Iveco natural gas vehicle equipment Allison transmission for optimal efficiency

Compressed natural gas (CNG) is increasingly used throughout the world in municipal services. As a solution that is both economical and environmentally friendly, it features low costs, low emissions, and the ability to reduce noise pollution by up to 30%. In the past three years, the city of Bolu in Turkey has been evaluating Iveco's Stralis CNG Garbage Truck equipped with Allison 3000 Series automatic transmissions. The evaluation results have recently been announced.

According to Bolu Mayor Alaaddin Yilmaz, the city of Bolu tends to use CNG vehicles because the former has a 90% cleaner burning rate compared to diesel vehicles, and it also saves fuel. "Our goal is to maintain our garbage fleet through environmentally friendly solutions such as CNG trucks. To ensure that we achieve the desired level of efficiency, we require that vehicles must be equipped with Allison transmissions."

"Allison automatic gearboxes support CNG engines and improve engine performance," said Imaz. "Allison transmissions multiply the torque of the CNG engine through its torque converter and easily transmit power to the wheels. As a result, the vehicle can quickly start even during frequent stop-start operations.

Yilmaz said that Bolu has become a model city for garbage trucks equipped with CNG. This kind of vehicle can save 60% to 70% of fuel compared with diesel-powered vehicles, and can save 40% to 50% of fuel compared with LNG vehicles. In addition, CNG garbage trucks can reduce CO2 emissions by 25% and operate without noise and noise, which benefits local residents.

According to Omer Faruk Erkoc, Logistics Director of Bolu City, each CNG garbage truck can collect about 19 tons of domestic garbage and travel about 90 kilometers (55 miles) per day. Rear-loaded trucks equipped with hydraulic compressors work 8 to 9 hours a day, run continuously for 6 days a week, and travel up to 30,000 kilometers (18,650 miles) a year, improving the efficiency of trash vehicles in the city.

"For us, one of the biggest advantages of Allison fully automatic transmissions is the ability to collect waste faster and more reliably," Erkoc said. "Thanks to Allison's fully automatic gearbox, the human error of the vehicle has been reduced, and maintenance and maintenance expenses have also been reduced correspondingly."

Erkoc stressed that drivers are also keen to drive these new trucks and are happy with the simple driving experience provided by Allison fully automatic transmissions. However, from the perspective of the mayor and the city, the most fundamental is the performance of the CNG engine with the Allison automatic gearbox.

"Allison torque converters provide excellent starting power by multiplying engine torque, and power is continuously transmitted to the wheels when the vehicle shifts." Erkoc said: "Because of Allison's uninterrupted power technology, the team's performance has improved. At the same time, planetary bevel gears in power transmission have reduced vehicle operating noise."
