Hendrickson launches new HMX-V rubber suspension

Recently, Hendrickson (China) held a press conference on the launch of new rubber suspensions in Shanghai during the 16th Shanghai International Auto Show. With the theme of "Innovation, Never Ending", the conference was a grand introduction to Henderson's new generation of lighter-weight HMX-V rubber suspensions for mid-to-heavy vehicles. The goal is to target China's light-weight standard road transport market. !

As a global leader in commercial vehicle suspension technology and market, Hendrickson has been known for its innovative suspension technology and high reliability product quality! Especially with the continuous transformation of the global commercial vehicle industry, Hendrickson is A series of innovative lightweight suspension systems developed and manufactured in heavy-duty trucks , trailers and passenger cars have set new standards for commercial vehicle suspension systems worldwide in terms of energy efficiency, operational safety and reliability. .

Hendrickson: Leader in Rubber Suspension Technology

In the past more than 30 years, the application of rubber suspensions in the global trucking industry has steadily improved, including the field of heavy commercial vehicles that are driven in very harsh environments. Founded in 1913, Hendrickson began to invent the world's first balanced beam suspension system in 1926 and has been at the forefront of commercial vehicle suspension technology and markets worldwide. In well-developed regions such as North America, Hendrickson firmly occupies more than 70% of the market share of commercial vehicle suspension systems thanks to its abundant suspension products.

In China, when rubber suspensions are mentioned, people will think of Hendrickson with the brunt of it!

This is due to the fact that Hendrickson entered the Chinese market in 2009 and has established a close strategic cooperation with China National Heavy Duty Truck Group. In response to China's road conditions and special market demands, HUV rubber suspension system was specially developed for Replace the traditional leaf spring market. After more than four years of product promotion, Hendrickson successfully introduced the “rubber suspension” new product into China, and achieved more than 13,000 sets of assembly volume. The advantages of lightweight, maintenance-free and high comfort of rubber suspensions have also been recognized by more and more end-users.

More importantly, with the continuous promotion of the concept and application of “rubber suspension”, mainstream heavy-duty truck OEMs in China have actively thrown olive branches to Hendrickson and hope to use Hendrickson's advanced suspension technology. Further improve the differentiation and competitiveness of heavy truck products. It can be said that Hendrickson's technical advantage in rubber suspension is currently unmatched by any of its competitors.

Lightweight advantage is more obvious, HMX-V brings higher value

In fact, HMX-V evolved from the already well-established HMX product in the Hendrickson North American market. Up to now, in the North American market, over 82,000 HMX products have been widely used in dump trucks, garbage trucks, mixers, heavy-duty trucks, fire engines, ambulances and other special vehicles. It is a very reliable and abundant market application. Experienced and mature products.

The HMX-V is a lightweight heavy-duty rubber suspension system developed specifically for the application of the growing Chinese road transport market. The HMX-V has a design load capacity of 21 tons and a dead weight of only 390KG, which is further reduced by 100 KG (HUV design load capacity is 34 tons) than the HUD Rubber Suspension currently promoted by Hendrickson in China. As a result, the HMX-V has a weight reduction of up to 290KG compared to conventional leaf springs of the same tonnage, making it the world's lightest 21-ton engineering application rubber suspension system.

The HMX-V rubber suspension design achieves a perfect balance between light weight and driving comfort, provides excellent running stability in both empty and load situations, and increases stability as the load increases, increasing the The protection of the equipment extends the service life of the equipment.

In addition, the HMX-V provides outstanding operational stability while its low-maintenance design concept offers customers lower product life cycle costs. Compared to other rubber suspension systems, the HMX-V eliminates the center liner through a unique design, thereby reducing the cost of post-bushing maintenance and replacement; in addition, its non-lubricated, maintenance-free features are also It saves a lot of labor and time costs for routine maintenance.

Aiming at light weight standard transportation, the market development prospects

In recent years, with rising energy and transportation costs, the state has punished the strengthening of overweight and overloading, and highway toll-gathering charges have been fully launched. More and more users and logistics and transport companies are beginning to realize the unsustainability of overloading. And to the standard to be effective. According to data, the automobile body accounts for about 30% of the total weight of the car. Under no-load conditions, about 70% of the fuel consumption is spent on the body weight. For every 100 kilograms of vehicle weight, 0.6 liters per 100 kilometers can be saved. If the vehicle's vehicle weight is reduced by 10%, the fuel efficiency can be increased by 6%-8%. Therefore, users put forward higher requirements for lighter weight and economical efficiency of heavy trucks, and hope to increase transport efficiency and fuel economy through light weight.

Under such circumstances, major domestic heavy truck OEMs are also vigorously developing lightweight heavy truck products. They hope to provide users with lighter heavy trucks through reliable lightweight assembly or technology, thereby further enhancing the market competitiveness of products.

As a trailblazer and leader in the rubber suspension market, Rui Ruisen has always kept a keen preview of the market's development trend and demand. The further subdivision and specialization of the heavy truck market also provided Hendrickson with a good opportunity to expand the rubber suspension market and achieve product diversification. The target of the HMX-V rubber suspension product launched by Hendrickson is also very clear. It is specifically targeted at the increasingly demanding road transport market with a higher weight requirement.

According to a new version of the National Highway Network Plan announced recently by the National Development and Reform Commission, by the end of 2012, China's national highways have reached 173,000 kilometers, of which national highways have reached 68,000 kilometers. And this scale is rapidly expanding. "Planning" pointed out that by 2030, the national highway will reach 118,000 kilometers.

With the rapid development of national highways, the overall technical level of China's highways will be significantly improved. Coupled with the country’s strong support for logistics and transport companies in recent years, Hundredson believes that China’s mid- to long-range standard-type road transport market is bound to usher in a golden period of rapid development. In this market, the demand for lighter weight and comfort will be higher. Therefore, the launch of HMX-V rubber suspension with lighter weight and lower maintenance cost will certainly bring more benefits to China's heavy truck OEMs, transportation fleets and end users, and provide higher value.

There is no doubt that China has become one of Hendrickson's most important global strategic markets. After the completion of the adaptation and preparation of the Chinese market, Hendrickson has significantly accelerated its pace of development in China. In 2010, Hundredsen launched a lightweight HUV rubber suspension product for the heavy truck market; by 2012, HCA trailer axle products will be made domestically; in 2013, Hundrison launched HSDS trailer air suspension products for the trailer market. Now, in the face of the increasingly light weight of the road transport market segment, Hendrickson has launched a more lightweight and more specialized series of HMX-V rubber suspensions. From the development track of Hendrickson in China in a short period of several years, it is not difficult to see that Hendrickson's development prospects in the Chinese market will be very promising due to the development trend of lighter weight in China's heavy trucks.
