Efficiency and safety in container transport

The trailers have also undergone a complete facelift. SCB has opted for new side guards, a new in-house developed underride guard for optimised and more intuitive handling, as well as a more modern design. The rear extension now damped by throttle valves, also aids easier and more convenient handling. Modern and innovative stickers with clear pictograms simplify operation, making it quick and intuitive. QR codes attached to the chassis link to videos in which operations (e.g. rear extension, underride guard, container lock, front extension etc.) are clearly explained. A loading plan enables users to view the correct positioning of the container on the S.CF at a glance, thus avoiding loading delays.

All container semi-trailer chassis are fitted ex works with the TrailerConnect® telematics system and also with a tyre pressure control system (TPCS), taking into account the upcoming tyre pressure control system requirement in the facelift. SCB container semi-trailer chassis are extremely robust and corrosion-resistant as they are hot galvanised.

S.CF ALLROUND 20-45 with stand-alone generator set

With immediate effect, the S.CF ALLROUND 20-45 container semi-trailer chassis can be fitted ex works with an optional generator set. This guarantees a continuous stand-alone energy supply to the electrically operated transport cooling unit on the container over several days. Temperature-controlled freight is therefore reliably en route to customers, independently of external energy sources.

Schmitz Cargobull is working on this with its partner Genmark B.V., one of the leading manufacturers of generator sets, which also has a large service network in Europe. UM5 generator sets have been specifically adapted to the S.CF ALLROUND 20-45 and feature the maximum ground clearance of 30 cm on the market. Their protected installation position thus minimises the risk of damage.
