    PROJECT Rough circumstancesThis sub-assembly makes sure that the trailers can transport heavy duty

    equipment in diverse environments in a stable manner. As the vehicles are used worldwide, temperatures range from freezing tundras to scorching deserts with roads differing from highways to debris rich provincial roads.The purpose of redesign is to develop a casting, a rocker arm, that has a cost reduction in respect to the current welded component, while keeping the performance and other parameters equal or better.

    Weight reductionFrom 53 kg in S690MC to 44 kg in ADI
