At the 42nd Tokyo Motor Show (TMS), Mitsubishi Fuso Truck
and Bus Corporation (MFTBC) presented the most innovative fleet of vehicles it has ever displayed. The stand focussed on green technologies - especially hybrid systems, and included the world premiere of the new Fuso Canter Eco Hybrid.In line with the show’s theme, “Power to the Future,” MFTBC’s presentation underscored the importance of innovative technologies for safeguarding our social and economic future and promoting environmental protection all over the world. MFTBC showcased its pioneering activities in four vehicles.The new Fuso Canter Eco Hybrid
celebrated its world premiere at TMS. Although the vehicle is based on the model launched in 2006, its second generation has been completely revised. The new hybrid truck will initially be launched in Japan, where it will be introduced in spring 2012.The Fuso Canter E-Cell light-duty truck will be presented in Japan for the first time. This CO2-free test vehicle is part of Daimler Trucks’ “Shaping Future Transportation” initiative, which focuses on reducing pollutants, carbon dioxide, and fuel consumption through the utilization of clean, efficient drive systems and alternative fuels.The Fuso Super Great Eco Hybrid is the first long-distance haulage truck under development for
commercial sale by a Japanese manufacturer. This makes MFTBC one of the world’s first manufacturers to test a hybrid heavy-duty truck for highway use under real-life conditions. The Fuso Super Great HEV test truck allows Daimler Trucks to increase fuel efficiency when compared to conventional diesel-powered vehicles.Another vehicle presented at the TMS was the Aero Queen large travel coach featuring BlueTec technology. All of the models now boast improved fuel economy and already meet the fuel efficiency standard that will go into effect in Japan in 2015. The travel coach combines luxury, efficiency, safety, and functionality. ■

Sunday 20 November was World Day of Remembrance for Road
Traffic Victims. The day is held each year to remember the millions of people killed and seriously injured in road crashes around the world.The first National Day of Remembrance for Road Crash Victims was marked by British charity RoadPeace in 1993. In 2005, the United Nations agreed to mark the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims on the third Sunday in November.This day of remembrance is overseen by the World Health Organisation which acknowledges
that road safety is a significant public health issue.It is estimated that 1.3 million people are killed around the world every year in road crashes.The National Road Safety Council (NRSC) fully endorses the significance of this day and recognises the importance of actively promoting road safety. Deaths on Australian roads have dropped by 17 per cent in the past five years and the number of people aged between 17-25 years killed in road crashes has declined by 21 per cent over the same period. While these figures are
encouraging, road crashes are still killing approximately 1400 people each year and seriously injuring around 32,000. Chairman of the NRSC, Roger Cook, believes that we can still do more to reduce the number of deaths and injuries on our roads.“With more commitment to action, Australia can continue to drive down these figures.”Australia’s new ten-year National Road Safety Strategy commenced this year. The strategy sets targets for reducing the annual numbers of deaths and serious injuries on our roads by at least 30 per cent by 2020. ■

Philip Lovel AM, VTA CEO, and Paul Ryan, National
Industrial Advisor, Australian Road Transport Industrial Organisation (ARTIO), attended the TWU Safe Rates Summit in Canberra on 21 November 2011.The Summit was addressed by Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, the Hon. Anthony Albanese and Assistant Treasurer, the Hon. Bill Shorten.The Summit involved a combination of truck drivers, academics and industry representatives who gave their views on safe rates and industry safety.
The main outcome of the Summit was an announcement by Minister Albanese that legislation will be introduced into Federal Parliament on Wednesday 23 November 2011. The legislation will establish a new Road Safety Remuneration Tribunal.The Tribunal is expected to commence on 1 July 2012 and will include members from Fair Work Australia (FWA) along with independent work, health and safety experts.At the Summit, the VTA presented a comprehensive industry position outlining that Safe Rates is about more than just rates. It must be a
safe system, including customers, drivers, operators, roads, vehicles, payments and a system of compliance.Mr Lovel also highlighted the diverse range of industry sectors that need to be considered in any legislation. He said it was clear to the VTA that the Federal Government is taking action on what it considers to be a major community issue and that it will now be up to industry associations to interpret the legislation, work with the TWU and other parties (including Fair Work Australia) to ensure we improve road safety. ■
Winners of the inaugural 2011 Australian Road Safety
Awards, presented by Caltex, were announced on 23 November, during a National Final and Gala Dinner held in Sydney. At the awards, which are organised by the Fatality Free Friday Road Safety Foundation (FFFRSF), Gold Coast based company, VisionDrive, was named winner of the Innovation category.The company imports and sells in-car technology that teaches safe driving habits, including in-vehicle drive recorders which record video, audio and g-forces all referenced with GPS information (date/time/speed/location).Marketed as ‘your safe driving partner’, the VisionDrive auto blackbox can record and store past driving events in high quality
video. During reckless acceleration, braking and turning, VisionDrive will warn the driver in order to promote safer driving behaviour and prevent the chance of an accident.Chairman of Fatality Free Friday Road Safety Foundation, Russell White, said VisionDrive won the award because the technology is both user-friendly and delivers road safety messages directly to the driver. “VisionDrive was a very worthy winner of the Innovation category. The product takes road safety to the coalface, providing an ever-present reminder of the importance of safe driving,” said Mr White.“FFFRSF launched the Awards program to recognise outstanding achievement and innovation in the area of road safety in Australia.
“As well as formally recognising stakeholders’ commitment to improving road safety outcomes, we hope the Awards will encourage new standards of excellence in the road safety industry and in turn, will act as a catalyst to increase road safety activities across the nation.” In total, nine awards were presented on the night from a field of 35 finalists across ten categories. ■

