30-Second Takeaway
TII SCHEUERLE has introduced new digital and safety features for its Self-Propelled Modular Transporters (SPMTs), strengthening monitoring capabilities and operational safety. New systems including COG Easy Mode load stability monitoring, tyre pressure monitoring and over-the-air software updates are integrated into the SCHEUERLE Connect platform, enabling operators to better manage complex heavy transport operations.
SCHEUERLE Expands Digital Capabilities for SPMT Transporters
Heavy transport equipment manufacturer TII SCHEUERLE has introduced a new range of digital monitoring and safety features for its Self-Propelled Modular Transporter (SPMT) systems.
The developments build on the company’s SCHEUERLE Connect telematics and fleet management platform, which provides operators with real-time data and monitoring capabilities during heavy transport operations.
According to the company, the new functions are designed to improve:
Operational efficiency
Load stability monitoring
Transport safety
Fleet management visibility
As the inventor and global market leader in SPMT technology, SCHEUERLE continues to develop digital tools aimed at supporting operators in complex transport environments.
COG Easy Mode Simplifies Load Stability Monitoring
One of the most significant new developments is the COG Easy Mode system, designed to make it easier for operators to monitor load stability and centre-of-gravity positioning.
The system visually displays tipping lines directly on the vehicle’s display screen, allowing operators to monitor the centre of gravity of the loaded SPMT in real time.
This visual interface enables operators to quickly identify any shift in load position during transport.
Key benefits of the system include:
Clear visual monitoring of load behaviour
Early detection of centre-of-gravity shifts
Reduced risk of load instability
Improved operational safety during heavy transport operations
When connected to SCHEUERLE Connect, the system can also record and analyse operational data. In certain configurations, it can even transmit the live display content remotely, allowing additional monitoring by project teams or fleet managers.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring Improves Operational Safety
TII SCHEUERLE has also introduced a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) for its SPMT modules.
The system continuously monitors tyre pressure across all transporter modules, providing
operators with real-time data directly on the vehicle’s display.
Any pressure deviations are immediately shown on both:
The SPMT module screen
The SCHEUERLE Connect digital platform
This monitoring system provides several operational advantages.
These include:
Reduced need for manual tyre inspections
Faster preparation before transport operations
Improved tyre lifespan
Increased safety during heavy load transport
Fleet managers and operators also gain greater visibility into overall tyre condition across their SPMT fleet.
Over-the-Air Software Updates Introduced
Another important development is the introduction of customer-performed over-the-air software updates.
With this new feature, operators can install software updates directly on their SPMT vehicles without requiring assistance from service technicians.
This approach allows companies to:
Implement new features more quickly
Update system software without interrupting operations
Ensure equipment remains up to date with the latest technology
The system allows operators to maintain optimal vehicle performance while reducing service downtime.
Integrated Digital Platform for Heavy Transport
All of the new features are fully integrated into the SCHEUERLE Connect digital platform, which serves as the central hub for fleet monitoring and data analysis.
Through this system, operators can access key information including:
Load stability data
Tyre pressure monitoring
Operational performance information
Vehicle diagnostics
The integrated platform allows fleet operators to centrally monitor SPMT operations, helping improve decision-making and transport safety during complex heavy haulage projects.
With these latest developments, TII SCHEUERLE continues to advance digital technologies within the heavy transport sector, focusing on practical tools that improve safety, efficiency and operational transparency.
