Leading Garbage Truck Manufacturer Selects Eaton Technology to Improve Equipment Productivity
Eaton recently announced that Wayne Engineering, a leading garbage truck manufacturer in West Davos, Iowa, has listed Eaton’s Power-On- DemandTM advanced technology as a designated technology for the new generation of garbage trucks, TitanEcoForceFrontLoader and CurbertenderG4AutomatedSideLoader. Thanks to Eaton’s advanced technology, these two trucks can increase productivity and reduce fuel consumption.
The Eaton team proposed an overall system solution with advanced technology, including the Eaton Power-On-Demand load sensing hydraulic system. The system uses variable displacement piston pumps and smart electro-hydraulic load sensing technology to provide the required flow and pressure for a specific working circuit. Fuel consumption can be reduced by 10%, and annual CO2 emissions can be reduced by more than 20,000 pounds.
The Power-On-Demand system used in garbage trucks not only improves fuel economy, but also significantly reduces cycle times, leading to higher productivity. The system is equipped with two 80cc Eaton® 420 series pumps working in tandem to coordinate the dumping and loading functions, saving up to 20% of the time. Hose routing and installation are optimized with Eaton Aeroquip® Triple Crown AdvantageTM hoses and O-ring face seal fittings to reduce or eliminate the common leakage problems of conventional hoses and SAE 37° flare fittings.
Scott Kanne, Wayne Engineering’s vice president of sales and marketing, said: “For years, fleet managers have been failing to pay enough attention to fuel efficiency. But with rising diesel prices, operating costs and capital expenditures have become equally important.â€
The Eaton Power-On-Demand system is maintenance-free and incorporates durable components such as the Eaton 420 Series Piston Pumps, Vickers CMX Electro-hydraulic Load Sensing Valves, Vickers MCD manifolds, and Aeroquip GH493 And GH781 hose fittings.
Kanne said: “Manufacture of truck bodywork is commonplace, and Eaton has helped us build smarter trucks with better circulatory systems. Today our trucks are the smartest products on the market.
