in the UK – (new regulations come into effect from 2022, meaning any radar based automotive system fitted after this date must conform.)

Our system electronically pulses braking like EBS and can be programmed from soft too hard to suit all weights and applications. Enabling no risk of invalidating vehicle warranty. Also, communicating using CAN to detect vehicle speed the system will cut the throttle to idle milliseconds before the brakes are applied, again reducing hash braking resulting in engine stall and ensures the driver cannot power through the brake. Driver has a push button disable for a programmed time, this allows reversing into narrow roads / alleyways, the system button blinks during disable period to warn the driver brake function is in sleep mode. Most of all radar is a far superior component to ultra-Sonics, we have used sonics in the past but see nothing but problems once fitted with dirt, rain, snow plus unforeseen environmental changes causing many false triggers.

DVSA New Brake Testing Standard!

November 17th, 2022 Comments off

DVSA has reminded operators that from 1 January 2023, it will refuse to perform annual roadworthiness for most vehicles and trailers if presented unladen.

There are limited exemptions: including tri-axle semitrailers, and refuse collection vehicles.

In most circumstances, to achieve maximum adhesion between the brake tester roller and the tyre, vehicles must be loaded to at least 65 per cent of their design axle weights with cargo or ballast to achieve this. Otherwise, a premature lock-up may prevent an accurate reading. Brake actuation pressure will also be maximised.

The traffic commissioners and DVSA have placed great emphasis on the importance of brake testing since the 2014 Bath tipper tragedy, with the support of all industry bodies.

DVSA says the effort is paying off. In 2014, 3.3 per cent of heavy goods motor vehicles failed their annual test on service brake performance. In the last quarter of 2021, that had reduced to 1.88 per cent.

PMI Roadworthiness tests with a HGV Brake Testers / Decelerometer as an alternative.
