AUCOS COUP Automatic coupling system

AUCOS LOCK Automatic locking

AUTOMATIC FOLDING SUPPORT In conjunction with AUCOS Coup

The automatic folding support, developed by RMM Metternich Mechatronik GmbH, in conjunction with AUCOS COUP, enables safe and convenient coupling and uncoupling of trailers.

The automatic coupling system AUCOS COUP for truck to trailer was further developed with its proven components for a customer from Hamburg. The system is already being used successfully there, as well as in the USA and Canada. Installation is possible for 2" and 3.5" king pins.

Automatic hydro-pneumatic support winch. Seat post with hydropneumatic drive and automatic loading and unloading offset compensation. Currently still in further development RMM Metternich Mechatronik GmbH

Thank you for your interest. Our team is ready to answer your questions and provide you with detailed information.

This remote-controlled automatic locking system secures containers that have been set down in a matter of seconds. The previous laborious manual locking is no longer necessary and the driver can be sure that the container is firmly seated on the chassis.

As a fixed and lowerable lock! Self-Lock - Automatic container locking. Already approved for the terminal area. Currently still in further development RMM Metternich Mechatronik GmbH

To block the king pin in the event of unauthorized coupling. Locking and unlocking can be operated manually or mechanically. Currently still in further development RMM Metternich Mechatronik GmbH

Autonomous terminal tractors begin operational testing at EUROGATE Group Hamburg Following the successful pilot project in Wilhelmshaven, we have launched another pilot project for our Autonomous Tractor Solution (ATS) at the EUROGATE Marine Terminal in Hamburg. The focus: reliable performance in daily terminal operations. The system, which runs on an electric Terberg Special Vehicles tractor, handles container transport in mixed traffic and performs automated trailer coupling. February 17, 2026

The Terberg YT203EV electric terminal tractor, equipped with Embotech’s autonomous driving technology. As part of a pilot project, Eurogate will deploy an autonomous terminal tractor to transport containers between its seaport terminal and the EUROKOMBI rail hub in Hamburg. EUROGATE and Embotech have announced a second pilot project for autonomous terminal tractors (ATTs) at the EUROGATE seaport terminal in Hamburg. The six-month pilot project began in late January and builds on the successful technical feasibility pilot completed at EUROGATE Wilhelmshaven.
