luftaffjedringer

Luftaffjedringer, often referred to as air suspension, is a type of automotive suspension that uses an air spring instead of a traditional coil spring. An air spring consists of a flexible rubber or polyurethane bladder that is filled with compressed air. This air acts as the spring, absorbing shocks and vibrations from the road. The system typically includes an air compressor, an air reservoir, height sensors, and control valves.

The primary advantage of luftaffjedringer is its ability to adjust the ride height and stiffness of the vehicle. This can be achieved by increasing or decreasing the amount of air in the air springs. For example, the vehicle's ride height can be lowered for improved aerodynamics at highway speeds or raised to provide extra ground clearance for rough terrain. The stiffness can also be adjusted, offering a softer ride for comfort or a firmer setting for better handling. Many systems allow for automatic adjustment based on driving conditions or driver input.

Luftaffjedringer is commonly found in luxury vehicles, trucks, and buses. In commercial vehicles, it can help to reduce wear and tear on the cargo and improve fuel efficiency by maintaining a consistent ride height regardless of load. In passenger cars, it contributes to a more refined and comfortable driving experience. The technology has evolved significantly, offering improved reliability and performance.
