Wabco to supply telematics technology to Kögel 15 June 2012

Wabco has expanded its long-term partnership with Kögel through a new supply agreement for its TrailerGuard telematics for trailer fleet management.

TrailerGuard combines telematics with trailer diagnostics, with Internet portal and fleet management system integration capabilities.

Fleet managers can monitor brake wear, mileage, temperature inside a refrigerated trailer, doors, tyre pressure, axle load and the trailer's EBS (electronic braking system). It also enables a vehicle to be located in real time.

"We are proud to offer [Wabco's] award-winning TrailerGuard system as a premium telematics solution to meet the needs of our customers in Europe," says Thomas Heckel, CEO and managing director at Kögel.

"Wabco's TrailerGuard sets the transport industry's benchmark for helping our customers to further optimise use of their assets through improved vehicle safety and efficiency," he adds.
