At present, many of these models are mainly modified based on traditional cargo chassis, but for some areas with more space restrictions, the Scania L series low-entry cab model introduced next will definitely make a lot of Kayou was eye-opening. Features of
L series models:
There may be many card friends who know this low-entry driving transport model jointly produced by SCHMITZ and a truck manufacturer of a certain brand. Although the excellent working ability of this car is better than any current low-cab new model, it can no longer conform to the development trend of Industry 4.0 in terms of comprehensive ability.
For the Scania brand with a mature application of the modular production concept, the launch of an innovative model is also based on the upgrade of the main components of mass-produced popular models, so as to reduce the high cost of simply developing a model. Amount cost. Compared with flat-top cab models, the
L series models have stronger advantages in many logistics transportation and special engineering operations. It is a multi-purpose model that does not affect the normal driving environment of the driver. Historical development of
L series models:
● First-generation low-entry cab models:
Before 2003, Scania launched the P series daytime flat-topped narrow-body cab for trunk logistics and narrow driving areas, which will effectively leave The vertical height of the ground is controlled within 2.8m, which improves the transportation capacity in narrow areas, but the limited space in the cab cannot provide the driver with better comfort for long-distance driving.
In 2006, in order to improve the comprehensive transportation capacity of low-entry cab models, Scania launched models equipped with P series cabs, which was the beginning of the development of L series cab models.
It is not difficult to find from the appearance that the effective indoor space of this model is not much different from that of the traditional logistics models of the P series. The unique lengthened front suspension design effectively reduces the vertical height of the cab, and the secondary pedal design facilitates getting on and off the vehicle.
In order to meet the needs of short-distance drop-and-pull transportation and reduce the driver's work intensity, Scania is equipped with Allison 3000 series automatic transmissions for this series of short-distance transfer models.
● second-generation low-entry cab models:
In 2017, Scania launched a new low-entry cab model L series models, and Mercedes-Benz Econic, Volvo FE and other brands improved low-entry cab models Form a clear competitive advantage.
● cab:
L series provide diversified chassis configurations for cargo diversion, garbage collection and construction material transportation. The low-position design greatly reduces the transportation capacity, and the effective floor height above the ground is controlled at 93 cm, which is relatively 20 cm less than the first-generation P series low-entry models. In order to further make up for the blind spot vision, the middle position of the co-pilot door is made of transparent glass. The
L series of low-entry vehicles use the P series mid-top cab, which increases the applicable space compared to the traditional flat-top cab. The reason for adopting this type of cab is mainly considering the riding comfort for the staff in the special working environment. The indoor channel design is convenient for the normal activities of the occupants in the room. The
L series models can choose the DC09 inline 5-cylinder diesel engine and the series of CNG/LNG new energy engines. Four different power configurations of 230, 320, 340 and 360 horsepower can be selected. Optcuriser manual transmission and Allison series automatic transmissions can be selected. .
● Chassis layout:
At present, Scania has launched four models of 6x4/4x2 traction and 6x2/4x2 trucks with different power and configuration for different logistics and transportation needs.
Although other European commercial vehicle productsBrands have launched low-cab platform models for the needs of urban waste logistics transportation, especially in the existing transportation market environment, Scania’s new L-series low-entry cab models are still extremely competitive.
In January 2020, a gasoline transportation company headquartered in the port of Rotterdam, the capital, began to use the L series traction models, becoming the first transportation company in European countries to use this series of models.
This vehicle mainly provides on-site drop-and-hook connection work for drop-and-hook long-distance oil transportation vehicles. Due to the large demand for oil products, the drivers engaged in this cargo transportation on-site transportation get on and off the vehicle up to 70-80 times a day. This means that reducing driver fatigue in operating the vehicle is particularly important.
This model uses the new P series mid-high roof cab, and is equipped with a sleeper configuration suitable for the driver's daily rest. In order to improve the fuel economy of the vehicle, the top of the cab is equipped with a manually adjustable spoiler cover, and the low platform entrance design makes the driver get on and off the vehicle more freely.
low-entry cab in China:
presumably many card friends think that there is no such low-entry model in the Chinese market. In fact, as early as 2011, the country has begun to import Finnish Bronto (based on the P series low-entry cab special chassis modification) Bolangtao) 101m ladder model, low-entry cab greatly improves the ability to deal with emergencies.
The current new L-series models are used for firefighting services. Hong Kong, China has started to purchase the L-series urban waste collection models in 2018. The low-entry design also provides drivers with excellent safe driving vision. Z1z
Editor's postscript:
At present, domestic commercial vehicle companies have not launched such low-entry design models for the highly professional logistics and transportation industry. It seems to be an extended extension of traditional models. In fact, such models have indoor layout and The optimization of the layout of chassis components still requires the blessing of a certain mature manufacturing technology.
