There is also a long-range intercom with a remote control gate opener operated from the office. The all-steel American-made HUG also has an automatic exit sensor that picks up vehicular movement, eliminating false openings. 8029 DEELLC’s HUG has been embraced by the construction, energy, mining and military sectors. The American-made HUG uses a 2.5cm (1") solid steel axle shaft on two 1,400kg (3,100lb) rated cast iron roller bearings and an ultra-heavy duty stainless actuator that has a 1,406kg (3,400lb) load capacity - all for a 2.7kg (6lb) arm.

    Peter Harrop, chairman of independent research and consultancy IDTechEx, considers arguments in favour of solar roads. Nowadays a major trend is the move to off-grid clean energy created by “energy harvesting” to produce electricity where it is needed. This is more controllable and increasingly at lower cost than grid power or diesel gensets, cleaner and often less subject to interruption. It is taking new forms as revealed in the IDTechEx Research report, “High Power Energy Harvesting 2016-2026”.
