Tracking trailers involves unique technical challenges, mainly due to intermittent power availability. Our advanced trailer tracking solution addresses these issues with innovative approaches, such as intelligent power management and autonomous solar-powered devices.
Since trailers often rely on power from a cab or tractor unit, tracking becomes complicated when they are disconnected and idle. We employ several strategies to overcome this. In situations where power is sporadic but frequent, high-capacity batteries and intelligent power management enable devices to function independently for up to six months, automatically recharging when connected to a power source. Our solar-powered units utilise sunlight to keep rechargeable batteries operational indefinitely.
Trailer tracking devices must be durable and waterproof, given their typical external installation. All supported devices are IP-rated to withstand various conditions. Our solar-powered devices even fit within the corrugations of standard shipping containers for added protection.
Leverage our analytics capabilities to understand trailer utilisation better, identify excess trailers or optimise deployment across different depots. Tracking trailer locations aids in planning maintenance, inspections, and understanding door operations to detect potential criminal activity.
We offer technology that automatically identifies trailers when coupled to tractor units, streamlining location and usage data. For trailers consistently paired with specific tractor units, a manual association can be created to save on automatic identification costs.
