For example, Volvo fh 16.
* EBS- electronic control braking system
* ESP- electronic stability program
* Z-type cam brake (optional)
* auxiliary braking, such as Volvo engine braking VEB.
Unparalleled braking system
The braking system includes EBS (Electronic Control Brake System) disc brake with ESP (Electronic Stability Program), and Z-cam brake is also optional.
Brake components such as VEB and retarder can greatly improve the braking effect.
EBS is an anti-lock disc braking system with electronically controlled braking effect. The disc brake is electronically controlled by the truck's own electronic system. This technology has many advantages.
Z cam drum brake is mainly used for trucks with leaf spring suspension.
* Compact reducer-Integrated with I-Shift or manual gearbox, it can continuously provide high braking torque even during gear shifting. The total braking effect of retarder depends on engine model and equipment, such as EPG/VEB.
* Final drive-integrated in Powertronic, it can continuously provide high braking torque even during gear shifting. The total braking effect of retarder depends on engine model and equipment, such as EPG/VEB.
Volvo engine brake VEB
Volvo's patented technology VEB can output excellent braking force and cover the whole speed range of the engine, but it can handle most braking situations.
