    Hello Dr. Islam, great conceptualization and a very promising engineering execution. I wish you and your team would create a great steering-maneuvering system in the post euro modular era of European Transportation.

    Im not sure about this. Look at 3:56 .. The second trailer is coming out far into oncoming, could lead to bad situations especially on winter roads no?

    • @danielrose1392
      @danielrose1392 Před 7 lety +8

      Check the on screen comments, so far they run it with a single optimization goal not considering that. There are situations where the trailer has to go out that far because it otherwise would not fit, but it should definitely not be the default way of turning.

    • @rosen9425
      @rosen9425 Před 5 lety +1

      Doesn't matter. They are trying to push the limits of minimum legal turning circle requirements with this combo. Roads aren't built with trucks in mind anyway, so there's always a lack of space in all but few roundabouts. People just need to understand that trucks take up a lot of space and have legal rights to use all available space present, in a safe manner.
      I'm more worried about the wheels. Takes a hell of a beating and won't last long.

  • @andyduhamel1925
    @andyduhamel1925 Před 5 lety +2

    Looking at the wheels of the steering dolly and third axle on second trailer,it is clear there is scope for wheel loss and accelerated wear from side forces greater than rotational direction.

    • @simonnyman9031

      These HCT combinations already drive around in Finland without any dolly steering, works fine.

  • @TeriWilde
    @TeriWilde Před 6 lety +7

    rear steering on the tri-axle trailers would also improve the turning circle of this combination.. or didn't the designers think of that...

    • @greendude96
      @greendude96 Před 6 lety +6

      I would like to think that the designers thought of using the system with existing trailers without the steering axles for maximum interoperability...

    • @timward500
      @timward500 Před 6 lety +4

      the system is designed to be used with conventional trailers to make it as versatile as possible, you can use it on any trailers then rather than having to go to the expense of having specialised trailers as well

    • @johnobrien2207
      @johnobrien2207 Před 6 lety

      I like to test drive two trailer set up with the fifth wheel on the lead trailer .It make it easy for reversing .Can the drive control the steering in the dolly of this combination .It make it more easy to reverse .

    • @simontaylor2319
      @simontaylor2319 Před 6 lety +1

      I agree with you Teri. Self-tracking or rear steer axles have been around since at least the 60's, from companies such as Primrose-Ceshi, Merriworth and BPW. They reduce tyre ware by reducing scrub, cause less damage to tarmac and reduce cut in, either forward or in reverse. I think they should become mandatory, especially if UK trailers increase in length, which will happen

    • @johnobrien2207
      @johnobrien2207 Před 6 lety

      Ofc, HCT combinations aren't suitable for all kinds of driving, best used on long hauls with big roads

  • @MclarenHunter
    @MclarenHunter Před rokem +1

    Why not just implement this on the trailer itself like we have in Australia and New Zealand. Usually the last 2 axles on our quads are steerers with a similar concept and reduces turning circle with added benefit of reduced tyre wear

    • @SkibidiEugensson
      @SkibidiEugensson Před 4 měsíci

      That's what European trailers do as well. It is not very effective on tight European roads when you have to take a sharp turn with a tandem.

    Smaller lighter automobiles sharing the roads with larger, much heavier trucks. As a trucker now retired I would not be completely comfortable with the odds. Little matters as long as the profit margin increases relatively steadily I suppose.

  • @111jacare
    @111jacare Před 3 lety

    To start with, the rear overhang on the trailers goes a long way to steering the dolly to track wider. Second, the dolly steering system could get you into trouble with the long front overhang that is favoured in Europe.
    A further observation is made from about 13 years ago. An Australia operator had a trailer that had a steering tri axle group, which steered outside of the width of the trailer. This had to be used carefully, as if not careful, you could wipe out a car that is parked on the side of the road.

    It’s less jobs, two trailers one driver. We are already exploited enough the proliferation of mega trucks is unsafe for us and traffic

    Irgendwie für europäische Strassen sinnlos, denn sowas dürfte nie zugelassen werden.
    Das überholen ist höchst riskant - OHNE Begleitfahrzeug dürfte sowas sowieso nie auf die Strasse + somit hat sich der Vorteil schon wieder erledigt, denn man benötigt wieder eine zweite Person. Einzig eine Zugmaschine ist einzusparen....
    Ob sich das rentiert....

    • @felix_d5412
      @felix_d5412 Před 6 lety

      Die sind 6,5 m länger, als das, was bisher zugelassen ist. Wer da nicht sicher überholen kann, der kann es auch bei den jetzigen LKW nicht und sollte es dann halt sein lassen.

    • @sparkydog2
      @sparkydog2 Před 6 lety

      Stimmt nicht - sieht man ja im Video, dass dieses Gefährt um eine komplette Sattellänge länger ist.
      Auch die bereits im Einsatz stehenden Gigaliner dürfen nur auf bestimmten Routen unterwegs sein, weil das überholen zu gefährlich ist!

    • @felix_d5412
      @felix_d5412 Před 6 lety

    • @felix_d5412
      @felix_d5412 Před 6 lety

      Der Autor deines Links hat offensichtlich keine Ahnung von Physik und Technik: Höhere Gewichte bedeuten nicht höhere Bremswege. Das sieht man schon daran, dass die Bremswege von LKW nicht höher sind, als die von PKW. Auch die Bremswege von Gigalinern sind nicht höher, als die eines ganz normalen PKW.

      @Engineer9736 Před 6 lety

      John Coleman You just have to get adjusted to it i guess. It's the same process as the very first time you drove with a trailer - Learning where the very rear ends up when turning. But with steerable dollies it will be much in your favor.
