TMC Exhibition Showcases Trucking Collaborations
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Maintenance Council’s annual conference gave manufacturers of a wide range of equipment and components for trucking to showcase the latest wares.
The meeting, held from March 6 to 9 at the Opryland Hotel, not only gave fleet maintenance managers the opportunity to discuss new maintenance techniques, it also provided a forum for the introduction of new products.
Among the announcements was a partnership between Mack Trucks and Eaton VORAD Technologies. The two companies are working together to develop a new cruise control system, which would complement a collision avoidance system by automatically slowing a truck that might be following another vehicle too closely.
