GRUBER Logistics Engineering Services – Tailored solutions for safe heavy haulage
In the world of heavy haulage, every detail counts. With its in-house Engineering department, GRUBER Logistics offers a comprehensive service package supporting companies in the planning and execution of complex transports. The goal is to maximize safety, efficiency, and transparency – right from the start of the project. GRUBER Logistics tackles these challenges with its Engineering department, providing a complete range of services to assist companies in managing heavy transport. Here are the services offered by our team:
Route survey – Safety starts here
Surveying the route and the roads to be travelled is the first step in transport planning. It serves to identify a route suitable for the intended vehicle configuration, while evaluating traffic management measures and related costs.
Thanks to this preliminary analysis, the engineering team proves the suitability of the route and establishes a transparent cost basis. This enables transport duration to be estimated realistically and administrative requirements to be clearly defined, providing customers with planning certainty right from the start of their heavy transport.
Lashing Plan & customized solutions – Methodical cargo securing
The safety of the cargo, vehicle, environment, and people is at the core of the lashing plan. The GRUBER Logistics engineering team develops customized solutions for each customer, compliant with both legal regulations and the highest quality standards.
This plan reduces uncertainties during loading and serves as a practical guide for drivers and loading personnel.
Transport drawings – Visualization for greater clarity
The engineering team’s transport drawings visually represent the entire transport process and serve as a central point of reference for all parties involved.
They illustrate how loading and securing must take place while confirming axle load distribution, saving time in targeted equipment planning.
3D simulations – Complex transports made easy to understand
Thanks to 3D simulations, even the most complex transport concepts can be presented clearly and comprehensibly.
On the one hand, they provide all parties involved – such as the carrier itself, the permitting authorities, and customers – with a visual understanding of the transport process, ensuring clear communication.
On the other hand, the in-house generated 3D simulations are used to identify potential bottlenecks along the route at an early stage and develop proactive solutions.
TPP – Transport Process Planning as a comprehensive solution
Transport Process Planning (TPP) is the manual that gathers all relevant information. It encompasses all necessary organizational, technical, and legal measures.
In this way, the engineering team not only guarantees full transparency to its customers, but also increases efficiency in communications with authorities. All parties involved have access to the same information, ensuring the best possible coordination in terms of quality.
Do you need to carry out a standard heavy transport, or are you unsure whether your transport is feasible?
