Hendrickson Truck Suspension Systems launched an online weight savings calculator, according to a company statement. The online tool utilizes calculations that estimate the effect that overall weight savings may have on payload increase and fuel efficiency improvement.
To calculate the potential value of weight savings, users can go the company’s Web site www.hendrickson-intl.com, click the “Load sample data” button and edit the sample values to more closely match their own fleet operating data, or they can directly enter their operating data into the available fields. The potential increased payload revenue and fuel savings per truck and per fleet are automatically calculated and displayed in the results boxes on the screen as the operating data is entered or modified.
