What are the differences between air suspension and conventional suspension?
1 Answers
Here are the differences between air suspension and conventional suspension: 1. Principle: Conventional suspension uses a large number of sensors to continuously monitor road conditions and analyze driver operations such as braking, steering, and acceleration. Air suspension: Based on different road conditions and signals from distance sensors, the vehicle's computer determines changes in body height, then controls the air compressor and exhaust valves to automatically compress or extend the springs, thereby lowering or raising the chassis ground clearance to enhance high-speed stability or off-road capability. 2. Function: The role of conventional suspension is to manually or automatically adjust the suspension height/stiffness to adapt to different road conditions. Air suspension lowers or raises the chassis ground clearance to improve high-speed stability or off-road capability. 3. Characteristics: Conventional suspension directly affects vehicle comfort and handling. Air suspension can reduce tire pressure to prevent skidding, while hydraulic suspension is suitable for high-speed driving, mountain roads, and river crossings, each having its own advantages.
