The air suspension also needs to be used in the right condition

In recent years, the heat of air suspension continues to rise, especially the blessing of regulations, so that this legendary "high-end accessories" are more and more widely used in the field of freight transport. Different from the traditional spring, the air suspension uses an air spring to support the body through the pressure of the gas, so it has many advantages that the spring suspension can not reach.

The advantages of air suspension inventory


1. Lighter self weight


Air suspension adopts compressed gas as elastic medium, which has obvious advantages in weight compared with traditional steel structure. The lighter weight of the vehicle means that more cargo can be loaded, and fuel economy can be improved to reduce the cost of comprehensive vehicles.


2, good shock absorption effect


The compressed air isolation effect is better than the plate spring, can greatly absorb the bumps and shocks from the road, can improve the driving comfort, but also can enhance the protection of the goods, can ensure as far as possible the height of the cargo constant, reduce or avoid the cargo damage caused by bumps.


3, the height can be freely adjusted


The air suspension can realize the lifting of a single bridge or a whole vehicle, and can lift the single bridge when the vehicle is empty, reduce tire loss and save fuel; When the vehicle is loaded on different cargo platforms, the air suspension can adjust the height of the body to match different cargo platforms, making it easier to load and unload goods.


4, reduce tire wear


The connection between the air suspension and the wheel and the frame is a soft connection. When the vehicle encounters poor road conditions, the fit degree of the tire and the road surface is softer, which is more conducive to reducing tire wear and saving the cost of tire replacement.


5. Protect chassis parts


The impact and turbulence from the road surface are small, the loosening of fasteners on the chassis of the vehicle is also greatly reduced, and the service life of chassis components can also be extended to a certain extent.

It can be said that the air suspension almost meets all the requirements of the owner for lightweight, reliability, smoothness, cost reduction and efficiency, and many owners who have used the air suspension have praised it, and even directly called it "transportation artifact".


It is true that the air suspension in dangerous chemicals, flowers, fruits and vegetables, cold chain goods, electronic instruments, express express, fragile fragile and other transportation does play an extremely good role, but if it is therefore regarded as a "transport artifact", it is somewhat biased color, after all, any practice that puts aside the actual use of conditions to talk about performance is meaningless, and air suspension is not without shortcomings.


Compared with the traditional spring suspension, the air suspension is not dominant in strength, durability, resilience and load-bearing, although many manufacturers are also promoting the air suspension can be used in the transportation field of coal, gravel, wood, steel coil, etc., but these goods can be crushed in the transportation process even the asphalt road, and the air bag of the air suspension can bear how much? Especially when it is necessary to climb, downhill, and cross potholes, is the air suspension fully competent? I am afraid that this is not only a "can be applicable" can be convinced by the public, but also the actual use of the market data to speak.

Therefore, the air suspension is easy to use, but the premise is to be combined with the actual use conditions, if often run heavy loads or poor road conditions, the transport of goods on the cargo damage without requirements or requirements are not high, then the ordinary leaf spring suspension is enough, the price is cheap.


Of course, the technical level of vehicles and accessories has developed rapidly, and under the continuous improvement and improvement, the air suspension may gradually overcome its own shortcomings. In addition, in recent years, the relevant departments of the promotion of air suspension is relatively large, the control of overload and over-limit is also increasing, when the overload and over-limit exit the historical stage, whether the air suspension can fully occupy the use of spring suspension space, I am afraid it also needs to wait and see.
