New trends
The "IAA Transportation 2022" surprised with trends whose rapid implementation had not been expected so far. One thing is already certain: the future of trucks will increasingly be electric. And the issue of sustainability will play an increasingly important role for more and more logistics companies. In the field of tarpaulin technology, Edscha TS proved that it is still rightly at the forefront of its market segment.
Professional sliding roof system
With the SB-Profi, tarpaulin specialist Edscha TS showed how already successful solutions can be further developed and optimized. The new improvements in quality and function put the SB-Profi in the front row when tarpaulin systems with great flexibility are required. The SB-Profi is a further developed sliding bar tarpaulin for vehicles without a body, but with a tarpaulin cover, and is based on what is known as "one-man operation". A single person can very quickly uncover the entire loading area from the ground. This enables rapid loading and unloading from all sides and from above. The patented product offers tarpaulin-lifting cross-connections and long-lasting rollers that run on a robust flat iron rail and allow the tarpaulin to be moved on both sides. Tension straps can easily be passed behind the rail under the frame.
QuickCurtain - faster, better, easier
Visitors to the trade fair were treated to a little speed experience during the presentation of QuickCurtain, a new fast side curtain from Edscha TS. The main features of QuickCurtain also include convenient operation without the need for climbing, with very smooth and fast opening of the side curtain in about one minute. The side curtain achieves this speed because it runs on rollers both at the top and bottom and does not require insertion boards. . The rollers are guided by solid and very robust steel roller rails. And there is another special feature: During installation, the usual 20 or so dead center tensioners in the curtain and separately operated stanchions are completely dispensed with. QuickCurtain is aimed at the user who has to open and close a normal side curtain many times a day and wants to minimize the amount of work involved. The fact that Edscha TS is on the right track with QuickCurtain is shown by the extremely strong interest in this fast side curtain with "flair".
Sustainable quality and function
Technological expertise and inventiveness on the part of its developers characterize the sustainability efforts at Edscha TS. In the future, for example, 100% recyclable roof tarpaulins made of PP will be used, with no loss of quality or service life. The new tarpaulins can be adapted to all CS roofs and can also be installed cost-efficiently by the customer. On request, the tarpaulins can be supplied together with a tarpaulin kit. Another example is new roof stiffeners with universal lengths for greater safety in individual applications and repairs. Here, the roof stiffener consists of fabric tape with an open end and can be easily processed. The clamping element used is safe and proven. Function and force transmission are the same as with the version with steel cables.
Looking forward to the "TransportLogistic 2023“
For Edscha TS, the principle of developing products that are geared to practical applications, that can be operated quickly and safely, and that save time and money continues to apply. This also includes factors such as quality and investment security. Not to be forgotten are the dialog with the customer and the ability to observe developments in the economy and society and to draw the right conclusions from them. All this makes the decision in favor of an Edscha TS tarpaulin system easy and right. Reason enough to already look forward to "TransportLogistic 2023", where Edscha TS will certainly present its latest ideas for the logistics industry again.
