Still supporting the driver
March 1st 2006

Further increasing the safety of its electric RX 20, RX 50 and RX 60 trucks, Still has developed Assistance Truck Control (ATC), a package of components that supports the driver in the safe, efficient handling of the truck.

Modules in the ATC package include: seat belt monitoring, steering angle, controlled speed reduction and a parking brake release warning.

The seat belt monitoring allows order picking at low speeds without fastening the seat belt. A switch in the lock of the belt detects whether the belt is fastened or not. If the safety belt is not locked, the maximum speed is reduced.

As well as enhancing safety, this increases efficiency as the driver can leave and mount the truck quickly when the belt is not fastened.

Through the speed being controlled according to the steering angle, the driver is aided in making full use of the potential of the truck, resulting in increased performance.

The speed reduction is individually set for each truck type and was determined by extensive testing. during travel without load through curves, the stability of the truck is ensured. This means even untrained drivers benefit.