In hot conditions, a fully functional air conditioner is essential to assist driver comfort and possibly help prevent early driver fatigue. Your vehicle’s air conditioning system should be checked or serviced regularly or as specified in your vehicle manufacturer’s hand book. It is recommended to run your air conditioner regularly as a light oil is present in the refrigerant to keep the compressor properly lubricated.
The air conditioner system and how its components workCompressor The power unit of the A/C system. It is powered by an engine drive belt. When the A/C system is switched on it pumps out refrigerant vapour under high pressure and high heat to the condenser. The compressor
also has an electrically operated clutch that turns the compressor on and off depending on your cool air requirements.
Condenser A device used to change the high-pressure refrigerant vapour into a liquid. It is mounted ahead of the engine’s radiator, and looks very similar to a radiator with its parallel tubing and cooling fins. As the vehicle moves, air flowing through the condenser removes heat from the refrigerant, changing it to a liquid state.
Receiver-dryer A storage tank for the liquid refrigerant. It removes moisture from the refrigerant as moisture in the system can freeze causing blockages.
Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TX valve) Controls the flow of high pressure liquid from the receiver-dryer to the evaporator. Basically the valve removes pressure from the liquid refrigerant so it can expand and become refrigerant vapour in the evaporator.
Evaporator Similarly to the condenser, it is usually mounted inside the passenger compartment. As cold low-pressure refrigerant is released into the evaporator, it vaporises and absorbs heat from the air in the passenger compartment. As the heat is absorbed, cool air will be available for occupants of the vehicle. A blower fan inside the vehicle helps distribute the cooler air.

feature Scania Euro 6
GoinG thenext stepSwedish truck manufacturer, Scania, has already made some euro 6 trucks available on the european market well ahead of its introduction in 2013. tim Giles speaks to the engineer responsible for the new models’ engine at the company’s HQ.
The series of exhaust emission regulation changes of the past 20 years have come thick and fast. the latest emission reduction
to affect europe will be introduced in 2013. euro 6 sees a reduction in nitrogen oxides allowed and a sizeable tightening on the amount of particulate matter in exhaust gases. Scania’s development team in Sodertalje, just outside Stockholm in Sweden, explained to Prime Mover
what has had to be done to the engine systems over the line to meet the latest regulations.euro 6 comes into effect as of 1 January 2013 for new models and extends to all truck models in europe on 1 January 2014. Scania has already released some of the new models onto the european truck market in anticipation of some
governments offering incentives to trucking operators who moved to the cleaner trucks earlier than they are mandated. Low emission incentives were effective in bringing forward the adoption of euro 5 technology in many countries in europe. however, no major european country has yet announced any measure, either reduced road tax or reduced road tolls.the european Union only recently finalised the euro 6 emission level figures first suggested in July 2009, giving truck manufacturers a tight deadline. Apart from the usual limits of allowable pollutants in exhaust gases, a new kind of limit was introduced. this restricts the number of individual particles permitted to be emitted. nitrogen oxides are reduced by 80% when compared to euro 5 levels, down to 0.4g per kilowatt hour. Particulate matter is halved to 0.01g per kilowatt
hour with carbon monoxide unchanged at 1.5 and hydrocarbons reduced by 75% to 0.13.“euro 6 has been, and is, a challenge to us,” says Bjorn Westman, Scania’s engineering Director, head of engine Development. “in practice, the mass limit for particulates has made the amount of particulate matter the engines can emit much smaller than the regulators imagined, i think. When we started looking at euro 6, particulate counting was not on the table. Different scenarios with nitrogen oxide levels and particulate matter mass were discussed along with their effects on fuel economy.“the politicians set the limits knowing it would drive a 2% fuel economy penalty when compared to continuing with euro 5. it was clear to us it would be possible to achieve half the particular mass emissions without
having to use diesel particulate filters (DPF). the authorities did not like that, they wanted to push diesel particulate filters on all diesel vehicles. So they added in the particulate number count. So the industry was forced to add particulate filters. DPF’s add maintenance costs, exhaust back pressures and a further loss in fuel efficiency.”the new european legislation also specified a new ‘World harmonised’ test cycle to be used when assessing trucks for the new regulations. the new test includes much more simulated city driving, and tests both cold and warm engines. this increases the level of difficulty for the truck manufacturers as DPFs have to work even harder in stop start operation. the new test cycle is the toughest of its kind in the world, surpassing the strict Japanese testing procedures. in the past
higher particulate matter levels were allowed in transient cycles with lower levels specified when the vehicle was stationary.the cleanliness of the new exhaust gas particulate filters can be demonstrated by the fact the paper filters are completely clean after 30 minutes operation when compared with the same filter from a euro 5 engine. Further proof of the much improved particulate matter output in the euro 6 engines is in the fact the new exhaust pipes are completely clean inside and over time will become rusty rather than dirty.“Politicians are not supposed to push technology but they have clearly done that in this case,” says Bjorn. “We now have to deal with a regulation which limits us to 800 billion particles per kilowatt hour. this is hard to count, and measurement technology has been
tough to develop to meet this new part of the rules.“however, we do believe that euro 6 is the last major step in the reduction of particulates in exhaust gases. We think the next step in exhaust emission regulation will concentrate on carbon dioxide. even without euro 6 we have seen a huge drop in the level of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter emitted by truck engines out on the roads.”So far, Scania has released two engines from its range as euro 6, the 440 and 480 hp 13 litre. the company says its new engines will achieve the same fuel economy possible with its euro 5 product. this has been achieved by changing the eGR settings in a way that increases nitrogen oxide emissions but also increases fuel economy, running more efficiently. the increased nitrogen oxides are cleaned up by

