Germany – At IAA Transportation 2022, held in Hanover between 20 and 25 September, ZF Friedrichshafen AG of Friedrichshafen, Baden-Württemberg showcased a range of new and upcoming products, including an electric drive system and technologies for connectivity and autonomous driving.
Taking centre stage was the ‘SCALAR EVO Touch’ tablet computer, allowing access to the ‘TX-Connect’ fleet management platform. The touchscreen computer connects ZF telematics with the vehicle’s CAN bus and tachograph, collecting data from truck safety systems, the power take-off and the trailer. Crucially, the EVO Touch will be compatible with ZF’s ‘SCALAR’ fleet orchestration platform, which the company presented at a pre-conference event earlier in September.
