Patented technology for maximum safety and efficiency in road transport.

For OEM manufacturers
Wenova.eu – World’s First Autonomous Truck-Trailer Coupling
World Premiere: Autonomous Truck-Trailer Coupling
Wenova.eu has developed a patented innovation that radically improves road transport safety and efficiency. Our integrated module in the fifth wheel works together with the magnetic kingpin in the trailer to enable a fully autonomous coupling process, including:
- Real-time locking and angular rotation measurement
- Emergency locking in case of potential trailer detachment
- Full integration with the CAN-bus network of both truck and trailer

World First in Autonomous Truck–Trailer Coupling

The Intelligent Fifth Wheel®

Wenova.eu’s integrated module can make OEM fifth wheels intelligent for all transport companies. The real-time emergency locking operates autonomously, intervening automatically in unsafe situations — without driver input.

Patented technology delivering maximum safety, efficiency, and innovation in road transport.

For end-user manufacturers
Full control over the coupling
Our research spans from autonomous rotating mirrors on truck-trailer combinations in 2010 to the 2023 world premiere at TNO Helmond, where a trailer mover autonomously docked using our intelligent fifth wheel (see case study).
More for end-user manufacturers
For logistics providers
Safe coupling. Autonomous unloading.
The integrated module makes the fifth wheel intelligent, enhancing vehicle safety through autonomous coupling and maneuvering, real-time monitoring of the locked kingpin, and patented emergency locking. It also provides crucial data for professional dual-trailer operations and future autonomous driving.
More for transport
For R&D & developers
Reliable data. Complete control.
The integrated module provides essential parameters for autonomous truck-trailer driving and allows camera feeds and CAN-bus signals to be used for safe and efficient AI or vehicle system development. It ensures optimal visibility for drivers during complex maneuvers or reversing.
