Making of a Cab: Application & Environmental Considerations

“We try to make it easier for OEMs by bringing a lot of other operator cab ideas and experiences from different markets.”

The process of designing a new cab, or redesigning an existing cab for a piece of heavy machinery is a very complex process. From the very beginning, each decision is dictated by a series of requirements, including safety certifications and space constraints, and OEM desires, such as controls and special features. The best way to tackle this daunting process is by utilizing a partner with experience in every aspect of cab design. In this video series, we break down every step of the cab design process with different, specialized members of our talented engineering and sales team.

In a previous episode, one of our engineers took a closer look at how we fill out the base cab weldment with all of the foundational aspects that take a cab structure to a comfortable operator environment, including the HVAC system, insulation, windows, and doors. In this video, one of our account managers discusses application and environmental considerations that need to be addressed in cab design at every stage of the design process. He says one of the ways that GSGR is able to add value for both new cabs and cab updates, is that we have a wide range of experiences to draw on, and may be able to pull a perfect cab feature from a different industry, giving you a unique product for your end users.
