The system is mounted under the rear axle of the truck next to the wheels. With the help of compressed air, an arm goes out towards the truck's tires where the sprocket begins to spin. The chain is thrown under the tire, which means that the truck has better friction and grip as a result. But also that the stopping distance will be shorter. The system is activated at the push of a button in the cab and then deactivated in the same way. Having accessibility when you need it quickly is a success factor and increases safety along the roads. Add to that the financial aspects of reaching their customers on time and minimizing the risk of downtime.
