Labrie Equipment Ltd. has been awarded a US patent for its automated bi-compartment truck. This unit is equipped with a chute system allowing the collection of two different materials at the same time.
The patent was awarded for a system of mobile deflecting plates that allow the operator to unload two kinds of waste material into two separated compartments. The automated bi-compartment truck equipped with the new system needs only one stop to collect two materials from either two different roll-carts or one bi-compartment roll-cart.
