TriMark e-ASK

You probably wouldn't buy a new car without remote power locking and the same will apply soon to the off-highway industry. Increasingly, these vehicles are becoming as sophisticated as automobiles with OEM's incorporating many automotive-like aspects. TriMark's latest access systems provide for these added functionalities by incorporating electronics to promote safety, security and productivity.

TriMark is introducing its successful e-ASK (electronic Access and Security Keyless-entry) products to the agriculture and construction market and is showing an advanced concept cab at the ConExpo show in Las Vegas this March. This e-CAB demonstrates the application of TriMark's popular mechanical and electronic products and includes keyless entry, power latch release, keyless ignition/start and control of lighting, horns, sirens, sensors, motorized actuators and solenoids. Furthermore, TriMark systems are now able to communicate with common multiplexing protocols of off-road vehicles as well as provide integration with vehicle security systems. This further promotes OEM systems integration and ultimately promotes increased productivity and an enhanced end-user experience.
Our ambition is to make access and use of the vehicle easier and safer thanks to our products. Considering the needs of both the OEM's and the end users, TriMark develops mechanical and electrical system

solutions that are useful, beneficial and add value to the market.

One of TriMark's strategic strengths is the ability to provide complete door systems; our keyless access control systems pave the way for how innovative technologies can make off-road vehicles more comfortable and secure. Our product platforms range from latches, handles and linkages for mechanical products and RF transmitter FOBs, keypads, I/O modules, power lock actuators and a wide variety of accessories for electronic products.

For more information go to www.trimarkcorp.com, or visit our booth at # H-29017, March 11-15, 2008 at the ConExpo/Con/Agg show in Las Vegas, Nevada, to see the e-CAB demo in-person.


Heavy Duty Latches for Armored Vehicles





Offering security, reliability and modularity, the "TriGuard" line of TriMark's heavy duty latches, linkages, handles and door modules are specifically developed for heavy duty armored vehicle applications. These robust door product/systems simplify vehicle and field attachment with reduced attachment points and door assembly. Already proven in several blast tests the 050-0850 heavy duty latch/striker survives in punishing environments and provides rotor/cam assist to heavy doors/armor and hinges helping to compensate for door sag. These products can be used on retrofit, up-armor applications or new surface mount vehicle construction and can be purchased as separate products or complete one-piece modules ready for installation. In addition, the "TriGuard" line of products is fully compatible and offers flexibility and adaptability to suit your specific application needs.

TriMark has a dedicated team of engineers capable of rapidly responding to your needs with hardware knowledge and expertise ultimately providing "turn- key" solutions. Our capabilities include engineering services utilizing 3D CAD, rapid production laser and form cells, CNC lathe/machining centers, high volume stamping/metal forming presses, automated RoHS plating line and in-house quality and inspection services. TriMark offers the right combination of products and services providing maximum flexibility to meet your tight lead times for prototypes and production orders without expensive tooling and long lead times.

More information on the TriMark "TriGuard" line of products will soon be available on the TriMark website. Please inquire at 641-394-1071 or email kevin.roths@trimarkcorp.com for specific details.
