Low risk , high reward
Cab ’ s Industries has built a strong reputation as a leading outfitter of transport trucks by relying on Mouvex compressors and pumps
quick glance at the curriculum vitae of Philippe Cabrillon
A shows a compilation of life experiences and interests that would appear to make him a candidate to play the lead role in Dos Equis ’ iconic ‘ Most Interesting Man In The World ’ ad campaign : the humanities , stars , jazz , photography , quantum mechanics , cars and motorcycles . But that ’ s not all . Since 1986 , Cabrillon has been the CEO of Cab ’ s Industries . Based in Brie-Comte-Robert , France , about 40 km ( 25 miles ) southeast of Paris , Cab ’ s Industries is an OEM for transport trucks that are used in the delivery of liquid and dry-bulk raw materials and finished food , chemical and petroleum products across the country . Cab ’ s Industries has built its reputation as the No . 1 OEM for transport trucks in France by making a committed investment in the success of its clients , which include many of the most well-known truck manufacturers on the continent . With that in mind , Cab ’ s Industries stocks all of its 12 facilities in France with equipment that has been designed to ensure safe , reliable and efficient product transfer , whether the vehicle has been on the road for a decade , or is fresh off the assembly line . Cab ’ s Industries also employs personnel that have been specially trained by the equipment manufacturers . Fully equipped test benches are deployed for the process of inspecting new or repaired equipment . “ We know the market because we are in front of our customers ,” explained Philippe Maisonneuve , Cab ’ s general manager and sales manager . “ We hear what they tell us and work hard to meet their needs .”
Make mine Mouvex
Two of the more crucial pieces of equipment that are found on transport trucks are the pumps and compressors that are used to facilitate the critically important tasks of loading and unloading the vehicles . In this instance , Cabrillon – who is an unabashed admirer of the go-where-the-mood-takes-you stylings of freeform jazz – takes the opposite tack . In fact , he is quite rigid in his thinking : Cab ’ s Industries recommends , first and foremost , Mouvex pumps and compressors to its customers . Founded in 1906 , Mouvex is headquartered in Auxerre , France , and is a product brand of PSG , based in Oakbrook Terrace , IL , USA . Importantly , Mouvex is a highly regarded manufacturer of positive displacement pumps , screw compressors , hydraulic coolers and vane compressors for use in the refined-fuels , oilfield , energy , food / sanitary , military , transport and chemical-process industries . “ Mouvex is our partner , and an internationally recognised company known for the quality of its equipment for more than 100 years ,” said Maisonneuve . “ Mouvex is a pump and compressor expert , and Cab ’ s is a transport expert , so that ’ s the reason why we are very complementary with each other . “ We know Mouvex ’ s product range – and it ’ s a nice range ,”
Philippe Maisonneuve , general manager and sales manager for Cab ’ s Industries . “ We use Mouvex because we know we will have no risk to our reputation by ”
Maisonneuve continued . “ Mouvex has nearly all of the products we need , while some of their competitors have only bulk products , or some have only liquid pumps . Mouvex has all of the products – bulk compressors , pumps for hydrocarbons , pumps for chemicals , compressors for chemicals , hydraulic coolers . It ’ s a nice range with very good products . They are also compact in design and lightweight , which helps us comply with strict Euro6 regulations regarding transport size and weight .”
Full range
The Mouvex compressor model that Cab ’ s Industries puts on most trucks is the B200 Flow Control Series Screw Compressor . The B200 is able to meet customer demands because it is compatible with all truck models and configurations , and can be mounted to the vehicle through the power takeoff ( PTO ) with no prop or drive shaft required . The compressor is lightweight , easy to maintain and has an optimized flow path that lowers unloading times , with the availability of a flow-control check-and-relief valve ( CRV ) that helps to produce more consistent flow rates . All of the B200 ’ s exterior components , including flanges and relief valve , are stainless steel for added protection against corrosion . If needed , the B200 can be fitted with a silencer if noise is an issue for the driver or his customers . These features , along with its oil-free operation , make the B200 ideal for the transfer of a wide range of liquid products . The stainless-steel design also makes the B200 a viable option for the transfer of corrosive liquid chemicals and solvents . The B200 can reach a wide range of flow rates up to 180 cbm / h ( 793 gpm ) at discharge pressures up to 2.5 bar ( 36 psig ). “ We are selling more and more B200s because customers know the benefits that come with buying this unit ,” said Maisonneuve . “ They save time because unloading is quicker , with low or zero maintenance and no spare parts to stock . That ’ s the reason we are selling more and more of them .” transport logistic China May 16 - 18 , 2018
