Allison Helps European City Clean Efforts to Develop Argentine Market

A few days ago, garbage truck solutions provided by Urbaser (called "Transportes Olivos" in Argentina ), Iveco, and Allison were promoted to Argentina and were successfully piloted. In the field test in Buenos Aires, it was proved that the efficiency was increased by 32%.

According to the engineers of Allison Transmission, Urbaser, Iveco and Allison's joint efforts in Europe successfully met the needs of end users. Therefore, the three cooperative companies decided to promote this successful case to Argentina and took the lead in piloting a fully automated Iveco Eurocargo 170E22 truck in the capital Buenos Aires. "It takes less time to collect more waste. This is an Allison automatic transmission that provides Argentina's garbage truck with an efficient, low-noise solution," he said.

The pilot project involved three companies working with Iveco dealer Aurélia in Buenos Aires to develop a prototype vehicle at the dealer's factory. As the results of the pilot project exceeded expectations, Iveco ( Argentina ) decided to develop a new Eurocargo 170E22 RSU automatic transmission on the basis of a European prototype. In 2009, after a lot of process design and product testing, at the plant in Córdoba, Argentina, Iveco made adjustments to the production line of the car. In April 2010, the first fully automated Eurocargo truck went offline.

Buenos Aires' garbage collection service companies favor efficient vehicles that collect more garbage in less time. And vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions undoubtedly increase productivity, reliability, durability and fuel economy. At the same time, the automatic garbage truck also has the important advantage of low maintenance costs and high vehicle utilization. Garbage trucks must be able to operate normally and efficiently over a useful life of approximately 4 to 10 years while at the same time reducing fleet maintenance costs.

Field trials show 32% improvement in Allison automatic truck work efficiency

In Buenos Aires, the Transportes Olivos garbage truck team conducted an assessment. An Iveco Eurocargo 170E22 prototype equipped with an Allison 3000 series transmission was delivered to the user for a 93-day actual use test. During the test period, this Allison automatic transmission model and another equivalent model with a manual transmission were compared and tested under the same time and working conditions.

Based on the data collected, the following conclusions are drawn:

According to the comparative test data, the automatic train (1.29 tons per working hour) is 32% more efficient than the manual train (0.97 tons per working hour) in terms of tons of garbage collected per working hour.

Allison and Iveco recently conducted a test drive test experience for many important garbage collection companies in Buenos Aires. During the event, customers have the opportunity to test drive the first production of Iveco Eurocargo 170E22 RSU garbage truck and experience the power of automatic transmission. Representatives of Iveco and Allison also performed spectacular vehicle performance demonstrations and work processes.

Double-Column Automatic Lifting Hopper Blender

The hopper lifting mixers currently used in Chinese manufacturers mostly adopt the single-arm or double-arm type box structure. During mixing, the rotary device is inside the box, taking large floor space, making installation difficult and increasing load on the ground. During material discharging after the mixing is completed, it is not easy to carry out in-place filling with the next procedure and a special lifting machine is needed to realize the filling procedure, which increases the operation space and enhance work intensity, making the costs far higher than those for column lifting mixers.

Double-column lifting hopper mixer. With small floor space, easy installation, availability of in-place filling, simplified operation procedure, reduced work intensity, enhanced work efficiency and stable performance, this machine is widely applied in such industries as medicine, chemical industry, food and health product, and its structural performance reaches the level of other products of its kind in the world.

Features:

●The operation of the Double Column Automatic Lifting Hopper Blender is very simple, convenient and fast. There are no complex operations such as aligning, clamping, etc. All operations are simplified into the automatic operation procedure of the equipment.

●Compared with former mixers, it saves more space, and its weight is far lower than that of traditional machines, so it is suitable for floor installation.

●The machine has a perfect safety protection system and the gyrator center of gravity is ensured to be within the range of the base. Therefore, it is ensured that the machine can rotate stably and reliably without vibration.

●The machine has an increased mixing angle, so that the movement of materials in the mixing barrel is enhanced, the possibility of material layering is reduced and the mixing evenness is improved.

●The machine is also provided with lifting function. The materials after mixing can be directly subject to in-place lifting and filling, so as to save the space, reduce the transferring process and lower work intensity.

●According to user requirements, it can also be additionally mounted with an automatic weighing system. This weighing system can be connected with PLC to automatically control feeding and filling, ensure consistent weight of materials to be filled and facilitate the measurement and the control of transferring batches.
