October 2024 RISE Update

RISE at the American Trucking Association’s Management Conference & Exhibition

Last month, the RISE Team attended the American Trucking Association’s Management Conference & Exhibition, where we demonstrated our Beltdraulic technology live on the show floor for the first time!

As they say, it takes a village to create a new technology, and the Team here has put their heart and souls into bringing this to life.

The event allowed us to connect with industry professionals and demonstrate the real-world impact of this innovation.

One of the most striking responses we received was from attendees trying to make sense of the technology’s quiet operation. Our unique design and the engineering behind Beltdraulic captured a lot of attention!

Even those outside our field couldn’t help but stop by, with one attendee saying, “... three separate people told me I had to stop by your booth because it was the best thing at the show.”  The reactions were a clear testament to Beltdraulic's impact.

LIVE Beltdraulic™ demo at Industrial Vehicle Technology (IVT) Expo in Chicago

We had the opportunity to attend the IVT Expo in Chicago, where we introduced our Beltdraulic technology live on the show floor. The event allowed us to connect with industry professionals and demonstrate the real-world impact of this innovation.

One of the most striking responses we received was from attendees trying to make sense of the technology’s quiet operation. As one visitor remarked, “I was trying to figure out how you made hydraulics so darn quiet, then realized it wasn't hydraulic!” The unique design and engineering behind Beltdraulic captured a lot of attention, with one person calling it a “mechanical engineering work of art.”

Even those outside our field couldn’t help but stop by, with one attendee saying, “This isn’t at all related to what I do, but three separate people told me I had to stop by your booth because it was the best thing at the show.”  

The reactions were a clear testament to the impact of Beltdraulic. Many asked, “How can I be a part of this?”—a reflection of the excitement surrounding this breakthrough. Beltdraulic is driving the industry forward, setting a new standard and leading the next wave of innovation with cutting-edge technology.

We’re looking forward to building on the momentum and continuing to push the boundaries of heavy-duty machinery. Stay connected with RISE as we continue to drive innovation forward and catch the next live demo.
