MOVE WITH US

Since 1947, we are a specialized manufacturer of axles and suspensions adapted for loads going from 5,5T to 20T.

We are commited to provide a solution for every project.

Fixed axles

Optimale distribution of loads and suspension movements

The fixed axle connects the wheels through a rigid housing. This distribution helps better distribute the load and suspension movements, as they act simultaneously on both sides of the axle.

Stub Axles

Enhanced Clearance for Special Vehicles

The stub axle is paired with an individual suspension on one side of the vehicle. The absence of an axle housing provides additional clearance, making it ideal for special vehicles.

Self steering axles

Enhanced Maneuverability for Long Vehicles

The self steering axle significantly increases the maneuverability of long vehicles, especially when they are equipped with a front axle lift.

Steering Axles

Driver Control for Reverse Maneuvers

The steering axle offers the same economic benefits as the following axle but primarily allows the driver to have full control over the trailer, especially during reverse maneuvers.

Pendular axles

Optimal Ground Contact for Heavy-Duty Vehicles

The pendular axle ensures optimal transversal contact with the ground at all times. It is the ideal solution for heavy-duty vehicles operating on very uneven terrain, as well as for transporting tall loads that require a very low loading floor. It also allows for independent left/right steering angles when combined with the suspension system.

Special axles

Tailor-Made Axle Solutions for Your Specific Needs

In addition to our range of standard axles, and thanks to our various skills, we are able to offer you a tailor-made product, fully adapted to your needs.

Bogies

Designed for Heavy Loads in Extreme Conditions

The bogie is specially designed for extreme conditions. This robust suspension allows the transport of heavy loads both on the road and off-road.

Motorized Axles

On-Demand All-Wheel-Drive for Challenging Conditions

The motorized axle provides on-demand all-wheel-drive assistance for vehicles operating in challenging conditions such as mud, snow, or steep slopes. This system also ensures good safety during steep descents through hydraulic assistance retention or by preventing sliding off the side of an unstable road.
