Why ETS for Emergency & Recovery vehicles?
Smaller turning circle at hard-to-reach locations
ETS reduces the turning circle of emergency and recovery vehicles, improving their manoeuvrability and positioning accuracy.
Stable at high speed
ETS’s speed-dependent steering provides maximum manoeuvrability at low speeds and stable, predictable handling at high speeds.
Standalone system integration
ETS is independent of the front-axle steering system and can be integrated flexibly without modifying the existing steering architecture.
Ontwikkeld voor zware hulpdiensttoepassingen
ETS ondersteunt stuurhoeken tot 45° en is ontwikkeld voor voertuigconfiguraties met hoge aslasten en zware operationele belastingen.

Safety, efficiency and configuration
Less tyre wear
The Ackermann steering principle minimises tyre wear and maintenance costs by reducing lateral tyre slip.
ASIL-C certified in accordance with ISO 26262
The ASIL-C safety concept features a dual-circuit cylinder and active centring to ensure predictable handling, even in the event of a system failure.
80% standard, 20% tailored to your vehicle
ETS offers a standardised approach that can be customised to suit vehicle configuration, axle load profile, and operational deployment.

Interested in ETS for your vehicles?
Our specialists work with you to look at the vehicle platform, axle-load profile, available installation space, required steering angle and operating conditions. On that basis, we determine which configuration best fits your application. This may concern a new fire service platform, an ambulance chassis, a heavy recovery vehicle or a specialist off-road configuration.
