Hydropneumatic suspension for stability, comfort and low operating costs

Heavy off-road vehicles, ranging from dump lorries in open-cast mines to construction vehicles, are used in extremely demanding conditions. The chassis is put under great strain by heavy loads, thousands of cycles a year on rough haul roads, deep potholes, undulations and steep gradients. HPS is a hydropneumatic suspension system that combines stable vehicle behaviour, predictable ride comfort and a compact system design. The system is suitable for a wide range of off-road applications.

Why choose HPS for off-road?

Greater ride comfort on rough terrain
Compared to conventional air or leaf suspension, HPS dampens load fluctuations and whole-body vibration more effectively, thereby improving comfort, safety and operational availability.

Compact integration, greater design freedom
HPS’s compact system architecture improves the flexibility of packaging and design across a wide range of off-road vehicle platforms.

Integrated level control for changing terrain
HPS automatically adjusts the ride height in response to changes in load, helping to ensure stable vehicle behaviour and optimal traction and grip across a range of terrain conditions.
