Solution to taming Nordic winter roads in Sweden
As the summer sun begins to wane and next winter season approaches, Aebi Schmidt Sweden geared up his demo machines with a beautiful beast of a winter road maintenance truck – right in time for the Elmia Lastbil, a truck fair gathering the entire industry in the spirit of heavy vehicles. The basis for this RMT-solution is the powerhouse Volvo FH 64, a truck model known for its power, durability, and its reliability in harsh Nordic winter conditions – equipped with Arctics advanced snow and ice removal solutions.
Tackle the toughest winter conditions with Arctic technology
The severe and unpredictable weather of the Nordic regions demands solutions not only to be robust but also adaptable. Arctic’s plows and scrapers are crafted to ensure durability, reliability, and to meet the challenges posed by heavy snowfall, icy conditions, and sub-zero temperatures.
The Arctic hydraulic system serves as the heart of the Road Maintenance Truck, providing the power and precision needed to operate the advanced plows and scrapers efficiently, even in deep sub-zero conditions. Coupled with the Arctic Controller, which acts as the brain of the system, this combination ensures optimal performance and responsiveness. The Arctic Controller allows for seamless adjustments and real-time monitoring, giving operators complete control over the equipment.

Taking the lead in the snow removing process is Arctic’s HPD snow plow for heavy-duty performance, made of lightweight and durable polyethylene and an ultra-strong steel framing. Its powerful blade and special 75° attack angle cuts through deep snow without destroying road markings or hitting obstacles on the road surface. With a up to 3,4 meter clearing with at 42° swiveling angle and a second T2 cutting edge for slush clearing, this plow is an essential asset for the primary snow removal operations.

Giving the truck some wings with the very special single body side plow, the Arctic SHJ for trucks. With its “aggressive” attack angle the side plow cuts ice and snow easily from the road surface. Made from ultra-strong steel the Arctic SHJ copes with severest conditions. The rounded shape of the wing, together with the polyurethane visor, ensures that the snow flies effectively from the plow and provides a high snow ejection property. The Arctic SHJ is the only side plow in the world with plowing speed up to 90 km/h – so in a way, this wing allows you almost to fly through snow and ice clearing.

To round it out, the road maintenance truck is equipped with the Artic AMS scraper. The adjustable working width, attack and inclination angles makes the scraper effective on any road and in any conditions, ensuring cleared and safe roads after passing through. Even after its winter mission, the AMS scraper can be used for gravel and forest road maintenance.
