Chassis

Driving safety, damping force, fuel consumption

Pneumatic and hydraulic valves are used at important points on the chassis and ensure smooth processes. This is why the integration of mechatronic systems such as air suspension, controlled damping, roll stabilization and other active chassis systems is becoming increasingly important in development.

Components Air suspension and damping systems, level control and fully active chassis

Hydraulic trolleys

Roll stabilization: In sharp bends, the centrifugal force pushes the vehicle towards the outside of the bend, impairing ride comfort and safety. An important component for reducing the tendency to roll is the stabilizer bar. Our control valves control the pressure generated by the pump and thus ensure that the rolling motion when cornering is minimized or completely compensated.

Active suspension and damping systems: Suspension, vibration damping and level control from a single source: with active suspension and damping systems on board, the skidding, rolling and pitching of the vehicle is almost completely eliminated.

Electrohydraulic systems: systems for active roll stabilization in luxury vehicles and sports cars

Pneumatic trolleys

Level control valves regulate the pressure in the springs and ensure that the trolley height remains constant regardless of the load. Vehicles that are optimally positioned on the road at all times offer greater driving safety and driving dynamics on any surface.

High-performance valves and blocks for the air suspension with integrated pressure sensor for the suspension are characterized by compact design, robustness and an improved coil system.

Automotive supplier

As a partner to the international automotive industry, we support and supply vehicle manufacturers of the best-known and most popular premium and luxury brands, as well as Tier 1 suppliers.

Good to know

The development of the past 1-2 decades in the automobile and especially in the chassis sector has been characterized by the introduction of active mechatronic systems. They replace the previously passive mechanical components.
