One of the biggest challenges that heavy vehicle drivers face is the rapidly changing speed zones that exist in urban and regional areas. For example, within a few short kilometres, freight drivers can move from a 40km zone to a 50km zone, then to 60km, to 80km, to 90km, and then to 100 and 110km zones.
Australian research has found that vehicle design improvements have reduced vibrations in truck cabins and masked engine and external noise, and, because of this, drivers have become insulated, affecting their perception of speeding. This has led to some drivers reporting they were unaware that they were speeding.
SGESCO-MAX offers adaptable speed control through eight pre-set options. Its versatility extends to diverse work environments, allowing for the enforcement of specific speed limits in locations such as mines and industrial sites.
This customisation ensures optimal safety and operational efficiency for a broad range of heavy vehicles and machinery.

Highly flexible — 8 programmable speed settings.
Tailorable to specific applications.
Maximum Speed Limit can be locked and not overridden.
Security for Drivers and Safety Managers.
One familiar speed management system for all fleet vehicles.
Automatic and manual options available.
Commercial-grade solution.
Designed and manufactured in Australia using OE grade components.
The solution allows for up to 8 speed settings to be pre-programmed, making the technology incredibly flexible; accommodating various terrains, tasks, and vehicles, such as prime-movers, trucks, buses, 4x4s, and heavy machinery.

The MAX-SAFE Speed Limiting™ solution can also be tailored to unique applications, such as a simple rotary switch to select the relevant pre-set speed limit, or a lockable key switch to set a maximum allowed speed.
This is a perfect solution for mine sites, allowing a supervisor to remove the key once the maximum speed is set – meaning that the vehicle cannot go over the speed limit from that point on.

Another innovative application of the MAX-SAFE Speed Limiting™ solution is in tipper trucks, allowing a maximum speed to be set for when the tipper is not in the locked position, restricting the speed to 8km/h.
It locks in a low maximum speed limit as required for safety compliance on various worksites, such as mine sites, industrial work sites, and warehouses.

"When you see the kits, the installation and how it works in action, no driver intervention, nothing for the driver to remember, safety of the vehicle and safety of the people, it’s well worth it."

"Less than 45 minutes into day one of the trial, the system prevented what could have been a potential accident with an adult. It highlighted how close a near miss it was and how vital this type of solution was."

"MAX-SAFE Side View Solution provided superior VRU detection to standard side mirrors and cameras and was most beneficial to the drivers involved in the trial."

"We have used SGESCO-MAX products for over three years and have found them to be an innovative safety solution for our fleet vehicles and effective in achieving zero incidents in trucks reversing or accidentally rolling away."
Tony Rawson
National Fleet Category Manager, Suez Recycling & Recovery, ANZ
"There is a big need for MAX-SAFE products in New Zealand. You only hear about a roll away when there is a crash, but the number is far greater than what is reported. Recently, there was a tour bus in Auckland that rolled away and ran over a Mum and a baby. Both survived luckily, but if the bus had the MAX-SAFE device fitted this accident never would have occurred."
Gary Puklowski
Managing Director, Autokraft Electrical & Diesel Ltd
"When you go to a fire, and your adrenaline is rushing, you need to focus on the fire and what you need to do. Worrying about whether you’ve left the handbrake on or not, is the last thing on your mind."
