Amazing Machines: Trucks and How They Help Us
DREAM TRUCKS
In this day and age, truck makers realise that safety comes first – this has become their first priority.Truck manufacturers really have made extraordinary efforts to ensure that the driving experience is as safe as possible.Advances in technology mean that truck manufacturers have been able to create machines which are not only fast and reliable, but which can cope with the most hostile of terrains remaining ultimately safe to drive. The entire automotive industry manufacturing these trucks is a well oiled and very effective machine worthy of your attention.
The World Is Changing Fast
Whether you are a produce or hi-tech goods supplier, global raw material distributor, a manufacturer of any sort or a factory owner in Naples, you will almost without doubt be reliant on the trucking industry. Your company may find itself in need of tipper trucks, curtain side, flat bed trucks, graders, diggers, tippers or perhaps even just the tractor unit on its own. The upshot of it all is that without trucks almost all global enterprise would cease to exist. As companies continue to grow, developing world countries continue to develop and the people who live in this world continue to improve the surroundings in which they live - the demand for commercial trucking will not die down. In fact, the need for trucks has been growing consistently during the past decade. During the recession, demand fell for new truck orders due to obvious financial constraints, but the economy as a whole still relied on the use of trucks. That remained a constant requirement. Eastern, African and South American truck markets are growing steadily and this is a wonderful opportunity for truck construction companies to expand their share of this newer market.
Different Size Types of Trucks Available
There are many different types of trucks and not everyone may be aware of just how many variations of truck the manufacturers have to offer, especially small or medium size business owners who rely on the global logistics market every bit as much as the international construction and mining companies do.Manufacturers of trucks categorise them by the amount of weight they are capable of carrying. Trucks in the US are categorised into eight weight classes, ranging from the lightest at class one up the scale to class eight. For example, a Dodge Ram 3500 falls into a Class 2; a class 3 vehicle would be something like a Ford F-350. A GM C4500 falls under class 4, while the Ford F-550 is categorised class 5. Any truck which is bigger than a Ford F-750 or GM C8500 would probably be placed in the class 8 category.
Now, the business end of the truck is called the tractor unit. This is the bit which not only houses the engine and gearbox, but is also the cab of the truck and it has to pull the trailer as well! The trailers are usually built for purpose and ordered separately from the tractor. There are many different tractors and each has a specific purpose much the same as for trailers. Trailer manufacture is just as big an industry sector as that of the truck tractor itself. To give you an idea of the differences between types of truck the categories are as follows:
Light Duty Trucks – These trucks provide a lower capacity of storage. The light duty trucks are utility provider carriers; they transport many of the products we use in our homes on a daily basis.They deliver the things we need to build, improve and furnish our homes. If these trucks did not exist, we would not have many of the everyday items available to us which we so take for granted!
Main Models– These trucks are service trucks, dump trucks, flatbed trucks and the pickup trucks. These medium size model trucks are usually used for the lighter capacities of carrying and quickest way of transporting. Medium duty trucks have better carrying capacities than light trucks, and are used by most large companies for transporting goods between branches or depots. Some types of commercial trucks are: medium duty box trucks, bucket trucks, reefer trucks and rollback trucks. These are the most frequently used commercial trucks, which all types of companies and businesses use.
Large commercial trucksare also sometimes called articulated trucks, or Artics for short. They are called this because of their articulated design; the trailer can swivel on a hook, hinge or tow-bar. These are the big guys - the trucks that really just get on with the job. Growing up, I remember these as being called Mac trucks. This is actually the same as calling any vacuum cleaner a Hoover, though. Heavy-duty trucks or articulated dump trucks and graders are used heavily by both the construction industries and the transportation industries. They have a justified reputation for immense power and the performance to match, moving industrial sized mounds of earth or transporting thousands of tons of heavy machinery or raw materials such as iron and steel from suppliers to construction sites around the world.
