First prototype SEM Double Rod steering system installed
At the beginning of February, we installed the first prototype of the SEM Double Rod steering system. The SEM DR offers the solution to optimally maneuver the trailer, even with a heavy load. With the SEM DR, 2 of the 3 axles of the trailer can be steered.
At the beginning of February, we installed the first prototype of the SEM Double Rod at our customer Heinrich Wellmeyer Fahrzeugbau GmbH & Co. KG. Especially for heavy duty work, such as ballast trailers, construction vehicles and tippers, the SEM DR offers the solution to optimally maneuver the trailer, even with a heavy load. With the SEM DR, 2 of the 3 axles of the trailer are steered.
SEM DR
The SEM DR is ideally suited for heavy transport. This places special demands on a steering system because the axles must be able to steer with high axle loads, whether on uneven terrain or not. By using the double rod, the system has enough power to steer the axles under heavy conditions.
Easy and quick installation
Our service engineer worked with the Wellmeyer team to perform the initial installation. The Wellmeyer constructors noticed that the system was very easy and quick to install. An important advantage of SEM DR is that the control rods are supplied in three parts. This makes the system more manageable and it greatly simplifies logistics and installation.
The Wellmeyer trailer was built on special request and will be equipped with a crane and a tipper.
