This is ETTdemo

 Research project with Skogforsk as project owner.  By increasing the load of each truck, the same amount

  • f timber can be transported using less number of

trucks.

– ETT vehicle (90 tonnes) – ST vehicle (74 tonnes)

 The aim of the project is to change the current legislation regarding maximum weight of trucks in Sweden, making it possible to use this truck without special permits.

Additional research areas

 How will the road safety be affected?  How will the forest roads be affected by the heavier loads?  Development of an interface for maps in truck computer.

What will happen next?

 Two applications, one for the ETT vehicle, and one for the ST vehicle has been sent to the Swedish authorities.  These applications need to be approved for the vehicles to start transporting timber.  Without the approvment it’s not possible to continue with the project.
