Our card friends are probably only familiar with the trailer axle brands Fuhua and BPW, but some people say that BPW axle is good, others say Fuhua axle is good, so how can we distinguish whether a axle is good or not? Next, Darong axle Xiaobian comes to card friends for analysis.

First of all, let's look at Fuhua axle. Fuhua axle is an enterprise in Guangdong Province. It was founded in 1997. We only know that Fuhua produces trailer axles. In fact, we don't know that Fuhua also produces drive axles and containers, including single-stage deceleration bridges and wheel side deceleration bridges. Fuhua also produces drive axles for engineering vehicles, ranging from 16 tons to 100 tons, Various types of containers from 10 feet to 50 feet are produced, and Fuhua's product line is very rich.

Brand positioning: a global manufacturer of commercial vehicle axles and containers, brand vision: to become a globally trusted manufacturing enterprise with unique value and creativity.

Fuhua's main flagship product is its trailer axle. The trailer axle is divided into two brands, one is Fuhua and the other is wosheng. Fuhua focuses on the domestic market. Its design structure comes from American axle, so it is also called American axle, which is the ceiling of domestic American axle enterprises. Valx axle is a high-end brand of Fuhua group. It focuses on the European market. It is estimated that it wants to compete with BPW for the European market. The manufacturing technology of some high-end axles of Fuhua group is given priority to the valx axle, and then the technology on the valx axle will be slowly transferred to Fuhua axle, so as to highlight the cost performance.

At present, Fuhua axle mainly has two types of axles, one is drum axle and the other is disc axle. Drum axle has various tonnage axles ranging from 11 tons to 20 tons. Now F50 series maintenance free axle has been launched, and its maintenance cycle can reach 500000 km.

The axle body of Fuhua axle is made of integrated seamless steel pipe. Its overall torsional and bending resistance of the axle is very strong. The axle heads of American axle are all straight design, simple structure and can be used for heavy-duty goods.

Fuhua axle price: according to the 13 ton axle with large market demand, its price is between 4000-5000. If you want to add configurations, such as ABS system, automatic adjusting arm, increasing length, etc., you need to calculate the installation cost separately.

Let's take another look at BPW axle. BPW axle is a German joint venture, established in 1995. It is a Sino foreign joint venture controlled by German BPW company. It mainly produces and operates BPW rigid suspension axle, air suspension axle and axle related parts of various specifications and models. Founded in 1898, BPW in Germany is a manufacturer of semi-trailer axles with a history of more than 100 years, so BPW has a strong technical reserve.

At present, there are two main types of axles in BPW. One is the axle commonly used by everyone, and the other is the maintenance free series axle. The axles commonly used are very familiar. There are axles of various tonnage and lightweight design, which are about 30kg lighter than other brand axles of the same tonnage. If a set of axles comes down, the weight of the whole vehicle will be reduced by nearly 100kg. At the same time, it can also reduce vehicle fuel consumption and increase cargo load. There are two categories of maintenance free axles, one is 400k series and the other is 800K series. The maintenance cycle reaches 400000 km and 800000 km respectively. Of course, the price is more expensive.

It is now understood that the same 13 ton ordinary axle is about 2000 more expensive than Fuhua axle, and the price is 6000-7000 yuan..

BPW axle has a good reputation in the eyes of card friends, but there are also various problems with BPW axle bought by card friends. For example, some will grind the spring, some will grind the axle, all kinds of problems.

However, how to select the axle is a technical problem. Everyone says that the American Fuhua axle has good heavy-duty performance, but the braking is not very good. They say that the BPW braking effect is good, but the heavy-duty performance is not good. Therefore, the specific choice depends on the vehicle use of card friends. If it is a long-distance standard load, BPW bridge is recommended. If it is a short-distance heavy load, Fuhua bridge is recommended.

Apart from the above two axles, is there no other axle that can be used? Of course not. As like as two peas of the American car axle, the axle structure design, axle material and technical parameters are almost the same as Fuhua axle. The axle fittings can be used and the heavy load performance is not lost to Fuhua bridge.

Founded in 2001, Darong axle is a global R & D manufacturer of commercial axles and parts. It has been deeply engaged in the industry for more than 20 years. The company has more than 90 patented technologies, including Trailer optical axis, axle assembly, special axle and trailer parts. It has won ISO9001:2008 quality management system certification and has been rated as a high-tech enterprise in Shandong Province. It has 32000 ㎡ standardized workshop and laid the industry-leading automatic intelligent production line. The axle is manufactured through more than ten processes to ensure the strength, hardness and toughness of the axle body, so as to lay a foundation for improving the heavy load capacity of the axle.

The price of Darong axle is much cheaper than that of Fuhua axle, which is the same American axle. Taking the 13 ton drum axle as an example, each Darong axle is between 3000-4000 yuan, while Fuhua axle is about 4000-6000 yuan.

The axle is the most important part of a trailer. Whether the lightweight or durable upgrading of the trailer is inseparable from the optimization of the axle. Choosing a good axle is the basis for choosing a trailer. We should choose the appropriate axle according to the purpose of our vehicle.
