Motormax, a specialist in fleet safety electronics, will be at next week’s CV Show to officially launch its latest new solutions.
The company uses innovative technology to improve the safety of the UK’s largest fleets, the welfare of drivers and the surrounding public.
At the CV Show, running from 24 to 26 May at the NEC in Birmingham, Motormax will reveal its new Safetymax and Rapid Fit products, alongside its brand-new Powermax power distribution unit. Attendees will also be able to experience its Live Platform / DVR.
The Safetymax solution comprises an exclusive range of audible and visual warning safety systems, designed and manufactured by Motormax to ensure critical and potentially life-saving alerts are communicated clearly to drivers with timely warnings. Up to nine tailored alert images and voice prompts can be programmed to be displayed on screen. The solution can combine camera viewing with parking sensor technology to give drivers enhanced visibility whilst manoeuvring a vehicle. It’s also designed to have the appearance of a factory-fitted option.
Motormax also offers the Safetymax 360 Detection System, which uses anywhere from four to 16 ultrasonic sensors to provide drivers with a clear indication of obstacles around the vehicle below a predefined vehicle speed. A traffic light system at fixed points around the vehicle is displayed on screen, allowing drivers to understand the display, remaining at a safe distance whilst manoeuvring.
The line-up also includes the Rapid Fit plug and play service, providing a professional and consistent installation process for alarm and lighting solutions, parking sensors, reverse cameras and sensor step extensions. It’s designed to significantly reduce in-life visits to vehicles, improving the efficiency of fleets, while the installation method is also non-destructive so will not void the manufacturer warranty. All Rapid Fit wiring looms are manufactured in the UK, enabling prompt designs to specific fleet requirements.
At the CV Show, Motormax will also reveal its Powermax exclusive range of power distribution solutions. The Power Distribution Unit connects to the manufacturer’s approved pick-up points, distributing a protected supply of power throughout the vehicle. It’s also a plug and play solution so when used in conjunction with Rapid Fit, the installation method is non-destructive and therefore will not void the manufacturer warranty. It’s compatible with Rapid Fit and Safetymax, and designed to protect fuse circuits and features a voltage control and timer.
The Power Distribution Unit also offers an optional Battery Guard, popular for EVs. This solid-state battery device will monitor source voltage, disconnecting aftermarket equipment from the battery if the voltage falls below a predetermined level. This ensures that there is always sufficient voltage remaining in the battery to start a vehicle and/or to ensure power is available for other critical applications.
Finally, Motormax will also showcase its Live Platform / DVR at the CV Show, which brings everything from on-demand vehicle footage and live vehicle GPS, to personalised notifications and reporting; it’s already been used to help hundreds of businesses improve safety, enhance the productivity and efficiency of their fleet.
As a “connected” vehicle via the live view DVR, Motormax can integrate any of the Safetymax triggers through to the report suite on the live software. This enables the operator to view events and footage from the warning system in real-time and view and export historical events.
Alongside its product showcase, Motormax will also have a seminar programme running throughout each day, which will include input from the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) and Construction Logistics and Community Safety (CLOCS).
The Motormax stand and seminar area is at stand 5F60
