# THE SMART GENERATION IS HERE!

FAMILIAR ON THE OUTSIDE – BRAND NEW ON THE INSIDE.

## Coupling becoming digital

With digital technology, we have given the coupling brand new functionality. Plus, we have also made sure it can be upgraded with additional functions and integrated into the truck’s digital systems.

- #### JACKKNIFE WARNING
  
  Sensors detect if there is a risk of jackknifing and warn the driver before it is too late.
- #### COUPLING GUIDANCE
  
  The radar sensors detect the position of the drawbar and guide the operator for fast and safe coupling without having to leave the cab.

## THE SAME HIGH QUALITY – JUST NEW

![NEW TECHNOLOGY](https://info.vbg.eu/hubfs/Assets/vbg-herman/icons/icon-features-new-technology.svg)

#### NEW TECHNOLOGY

Digital technology makes coupling a part of the vehicle’s network.

![NEW FUNCTIONS](https://info.vbg.eu/hubfs/Assets/vbg-herman/icons/icon-features-new-functions.svg)

#### NEW FUNCTIONS

Sensor technology provides all-new functions for safety and convenience — and you can upgrade with additional functions in the future.

![LESS IS MORE](https://info.vbg.eu/hubfs/Assets/vbg-herman/icons/icon-features-smaller.svg)

#### LESS IS MORE

The smaller dimensions and lower weight simplify mounting and offer more room to manoeuvre.

  #### New power actuator (PA G2)
  
  The brand-new power actuator is based on patented VBG technology. It makes functionality more reliable and simplifies things for bodybuilders.
  
    - Significantly smaller dimensions provide more space for bodywork, e.g. during central assembly
    - Reduced risk of air leakage
    - Improved protection for auxiliary lock
- ![VBG-koppling-mindre-lattare](https://info.vbg.eu/hs-fs/hubfs/VBG-koppling-mindre-lattare.png?width=780&name=VBG-koppling-mindre-lattare.png)
  
  #### Smaller and lighter
  
  We have made the coupling both smaller and lighter. This gives bodybuilders more space and more room for drivers to manoeuvre. In addition, fuel consumption decreases and load capacity increases.

  #### New functions
  
    - Jackknife warning (optional extra)
    - Coupling guidance (optional extra)
- ![VBG 795V-3 PA L-L 09-311000\_P1](https://info.vbg.eu/hs-fs/hubfs/VBG%20795V-3%20PA%20L-L%2009-311000_P1.png?width=780&name=VBG%20795V-3%20PA%20L-L%2009-311000_P1.png)
  
  #### Improved mechanics
  
  We have made the coupling even more reliable, which extends service life, reduces the need for servicing and repair, and lowers the total cost of ownership.
  
    - New hard-wearing signal pin in steel
    - Improved auxiliary lock provides better functionality and saves space

  #### New valve box
  
  The newly designed valve box, with push-in nipples and reinforced hinges, can easily be mounted in different places. The weight has been halved and it has been given new knobs that make it easy to use – even while wearing gloves.