Think of any need, application or location possible where a truck is in demand, and you will most likely come up with a few big names - JCB, Mack and Caterpillar are the big three which come to mind. Mack's reputation is built on the supply of the most reliable transporters, refuse trucks and construction trucks in the US. Mack trucks always deliver! Both Caterpillar and JCB build a huge range of ultra reliable articulated dump trucks and graders which operate under the harshest conditions imaginable from building schools to preparing runways in the harsh African sun, to operating in the world’s biggest diamond mines and coal mines in Russia or the world famous opal mines of the Australian outback. These wondrous gargantuan Goliaths do an important job without thanks, operate day and night and still get the job done quickly and safely each and every time. The tyres alone on these monster trucks often need to be made to order and can cost around twenty thousand pounds each. Replacements for machines out of operation often need to be flown into distant and sometimes hostile environments at a minute's notice, as down time on these machines can cost corporations and even governments many hundreds of thousands per day. Time really does equate to money in this game!
Heavy-duty cab chassis trucks, sleeper trucks and dump trucks are among the main types of these. These types of truck are commonly used in the construction and land development industries, for example.
Commercial trucks have various uses:
1. Transport of small and medium sized goods.
2. Transportation of fuels, liquids and gases in tankers.
3. Contributing in the development of residential construction.
4. Maintaining a safe community by playing their part in road construction.
5. Waste elimination.
6. Providing services for other companies or residential.
There is more to add to the list.The list could go on forever, as trucks of all sizes have such a big part to play in the development of any enterprise.
Some of the best names in the world of big trucks are Peterbilt, Mack, Kenworth, DAF, Renault, Mercedes, Freightliner trucks, Feterl Manufacturing Corporation. These truck companies supply some of the best looking and functioning trucks on the market. Their looks exhibit style, speed, sturdiness, flare, with a dash of uniqueness that puts them in a class of their own. New commercial trucks on the market by these manufacturers never fail to create a buzz in the global business world.
Trucks of all sizes and shapes are being advertised and sold primarily by these big-name commercial truck makers. They are responsible for a huge chunk of the supply of commercial trucks to both US and UK markets.Successful migration into the African, Asian and south American markets has been achieved as a result of huge efforts in truck brand recognition by the main players in the industry. Commercial trucks are changing the world, and hopefully for the better.
CEO and company managers worldwide strive to help improve our societies’ infrastructure by quickly moving everyday goods and perishable resources between company depots, from cities to rural areas as well as between countries, as is the case in Europe. Trucks are the only way our economies are still able to move forward in this fast-paced society. It is often neither cost effective nor logistically possible due to rail infrastructure to haul large amounts of freight across Europe and Britain.
Commercial trucks are easy to buy through expert distribution services worldwide made available by the big names in the trucking world. There are many franchised dealerships with strict supervision so that buyers always get the very best service, parts and equipment. Commercial truck providers are helping to improve communities and the hard working people who live in them.At the end of the day, commercial trucks bring results, and results go on to create jobs and more results.
A stable financial future for ourselves and for generations to come depends on continued economic growth. The economic depression experienced by the United States, Great Britain and across Europe has severely crippled truck and van sales. Smaller dealerships acting as representatives on behalf of big manufacturers have experienced crippling blows to order books and unprecedented returns of new trucks. The reason for this is simple economics: even after the reserve banks lowered their lending fees, small businesses were still being offered higher interest rates on truck loans than they could afford, forcing them to return the trucks, or risk financial ruin.
While some small businesses may no longer be able to consider purchasing a new truck, the flip side of the coin is that the market for used commercial vehicles in some sectors could actually see positive growth. Commercial vehicles play a part in so many types of operation. Whether you are a small enterprise starting out with a couple of Ford Transit Vans, perhaps a larger company needing to downsize to smaller vans, or maybe you are considering whether to buy a minibus to move workers between sites – the used commercial vehicle industry is yet another important facet of the truck industry as a whole.
All around the globe, the future of the truck industry is a bright one. By making their constant deliveries of building materials, consumer goods and food supplies, trucks keep our economy moving. Most truck drivers spend a lot of time away from home; spare a thought for the driver who may be many miles from home and family next time you see a big truck on the road.
