Allison automatic garbage trucks become benchmarks in Brazil

A few years ago, Allison Transmission and MAN South America had cooperated to develop vehicles for the Brazilian garbage collection market. R&D results show that efficient vehicles not only increase operating efficiency, but also reduce maintenance costs. Scania and Mercedes-Benz were conquered by their excellent performance and good market response, and they also started to use the Allison automatic transmission as their vehicle.

At present, more than 1,200 garbage trucks equipped with Allison transmissions are operating in Brazil, and the teams benefit from the excellent productivity and low maintenance costs of the vehicles. For this reason, many Brazilian residential garbage trucks are installing Allison automatic transmissions for their trucks. Allison's new FuelSenseTM fuel-saving technology strategy helps reduce fuel consumption while increasing productivity, which has made assembly automatic transmissions a trend in Brazil.

Luis Fernando Brandi Lopes, the equipment and maintenance manager of Vega, a Solví Group company, agrees with this trend. He believes that the use of fully automatic garbage trucks will only continue to grow in the recycling industry. Vega's internal test results show that with garbage trucks using Allison 3000 series transmissions, the team’s productivity is increased by 15% to 20% compared to other manual models. Even taking into account factors such as traffic conditions, terrain and waste collection capacity, MAN garbage trucks equipped with Allison automatic transmissions operate more efficiently, reducing overtime costs.

“Solví Group currently owns or leases about 600 garbage compression vehicles, of which 50% are equipped with Allison automatic transmissions.” Lopes said, “I recommend using Allison automatic transmissions. In fact, for the garbage collection industry I am quite surprised that there is no wider use of highly efficient automatic transmissions."

Frequent start and stop conditions cause severe wear on the powertrain of these vehicles, especially clutch assemblies. For this reason, some giant Brazilian sanitation services companies advocate the use of Allison automatic transmissions. The Marquise Group is one of them. According to the group's director, Hugo Nery, all three-axle trucks are equipped with Allison automatic transmissions, and the group plans to gradually replace the remaining manual transmissions with fully automatic transmissions.

“We have observed and evaluated the performance of automatic transmissions for two years and concluded that the purchase of Allison fully automated transmissions is a worthwhile investment. Vehicle availability is of paramount importance in our business. The gearbox can no longer be abused and damaged, and there is no need to replace worn clutches etc. This greatly reduces vehicle downtime,” Nery said.

COMLURB, a waste collection management company in Rio de Janeiro, also uses fully automatic transmission technology. In fact, the company's bid requirements specify that new garbage collection vehicles must be equipped with automatic gearboxes to meet a range of requirements including vehicles that reduce operating noise, improve durability, reduce maintenance costs, and increase vehicle availability.

In addition to these considerations, vehicles equipped with Allison transmissions can help the driver fully focus on the safe operation of the vehicle. Because in addition to pedestrians who need to pay attention to traffic conditions and shuttles, drivers often work alongside other moving vehicles. Safety issues are a top priority in the garbage collection industry. Now that the automatic garbage truck is running, the driver is no longer interrupted by manual shifts that have been operated more than a thousand times a day. This reduces labor intensity and pressure, reduces fatigue, and allows the steering wheel to be steered with both hands for safer operation.