True to its word
As the son of highly regarded horse trainer
John Hawkes of Hawkes Racing, Wayne
Hawkes was surrounded by trucks from quite
a young age and is now a well-known horse
trainer himself.
“Since I was about 10 years of age, I travelled
around the country with Goldners Horse
Transport from Adelaide – and that’s how the
trucks started for me,” says Wayne. “I always
said I was going to own the biggest and best
float company around – but that went by the
wayside and I became a horse trainer instead,
before establishing Tailored Freight, so it all
just marries together really well.”
The opportunity to start Tailored Freight
arose when Wayne’s long time friend, Todd
Moraitis, was working for his uncle Nick at
the Melbourne fruit market. At the time
a new supermarket depot was being built
on the Albury and Wodonga border and
Todd’s uncle needed to have some freight
transported.
“Todd knew everything there is to know
about fruit and vegetables so that’s basically
how it started,” says Wayne, who began
Tailored Freight with Todd in mid 2006. “The
business almost started overnight.”
Tailored Freight began with four employees
and now employs 11. Based near the
Footscray market in Melbourne, Tailored
Freight began its life with two B-doubles,
towed by a second hand 2005 Mack Vision
prime mover and a brand new Freightliner
Argosy – both of which still have their place
in the fleet today.
Before long, the demand placed on the two
vehicles had increased and there was a need
to implement a third vehicle within the first
six months of the company’s operations. This
year another two vehicles were added to the

It is much easier for drivers to just push a button rather than have to hand wind landing legs. We split our B-double sets all the time so the Razor legs certainly do get a work out.
fleet, bringing the total number of prime movers to five
and the total number of trailers up to 11.
Tailored Freight now operates nine insulated tautliners
and two refrigerated pantech trailers which all operate
as B-doubles, servicing the Melbourne, Wodonga and
Shepparton districts as well as all the distribution centres
in between. Fruit and vegetable cartage accounts for
approximately 90 per cent of operations, while general
cartage takes up the remaining 10 per cent.
And while there has been several opportunities for
the company to travel interstate, Wayne says that
the company’s fleet is geared to service the needs of
Victoria. “We don’t want to be the biggest but we are
trying to be the best,” he says. “It is easy to get too big
and lose sight of the big picture. We are quite happy to
stay around this sort of number of trucks.”
Every trailer in the fleet has been manufactured by
Freighter, with all but one trailer purchased brand new.
The most recent trailer purchased is a second hand
Freighter trailer that has been completely refurbished.
All vehicles in the fleet operate seven days a week and
the business is open every day of the year except for
Christmas Day and Good Friday. “Horse training is no
different to the fruit and vegetable market, it also runs
seven days a week so the two work hand in hand,”
Wayne says.
