In November 2023, Hubei Shengda Automobile entered into a cooperation with a logistics company specializing in dangerous goods transportation in Hubei. The logistics company mainly transports flammable, explosive, and corrosive dangerous goods, with business covering more than 30 provinces and cities across the country. Due to the particularity of dangerous goods transportation, the requirements for vehicle safety, reliability, and compliance are extremely high.
Before cooperating with Hubei Shengda Automobile, the logistics company had been troubled by vehicle safety issues. In 2022, a dangerous goods transportation vehicle had a brake failure during transportation, resulting in a traffic accident, which caused damage to the goods and endangered public safety. This incident made the company realize the importance of choosing high-quality transportation vehicles. After extensive market research and comparison, they finally chose to cooperate with Hubei Shengda Automobile.
Hubei Shengda Automobile customized a series of dangerous goods transportation vehicles for the logistics company according to the characteristics of dangerous goods transportation. These vehicles are equipped with multiple safety devices, such as anti-lock braking systems (ABS), electronic stability programs (ESP), and emergency shutdown systems. The ABS can prevent the wheels from locking during braking, ensuring the vehicle's steering ability. The ESP can monitor the vehicle's driving state in real-time and take corrective measures when the vehicle is in danger of skidding or rolling over. The emergency shutdown system can cut off the power supply and fuel supply of the vehicle in an emergency, stopping the vehicle quickly.
In addition, the vehicles are made of high-strength materials to ensure their resistance to impact and corrosion. The tank body of the vehicles used to transport corrosive dangerous goods is made of stainless steel with a thickness of 10mm, which has excellent corrosion resistance. It has passed the pressure test of 0.6MPa, ensuring no leakage during transportation. The vehicle frame is made of high-strength alloy steel, which has a tensile strength of more than 800MPa, effectively improving the vehicle's load-bearing capacity and impact resistance.
The logistics company's manager, Mr. Wang, said: "The dangerous goods transportation vehicles provided by Hubei Shengda Automobile have given us a great sense of security. Their multiple safety devices and high-quality materials ensure the safety of our transportation work. In the past three months of operation, there have been no safety accidents, and the vehicle failure rate is almost zero. This has not only ensured the safety of the goods and the public but also improved our company's reputation in the industry. We will continue to increase our cooperation with Hubei Shengda Automobile and plan to purchase 20 more dangerous goods transportation vehicles next year."
Hubei Shengda Automobile also provides the logistics company with a full range of technical support and after-sales service. The company's technical team regularly communicates with the logistics company to understand the use of the vehicles and provide technical guidance. The after-sales service team is on call 24 hours a day to solve any problems encountered by the logistics company in a timely manner. In addition, Hubei Shengda Automobile has established a file for each vehicle, recording the vehicle's maintenance history and use status, which is convenient for tracking and managing the vehicles.
This cooperation between Hubei Shengda Automobile and the logistics company specializing in dangerous goods transportation not only meets the special needs of the logistics company but also sets a good example for the safety management of dangerous goods transportation in the industry. It shows that with advanced technology and strict quality control, special vehicles can provide reliable guarantees for the transportation of dangerous goods, promoting the healthy and orderly development of the dangerous goods transportation industry.
