-
Real-time monitoring for maximum transparencyTrailerConnect® enables live monitoring of trailer data such as position, temperature, tyre pressure, door status and EBS information. This data is provided centrally in the TrailerConnect® portal and via apps such as beUpToDate (for dispatchers) and beSmart (for drivers). This ensures full transparency and control over the entire fleet.Read more
-
Proactive maintenance and fault detectionThanks to 24/7 condition monitoring, the system detects potential problems early on, for example with refrigeration units or tyres. Customers receive automatic warnings and recommendations for action before a breakdown jeopardises the supply chain. This reduces unplanned downtime and increases operational reliability.Read more

Trustworthy, controlled and secure data exchangeThe TrailerConnect® Data Management Center is your point of contact for setting up and managing all incoming and outgoing data connections. This makes it easy to manage and monitor data connections in one central location. Importing data, e.g. from third-party telematics systems, and the secure and controlled exchange of data – e.g. to third-party systems such as Real Time Visibility Platforms (RTVP) – is now child's play.Read more
Selected highlights
Early warning – The TPMS monitors tyre pressure in real time and warns immediately if a tyre is underinflated. Early warnings via the TrailerConnect® portal, by email and SMS, and via the beSmart app can help prevent potential flat tyres and accidents. The autolocation function assigns each sensor to the correct tyre position. The Schmitz Cargobull sensor learns independently and collects data on tyre pressure and temperature.
With the TrailerConnect® Data Management Centre, Schmitz Cargobull offers a tool for simple and secure data integration on a single platform. Data can be imported into the TrailerConnect® portal and transferred to external platforms (e.g. transport management systems (TMS), fleet management systems (FMS)) easily, in a controlled manner and securely.
