TPI Announces Lightweight Truck
Program
TPI Composites, Inc. (TPI), a leading manufacturer of large-scale
composite structures, joined Congressman Patrick Kennedy of Rhode Island
and representatives from Volvo Trucks North America to unveil its new
program that will create advanced composite cabs using Volvo's
industry-leading cab and sleeper design. The dual-use cab-sleeper will
initially be designed for the U.S. Army's large, logistical wheeled
vehicle fleet and then transitioned into commercial sleeper cabs used
for interstate trucking applications. The Army's program will address
serious military vehicle issues by being lighter in weight, highly
durable, and strong enough to carry the heaviest of armor. For
commercial trucking, the program's goals include significant weight
reduction that will increase fuel efficiency in trucks.
