THE NEW ADR AXLES
BLACK BULL
Guarantee travelling speed, flexible use, duration and reduced maintenance are the basic goals behind development of the new Black Bull trailer axle series.
The results were reached after two years study, experimentation,
all-round tests on materials, production methods and with millions of euros invested.
One of the main characteristics of the new Black Bull series is the reduction in axle body weight by over 50%, obtained by replacing the traditional billet with a high resistance tubular profile, made in high elastic limit steel ideal for both industrial and agricultural use.
This does not just mean greater resistance to use conditions, but also less weight and a greater axle body section, thus more useful load for the vehicle and better behaving suspensions due to a lighter non suspended mass.
Automatic spindle welding on the Black Bull body is the result of a study developed in the ADR research department in collaboration with the study centres of the main steelworks and expert welders. The pressing system, an ADR original, has enabled us to create a spindle that can guarantee perfect jointing with the tubular part, thus precise, long-lasting welding, no stress discontinuity and an excellent weight-resistance ratio.
The new Black Bull trailer axle series for all uses from agricultural to industrial and a speed range going from 20 to over 100 km/h.
BlackBull means great performance
Weight REDUCTION, RIGOROUS tests on materials and welds, and innovative PRODUCTION PROCESSES have combined to give better PERFORMANCEto be exact:
Ø Traveling speed from 20 up to 100km/h and OVER
Ø Increased CARRYING CAPACITY means better fuel economy and reduced working times
Ø Higher safety margins
Ø Greater DURABILITY of all components
Ø Reduced MAINTENANCE
Ø Better BRAKING
Ø Always accurate and sensitive AUTO-STEERING SYSTEM
Ø Greater flexibility compared to traditional materials for LESS STRESS to the suspension in the event of knocks or uneven terrain
Ø OTHER COMPONENTS can be assembled to the axle in COMPLETE SAFETY
