Heavy-duty Bushing
ContiTech has developed a heavyduty
bushing
for
Volvo
Construction Equipment (Volvo
CE) which can be used in
challenging applications. Mounted
on the rear axle, it ensures optimum
damping in articulated haulers
of the full-suspension (FS) type.
Volvo CE approached ContiTech
Vibration Control in order to substantially reduce maintenance
work on this component. ContiTech Vibration Control acted as an
engineering partner and assisted Volvo CE in developing a bushing
with a much longer life.
