VSE STEERING FOR HEAVY TRANSPORT

THE STEERING SYSTEM FOR MAXIMUM MANOEUVRABILITY

Operational efficiency

Industrial estates and private properties are often difficult to reach. In many cases little thought has been given to long, heavy vehicles. Nevertheless, these must be reached, often with a heavy load.

VSE Steering systems are very suitable for manoeuvring vehicles such as low loaders in tight spaces, and works whether a trailer is retracted or extended. In fact, the VSE system can automatically adjust the steering angles when the trailer is extended. This is unique, as it is only possible with VSE Steering!

Manoeuvring takes time, and time is money! VSE Steering can increase the operational efficiency of a trailer by up to 30%.

PARALLEL STEERING

The VSE wireless remote control allows the wheels to be steered in parallel, even at a standstill. ‘Parallel’ means that all the steered axles are at the same steering angle. This is only possible with VSE! This allows you to get to hard-to-reach locations, with a low loader for example.

COST SAVINGS

Transporting heavy cargo takes a lot of energy. Many transport companies are aware of this and try to equip their truck with the latest sustainable technologies.

Because VSE Steering does not use heavy turntables and there is no steering wedge present, which produces a lot of resistance during steering, significant fuel savings can be achieved: up to €6,000!

INSTALLATION HEIGHT

All other steering systems require a turntable at the kingpin. This comes at the cost of the load height. VSE Steering does not require any extra height, so the load height can be maximally utilised.

Example: The neck of a low loader or semi low loader can have the same height as that of a trailer with rigid axles.
