Easy steering is an absolute essential for manipulating a telescopic handler safely and efficiently. The simultaneous lifting, extending and tilting of the arm must take place swiftly and precisely. Here, finely metered braking movements are particularly vital. For only in this way can the workplace of the telescopic handler be a safe, comfortable environment.
In the LAG steering unit from Rexroth you have what is probably the most versatile steering system on the market. Its large number of variants enables it to be matched perfectly to the vehicle. Whether open-center or closed-center, with standard or special emergency steering functions – we have the right module for every possibility. All versions officially approved and successfully tested thousands of times. Optional Rexroth steering sensors on the steering column or on the steering unit reliably combine steering and electronics. And to ensure that legal requirements are met, very heavy telescopic handlers are additionally equipped with the A10VWO emergency steering pump or the EHP compact power unit.
The LT 31 inch brake valve which, like many other Rexroth power brake valves, has a proven track record and a modular, compact design, provides a smart combination of diesel-engine braking via the travel hydraulics and delay via the friction brake. When the brake pedal is pressed, the hydraulic pump reduces the flow rate from the travel drive. Braking thus takes place using the diesel engine’s support torque. Only if the pedal is pressed harder does the brake valve ensure that the mechanical friction brake is applied. A trailer-brake valve for actuating the trailer brake also forms part of the Rexroth range.
Advantages of hydraulic power-brake systems
- Supplied from the existing hydraulic system
- Brake system ready immediately when the diesel engine is started
- Highly sensitive regulation of the brakes, even in heavy machines
- Quick response time
- Space saving thanks to modular design
- Minimal pipework required due to compact design (pedal and all brake components combined in a single block)
