European-style semi-trailer air suspension and American-style air suspension are the two most commonly used air suspensions. What is the difference between these two products? Here is a comparison and analysis for you:
The difference between the air suspension of the two semi-trailers is mainly in the structure of the airbag guide arm (load-bearing beam, suspension arm) and the front bracket. European-style guide arms generally use cast leaf springs, while American-style guide arms are stamped and welded from steel plates. In addition, the front bracket of the American suspension is smaller than the European suspension.
The guide arm (load-bearing beam, suspension arm) of the European airbag suspension is one or more leaf springs, and the guide arm is made of casting. Because the guide arm is a leaf spring, it can play a certain buffering role during driving, and can achieve a certain shock absorption compared with the American suspension.
The American suspension guide arm is made of steel stamping and welding. In theory, the weight of the American suspension guide arm will be lighter. The use of stamping and welding guide arms has a great relationship with the small load capacity of American vehicles. Compared with the European suspension, the guide arm of the air suspension of the American semi-trailer is rigidly connected.
Both types of semi-trailer air suspension are used by domestic users. It can be said that the two types of suspension have their own advantages and disadvantages. As for the choice, it depends on your own needs. Equipping with semi-trailer air suspension is a wise choice from the perspective of safety and long-term benefits.
