Velociti Deployes EpicVue and FlowBelow Systems for Hirschbach Motor Lines

Velociti Inc., a provider of technology deployment services, has announced the completion of a technology rollout for Hirschbach Motor Lines consisting of installing EpicVue, providers of a premium in-cab satellite TV package for the trucking industry, and the FlowBelow Tractor Aero Kit, which consists of aerodynamic wheel covers and tractor tandem fairings that deliver aerodynamic advantages by reduce drag and save fuel on the tractor.

The installations were part of a two prong initiative by Hirschbach Motor Lines to advance its Green Fleet Strategy and expand it’s fleet through driver retention and increased fuel efficiency and savings.

“Retaining experienced drivers and attracting new, qualified drivers, is extremely important for maintaining the high quality of service Hirschbach strives to provide its customers,” said Brian Weiss, Director of Driver Services. “Our drivers spend most of their time out on the road or at truck stops and rest areas during required downtime. Our hope is to improve the quality of that time by providing them with the EpicVue in-cab satellite TV system.”

Also, as a continuation of its Green Fleet Strategy, Hirschbach decided to have the FlowBelow Tractor Aero Kit installed.

FlowBelow notes that its system will reduce fuel consumption over 2% at highway speeds. Hirschbach has already seen a difference in reduced driver turnover as well as an increased interest from new drivers.
