CIMC Vehicles Shows Up at Feng Ji Wan Cai Express Logistics Equipment Expo in Hangzhou
On May 10, the 2017 Feng Ji Wan Cai Express Logistics Equipment and Supplies Sourcing Expo organized jointly by Hangzhou municipal government and Feng Wang Investment Co., Ltd. (Feng Wang) was opened in Hangzhou with the sole focus on express logistics equipment. CIMC Vehicles and its three core plants participated in this event with their featured models and the PSI automatic tire inflation system respectively.
The introduction of the new GB1589 standard is exerting an increasing effect on the road transport industry. The strong sales in the 4th quarter of last year have evolved into the “upgrade” of the entire industry. The special vehicles presented at this event clearly have extended dimensions that are much more standardized. The ultra-wide and oversize vehicles traditionally being used by domestic logistics and transport companies are nowhere to be found. As a leader in the special vehicle sector, CIMC Vehicles has always been promoting normalized, standardized, and light-weight products and is dedicated to developing eco-friendly and healthy logistics operations. The three models it presented at this event best reflected this concept.
The PSI automatic tire inflation system, as a part of the smart trailer, was presented visibly on the exhibiting ground. This system is capable of reducing abnormal wear and loss of tires and the fuel. When flat tires occur, the system is capable of ensuring normal operation of the vehicle within 500km. Data on actual use by large fleets both at home and abroad shows that the system can reduce fuel consumption by 2% and the wear of tires by 10% to 30% for every 100 kilometres. 70% of the fleets ranked among the top 200 in the US such as the large fleet of FEDEX have PSI as the standard equipment. The improvement of the automatic tire inflation system and the replacement of the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) by it are the inevitable trends in the future and it will be the standard equipment of the future smart logistics.
On the opening day of the Expo, a large number of customers and audience stopped at the stand of CIMC Vehicles. Product engineers of the three core plants provided the latest information on the exhibits and explained their advantage in terms of the design as the interpreters.
To improve the experience of VIP customers at the Expo, CIMC Vehicles hosted the CIMC Vehicles Panel for VIP Customers with representatives from the three plants, the sales system, the suppliers, the dealers, and key clients of the company in the logistics industry from eastern, southern, and northwestern China gathering together to talk about the future. He Xiansong from the manufacturing and technology management division of CIMC Vehicles, Zhu Zheng from the technical center of CIMC Tonghua plant, Yu Shilin from the parts and services division of the center store in southern China, Lin Wanqian from the steel and plastic plates plant, and Chu Dan from SF-Trailernet Technology shared and talked with the clients about topics such as the Technical Trend of Cargo Vehicles with Curbing of Overloading, New Product- Highlights of the 45-feet Products Made of Steel and Aluminum, The Tire Leasing Business, New Product- Van Semi-Trailers, and CIMC Smart Trailer System. Through their presentation, the clients achieved a more intuitive and clearer understanding of the technologies, products and future planning of CIMC Vehicles. During the Expo, CIMC Vehicles not only talked with companies in express delivery, logistics, and e-commerce sectors about their purchasing plans but also signed orders for several hundreds of vehicles with multiple clients.
